Reviews
Great bedside manners, very thorough and helpful.
Dr. Christenson and his staff were very professional. He was not only concerned about the condition I was seeing him about, but also my overall health problems. He listened to my all concerns and answered all questions with great explanations. I would certainly recommend Dr. Christenson to anyone needing a physician of his expertise.
Dr Christensen is a great doctor. He is very knowledgeable and he cares about his patients. If there is a health problem and if there is any way possible to help you, Dr. Christensen will locate and fix your health problem. He is one of the most understanding doctors that I have ever seen. Because of my many health problems, I cried in his office. He felt so sorry for me that he actually hugged me and he was so sorry about my pain and circumstances. He treated me like I was a member of his own family. I totally trust him to take care of me. I know that I am in good hands when I trust my care to Dr. Christensen.
Very professional and easy to talk too. Would highly recommend seeing him if you are having trouble swallowing food. Also did my colonoscopy, will be back in five years!
Dr. Christensen is an A1 doctor. He was thorough and put my mind at ease. His expertise is top notch.
