Patient Reviews
May 11, 2022
I have been lucky enough to be a patient of Dr. Olson’s for 20 years. I love he puts patients first. If you have to wait you will NEVER feel rushed. Hard to find a doc that listens, he does. He has visited my hospital room at 3a.m. When he ran late at the office but still wanted to be the one to make rounds for all his patients, even at different hospitals. Prayed with my family while I was on a respirator. Works around my needs. I developed status migrainous & for months I had a difficult time making sentences. I cried from the constant pain. He checked in with me by phone regularly until I could make it back in, the vitamins someone suggested he was “peddling” he GAVE those to me to help with brain health. I mean, felt bad for me, came by my home, dropped some with my husband. Never tried to get me to buy them. I did ask him a while later & got some for me & my husband because they helped so much. I could go on & on. He is truly compassionate, as is Carrie in the office. Love them!
