Great communication & explaining MRI & possible surgery
Very friendly and offered excellent advice for my lower back problems.
He listened to my problem & very thorough explaining the cause of the issue & treatment options. I would recommend him
He explained verthing
Very courteous, explain everything to me to understand it and very professional
Wonderful bedside manner. Answered my questions vaguely and I felt rushed. It was my pre open appt and it lasted less than 10 minutes.
Really like his care and how he listens to my concerns.
Knowledgeable, office was quick. He was quick too, but I think it’s because he needs to know more from MRI first. Hope he treats me a little more caring once we discuss future options.
Dr. Larson is kind and caring. I have appreciated his excellent "bedside manner" throughout my medical experience with him.
Explained and answered all questions that I had
