The doctor and staff were phenomenal. Very quick to take me back and get everything done. Dr. Hansen was great at explaining what he was doing and why he was doing it so I had an understanding of the procedure.

This was the best team of medical staff I have been around in a long time. I would love to have them around if I ever had foot problems again. Dr. Larsen had been busy but still took the time to make me feel like I was the only patient there. The young lady that took my initial information was terrific, she too made me feel like I was the first patient of the day. I loved visiting and if I need their service again I know I will be welcomed.

I recently had bunion removal surgery with Dr Dickerson. From the clinic visits to surgery to post op I was beyond impressed! The clinic staff are so efficient and kind and Dr Dickerson was very personable. In the office he explained to me that after surgery I would have a lidocaine catheter in my foot and would use that for pain relief. There would still be pain meds available but to do the catheter first. The surgery went great and after the catheter was such a great experience. It was easy to use and the pain relief was taken care of with the catheter. An occasional ibuprofen was needed but no narcotics. It was easy to use and I would recommend this to anyone! I loved having this. I had such a great experience with him and his team. Definitely 5 star team!

Like a genius I jumped into a river without looking first. I broke four bones in my foot and was worried I’d never be the same. Lucky for me both Dr Hansen and Dr Larsen actually are geniuses at what they do. The did surgery last October and pieced me back together. On top of being skilled. They are also both personable and attentive. I was mountain biking 5 months after surgery and able to start running a few weeks after that. Still have some healing to do but I’m grateful for Drs that know what they are doing.

BEST DOCTOR EVER! Everything about Dr. Larsen is amazing. I felt so comfortable with him doing my surgery. I had seen other doctors before, but Dr. Larsen was the one! He has been great through my recovery. He really really cares about me as a patient. Makes me feel like a family member when I'm there. I highly highly recommend him.
