Listens and takes me seriously regarding my pain levels, my concerns and fears about my condition not improving. She explains treatment options and the pros and cons of each option. She welcomed the MyChart messages with photo attachments I sent to her from during weeks of treatment and ALWAYS replied promptly with explanation and suggestions of changes I could make before my next appointment. She also squeezed in an office appointment when she knew I needed an extra treatment now (not later). I was ever so grateful. She truly cares about her patients. :-)

She was absolutely phenomenal! She explained the test results very clearly and identified four different treatment options, including the advantages and disadvantages of each.

Deborah Christensen is a thorough, kind, professional and explains things so a non-medical person can understand.
