Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Christensen was very knowledgeable, kind, and warm.

Dr Christensen was already a bit late when she came into my first appointment, but she was incredibly good about making sure she answered my questions, addressing my concerns, but still being realistic about the risks and realities of the procedures I will/may be undergoing soon. I'm sure I made her much later in her schedule that day, but I so appreciate that she took the time to explain everything to me and did not minimize my concerns. As a result, i am much less afraid than I was.

Entire cadre of Providence Cardiology team has been tremendous. I have seen Dr. Christensen since 2002 and in this visit, she recalled the circumstances of my first encounter some 24 years ago. Each time, she has spent the time with me that I felt necessary and answered each question with the care and concern that revealed her expertise and humanity. Again, the entire cardiology team here, administrative, technician, nurse, and physician have been great and I believe have seriously lengthened my quality of life. I am deeply appreciative.

Everyone is amazing, but it took several months to get in and now will take a couple months to get MRI ordered. I'm sure they are busy, but wish answers from tests could be quicker.
