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.

Terrible
Very arrogant doctor. Front office staff is not friendly and they charge extra for everything. Waited a very long time (over an hour) for each appointment. A new patient asked if this was normal and was told no. I should have said something then. I do not recommend this doctor.

Arrogant and Doesn't Listen
Easily one of the worst doctors we've ever met. Incredibly arrogant, repeatedly told us we were not to speak while he rambled on about how great he is, his wife, and basically gave us a medical lecture. Huge waste of time as we left with a medication that is contraindicated for our child due to their other health issues, but Dr. Larson didn't know that because he wouldn't let us speak and at that point we just wanted to get out of his office. I don't care how specialized he is, if he doesn't listen to the patient then he's a terrible doctor.

Dr Larsen is a God send
I have a difficult migraine case to deal with. Traditional treatments don't help me! I've had other Dr's quit or throw me out of their office! During the first visit Dr. Larsen promised not to do any of those things. He said he would keep at it till he helped me. It has been 5 years and he has been with me through good times and rough times. I have daily chronic migraines. I live with a daily pain level of 10. Dr. Larsen has stayed up-to-date on the latest treatments for my condition and we have tried different options over time. He has sent me to other specialists as needed! Now I am at a 4 pain level. It may go back up? I'm just thankful it is low now! Dr Larsen has kept his promise and stayed with me, always helpful!

Worked with Dr Larsen many years, he is on top of the latest methodologies and therapeutic plans in my opinion and truly seems to pull all the facts and needs to come with a realistic and workable plan to manage my headaches better. Glad he does what he does.

I called and made an appointment. I realized 5 minutes later that I could not make that appointment because I was going to be out of town. I called back immediately and cancelled the appointment and said I would call back to reschedule. The person said no problem! Apparently they reschedule without my knowledge or consent and then charged me a $150 fee! They have horrible customer service and now refuse to waive the fee.

Dr. Larsen listens. He genuinely cares and wants you to feel better. We tried a couple of things and he was very understanding when medicines did not work or had side effects. He is caring and compassionate and extremely knowledgeable. He could be condescending given his background and credentials, but he is anything but. Would highly recommend!

Dr Larsen prescribed so many medications for my daughter and made me feel that I couldn’t trust any other medical professional. Thankfully, his ridiculous billing practices- charging $25 to call in a refill to a pharmacy for example- made me stop going to him; I truly believe if we had stayed with him my daughter would not be alive today.

I suffer from chronic headache and migraine. Dr. Larsen is compassionate, innovative, knowledgeable, caring and personable. He is a one-man office, yet always has time to help. He keeps up-to-date on new treatments and has never given up on me. I am lucky to have found him.

Their scheduling/canceling and billing department is absolutely ridiculous! I was charged $ 75 for a cancellation fee even though I called with in their time frame and it says there cancellation fee is $50! We had been patients there for over 3 years! Stay away!!

As a patient of Dr. Larsen's for the past four years, I can honestly say that he is one of the best migraine doctors I've seen. He listens to my needs and concerns and has worked to help find a treatment plan that works best for me. Very knowledgeable and committed to his patient's care!

After my doctor retired tried a couple doctors in the area Dr Larsen will try to find a cure but after 30 years I just wanted pain control , He does not give many pills so you get charged $ 25 for a RX refill.. I went to pain clinic and this worked out better for me hey I'm 68 years old and years of finding a cure is a waste... with right pain medicine every day is perfect... so look to a pain management clinic for help...

In the fall of 2015, I was seriously ill with multiple symptoms including optical migrane, but also cardiac & neurological symptoms. After several ER visits, subspecialists, & symptoms worsening, I found Dr. Larsen. It took some time, but he got me back on my feet! Migraine is a journey. Work with Dr. Larsen...he will help you! Very strict office policies, but they are upfront about them & will remind you with every appt.

Dr. Larsen is a blessing to those of us with chronic migraines/headaches. He is persistent and does not give up on his patients. He takes the time to educate you on the treatment options and really understands what his patients go through. He also stays on top of new medications and protocols.
