I take pride in building rapport with my patients. I use my background and knowledge to take the time to not only treat, but also to educate my patients on their condition and answer questions. I truly focus on listening to my patient’s concerns and difficulties and make it a point to ensure that they have all the possible tools from physical therapy that they need to allow them to function better and more independently in their daily lives.
I am originally from New Jersey. I lived in Chicago for 7 years. I moved to Minneapolis in 2013 with my husband Joe. Outside of work, I enjoy outdoor activities including walking, biking, and running. I love to experience new places and travel with my husband when I have the opportunity. I spend time with my family and friends both here in Minneapolis and on the East Coast whenever I get the chance.
I’m very glad Dr. Veen was easy to talk to, seemed very in tuned with what I was saying (an active listener), and didn’t bowl me over with why I was wrong or why she knew so much more (which she does) than me. She let me share my anxiety and then set about describing how “we” were going to tackle diagnosing and treating whatever we found. That was encouraging to me even though some of the discussion was very much anxiety generating. Dr. Veen answered all of our questions and was so comfortable talking to her. She really listened to what we had to say. This was my first time doing a telemedicine appointment and it was very easy and the doctor was as complete as could be without physical interaction. Because of Covid, we had to make appt for a phone visit. We were a little skeptical of this but everything went good. All questions were addressed and a follow up was discussed. Dr. Veen as always gets an A+. I was particularly impressed that the providers came to the waiting room for their patients and escorted them to their offices. Dr Veen gets max points for listening to everything I had to say, seeking my input and developing a mutual plan for next steps. Kudos! Dr. Veen is excellent. I do recommender her to friends!!
