Worst Experience ~ EVER
I had gestational diabetes and was sent to Dr. Fehrenkamp by my OB. I waited 3 hours past my scheduled appointment to get back to a room, and this is normal for every patient on every visit.

Personable Doctor!
Ok, so Dr. Fehrenkamp is kind of quirky, but he is very personable. The first time I went to him was on 9/6 and I didn't have to wait forever to see him. He was very thorough and spent a lot of time discussing my medical issues with me. I liked him!

EXCELLENT Doctor - HIGHLY Recommend!!!
Dr. Fehrenkamp is a wonderful doctor. He is very knowledgeable and spends plenty of time answering my questions and explaining things to me. I did have to wait quite awhile in the waiting room before seeing him every time I went, but he makes up for it by being very thorough during my appointments and I always leave there feeling like my questions have been answered and I haven't been rushed. He's also got a good personality, I highly recommend him. I do suggest bringing a couple of magazines or a book to pass the time and leave the kids at home :)

Best Diabetes Doc in Austin
Dr. Blevens has done a wonderful job of marketing himself to other physicians as the 'best diabetes doctor in Austin'; therefore they nearly all recommend him. However, I have been to both Blevins and Fehrenkamp and there is absolutely NO comparison. First of all, Blevins won't usually see you himself-- he almost always delegates to a Physicians' Assistant, and her remedies are straight out of the textbook (no customization for the patient). Fehrenkamp not only sees you personally, but takes all the time necessary and really, really knows his stuff. He will constantly adjust your meds to make them work properly for YOU. And...maybe most importantly, he really CARES about his patients MORE than the money! Don't let his handicap fool you-- this guy is a genius when it comes to diabetes treatment!

Worst Endo in Austin!
Dr. Fehrenkamp is the worst Endo in the city. He changed my wife's calcium med to a higher dose just from saying she has been low for a while. Well a few weeks later she is in the ER with a very dangerous calcium level and almost in a coma. The ER doctor paged & called him on Saturday night and Dr. Fehrenkamp just never called. Dr. Fehrenkamp did not ever call and we were in the hospital until Monday afternoon. When my wife called Dr. F on Monday they said they never received a call or page. Sort of funny when my wife gave the ER Dr the same number she calls Dr. F on??? When my wife did speak with admin at Dr. F's they were rude and said they never received a call. Even after all that, Dr. F never called to see if his patient was ok or allright or anything. He did nothing. The admin staff was rude and short on the phone too. He has a few good Physician's Assistants is about the only good thing. The rest of his staff has the bedside manor of a pimp. Do not go to this Dr.

Did not have the experience these reviews mention
I recently switched to Dr. Fehrenkamp and I did not experience a wait in the waiting room. He spent a lot of time talking to me about current medicine and reviewing the records I provided for him. I feel very confident in what he has recommended. I did encounter a less than pleasant girl on the phone when I called to make the appointment, but when I arrived they were all friendly and polite. Sorry that some of these people did not have that experience, but I liked himWorldwide > United States > Austin, TX > Doctors
