My husband was seriously ill in the hospital, in fact he wssas dying, and Dr. Pfundatein made it a point of calling to constantly follow his condition. She spoke consolingly to me on the telephone, which helped me handle the situation. After his death she helped me to handle the whole time of grief, as well as a family crisis. Her words kept me grounded, and that helped me to then do what… See more

This Doctor goes above and beyond taking care of her patients. She has been available 24/7! Calls are always returned. She has been there for me through two AFIB problems and I was very confident with her aid.
I have been a patient of Dr Pfundstein for only two years since relocating to Virginia from Tennessee and have found her to be an exemplary medical advisor and caregiver. My sister Nancy Pezold and I engaged her services at that time when my sister was in the last month of her life. Dr. Pfundstein treated her with such kindness, patience and care and helped us deal with her loss. Since then,… See more
Dr. Pfundstein has been a huge part of helping me overcome some recent health issues. Totally reliable and a true partner in my health care journey. I appreciate her!!
When all the world was green, friends,
And every sip was wine,
What need had I of doctors?
I knew not Joann Pfundstein.
Now all the world is brown, friends,
And the sip is raw moonshine,
And I bless the peerless medical skills,
Of the great Joann Pfundstein.
From a grateful patient.
Dr. Pfundstein encourages her patients to call her cellphone on weekends if they
feel they have a need to. She always answers quickly and graciously and sends in
prescriptions right away as needed.
I was a new patient of Dr. Joann Pfundstein when I got a terrible nosebleed around 7pm on a Saturday night. After an hour of trying to stop it, I called Dr. Pfundstein’s cell phone.
I was shocked when she answered immediately. She asked pertinent questions and told me to go to the emergency room. Her manner was warm, yet decisive. I knew then that I had made the right decision to join… See more
Last summer my husband and I were in Amsterdam getting ready to go on a riverboat cruise. As we were walking to the boat, I fell and injured my wrist. I spent the evening in the emergency room. The doctor said I would need to fly home immediately and have surgery. Thank goodness for Dr Pfundstein. I called her and she said she’d find an orthopedic surgeon to see me as soon as I returned home.… See more
I love Dr Pfundstein..she’s been a life saver. I have several specialists and she organizes all of them. I’m most appreciative that she took the time to call me about a test before the ordering doctor called me. She’s on top of everything....❤️
