“A friend of mine recommended Dr. Pfaffenbach and she really turned my world around. I have Crohn’s disease and other doctors had told me I wouldn’t be able to get pregnant. Dr. Pfaffenbach carefully monitored my Crohn’s disease, worked closely with my doctor in Milwaukee and personally called me numerous times throughout each of my four pregnancies. I always felt comfortable with her.”
