DR. BARTELL

After 31 years practicing here in Madison, I have decided to "hang up my scalpel". It doesn't seem like three decades ago that I opened my practice as the "new kid on the block", but I think the time has come for me to start the third chapter of my life. I would like to spend more time volunteering, perhaps more time with my favorite hobbies (flying, reading), more time with my grand-sons, a little more traveling, and perhaps find a new passion... I have discovered that closing a surgical practice is not as easy as opening one. I will miss being able to care for my patients and occasionally change a life or two. I will miss the joy and challenges of surgery, and I will especially miss the close relationships I have enjoyed with my staff.
