He took the time to explain the structure of my knee and the problem I was experiencing. I felt like I could ask questions and received complete answers.
Very professional, friendly and listens to the patient.
Excellent and kind bedside manner.
Pleasant, professional and informative. If I have to have a shoulder replacement I would choose him to do it.
Very courteous and efficient. Not vary warm or caring
Dr. Abiildgaard is so easy to talk with and comes across very honest and informative. I will always highly recommend him.
Dr Abildgaard is very professional and a good communicator.
I feel very fortunate to have had Dr Abildgaard as my surgeon. What a total professional from top to bottom. In a few seconds you can tell this guy has a drive to offer the best care. Thank you so much to you and your team! Daryl
Dr. Abildgaard was extremely professional and kind during my visit with him. I really appreciated his honesty as far the cost of specific treatments. However, the only thing I was not 100% happy with was the minimal aftercare instructions I was given following injections. It would have been nice to know a bit more about what the following days would look like after getting that procedure done. Overall, I was happy with the treatment he provided though.
I had a good visit with Dr. Abildgaard. He showed me the X-rays and told me what could help. He’s a very nice person.
