About Us
Dr. Matt Niesen
Getting to know my patients on a personal level and making a connection with them is incredibly rewarding for me. I want my patients to know me as their partner. Together we will work to understand their diagnosis and treatment options, allow adequate time for education and discussion, and work together to choose their best treatment option. I will be there for every step of the journey.
In my spare time I like to spend time with my wife and our five children. We are huge Badger fanatics and we love to travel and follow the team. I also have a passion for coaching and youth sports, including coaching my kids teams in football and basketball. Life is busy, but I wouldn’t want it any other way!
