"Our experience with Dr. Matt Larsen and Ascend was the worst we could ever possibly imagine. The PA noted “patient is markedly ill.” Dr. Larsen significantly changed our son's course of treatment and, after a two week followup, didn’t reschedule our son for over two LONG months. No monitoring either. Our bipolar son explicitly told Dr. Larsen he didn’t like how long it took to get back in to see him. Our son’s condition seriously declined. We desperately tried, with our son’s permission, to reach Dr. Larsen for an appointment or phone call only to have receptionists/gatekeepers screen out our urgent pleas. No-one called us back. Unfortunately, our beloved son took his own life before the two month appointment came. We believe that the lack of monitoring and patient contact were significant factors in our son’s death. We truly hope that Dr. Larsen and the receptionists that he has trained are willing to reflect on their actions and consequences so that another child might live. "

"My 6 yr old son has been seeing Kade Anderson, PA-C for about 4 months now and I couldn’t be happier! My son has ADHD and I finally feel like we found a doctor who listens to our concerns and doesn’t try to force anything on us. He’s very informative and never makes us feel less than. The office staff is also very friendly & professional. 10/10 recommend this clinic. "

"Staff are really polite and very kind and friendly. There always right on top of things. Wating area is very nice and clean. Which is nice and comforting Evan though you don’t have to wait long. And the doctors listen and genuinely care about their patients. "

"My son, Logan, loved the friendly staff upon our arrival. Then he really loved meeting with Dr. Larsen and appreciated how he tried to get to know him. I appreciate Dr. Larsen’s knowledge and thoroughness in helping us figure Logan out. We have high hopes for the future. "

"Dr Matt Larsen at Ascend Mental Health and his staff are phenomenal! A couple of my children have needed mental heath expertise for 8+ years now. I’ve felt like my options have been so limited in our area and feel like I’ve needed to just take whatever I could get and deal with it. So when a new option became available when Dr Larsen opened up his outpatient practice I was very hopeful that he would not only be able to meet the mental needs of my kids but be able to help them have positive, uplifting experiences when they went to the Doctor. The office staff has been very attentive to detail and incredibly easy to work with, friendly and fun. After working with several different mental health providers I can truly appreciate how well Dr Larsen connects and communicates with my children. He talks to them and looks at them! He doesn’t instantly turn to me and ask me what I think they need, he talks to THEM. The questions he asks and the way he relates to my kids gives them an instant feeling ...
that they can trust him and confide in him with ease. He is always open to new ideas and avenues of treatment and won’t give up on trying to find the perfect solution for my kids, no matter how long it takes. His brilliance in childhood and adolescent mental health is amazing and our area is so incredibly blessed to have his expertise, friendly and silly personality and his amazing staff available to us all. I recommend his office to everyone I know that may have some of the similar struggles that my family faces. My family is so grateful to have Ascend Mental Health as an option for our mental Heath needs. "
