Insurances accepted
Baylor Scott & White has established agreements with several types of insurance to ensure your health needs are covered.
Insurance listings are subject to change without prior notice.
Please call your physician's office or your health or insurance plan to verify coverage information prior to scheduling your visit or procedure. Not all members participating in contracted networks have "in network" access. In network participation may change from time to time without prior notice. Independent providers (which could include, for example only, anesthesiologists, radiologists, pathologists, emergency medicine physicians, advance practice professionals, and other independent providers of health care services) may deliver part of your care, and such providers may be considered out-of-network on your health and insurance plans even if the Facility may be considered in network. If you desire additional information as to the providers who may be involved in providing your care, you can either ask your treating provider (who may know some of the specialists or groups who could be involved) or you can request a list of Facility-based physician groups by calling the following toll free number: (877) 810-0372. This list is updated annually and is subject to change without prior notice.

Patients appreciate
Dr. William Christensen receives overwhelmingly positive feedback from patients who consistently praise his exceptional listening skills and patient-centered approach. Reviewers repeatedly emphasize that he takes time during appointments, never rushes visits, and makes patients feel heard and valued. His compassionate, caring demeanor and excellent bedside manner are highlighted throughout the reviews, with many patients describing him as genuinely concerned about their wellbeing. Patients appreciate his thoroughness in examinations, his ability to explain medical information in understandable terms, and his responsiveness to questions and concerns. His professional yet personable approach creates a comfortable environment where patients feel confident asking questions. Many reviewers note long-term relationships spanning 20-30+ years with Dr. Christensen, with several stating they drive significant distances to continue seeing him and consider him the best doctor they've ever had.
Patients also share
The reviews contain minimal criticism of Dr. Christensen's care. A few patients mentioned slightly longer wait times on occasion, though this was rarely noted and not emphasized as a significant concern. One or two reviews indicated appointments that felt somewhat rushed, but these comments were exceptionally rare among hundreds of overwhelmingly positive reviews. Overall, patients expressed very few areas for improvement, with the vast majority reporting complete satisfaction with all aspects of their care experience.
