Dr. Jeff listened to my concerns and answered my questions with knowledge and understanding. Time management was great.
Great experience with Dr Abildgaard!
His attitude was was very cold towards my symptoms of right shoulder pain, and refused to schedule me a pain management referral or additional cortisone injections in my shoulder to help my shoulder pain. I have told him that physical therapy has been unsuccessful but he recommended more physical therapy. He has poor bedside manner, towards me.
Dr. Abildgaard was very informative regarding my needs and provided some great options for care.
Personable, listened and gave me good options!
Very knowledgeable and great communication with patients
Very personal and caring. He is very skilled and takes the time to educate and exam patient’s. He provides them with the information to help them understand why and were the problem is coming from and how to resolve
Very quick in and out of the room but pleasant
Injection was painless
Very nice and explained things throughly.
