If I don't improve then he will take other measures. The nurse also took good notes about my condition before the doctor came in.
UofU Patient December 18, 2012Good experience, although, when I tried to call back about pain medication, I had to call three different times. When I asked for a prescription the doctor was not willing to accommodate my request.
UofU Patient December 14, 2012I NEVER give anyone a 5 this Dr is awesome
UofU Patient December 12, 2012I dont even know where to start...Dr. Maack was great, I have never felt so comfortable about my son having his first surgery and looking forward to the follow up because i knew it was gonna be the best care and Dr, Maack shows his concerns and care to his patients,I would definatley recommend him for any surgery or care He is a Awesome guy!!!

UofU Patient November 19, 2012I am so impressed with Dr. Maak- he is kind and thoughtful and makes every effort to answer questions, and gives me plenty of opportunity to ask questions!
UofU Patient November 16, 2012Althought I talked about my pain and the doctor worked to diagnose the pain, he didn't discuss plans to reduce or eliminate the pain. I had to bring up this topic on the way out. Even though I was scheduling an appointment for the next day with the physician that he wanted to refer me to he prescribed a medication (Lyrica) that takes could take 5-10 days to reach a theraputic level for the pain. The next doctor felt the issue was different and Lyrica would not be helpful. That was a waste of money. Did the doctor know that it would take that long to get relief with this medications. The pharmacist did not mention that it would take this long either.
UofU Patient November 16, 2012Dr. Maak is excellent at explanations of what is going on in the knee and how it affects you. He is clear and concise and makes sure you understand exactly what is going on. If you don't he will take the time to clear up any extra questions

He totally calmed my fears and listened to me and helped me come up with a plan that did not involve surgery until we had tried all other options. He explained things extremely well in comparison to other doctors that I saw before about the same issue. I felt completely comfortable at my visit.
UofU Patient October 01, 2012appreciated the time he took to talk about the situation with the osteoarthritis and the damage that has been done, and what needs to be done. He didn't push for an immediate surgery date but said that eventually to have better comfort and ability to move better that surgery will be necessary.
