Dr. Abildgaard explained everything very well to me. Very nice doctor.
Responsive and helpful.
Dr. Abildgaard is an honest professional doctor who provides exceptional care to his patients. He provides options and alternatives for treatments and explains honestly what course of treatment would get you to where you want to be. He has a great personality and is easy to communicate with. He took great care of my tore Rotator Cuff. He follows up on progress and physical therapy. I could not have asked for a better physician.
Very thorough and pleasant
I enjoyed our first conversation and was impressed by his demeanor.
I feel like the doctor was in a rush. He didn’t want to discuss, he more so wanted to figure out the diagnosis and move on. I understand he probably has many appointments and responsibilities per day but I guess it would be nice to have more like 15 minutes considering the cost of these appointments.
