John Sager is always amazingly good. He is a bright light in the healthcare system. I think so highly of John that I donate money on his behalf to organizations like Jefferson Public Radio. Not that I want more people to see him. I just think he deserves extraordinary recognition for the quality work he does.

John Sager is an excellent Primary Care Physician!!
February 14, 2026
Dr. John Sager is a wonderful physician. He has been my doctor for over 20 yrs and I feel I am in excellent health because of his care and concern. He is extraordinary and I don't what I will ever do if he retires. I listen to my friends and family who NEVER see an MD and have no relationship with their doctor, IF they have one. I am blessed and lucky to have good insurance and John Sager, not in that order. He is up to breast on all medical issues and knows so much. There is never a question he cannot answer and his MA, Alex, is a jewel too. In this age of impersonal medicine and constant shifting of providers, my husband and I feel like we are receiving care from years ago. John Sager is a jewel and Asante should never ever let him go. He is an asset to asante as is Alex, his MA. I cannot praise John Sager any higher, he is THE BEST!!!!
