Patient Reviews
May 24, 2024
Dr. Christensen changed my view on surgery. I have had some poor past experiences. Dr. Christiansen went above and beyond my expectations. He came in to do surgery on a day he didn’t even have too for me. I have had an umbilical hernia for 16 years and to have it fixed, I am thrilled. I had fears of waking up to large lap sites or big incisions. I had minimal lap sites and a new belly button after years of disliking my protruding belly button. He is a genuine man and kind next to being a top notch surgeon. I appreciate all he does for patients and what he has done for me. I would highly recommend to anyone I know and that says a lot because I do not trust easily. Thank you, I didn't even realize how much better it would feel to have this fixed. His office staff is personable and friendly and his office is inviting and a better feel than most. 10 out of 10 for Dr. Christensen and his wonderful team.
Thank you for sharing your feedback about Dr. Brian Christensen, MD.
