Dr. Olsen always expresses care for any problems I'm facing and shows concern by following thru with recommendations and follow ups.
Dr. Olsen is more than a physician; he's a healer.Y'all should be happy you have him.
Dr. Olsen is the perfect PCP, in my opinion. He takes time, is aware of PMH, and is actually interested in his patients. Rare these days!
I have been a patient at Carilion Westlake for over 20 years and while all of the physicians have been good, Dr Olsen ranks at the top along with Dr Merten who he replaced. I say that because of his ability to make me think I am the only patient he is dealing with that day---even though the waiting room might be packed and I know he probably treats several hundred patients. We are very fortunate to have Dr Olsen In our community.
