Jennie B Hounshell

Dr. Hounshell is an exemplary physician  - very caring, committed and conscientious. She goes  out of her way  to deliver truly amazing care to  my aging, diabetic mother, who has a limited knowledge of English, and has developed early signs of dementia. Dr. Hounshell listens carefully, never losing patience even when my mother keeps repeating herself (a common problem with dementia)  and consults me when clarification are needed.  Dr. Hounshell always has a plan B. When my mom's traditional diabetes medication was having debilitating side effects, Dr. Hounshell  prescribed an effective alternative medicine, while withdrawing other medicines that were not needed.. Thanks to her thoughtful intervention, my mother's blood sugar is in good control. When needed, she also has cajoled  insurance company to approve a much needed  medicine or physical therapy. She is a great practitioner with an extensive repertoire of tools in her proverbial "physician's" bag.  Dr. Hounshell is always culturally sensitive. Respecting my mom's vegetarian diet, she even persuaded the senior center my mother frequently visits to add a healthy vegetarian option to their daily meal  plan Yes -.Dr. Hounshell, my mother and your mother are all right - eat your vegetables!  Hopefully, even committed  carnivores will eventually recognize the salutary benefits of adding  plant based proteins to their diet. Dr. Hounshell' template  of best practices  comprising of a healthy amalgam of intuition, compassion & data,  may be the solution to America's soaring health care costs, rapidly aging population and growing diversity.  Like a true leader, she inspires her support staff.  The UW clinic at Windsor/Deforest is a wellspring of empathy, kindness and professionalism with everyone from Lisa & Gloria at the front desk  to nurses like Amber, Crystal et al. performing  their part with aplomb.  (I apologize for the names not included). Due  to this all-round excellence, you  always leave with  an enhanced  sense of well-being after every visit.Â
