“Love the whole crew!”
Been going here for awhile and keep coming back, not only for access to Dr. Carlson, but his team - Gaby, Derek (PT) and front desk! They make me feel welcome, are easy to communicate and schedule with.

“Too good to be true, except it is true”
Outstanding client relationship. Professional staff that cares and willing to get things done for you regarding paperwork. They explain treatments and examines, what they are doing as they are doing it and why. I was sent by the VA and this is hands down the best experience I've had with medical care regarding my injuries. This place is too good to be true, except that it is.

I like that Dr. Carlson is "present" when he is with me and takes time to review and explain

“Looking for help with long-time shoulder and neck pain”
After having issues sleeping for a long time, I went to see Dr. Carlson. He was able to rule out various issues and put me on a plan to see if things would improve. He also sent me home with home exercises first, to see if that would remedy the issue, before going down the more expensive PT route. I appreciated this approach to looking for the simple solutions first.

Comment - “ A great provider! ”
Dr. Carlson has been a great and trusted resource for our family for years. He and his staff are all very thorough and thoughtful and he provides the most up to date treatments. He is a leader in the industry and still able to maintain his level of personal care. His whole team takes the right amount of time for both treatment and explanation of our rehabilitation needs as well as insurance. I highly recommend Stadia Sports Medicine.
