UofU Patient May 14, 2013
I was very happy that he had the courage to disagree with my physical therapist.
UofU Patient May 13, 2013Dr. Gries was excellent.
UofU Patient May 08, 2013I was very impressed with both Doctors and their explanations and answering questions and concerns.
UofU Patient May 06, 2013Dr. Greis was recommended to me by someone I work with. I would recommend him highly.
UofU Patient May 06, 2013Dr. Greis was knowledgeable in knowing what was wrong with my shoulder. I've been to two Wyoming Drs, and they couldn't figure out what was wrong. If only they would of taken an MRI; Like Dr Greis ordered.
UofU Patient April 29, 2013Would definately recomend to others.
UofU Patient April 22, 2013good
UofU Patient April 16, 2013no bad experience. Dr. very knowledgeable.
UofU Patient April 06, 2013After the surgery, Dr. Gries didn't come out and talk to my parents, rather he just called them on the phone. They were in the waiting area. It was odd he didn't just come out and talk to them.
UofU Patient April 02, 2013I believe there could be more information shared with a patient concerning the affect and frequency some of the drugs given that are foreign or not used frequently by the patient.
UofU Patient March 18, 2013My experience from start to finish has been nothing but excellent
UofU Patient March 05, 2013I could not have asked for much better attention and care.
UofU Patient March 04, 2013would not consider going anywhere else for ortho
UofU Patient February 20, 2013Not super personable, but he was a great doctor and we would recommend him.
UofU Patient February 19, 2013I trust my life with Dr. Greis...
UofU Patient February 19, 2013I spent more time with the resident than I did with the doctor. Dr. Greis was nice but did not give me a sense of confidence that he could fix my problem of that he was really even interested in fixing my problem. I felt more like an annoyance.
UofU Patient February 11, 2013Very likely to recommend to others
UofU Patient February 04, 2013Dr. Greis identified directly with my concerns and questions. He clearly articulated all my options and included me in developing a course of action. I've not felt this comfortable and confident with a physician in some time. I will most definitely recommend him in the future.
UofU Patient February 04, 2013Dr. Greis has been all I hoped for; knowledgeable, empathetic, frank, communicative, and on board with trying to help me reach what some might think are ambitious recovery goals. I think his experience as a sports medicine specialist has given him insight into trying to help the patient get to where he wants to be rather than the focus on all the obstacles that could make the goals unreachable. As a patient I realize I might fall short but I appreciate the fact that if there is a way, Dr. Greis is going to help me find it.
UofU Patient December 20, 2012Just great overall. I have a high confidence level in Dr. Greis
UofU Patient December 17, 2012it was good
UofU Patient December 17, 2012This was a return visit for unrelated problem. I have recommended this care provider on several occasions.
UofU Patient December 05, 2012Fellow and MD were both very friendly
UofU Patient December 04, 2012Dr didn't take note of my previous treatment history and re-recommended something I've already done (which didn't work the first time). I was a bit frustrated and disappointed.
UofU Patient December 03, 2012It all did go pretty quick. The only thing that could have gone better, in retrospect, was talking through the length of time the surgery was going to take (2 weeks out) and things I would/should do to care for the knee and collateral pain. There really were no instructions. Then again, maybe there are none... but it would have been nice to have had a coversation about this.
UofU Patient November 26, 2012Dr. Greis and his team of professionals are top notch. They provide world class healthcare services and an environment centered on the patient. Thank you!
UofU Patient November 20, 2012Great willing to help with my unusual circumstance.
UofU Patient November 15, 2012I feel confident in Dr. Greiss
UofU Patient November 14, 2012good
UofU Patient November 02, 2012De. Greis is an amazing surgeon with wonderful followup care. Would recommend him to all
UofU Patient October 29, 2012Very Good
UofU Patient October 12, 2012extremely pleased with experience
UofU Patient October 09, 2012Exemplary conduct
UofU Patient October 08, 2012Dr. Greis is EXCELLENT! I have every confidence in him and followed his instructions carefully. I am doing better than ever expected and and am very happy with the results.
UofU Patient October 03, 2012the doctor was recommended to me by a friend, I found the physician's manner with me and his knowledge to be very first rate
UofU Patient October 03, 2012Good experience
UofU Patient October 02, 2012He listened and talked to myself and my wife, explaining my problem very thouroughly.
UofU Patient October 01, 2012I was concerned that I might need to have surgery to be back the mobility in my knee, we discussed other possibilities and I ended up having a shot to see if it would help with the minor pain I was having.
UofU Patient September 11, 2012Discouraged about pain I'm still having in my shoulder one year after surgery. Hoping it goes away eventually. Thought it would be better than this after one year. Expressed concern to Dr. Greise.
UofU Patient September 10, 2012Dr Greis and his staff are awesome. Courteous, friendly and professional always.
UofU Patient September 10, 2012Dr. Greis is a great doctor. He explains things very well. This last visit he gave me the option of getting an x-ray done or not and explained the benefit vs. personal cost to me. I appreciated that he didn't just order an x-ray knowing that it may not help me learn anything new about my knee pain.
UofU Patient August 21, 2012This is my second experience with Dr. Greis. I would have asked for someone else if I hadn't been satisfied the first time. I appreciate someone who is not condescending and who discusses matters as if we were just discussing matters of interest to both of us.
UofU Patient August 20, 2012Dr. Greis just keeps getting better and better - more friendly, more outgoing; or maybe it is that I am getting to know him better as well. His surgical skill set is amazing, and I proudly tell everyone who it is that did my rotator-cuff repair. Thank you.
UofU Patient August 14, 2012Doctor Greis is the man! He truly cares about his patients and is very thorough with his explanations.
UofU Patient August 14, 2012Dr. Greis is the best. Wonderful person and fantastic physician. Have recommended him to others.
UofU Patient August 13, 2012I have recommended Dr. Greis to friends with shoulder pain. My experience has been excellent, especially when compared to those who have had the same rotator cuff surgery.
UofU Patient August 07, 2012Dr. Greis is very good at explaining things and showing care for my healing
UofU Patient August 06, 2012I have nothing but good comments to offer about Dr. Greis and his staff. They have always acted in such a professional manner.
UofU Patient July 31, 2012Very skillful crew!
UofU Patient July 17, 2012Dr, Greis is an excellent communicator. He anticipates my concerns, patiently answers my questions, and views me as a unique individual.
UofU Patient July 09, 2012He is the best shoulder doctor inte west. I have checked. I used to work in surgery as a scrub nurse. No one is doing anything surgical/invasive unless they are "the best".
UofU Patient July 03, 2012Excellent
UofU Patient June 26, 2012Dr. Gries was very courtious and explained my situation with my arthritic knees. He explained the treatments available what I should consider for treatment in the future.
UofU Patient June 25, 2012Bottom line, my experience with Dr. Greis was not the best.... I felt as if he did not listen to my concerns and above all did not help me to address them so I can move toward as full a recovery as possible. On a bright note, I was very satisfied with the service I received in physical therapy and hand therapy.
UofU Patient June 12, 2012very professionnal
UofU Patient June 04, 2012My experience with Dr. Greis and his assistants prior to surgery and to my last visit have been excellent!
UofU Patient May 09, 2012This was a very good experience and all my questions/concerns were answered. I feel good about the decision made.
UofU Patient April 21, 2012Dr Greis is an excellent physician, professional and personable. I would recommend him to a family member, friend, or colleague, in fact I already have done so.
UofU Patient April 18, 2012Doctor didn't seem to believe what I was telling him as I described my pain and restrictions.
UofU Patient April 11, 2012Dr. Greis is incredibly sought after so I know his time is tight, but I always feel as though he's ready to move on. He is also incredibly intelligent but speaks to his assistants (rather than this patient) in words that I, many times, have to go back and look up afterwards. My last visit I felt as though I had to pull him into the next step; although once I stated my wish, he was very agreeable to move forward.
UofU Patient April 11, 2012Excellent experience!
UofU Patient April 11, 2012Was unimpressed with how I was treated I would never recommend that place to anyone!!!!!!!
UofU Patient March 31, 2012There is no one better than Dr. Greis... I owe him my life.
UofU Patient March 24, 2012really nice to be reassured and get the final word on the status of michaels shoulder
UofU Patient February 25, 2012Very knowledgeable, thoughtful, helpful. This was a second opinion and it was well worth it.
UofU Patient February 18, 2012Greis is the best
UofU Patient February 15, 2012AGAIN, MY EXPERIENCE WAS AMAZING
UofU Patient February 08, 2012I was treated very well, received excellent instructions and received very good answers to my questions.
UofU Patient February 04, 2012Dr. Greis is the best..... Enough said :)
UofU Patient January 25, 2012Dr. Greis spent less than a minute examining me and then did what every doctor I've ever had has done - he told me it wasn't there. His assistant is way better at this than he is.
UofU Patient January 14, 2012I am currently looking for another care provider
UofU Patient January 14, 2012excellent care
UofU Patient January 04, 2012how can I rank higher than 5?!!
UofU Patient January 04, 2012Dr. Greise has a great empathetic, but confident bedside approach to his patient's. He seemed to be highly experienced in his diagnosis, and was genuine and personal when presenting the findings and treatment options.
