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.

I appreciated Dr. Olsen's attentive, respectful, and informative manner. He put me at ease and was very prompt in ordering testing and a prescription.

Dr Olson is such a reassuring presence. He provides study data and includes diagnostic intricacies specific to my medical history in his comprehensive consults. I always leave his office feeling well informed, heard and reassured. Dr Olson is a real asset to Providence Hood River's medical staff.

Dr. Olsen was patient with me as a patient; he was clear, cogent, and convincing in his diagnosis and his prognosis; he was personable. I am afraid that I was talking too much, but Dr. Olsen elicited the history of my chronic sinus problems with kind ease. I could not have been more impressed with his clinical knowledge and his practical advice.

I found Dr. Olsen to be personable, professional, and informative. He explored possibilities with me, instead of just telling me nothing can be done about my tinnitus. I will recommend him to others!

This was my first time seeing this provider. He went above and beyond my expectations. He was kind, respectful, communicated well with me, addressed my concerns and made that I was comfortable during the procedure. I was very impressed and had a really great feeling about the situation when I left!
