Doctor Jensen treated our son with kindness and answered all of his questions as well as ours, and we had a lot of them (questions). He has the best bedside manner and such a comforting smile, we feel very fortunate to have him as our son surgeon.

My wife and I love Dr. Jensen. From the start after first learning about my wife's brain tumor we felt the utmost confidence in his abilities and he has been very compassionate and caring throughout the diagnosis, surgery and follow up. In our last visit I wish we could have spent a little more time with him as it was really short and we left kind of feeling like "that's it?" This has been a life altering experience for us and we worry and wonder a lot about the future and would have liked to have had a little more time with him but I understand that he is very busy and I think that the outcome of my wife's surgery has been so good in his eyes that maybe he felt like she was doing so good that there wasn't much else to tell us. Regardless, he is a very good man and we feel fortunate to have had him as our neurosurgeon.

Dr Jensen was very thorough and gave me every option I could choose for treatment without forcing me in any way.

March 22, 2012

All elements in this group of questions were very good, and these are the most important questions.

They underestimated the time to get the pathology report which kept us on pins and needles for a few extra days, so would have preferred to have it more accurate, but this was a small thing overall
