Dr. Callsen was able to see me with little notice when my usual provider had to be absent from the office. Dr. Callsen had thoroughly familiarized herself with my history and asked me all the detailed questions necessary to advise me. It was so clear that she cares about any patient she sees and takes whatever time is necessary to give good advice for the particular situation. Her advice was excellent and helped me so much. I am very appreciative of her outstanding care.

Dr Callsen always reliable in approach to consider the patient as a whole. I feel adequate time is taken to address concerns and that I am listened to. Attention is taken to explain things in a way that is understood by patient. Messages are answered promptly on the portal for follow up inquiries/referrals as needed.

Dr Callsen has come a long way. At first meeting I was a little put off and decided to stick with her because she doesn't sugar coat anything and as a patient that's what I need. Someone who is very direct, doesn't sugar coat things but not nasty with her responses.

A good experience. Been seeing Dr. Callsen for about 8 yrs
- 4 out of 5 starsReviewed on 10/8/2023
I felt that the provider's approach to my health would be easily replicated by AI or a robot-- look at blood test results, prescribe medication following established protocols. There was no real engagement with my personal history, my individual medical needs, and non-medicinal ways of improving my health.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 10/5/2023
Overworked and over-scheduled but squeezed me in Friday Oct 6.
