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.

They were very professional very cordial, and easy to talk to! Would highly recommend them!!

Quick and to the point
My appointment was fast and to the point. She took my X-rays, did her examination, and went over the options I had to fix my issue. She was walked me through the imaging and showed me where my issue was. I recommend her to anyone having joint issues.

Patients and patient's time doesn't matter.
I made an appointment with Dr Hallquist MD for a second evaluation of my knees. The evaluation went well after waiting 45 minutes to be seen. A MRI was scheduled and completed, so I scheduled a follow up for a review of the MRI. The appointment was at 11:30am. After waiting 2 hours, no communication of the delay, I cancelled the appointment. The aids called to say that the Dr was busy. 30 days later, I requested my records. I was given information of 7-10 days processing time to receive my records. 30 days , I went to the office again for my records. I was told that the Dr has not completed the evaluation. I'm waiting to see if there accumulating additional charges from the medical center. I don't recommend this unprofessional physician.

Dr HallquistMD has just done my second shoulder replacement within a year. I can not say enough good about the experiences. She listened and answered all my questions. The first one went so well and I have so much more range of motion and hardly any pain. She is ready to answer questions any time. I waited 5 years to have the first operation because of another doctor in group who was not encouraging or supportive.

Poor clinical judgment
Telehealth
After a three-hour wait, my pain was dismissed. Despite clear diagnostic evidence, her incompetence was astounding. A second opinion confirmed the need for surgery—a fact she blatantly ignored. Her arrogance is a disgrace. Physicians must remember they are not infallible and capable of mistakes. True professionals acknowledge their limitations. She has much to learn, starting with basic patient care and the patient experience.
