Dr Michael Janssen was quick and didn't harp on me about anything. He was quick to determine I didn't have a sinus or ear infection and told me why he knew. He offered me a prescription but said OTC was also available. I had the OTC at home and began treatment. I really liked him and our brief visit.

I've had Dr. Michael Jantzen as my personal doctor for just over 5 years. He has always taken the time to listen to my concerns, follow up with clear explanations and recommend specialists when necessary. He is a very personable man that truly cares about his patient. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great personal physician.
Swedish Patient
I am an 81 year-old retired professor. I come from a family of doctors and academics. I have known a lot of doctors in my life and I cannot emphasize enough that Dr. Michael Jannsen is an outstanding physician. He is going to to do everything he can to keep me alive for another ten years, despite the fact that he is going to have to deal with a very severe case of chronic obstructive trumpulitis.
Swedish Patient
Explains my questions fully
Swedish Patient
Dr. Jassen was thorough, warm, and listened carefully to everything I had to say. It was honestly the longest time I spent with a PCP (ever), but I'm coming from NY where the docs there are rushing you in and out of the office ASAP - I just wanted to say it was a great experience, and the nurses/staff were super friendly. Even when I got lost in the hospital, other doctors helped with directions (: thanks.

Dr. Janssen always takes time to make sure we've covered the reason(s) for the visit and to invite any additional questions and health concerns.
