Dr. Christian D Tvetenstrand, MD

In 2009 I had a double hernia that Dr T repaired using Laparoscopy for me and I was in OR at 7:00 AM and home at 11:30 AM the same day. I have sense seen him on numerous other out patient surgeries and he definitely treated me well. Thank You Dr T.

P.S. doesn't a female nurse needs to be present with a female patient when he is looking at surgery on a ano fistula?

I had an emergency appendectomy and Dr. T was the on call surgeon. His clothing appeared soiled, which was also his presentation when I met with him for post-op. I have had 4 prior laparoscopic surgeries prior to this, and this was the first time I had ever developed a rash around the incision. Dr. T said I must be allergic to the surgical glue, but again, 4 prior surgeries of this type and never have I developed a rash. I honestly just assume it was because he was not a clean doctor. Avoid if you can!

My mother went under surgery and he was the doctor and she ended up with an infection and gangrene and passed away 2 days after being set home. I’ve known other patients of his that had infections as well and passed away. Be careful

He was fantastic! I had to have my gallbladder removed and he got me scheduled right away to accommodate my school schedule. His office visits are never longer than 10 minutes because he's prompt and succinct. He's a little abrupt, but I didn't mind.

My husband had a head injury and went there as a follow up after being released from the hospital. He had many injuries and before he was released, should've had all the follow-ups scheduled, but no ever scheduled anything. When we went for the follow up, the doctor told us his staff would schedule the follow ups with a neurologist and orthopedist. After a few days, my husband called to see about the appts, the person he spoke to was extremely rude and nasty and then told my husband he's responsible for his own care and should've made his own appts!!!! The man had a concussion, has difficulty remembering, is dizzy and gets home health care! I was so angry that someone who is supposed to be taking care of the injured would treat someone like this and this doctor should really be careful of who he employs there. I actually had to request that someone take my husband's blood pressure when he went in for his appt! I've never seen anything like it and don't appreciate getting a nasty… attitude from the staff. Lady-if you don't like your job, then don't work with people-you're clearly not cut out for it.

I had ROUXEN Y gastric bypass surgery with Dr.T 11 years ago, i had a wonderful experience with him, he was kind answered all of my questions and complimented me on my success at my folllow up appts. No complaints here, he is a brilliant surgeon.

Dr. T is very arrogant. Does not have a good bed side manner. My husband and I have both had surgeries done by him. The first few surgeries were great. The past five weeks my spouse has had two surgeries , one for a hernia repair, back in with a staph infection from T's negligence. Spouse went back in again a week and a half later with the same infection (never went away) Another surgery to remove the mesh (infected) and replace with another mesh. Dr. said he would keep him and let him go two days later and now has another infection (never went away). Can you say "LAWSUIT". We are not people to sue, but this has to stop!

Dr. T, is a lifesaver. I had colon cancer which was diagnosed in the ER, not by the ER doctor, but through Dr. T. He came promptly, and said he was friends with the GI doctor and we would do a colonoscopy that day. When the results came back that it surely was cancer, he took me to surgery immediately so I could avoid having to have a bag that my colon would empty into. I can not thank him enough
