Dr Soren Olson and his staff are wonderful! I would rate them 5 stars only because there is not a 6 star. They are very open for questions and eager to explain so patients can understand clearly the process and time needed for healing. As a patient I felt like it was a member of the team and responsible for doing the PT necessary for the best results I wanted. I am back riding my bike and working in my yard. Life is good at 75yrs old. Thank you ever so much! Diane Frank

I had a shoulder replacement done by Dr Soren Olsen about 18 months ago. I have had shoulder pain every since... when seeing another surgeon to find out the problem, he informed me that the tendons had not been properly connected, and that there was nothing he could do about . Have been in pain every since. I don't recommend Dr Olson.

Dr. Olson is a really nice guy and an excellent surgeon. He really took the time to explain my procedure and answer all of my questions. His easy going nature and confidence in his work really put me at ease going into my surgery. It is obvious when dealing with him, that he really cares about his patients. I made a great choice by having him as my surgeon and would highly recommend him.

My son had surgery today I had to call after hours to ask a question and when the call got dropped on Dr. Olson he was not pleasant and asked what I could do very abrasively and said he was in the middle of a case. Excuse me but you’re on call so I was told if we had questions or needed help to call.. very unprofessional! Dr Kody was Amazing, I highly recommend

I would have given anything for him to have taken care of my injury and not left me to suffer in pain and unable to walk.

Dr Soren Olson is topnotch and, due to that, some delays in being seen may occur. He is well worth the wait and his support staff is excellent.

Had my ACL repaired for the second time in my left knee. Was very friendly and explained everything well. He is young but knows his craft well. I definitely would recommend him to a friend.
