Reviews
Dr. Christensen is a wonderful doctor, whom have been seeing him for the past 5 years. On my initial visit he took all the time needed to explain everything to me, and was kind, compassionate, and patient. During my procedure he made sure to make me comfortable beforehand and explained the results afterwards. I was most impressed with him, which is saying quite a lot, as I have been in the medical field for 40 years. I have referred several patients to him, and each of them has been pleased with him.
Absolutely the best doc. Very supportive of veterans as well. He truly cares and all the nurses are very friendly as well.
Great
He’s great. Answers any and all questions and explains in detail. Very good bedside manner. Highly recommend Dr Christensen
Dr Christensen was personable and didn’t rush me. He answered all of my questions in a way I could understand. He entered the room prepared. He had obviously taken the time to study my chart and we talked about all of my gi problems. Together, we decided on a plan to proceed. I highly recommend him.
