I adore Dr. Janet Ryan because she is clear and practical and confidence building in her approach to patient communication.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 8/27/2026
Dr. Ryan listened to my questions and concerns and was very thorough in her explanations and together we crafted a plan for continued monitoring going forward. I left feeling confident about the plan and felt like my time was very well spent. I never felt rushed or dismissed.

Dr Ryan was great as was her nurse. It is unfortunate it took 8 weeks for me to get an appointment with her.

Great appointment. Didn't feel rushed. Very thorough.

I waited for 50 minutes before the doctor came in. I was reading a magazine and didn't realize so much time had passed. I was going to push the yellow button because clearly over 20 minutes had passed. Then she came in. I had another appointment to get to so this wait set me back. This was the only negative.

Dr. Ryan spent a lot of time with me and explained everything clearly. She was able to accommodate a request about my BP meds to make it easier to travel and do social activities without compromising my health. I am very impressed with her depth of knowledge about many aspects of medicine and deeply appreciated her listening to my questions and concerns. The rest of the staff was very nice and very helpful also!

Dr. Ryan is the provider I had always wanted. Listens well; offers explanation and suggestion.
- 3 out of 5 starsReviewed on 2/26/2026
I waited over an hour to see a doctor which wasn't Dr. Ryan and then Dr. Ryan came in 10 minutes later which was maybe an hour and ten minutes. I sat in the room for over an hour and I'm not happy.

it was very good

I had many procedures and a surgery in the Gundersen Hospital, LaCrosse, last summer, and even though my appointments were excellent in every way, except one, it was like being "Back Home Again" to be in the Decorah Clinic with the Staff and Dr. Ryan. This feeling of confidence in Staff and Doctors means so much to anyone when they are hurting and need guidance, understanding, and correct diagnosis. You have a Responsible, Caring, Hard Working, and Intelligent Clinic Staff, Doctors, Nurses, Cleaners. The only disappointment I have is with the technology Emplify placed in its hospitals and clinics, it is not the fault of the Decorah Clinic. Before the change I was able to use the MyChart well, to an older person who is not skilled with technology, the change is very unpleasant. New vocabulary is NOT easy to understand when one is not in the social world any more. Retirement does not allow, someone like me, to learn new vocabulary and then efficiently operate it. There are many retired people who love technology and manipulate it well, but those of us who have difficulty with it are left behind to struggle at its use. Everyone is supporting the new world, which has to be done. Thank you for listening.

I could deal with the repetitive acknowledgement of my current medications (on-line, then when speaking with nurse), then reviewing where the system flagged my high cholesterol (Hah! mostly good LDL), so I am very pleased with our discussion and response to a mole on my head that I could not see clearly. Thank You!

Dr. Ryan is the very best! I am so lucky to have had her as my main doctor for almost 30 years.

Dr Janet Ryan is the BEST! It was my first time seeing her since my husband passed away. She showed me so much empathy and kindness. Dr Ryan truly cares about her patients' overall health, both physical and mental. She is an amazing, caring physician!

The appointment was an hour late after the scheduled time! I probably won't again choose a late afternoon appointment time!!
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 9/26/2025
Dr. Ryan is a very pleasant person, and even though I know she's extremely busy, she takes her time and spends it with me when I come in, and I appreciate that.
