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.

Should be five across the board!
Great at explaining all and been seeing Dr Hansen for over 9 years!

Kind and Thorough
He checked every possibility to make sure nothing was missed, he didn't dismiss my symptoms, and took what I had to say seriously. He was able to diagnose issues other doctors had ignored.

Dr. Hansen a great heart doctor
I have been with Dr. Hansen for several years now. When I first went to him he worked with me to get me on the right medicine to control my blood pressure that was way out of control that my other heart doctor could not do. I'm so lucky to be his patient now. He listened to you and takes time to explains every thing to you and doesn't hurry out of the the room until all of your questions are answered. We need more doctors like him.

The nurse who took me back to the exam room and the nurse who took my EKG were wonderful. Very friendly and put me very much at ease. Dr. Hansen was very friendly, inquisitive, and made me feel he was in no hurry to move on to his next patient.

A caregivers dream
I take care of a 96yr old veteran and when his cardiologist through the VA retired we got the choice to pick his next heart doctor. My choice was Dr Hanson, he did so well with my husband I knew that should be our choice. At 96 it's hard for doctors to see the value his life still has, and few I have met, see that my guys life still has value. Dr Hanson is kind friendly and to the point. And with such a great doctor he also has a great staff. Thank you Dr Hanson and staff for the wonderful care given.

He listens to you and doesn't give the impression that he can't wait for you to leave (like my last MD). He also recommended a great Lung MD who helped me with my asthma and sleep problems.

I’ve been seeing Dr Hansen for a few years now and I always leave his office feeling like I saw some one who genuinely cared about my well being. He is thorough, knowledgeable, up to date and takes the time that is necessary. He is a cordial man and seems to take pride in explaining the technical aspects and then translating to easy to understand language. I think highly of him
