Olav Rønningen Wangensteen

After I moved to Norway, he was my 2nd fastlege. I thought I got some nerve problems on my shoulder from my car accident and wanted to see a nerve specialist or orthopedist, but he told me there is no existing treatment for nerve problems and didn't refer to any specialists. Also he said I have to just wait until it becomes better. Actually I didn't know it was nerve problems or other problems. He said he knows those kinds of problems and even didn't refer to physiotherapist. He was totally ignoring me and what I said to him. I still don't know why he behaved like that. I have been struggling for about 2 years with my shoulder problems and I finally went to Singapore and South Korea to get proper treatments. It was not nerve problems. That was some inflammation between shoulder tendons. I got FIMS, ESWT and acupuncture treatments. After that I could use my arm and shoulder properly. Thanks to Olav Rønning Waangensteen, I had to struggle for about 2 years. If he referred to a specialist at least, I could find out earlier what the exact problems I had. I think he doesn't have enough medical knowledge. I don't know which medical school he graduated from. But one thing is quite clear. He is not competent!! If he doesn't have any ability to decide for patients, he must stop practice as a fastlege. Still I remember his full name even though he is not my fastlege now.

Hele vår familie har Wangensteen som fastlege, og vi kunne ikke vært mer tilfredse. Lytter, undersøker, henviser, følger opp, foretar rehenvisning til spesialist om nødvendig. Tar kontakt per telefon når dette er hensiktsmessig.

Formidabelt seriøs lege, profesjonell og meget empatisk - samtidig som det er fritt for dilldall.

Min datter ser frem til timene hos doktor Olav, det er i seg selv en fremragende referanse. Hun er generelt skeptisk til folk som utsetter henne for stikk.

Min familie hadde Wangensteen som lege i flere år, dro til han kanskje 2-3 ganger som barn. Dro dit selv, alene etter å ha flyttet ut av foreldrene mine sitt hus og bestemte meg til å dra til samme fastlege. Jeg er ekstremt provosert og skuffet over denne legen. Denne personen har total mangel for empati. Om du har psykiske vanskeligheter, så anbefaler jeg ikke denne legen. Han spurte spørsmål som ikke er aksepterende å spørre, f.eks om hvorfor du har psykolog. Han klarer ikke å lese kroppspråk og ser ut til å like å sette pasientene hans i en veldig ukomfortabel sinnstilling. Han truer også med å sende beskymringsmelding til barnevernet eller psykiatrisk avdeling om du ikke møter opp til en time han tvinger deg til å dra til for en "check up". Misliker sterkt denne mannen.

Speaks god english, is sympathetic and very professional both for my husband and our little son. It is also easy to book time. He will send you to further research if necessary.
