Excellent visit. Appreciate with Dr. Christensen how upfront he is and doesn’t try to hide anything. He was as pleasant as he always is when I had to see him in the past he was dead right with the diagnosis I am feeling so much better with the treatment he suggested for me with prednisone and as always would never hesitate to recommend him as a doctor

Getting in to see Dr. Christensen was quick and easy, even with my hectic schedule. I came in with a bump on my finger and he was quick to order an MRI and his office called me to schedule a follow up. It was comforting knowing he was who I saw for every appointment so he was familiar with my case before he does my surgery. I’m hoping the rest of the process goes well and I can get back to work soon!

Dr. Christensen did my carpal tunnel surgery on my right hand. I had no problems after surgery and was very pleased with the outcome. I just hurt my finger on my left hand and was happy to return to see Dr. Christensen. They got me right in, took me back to get X-rays and then Dr. Christensen came right in to see me. He explained the situation to me and offered a few options. I was very happy with both of my visits!!
“Highly recommend”

Staff very efficient, Dr Christensen listened and explained all options. He advised the least intrusive through all other options. Unlike most doctor visits, he did not request to see me again unless the initially prescribed treatment was not completely satisfactory. He requested I call him again if I needed him. Respectfully, RHS

Dr. Christensen listened to my concerns and he made feel very comfortable discussing them with him. He was very emphatic to my feelings and my care. Would most definitely refer him to others that may need an upper extremity Orthopaedic Specialist.
