UofU Patient June 06, 2013
I'm always asked for recommendations on Plastic Surgeons I always recommend Dr. Rockwell above anyone else. I've had a few average and one horrible doctor in this field I would not go to anyone else at this point.
UofU Patient June 03, 2013Dr. Rockwell takes whatever time is needed to make sure I understand my post-care before I leave his office. He explains the reasons for the care in great detail to me. I trust Dr. Rockwell completely and have had two surgeries with him because of his great care pre, during, and post process. He is a very caring doctor and wants your surgery to be as successful as you do. I always enjoy meeting with Dr. Rockwell because he puts my mind at ease, and he is a pleasant man to talk to. If I consider another surgery, I will not hesitate to call Dr. Rockwell. Lastly, I have passed around Dr. Rockwell's card and have told many people about him. I believe Dr. Rockwell is one of the best, if not the best, plastic surgeon in the valley.
UofU Patient May 27, 2013Dr. Rockwell already has done some work on me. He is top notch.
UofU Patient May 13, 2013This was a cosmetic appointment and I usually know what I like done but this time the provider suggested another tactic and my results are even better than before.
UofU Patient April 15, 2013Dr Rockwell was great! He has been a wonderful doctor from the very start. He does great work as well.
UofU Patient March 13, 2013Had an infection, but my dermatologist helped me with it instead of the surgeon. I was a little disappointed with Dr. Rockwell's laid back approach to not needing anything for my surgical wound. He has done this for a long time however and I know he knows more than I do about healing.
UofU Patient March 04, 2013I always appreciate Dr. Rockwell taking the time to listen to my concerns and explain things very well.
UofU Patient February 25, 2013Dr. Rockwell always spends plenty of time with me answering questions and adding comments based on his years of experience in the plastic surgery field.
UofU Patient February 25, 2013communication between patient and all the parties that were involved in her care taking was poor.
UofU Patient December 31, 2012We knew we needed a follow up (from the initial hospital ER visit). What we were there for was entirely different than what we had been told the follow up was going to be about. Thought we were coming for a cast, and possible manipulation. Were told when there that surgery was not necessary. Total surprise. Information and care was good at appointment, but not at all what we were expecting.
UofU Patient December 03, 2012to expensive
UofU Patient November 28, 2012He made sure that we understood everything
UofU Patient November 27, 2012Dr. Rockwell was very professional. Answered all of my questions and did so in a very kind manner.
UofU Patient November 26, 2012Doctor Rockwell is very thorough and professional. What I appreciated the most was the methodical & caring way he explained things, and brought in other resources and doctors to make sure the best care and solution was being provided. I am very satisfied with Doctor Rockwell.
UofU Patient November 12, 2012excellent communications, superb outcome to date.
UofU Patient November 05, 2012Dr. Rockwell is a wonderful doctor. I would recommend him to anyone.
UofU Patient October 15, 2012Dr. Rockwell saw me for a minor post-surgical problem that he easily fixed, since my Dr. was out of town. Dr. Agarwal was kind enough to contact him and make arrangements beforehand.
UofU Patient October 15, 2012the doc. wouldn't answer our questions very promptly and he felt like we had to some what decipher what he was telling us. he did good surgery work but his patient doc. interaction could use some work..
UofU Patient September 17, 2012I have already recommended this doctor to others, and I am planning to return to have my eyes done. Dr. Rockwell is very patient, knowledgeable, and speaks to you honestly. I feel very comfortable asking him any question (s) I have bothering me.
UofU Patient August 09, 2012Dr. Rockwell is amazing! I feel I can talk to him about anything and feel comfortable doing so. He takes time and explains everything that needs to be done. I would recommend him to anyone if need be.
UofU Patient July 24, 2012good
UofU Patient July 16, 2012I felt very confident after meeting with Dr. Rockwell; I'm sure he will do an excellent job. Also, he is very professional and will have to fix the other plastic surgeon's mistakes. I look forward to working with Dr. Rockwell.
UofU Patient June 03, 2012I could never say enough about the kindness and patience Dr. Rockwell showed me during my consultation visit. I have EVERY confidence in having Dr. Rockwell perform the procedure in which, we together, decided upon. Prior to my appointment with Dr. Rockwell, I had done in-depth research regarding procedure options for which I might be a candidate. After my consultation with Dr. Rockwell, he helped me understand the options that were appropriate for my desired outcome--AND my fear factor of anesthesia! My experience with Dr. Rockwell is well beyond: Very Good.
UofU Patient April 25, 2012I am so happy and confident with Dr Rockwell and his staff that I am considering a procedure that I would be financially responsible for. I come up to Salt Lake City from St George for this great care and expertise. This is all worth it to me.
UofU Patient March 30, 2012Dr Rockwell is wonderful, a great doctor
UofU Patient March 09, 2012We liked meeting with Dr Rockwell, and thought he was very knowledgeable about Lyla's foot. He gave us answers to some questions we thought we would never get. I did feel like we had to insist on the surgery though, because he said that she could live life without needing it, and I felt like that was an uncertainty due to the unknown status of the bones in her foot and the buldge that I was worried about.
UofU Patient January 25, 2012Dr. Rockwell was wonderful with my daughter. He did a very fine job!
UofU Patient January 13, 2012very good
