Lorien M. Paulson, MD

Dr. Paulson is absolutely the best

This was a checkup. Full exam given. All went well.

I love the personal care Dr. Paulson gives me. She is also careful to include my husband in her conversations with me. She is an amazing doctor, surgeon and person!

The receptionist and office staff were very pleasant. Wait time was minimal. Dr Paulson was very knowledgeable and thoroughly explained each procedure and made sure I was very comfortable during the procedure. I would recommend Dr Paulson's services to my neighbors and friends. Thank you Providence for a job well done.

All was great

She was a very sweet doctor.I really enjoyed seeing her. I would definitely see her again If and when I have more Issues.She was nice to me She listen to me when I had questions. She answered them to where I understood her.

All went good

Great ENT team. Thanks

Dr. Paulson approached our daughter's care thoughtfully and gave helpful advice.

Everyone in the office are professional.

We are new to this provider. She and her nurse practitioner/staff have taken our ongoing medical issues seriously and provided support every step of the way to get procedures and referrals approved by our health insurance provider. I appreciate the quality care and level of seriousness given to a 6yo patients needs.

Dr. Paulson makes you feel comfortable when taking care of your medical concerns.

Great team, great provider!

I appreciated her straightforward style and her concern for me. For example, she knew from my records why I was wearing a mask, and wore one herself the whole time and minimized the time I needed to have mine off

Dr. Paulsen was professional, knowledgeable, and thorough in her explanations of what she felt she was able to offer me to correct the health care concerns I have. She explained her perspective well.

I thought she did a great job and ordered necessary follow-up tests in a timely manner.

Fantastic care! We appreciated everyone's help and kindness. As smooth and as great as it possibly can be when your child needs surgery.

Recognized me as a person. Spent the time to explain what was coming, to explain procedures, etc. I was particularly impressed with this doctor's performance and interpersonal skills. Yeah, im not kidding.

Great healthcare team

Excellent care provider with an exceptional team!

I found it helpful that Dr Paulsen was able to look at my medical records from other doctors right in the exam room during my visit. Doing so helped the doctor greatly and she was able to address my concerns.

Great experience!

Very happy

Very thorough and caring. Great experience overall.

This Dr is the most knowledgeable Specialty Dr that I have ever seen. Dr Paulson knows her stuff. Every time that results came back from my scans or tests, she would call me herself right when she got the results to tell me the results. She got me in right away for surgery and would call me up afterwards to ask how I was doing. No other Dr or Specialty Dr has done that before. Thank you Dr Pauson!

Dr. Paulson was very helpful in explaining what was going on and what needed to happen next. Her friendliness and thoroughness helped ease my anxiety over the situation.

Dr. Paulson is wonderful and her staff the best.

The care and guidance with this provider was exceptional, and always has been in this office. They listen, don't rush you and give a through exam. I love going here!!

Dr Paulson is a great Physician! She ordered all the scans that were necessary, unlike my Primary Dr, to determine my diagnosis. I got in quickly to get the Biopsy, and a few weeks later, I was scheduled for my surgery. My Primary told me it was nothing. Thank you Dr Paulson!

A Really competent and pleasant physician to have provide critically needed care to me. Thank you

Keep up the good work " Dr. Paulson Team" Thanks

Dr Paulson and staff were considerate and professional. Check in went smoothly. The blood pressure unit did not seem to be working correctly as the MA had to try 3 or 4 times to get a reasonable reading. Dr. Paulson was very thorough with her exam and explanation of my symptoms. She gave me options for treatment and explained the pros and cons of each option. It was a good appointment and well worth my time.

Dr. Paulson Was very informative about the procedure and I feel she did a phenomenal job explaining everything in detail and I'm very happy with the outcome. The office staff has treated me very well and I would highly recommend her To any other families that have ENT issues

Dr. Paulson and her staff are wonderful!

Had a great experience. Had a amazing group of nurses through out the time we were there. Thank you all to them they were so nice

Pleasant and informative visit

The office staff did not relate to me in any human, individual way. Indeed they seemed intent only upon doing their job, which does not include human interaction. In contrast, Dr. Paulson is an absolute gem. She listened, explained my condition in great detail, and checked for final pathology results just before entering the room ( they were not yet in). Later that afternoon she sent me a My Chart message that the results were available and reiterated her professional opinion and assessment of them. The message was as personalized as I would expect from my interactions with her, including addressing me by my preferred name and signing with her first name. This experience almost makes me hope I have more ENT problems in the future!

Dr Paulson and staff are the best!

VERY professional and attentive. Highly recommended!

I have no complaints at this time.

This physician was very pleasant and helpful.

The best, but sometimes hard to get into.

Excellent care

She was very professional and explained things to me in a way I could understand

Dr. Paulson is stellar. She saw that the famous Providence system was going to make me wait 2 MONTHS to be seen in order to remove a skin cancer that my dermatologist did not want to try. Dr. Paulson saw this and had me come in within the week, so I am please with her. Not so much with the Provident system. I am not sure if my message to my primary provider on MyChatt helped this process or if it was not needed, but my primary physician ( Dr. Cataldo) was aware of the appointment being advanced and messaged me such. He too is superior at reading and responding to his patients.

Dr Paulsen gave me excellent care, she communicated my results after my successful surgery she performed. All appts were perfectly timed. I'm grateful to her!

Very friendly and thorough.

He was a very caring and concerned, Dr.She answered all of my questions thoroughly and made sure I understood her answers

We are short of doctors in Humboldt Co so have to wait a little for an appointment, but other than that, the care was excellent!

Dr Paulson is an amazing doctor. She gave me something I was not able to do before. She changed my life for the better.

I got in on time, talked with Dr Paulson, and she cleaned my problematic ear.

I fell and broke my nose so time Was at the essence it had to be fixed quickly and they made it happen and I'm so grateful

This doctor was the most unprofessional I've ever been to, she cut me off mid questions, twice as trying to explain something to her and she cut me off and didn't want to hear, or care

Dr Paulson and her Np are great.

Dr Paulson is a gift. If we could clone her we should! She is the sweetest, kindest, gentlest, most thoughtful and considerate person I know, outside of my husband. She listens closely, considers all the avenues of treatment and advocates for you when your fears need addressing. My husband and I both feel blessed that she is our ENT.

Dr. Paulson is wonderful and so is her staff. She answered all of my questions. My surgery is scheduled for 10/10. Dr, Paulson is wonderful.

The Dr worked quickly and efficiently .

I just love Dr. Paulson!

Allgood

Dr. Paulson shows me empathy and concern during every appointment. She is easy to understand and conveys the necessary information in a clear manner. I am happy to have Dr. Paulson's care and medical advice.

This experience was the best it could possibly be.

This was a visit with a specialist as I have ongoing issues with my sinuses. The doctor was very good at showing me my CT Scan and explaining how my previous surgeries impacted my issues and why she would not recommend any further surgery. She had an explaination for one possible infection issue that re-enforced my own understanding and she agreed to provide further care when I have my next sinus problem. I really liked her even though this was only my third visit with her. She had clearly read all of Dr. Hunter's notes in my file.

Dr Paulson and her staff are outstanding. I felt heard and well cared for. Dr Paulson is proactive and intent on solving my sinus issues. I have already recommended her to family and friends.

I love Dr. Paulson!

All good. Pleased with the doctor's concern.

My experience was great!

Everything was very positive. I'm very happy with my care.

I have been receiving excellent care from Dr Paulson.

Dr Paulson's practice is excellent. She's caring and knowledgeable. Humboldt is lucky to have her.

Dr. Paulson was the best provider we have had experience with at Providence. She was kind and had a good bed side manor but also was very matter of fact and didn't sugar coat anything.

The Dr saw me in a timely manner, and efficiently cleaned my ear.

This was our first visit to establish continued care within the ENT practice. I felt it was a very good appointment with a knowledgeable provider who looked at the notes from the doctor who left the pratice.

The provider was very informative and willing to hear me. Dr. Paulson was very empathetic toward my medical issue and voiced her support for my surgery, which was relieving and comforting as this is only my second surgery. I feel comfortable with her and feel like I can ask questions which can be intimidating at a doctors office. I'm grateful to have been approved for surgery.

Dr. Paulson is the best. As I understand it, ENTs are becoming a rarity in Humboldt County so I'm especially glad she is here.

Dr Paulson and staff are wonderful

I had a minor surgical removal on my scalp. Dr.P was exceptional!

I have gladly recommended Dr Paulson to several people and know of one person she recently treated as a result. She is quite professional and I had complete faith in her expertise. My surgery yielded results far better than I expected and have significantly improved my quality of life. Thank you!

My ear routinely gets plugged up. Dr Korenstein referred me to Dr Paulson when a simple ear wash did not unplug it. Both were very helpful in getting it cleared.

I have total confidence in Dr Paulson
