I recently had a lumbar spine fusion done by Dr. Jensen. He patiently answered all my questions about the surgery. He and his staff are very professional and I was pleased with the way I was treated there. He seemed very knowledgeable about the procedure and had state of the art equipment at FMH. I would recommend Dr. Jensen to anyone.

I was in a bad atv accident during vacation. Dr Jensen went out of his way to see me so I could go home. His staff was very friendly and answered all my questions. Dr Jensen went into detail about my condition showed me all my images and answered all my questions. They even helped me will a follow up provider in the state I reside in. Thank you Dr Jensen and staff!
