Dr. Christiansen is top notch and will work to resolve your medical concerns. He listens intently and ask questions that make sense. He is very careful to just say this is what you have but rather let’s make sure this is what it is, offer a plan of care, and follow up. I have been seeing him for a few years and I enjoy his expertise, bed side manner, and his thoroughness when selecting a plan of care.

Dr, Christensen took time with me to educate me about my condition. I have a peg tube and he changed the type tube other doctors had tried. What an improvement! He cares. I have already given his number to my relatives to schedule a visit! Highly recommend Dr. Chris!
