UofU Patient December 26, 2012
Dr. Whitehead spent close to an hour discussing my situation with both my wife and me. As a result we both left feeling confident that his recommendations were proper and we both felt at ease.
UofU Patient October 15, 2012When the doctor finally came to see me, I felt better about the wait and what I learned.
UofU Patient October 09, 2012he was down to earth
UofU Patient October 08, 2012It is a wonderful experience to have physicians and staff knowledgeable and informative. HHT is a rare genetic disease, Most professionals have no knowledge of the disease. A good experience!
UofU Patient October 02, 2012In the last year, I have been at several medical facilities for both myself and my mother. We've been to Stanford, UCLA, Marin General Hospital, Kaiser. University of Utah far exceeded the care and courtesy of any of those facilities. I've never had a better experience than I did at Utah.
UofU Patient October 02, 2012Thanks DR. Whitehead and Julie for being understanding and helpful.
UofU Patient September 24, 2012Both Drs. Whitehead and Yen were very intent in listening to my questions. I was pleased with the amount of time that Dr. Whitehead spent with me, making sure that I understood the possibilities in treatment and the pros and cons of each option. Great team of physicians.
UofU Patient September 17, 2012Dr. Whitehead and Dr. McDonald were amazing. They answered all my questions and helped me understand the importance of getting screened. Dr. Whitehead explored all possible reasons for my symptoms and kept an open mind.
UofU Patient September 12, 2012All were excellent
UofU Patient September 04, 2012We really appreciated the time spent to answer our questions and we didn't feel rushed through our visit, that was impressive since we know how busy you are.
UofU Patient July 30, 2012It gives great confidence and makes you feel better when the caregiver spends the time necessary to do or explain things and doesn't treat you like a number. The discussions were informative and very helpful to understand the situation.
UofU Patient July 24, 2012Dr. Whitehead was excellent in our dealings.
UofU Patient March 15, 2012I was really impressed with Dr. Whitehead! I had a bad experience with one of his collegues in Cardiology and was looking for another provider when someone that I work with, one of Dr. Whitehead's patients, recommended I go see him. So I made an appointment and I'm so glad I did! Dr. Whitehead explained everything about my bicuspid aaortic valve and told me different options of things out there to treat/monitor it. He also went the extra mile and had me get an MRI to just make sure everything else was looking ok and I really appreciated that. It showed me that he really cared. :) So yes I would definitely recommend him to others!
UofU Patient March 15, 2012was very thorough in explaining everything.
UofU Patient March 08, 2012Dr. Whitehead is totally professional and efficient . Always pleasant.
UofU Patient March 01, 2012I'm not sure if Dr Whitehead was distracted by other patients (I'm sure he has many thoughts going through his head. He seemed a little distracted arty first when our visit started but as the appointment went on he was great.
UofU Patient February 29, 2012Dr Whithead takes good care of the patient .
UofU Patient February 16, 2012Very good experience
UofU Patient January 26, 2012The doctor got called out during the visit and he was gone almost 45 minutes. It would have been better to let us come back.
