I have been under Dr. Fults care for about 20 years and find him most competent, friendly and informative. His assistant, Melody Fairborne, is also highly rated in my opinion.

Overall, excellent. However it wasn't clear that the physician had looked at the details of the path report before entering the room. This produced a brief period of confusion about the nature of the problem and what needed to be done.

The neurosurgeon answered all questions, thoroughly explained risks and benefits of surgery. He was unhurried, thoughtful, fully present and engaged and revealed a temperament that gave us great confidence in his competence.

We traveled here from Wyoming. When we put out an email to friends and family, 4 people said go to Huntsman because of their experience. We listened and we are glad we did. We will recommend Huntsmen to anyone in need.
