My first impression of Dr. Olsen was that he was very informative and professional. He took his time to answer all the questions that i had. Dr. Olsen in my opinion is the best surgeon ever...    Posted on 08/17/2009

My first impression was that he was all business & really didn't care to be interrupted when talking, but was just who I wanted to do my surgery. This has not changed I still feel the same and would choose him again. The office staff are fantastic. They are the nicest group of folks and I am looking forward to seeing them each chance I get. Probably the being interrupted when talking is the least that I like, I interrupt because if I wait until your are finished I'll forget what I was gonna ask.And if I write it down I'm not hearing. Future patients of Dr.O. should simply know that he is fantastic! He is big on aftercare, not drill sergant big but it is emphasized greatly. He addressed the risk of surgery point blank. He compared the risks to my previous surgeries and made the... [Click here for more]

My first impression was that he was very professional, and that has not changed. The office staff is wonderful...Kathy and Eloise both visited me in the hospital 2 days in a row. All have answered my questions promply and go above and beyond. There is realy nothing i don't like about Dr. Olsen. Some people may find him "cut & dry", but I kndda like that. I have had 2 incidences that he has called me himself, one was to answer a question. That really, really impressed me as i am a healthcare provider and beleive me that is not the norm for surgeons. He is a big advocate for aftercare and their program is wonderful. He did adress the risks of surgery several times and even when in holding askedif i still wanted to go through with it. Overall I know i picked a... [Click here for more]

Dr. Olsen was a true professional. He informed me about everything I needed to know and some things I never even thought about. I am so glad that I will have Dr.Olsen for my surgeon if I get approved (God willing) because he made me feel so comfortable about the whole surgery all my doubts and fears were put to rest. I will be honored to have Dr. Olsen as a surgeon.    Posted on 03/02/2009

I love Dr. Olsen...He is everything everyone told me he would be. He is very informative and his office staff has been terrific. He has a great program...It is called my Bariactic Bible..everything you need to know is there.    Posted on 01/24/2009

DR.OLSEN WAS GREAT. FROM THE FIRST VISIT. VERY GOOD BED SIDE MANNER. I HAD SOME COMPILCATIONS 1ST MONTH, I HAD TO GO BACK TO HOSPITAL COUPLE TIMES, DR.OLSEN WAS VERY THOROUGH. HE STAYED ON ME TO MAKE SURE I DRINKED AT LEAST 64 OZ OF FLUID A DAY. WHEN I LEFT HOSPITAL AND WENT HOME HE HAD HIS STAFF CALL ME TO MAKE SURE EVERYTHING WAS OK AND HAS CALLED ME HIMSELF TO CHECK AND GO OVER RESULTS WITH ME. WHICH MAKES YOU FEEL THAT THE DOCTOR REAL CARES ABOUT you and YOUR HEALTH. MY SURGERY WAS ON 07/22/08 AND I Have lost 71 pounds. Doing great now! I'm glad i picked dr.olsen. I have 7 friends at work who picked him also and all feel the same. I was refered to him by my friends and if anyone is thinking about the surgery would advised them tO pick dr.olsen.    Posted on 10/13/2008

I am 3 months post op and down 68 lbs. At my two month visit, Dr. Olsen said he was tickled pink with how I am doing. I can't see him really tickled pink. Love him to death. Would not have changed a thing.    Posted on 10/06/2008

Dr. Olsen impressed me the first visit as being very professional and business minded, a no nonsense type of guy. My impression has not changed much, but I knew going in that this was what I needed. The office staff are so friendly and upbeat that they kind of off set Dr. Olsen's serious, no nonsense attitude. They complement each other well. I do wish that Dr. Olsen shared my test results with me and explained what he's looking for when he runs my blood work. I never know exactly what my results say, not even when I come back for the next visit. I also wish he would share results with my general practiioner and my endochrinologist as they have requested. I think the 3 of the should share information to best treat me for all medical conditions. Future patients of Dr. Olsen... [Click here for more]

He is wonderful. I would recommend him to anyone. His staff is great. All you have to do is ask and they are willing to help in anyway they can or answer any questions. He is tremendously supportive. THe Aftercare is phenomenal. He Surgical competence and bedside manner cannot be beat.    Posted on 04/16/2008

I had my first visit with Dr. Olsen, Friday, Aug. 11. I found him to be very serious about his profession. He explained everything so completely. All my questions were answered extensively by him. His staff is absolutely wonderful. They treated me as if they had known me all my life. If you are considering this surgery I would strongly suggest you see Dr. Olsen, he let me know up front that this was a team effort, that I am not in it alone, and that together we will succeed. Now as of March 9, 2008 I am 18 months out after my surgery my impression of Dr. Olsen and his staff has not changed. In fact I have grown more appreciative of him and his staff. Recently Dr. Olsen and his staff were there for me when my husband had an unexplainable near death incident. Some one from Dr.... [Click here for more]
