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.

He may have saved my life by ordering a cat scan that caught my double pneumonia and he admitted me to the hospital that day

I would recommend him and have. Only 1 issue now
Felt that he minimized my symptoms that sent me to the ER the previous week. Medical records from that ER visit were not there and I had to investigate with hospital to have them sent. It’s been almost 3 weeks with no follow up.

My Trusted Primary Physician
I’ve been going to Dr. ROLFSEN for many years; and trust him as a colleague. He always acknowledges and addresses any concerns I have. However, as I’m getting older (and slower in thought processes), I feel hurried in getting my questions adequately answered.)

“Old fashioned” personal care
Dr. Rolfsen makes you feel like a friend. He asks about family members and actually cares about how they’re doing but gets right to the cause and treatment that is needed to address the issues a patient came to see him for. It’s up to date treatment paired with “old-fashion” care and concern. The perfect combination that is rare to find in any profession.
