I left my appointment feeling great about my health and healthcare providers
I am very much satisfied with my treatment and my visit with everyone.
Dr. Olaf's son is always very personable, explains himself well and is very efficient, as is his staff
Everything went on schedule, absolutely nothing to complain about.
My Doctor explained my condition and study results to me in a way I could understand and he was not talking down to me. He is one of the only doctors ive had that actually listen, validate me, and truly care about making sure I understand what is going on.
As always, the care, service, attentiveness and professionalism at Froadtert facilities was superb.
It was fairly seamlessand everyone was friendly and professional.
Dr. Olafsson is very caring and concerned about me as a person. He listened To my explanation of why I didn't feel the need to be as medicated.

The appointment went very well, all of our questions were answered very clearly. The doctor explained treatment options and recommendations. We were able to leave the doctor visit and go to the lab for a test rather than having to schedule the test for another time and come back.
Good experience today!!!!!
