Gave us the run around for over a week, putting my family member at further risk. Now in ICU. He can't and doesn't want to do anything but send you to the ER. Zero follow-up, has you keep coming back to increase his fees, instead of referring you to a doctor who is knowledgeable and can get things done quickly. Very condescending and rude to both the patient and the family. More concerned with his time off and schedule than the patient's wellbeing. Frankly, I'm unsure why this man is a doctor. He should not be allowed to practice medicine. If you value your family member and yourself, stay away! Respectfully.

This doctor is a hazard to your health after refusing to give results of a test in a life or death situation he demanded 100.00 dolars for the test from a Medicare patient and to go another way to get result's. This man is not worthy of being called a Doctor.

Dr. Olson has been giving a friend of mine prescriptions for some very strong pain medications for a long time now instead of referring him to a pain specialist, very concerning to me

I went to him several times with health concerns. He would not do any testing. He said I was fine. Finally got so bad that I went to another Doctor who did more tests and found out I have Lupus and Rheumatoid Arthritis. If he would have listened and tried, I would have suffered less and have less joint damage from waiting so long.

I have been a patient of Dr. Olson's for about 3 years now and he has always been effective for me. I have always had a short waiting time and found the staff to be friendly and professional. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a primary care doctor.

Does not want to answer questions or address concerns. He will become very snappish if you still have questions when he is finished with you. Will write a referral to specialist and then he is done with you. His office girl is hateful! There is a lack of professionalism in the office that is quite off putting.

The front receptionist can be embarrassing in front of other patients waiting. The doctor only wants to hear of one complaint per visit. You have to make another appt. to see about another complaint. Hence, another medicare fee. You have to make another appt. to know your results of bloodwork. Not happy. Changing doctors.

DR Olson was prompt, spent time, and is pro-active for my needs. Got me in for an x-ray the next day. There was no waiting.
