Dr. Craig Carlson

I was a patient of Dr. Carlson's for over twenty years. He took great care of me, and my family as it grew. He was more than a Doctor, he became a great friend. I was very touched when he traveled to our area to attend graduation ceremonies for our daughter.

I was saddened to see this in the GR Press on Sunday evening. I didn't see it in time to be able to attend his visitation at least.
He was a great deal of help to me when I was in pain and we were able to be friends as well as doctor and patient due to my many visits for relief.

I'm so sorry for your loss as a family and pray you all have good memories to help you through and beyond this difficult...
