I have had great experiences with Dr. Abildgaard. He is top notch. I wish everyone in the healthcare field were as professional as he is.
He took time with me and explained everything to me.
Consultation was great!!Doctor listened to me with detail and did great overall
Knowledgeable, caring & very concise with over view of symptoms.
Very kind. Listened to me and gave multiple options.
Very good explanation of injury & MRI results. Went over options & next steps.
Listened to all my concerns and presented a plan to see how I wanted to move forward.
Unprofessional and misinformed regarding complex connective tissue disorders. During my appointment for a shoulder issue, this doctor took it upon himself to invalidate my formal EDS diagnosis—a diagnosis that took 10 years and multiple specialists to secure. He based his dismissive conclusion entirely on a flawed, partial joint assessment (examining my elbows through my shirt) and claimed that "all joints must be hypermobile" for EDS to be valid. He completely ignored the systemic nature of the condition and my specific history. I left feeling unheard and deeply disappointed by the lack of clinical thoroughness.
This is one doctor that I really trust with my health! Great doctor
Thank you- professional and straight forward.
