UofU Patient May 06, 2013
The doctor confused me with another patient, then excused herself by saying that she had just reviewed 20 charts before walking in. This was totally understandable but when I called back another time with a question about PT based on new xrays, i was told "the doctor only deals with your low back." She sees me for my neck. I have the sense that I am an invisible person on a conveyor belt.
UofU Patient May 06, 2013I am disappointed with the services that Dr. Hansen provided for me. She spent literally 5 minutes total with me with my two visits combined. She did not explain what my MRI detected- in person, or show the results to me. She showed no concern that I waited for two days for my pain medication- I had to call and pester the staff to pester her for a response on my medications. I felt no concern from Dr. Hansen about the pain I have been in. I was very disappointed. If I could give suggestions - I would say: spend more time explaining whats going on to your patient- dont have the patient be the person to be responsible for calling in their own prescription to YOUR staff, and respond to any concerns of the patient within a reasonable amount of time.
UofU Patient April 18, 2013The only issue I had with the Dr was that she did not introduce herself when she came into the room. In fact she never did introduce her self.
UofU Patient April 08, 2013Thank you, Pamela Hansen, for the extraordinarily personal, sensitive, and professional care. I felt heard, seen, understood, and empowered. Exceptional care!
UofU Patient April 05, 2013Dr. Hansen was wonderful. As was her resident.
UofU Patient March 22, 2013I felt very "brushed over"... unimportant to the doctor. As if she didn't really give a shit about the pain I was feeling.
UofU Patient March 15, 2013All in all a good experience
UofU Patient March 05, 2013I love the attention and care I am shown at the Orthopedic Center! Wonderful staff!
UofU Patient March 01, 2013My main issue was delay in being seen, which took away from fully addressing issue.
UofU Patient January 29, 2013No complaints!
UofU Patient January 13, 2013And I didn't have to get weighed and measured! I'm so tired of that-thank you!
UofU Patient December 30, 2012Will not return to see this care giver. Bedside manners very poor.
UofU Patient December 24, 2012Excellent
UofU Patient December 24, 2012Great care, both in acupuncture and exercise - and a gift to boot!!! Thank you for the headphones, too!
UofU Patient December 17, 2012After describing my symptoms, Dr. seemed to know exactly what to look for, where to look. X-rays were promptly taken and made available. Dr. helped me understand what they showed, what caused my pain, how to attempt to relieve it.
UofU Patient December 14, 2012re. EMG: MD seemed to have little interest in my asking questions about MY body--very cool & abrupt manner. The assistants were appropriate & friendly.
UofU Patient December 05, 2012I am in a lot of pain, and I appreciate the care & attention to detail in helping me. Hopefully this will help over time.
UofU Patient October 29, 2012The doctors and nurses were exceptionally attentive to my needs and compasisonate with my care during the procedure.
UofU Patient July 10, 2012I was being seen for back pain. I have some herniated and bulging discs, on 3 or 4 levels, along with some permanent nerve damage on my left side. I didn't feel like I was believed. I was prescribed physical therapy, which I will do and have done for
UofU Patient July 01, 2012i would never send anyone i know to dr hansen never ever.
UofU Patient June 28, 2012Dr. Hansen is very helpful with a great bedside manner
UofU Patient June 18, 2012Dr Hanson did not offer medication to relieve severe pain. I had to see another doctor later to get pain meds so that I could make it to the airport the next day.
UofU Patient June 05, 2012She took the necessary time with me. She demonstrated a new physical therapy exercise that she wanted me to do -- and when I wasn't sure I understood it, she demonstrated and asked me to do it under her her supervision. She answered all of my questions honestly.
UofU Patient May 11, 2012excellent experience, have already recommended to friends, family and others
UofU Patient May 09, 2012Everyone is very pleasant and friendly but I feel I am wasting the caregiver's time and they are anxious to get on to the next task and next patient
UofU Patient May 01, 2012It was a good appointment; however, I realized after the appointment that I don't actually know what the diagnosis was or have any idea what may have caused the injury. But I am following up with physical therapy and I know I can go back if it doesn't get better.
UofU Patient March 30, 2012I have had two injections, neither of which has worked and little explanation of why it wouldn't and what to do next.
UofU Patient March 21, 2012I felt like Dr. Hansen cared about me, and she is very qualified to provide the best treatment needed.
UofU Patient March 17, 2012My care provider is outstanding and I have complete confidence in him!!!
UofU Patient March 08, 2012Dr. Hansen has always been very concerned and explained all information as well as x-rays, tests, etc., in a way that I can understand. She is never in a hurry, always has time for the patient.
UofU Patient February 14, 2012Dr. Hansen never seems rushed and always takes time to listen and explain treatment and medications.
UofU Patient February 04, 2012I felt that the provider did not listen or hear what my complaint is, I am seeking another opinion
UofU Patient January 11, 2012I feel like I wasn't being heard about the amount of pain I'm in, and was left with no therapy for 2 and 1/2 weeks until my next appointment to deal with the pain. I'll be calling in.
