Patient Reviews
Dec 17, 2021
Dr. Olson removed my huge parathyroid tumor in 2018. His surgical skills were impeccable and I have a faint scar. Due to the size of the tumor, my vocal cords were impaired for a while, by no fault of his. He was extremely encouraging and followed up with my rapid progress and full recovery. He also helped me obtain further medical treatment for other health conditions I endured as a result of the parathyroid condition. I never felt rushed and felt he truly cared. His staff was also friendly and helpful.
