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.

One of the best surgeons in Star Valley
Dr. Jensen performed a minimal invasive surgery on my L4,L5 bulging disc. I was released the same day and in only 8 weeks, I'm back at full strength. My back has never felt better. I highly recommend him if you need surgery involving a bulging disc.

Tremendous results
Dr. Jensen accurately diagnosed my spine issue and explained treatment options in easy to understand detail. He performed the necessary surgical procedures and I was able to get back on my feet with no pain in just days. The care and treatment he provided in conjunction with the team was outstanding. Additionally, Dr. Jensen was personable, respectful, and down to earth. With no hesitation I would commend Dr. Jensen to my family, friends and to anyone.

Had spine fusion surgery with Dr. Jensen. The surgery was a success and gave me my life back. Before surgery, I was unable to even take a walk on our trail with my husband. After recovery from the surgery, we went on vacation to the Grand Canyon and Utah. I was able to walk trails, stand for long periods of time and things that would have never been possible before my surgery. Thank you to Dr. Jensen, his staff and the wonderful team at the surgery center!

DrJensen was thorough, patient and diligent as he provided care for me. As a RN, I was impressed with how he listened, observed, examined and explained with every interaction. As my symptoms were complex and atypical, he utilized a diverse number of tests and referrals to seek the source and treat the pain. I commend his approach and would both recommend him to others, but would return myself should the need arise. I’d consider him one of the best physicians I have seen in my life.

Dr jensen’s instinct for patients is very good. I have been battling back trouble for 15 years and have had three prior surgeries. My fourth surgery which Dr. Jensen performed has fixed my problem! We have been telling others about my success story and would recommend Dr. Jensen to everyone. Shirley Bush
