I had the same type of exam performed in acute care last year and was not treated with the same caring and respect from that provider.Dr. Mortensen really went the extra mile for me.Thank you again."

    "I was very frustrated due to the fact that during my annual exam she thought she felt a lump. It took 1 1/2 month to get a mammogram and ultrasound and see Dr. Mortensen. Thank goodness it ended up being nothing, but scar tissue. I was very frustrated with this as I have had great health care with Medical Associates. I like Dr. Mortensen a lot and after I seen him he immediately wanted a mammogram and ultrasound ASAP."

    "The letter sent from Radiology was confusing. The first paragraph said I needed a biopsy. The second paragraph said what my ultrasound and mammogram was normal. The sixth and last paragraph said, "Additional info about dense breast could be found at 2 links." That was the FIRST that dense breast had been mentioned!"
