Dr. John A. WANGSNESS

As a fellow physician I worked with John on many patients. He was well liked by all of my patients. When my mother-in-law, in her 80s, developed lung cancer I thought that it was terminal. But through his expertise she had radiation and gentle chemo and was cured! It was a bit of a miracle thanks to John. She lived several productive years after her cure. I wish that all of my consultants had been and knowledgeable and kind as he was.

As a primary care physician I referred patients to John from 1977 until I retired in 2016. Patients really liked him. He was a competent compassionate physician. He treated my mother in law for lung cancer at age 88 and she was cured! When I was getting chemo myself 4 years ago he sometimes dropped in the the infusion center to chat with me. I really appreciated that. I miss him.

Dr. Wangsness was a great doctor. He was always kind to all of his patients and co-workers. I worked with him for two years and I enjoyed it very much. He was always curious in what everyone was up too and took interest in people's lives. We will all miss him very deeply!

Sorry to hear about John. He was an excellent doctor. He found the right treatment for my bladder cancer. I have been cancer free now for 22 Years, and I owe it all to John. Thank you John.

I was a patient of John's for many years. He was a great Doctor and more importantly a better person. He always let you know how much he cared for you and your family as you went through the treatment process as well as the follow-up appointments over the years. I feel blessed that I had the opportunity to get to know him. I will miss smile and his his stories of Mary, his Daughters, and of course the dogs.

i am so saddened by the loss of a very caring and wonderful man you will be greatly missed Cindy D

John was one of my favorite client's to see at the animal hospital. He had a heart of gold and loved his pups dearly!!! We will miss him!
May God bless you and your family through this time of sorrow.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow. I was a patient of Dr.Wangsness and am thankful to have been treated by him.

As a physician I have referred patients to John beginning in 1977. I always received very good feedback from my patients about how much they liked him. He treated my mother-in-law 15 years ago for lung cancer when she was in her 80s. I thought she would not survive, but with John's care she was cured of what generally is a fatal cancer. She had 8 more years of a very full life thanks to John. When I had chemo myself in 2015 at the Maplewood Caner Center, John would often stop by to chat...
