Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Very nice, knowledgeable, great with young kids

This provider did not disclose to me that I had a kidney stone lodged in my ureter. He was arrogant and dismissive of my pain. I knew I had serious infection and was headed towards sepsis and told him this (prior history). I was hospitalized elsewhere within 30 hours of discharge by Dr. Olsen with sepsis. I could have easily died. The urologist said he would have put me under anesthesia to place the stent 48 full hours before Dr. Olsen discharged me from the ER. My total time hospitalized was ne
