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. Larson is the best!
Smart, caring, and genuinely listens to her patients. I never feel like she is just going through the motions, she respects her patients and is never dismissive. She will explain results, options for treatment, and will never push you to take a medicine that isn't absolutely required. I was lucky to be connected with her years ago via my employer physical program and followed her when she changed medical groups. As long as she remains in practice locally I will remain her patient!

I went once a year ago, I got a medication and the bottle had false information . I hardly go to the doctor but I didn’t know the prescription for the medicine lasted only a year. I was waiting for the date on the “refill” on the bottle. When I call my pharmacy they told me they couldn’t get me my medicine because I had to go back to see the doctor. The real problem is that I tried to explain this to the receptionists & a woman named Nelly. She was awfully rude & she made me an appointment when I never asked for one. I called to cancel that appointment THAT I NEVERR ASKED FOR. & on top of that she made me an appointment on a work day in the morning. She doesn’t know my schedule. If I hadn’t gotten that email I wouldn’t have realized she made me an appointment. Very unprofessional if you ask me.

Very Caring & Takes time to Listen
Dr Larson took time to let me talk and explain my health concerns. She is proactive and doesn’t appear to be a pill pusher. I appreciated her time and knowledge.

Great physician
Dr Larson is a wonderful caring physician. She listens well and responds with appropriate medical advice and has true concern for her patient’s wellbeing. When she moved practices I followed her because it’s hard to find a great doctor. The practice is very busy but she is available through a communication tool that allows texting and she also does zoom appointments.

She placed my IUD and I felt like she took such great care of me. I was very nervous and had a lot of questions but she and the nurses gave me detailed answers and I could tell I was in good hands. I've now been into the office twice and both times appointments were easy to schedule, fast, and all the staff seemed kind and knowledgeable.

Dr. Larson is a great doctor very kind, caring and listens to my concerns. However, my only issue is the front desk, trying to get an appointment is very difficult. Each time I get sent to urgent care or Saturday walk ins which is a 5-6 hour wait. What I would like is to have an appointment during the week to be seen by her. Unfortunately, I will have to change my primary doctor because of this ongoing issue.

Dr Larson is a very caring physician, however, it is impossible to get an appointment with her due to her work load. The last two times that I needed to see her, the front office sent me to urgent care as she was not available. This last time that I called they said I would not be able to get an appointment for three months, but I could come in to urgent care if I needed someone that day. She needs to get an assistant to do her paperwork so that she can see patients.
