Stephanie was prepared. She asked questions, she listened, she explained. I know she is available if I need questions answered or have any problems along the way. I feel confident in care received and going forward. Thank you

I am very satisfied with the care I am receiving from Stephanie Carlsen and the entire medical team. She takes time to explain everything to me. When I need something and inquire through "MyChart" the nurse always gets back to me quickly. I feel that my heart health is in good hands with both Stephanie Carlsen and her medical team.
