I have been treated by Dr. Christensen several times for problems with my hands and fingers. I am so appreciative of the time he has taken to explain what is happening, and the options for treatment. I have had tremendous success with the injections he gave me which have kept me from having to have surgery to fix the "trigger" fingers I had. He has, also, helped me with an option of typing physical therapy first, for treating a "frozen" shoulder. That, also, has kept me from having to consider surgery and has worked well for me. I am most grateful to Dr. Christensen for his expertise and his help. He certainly does not rush you into surgery if a more conservative method can be tried first. For that I am very grateful.
