UofU Patient May 15, 2013
everything has been great prior to surgery.
UofU Patient May 13, 2013Dr. Orlandi is the best doctor I have ever had
UofU Patient April 30, 2013I have already recommended Dr. Orlandi to others that I know that are suffering with problems similar to mine. I know that he does not need to expand his practice, but I appreciate having a doctor with his expertise available. I am hopeful of a positive outcome.
UofU Patient April 22, 2013If I have to come back I will definitely come back to this office and to Dr. Orlandi. Everyone in that office were friendly and I felt I was in excellent hands while I was there.
UofU Patient March 17, 2013As I expressed in my earlier comments, I was so impressed with every person I encountered in this office both prior to and during my appointment with Dr. Orlandi. The experience was head and shoulders above most doctor's appointments I've had in my life. They were such great people and the environment was so welcoming and comfortable that I'm almost sorry I don't need to go back right away.
UofU Patient March 11, 2013This was a very good experience and I felt very well taken care of.
UofU Patient February 26, 2013Dr Orlandy was very helpful and courteous.
UofU Patient February 16, 2013Did not explain post-op complications
UofU Patient January 23, 2013It was very prompt service to the point and see what happens I am satisfied
UofU Patient January 14, 2013A very " Can Do " professional Doctor with a concern for people attitude.
UofU Patient November 16, 2012I wish the Resident was my doctor because he actually seemed interested in helping me. Dr Orlandi, on the other hand appear not to care and certainly had not read my records or the patient info sheet I filled out when I arrived in his office. He said he could not help me but gave me his business ucard if I had any questions. I totally understand why he thought he could not help me but his demeanor did not reflect it at all. He was very dismissive while the Resident expressed concern. I left feeling lost about what to do next with my problem.
UofU Patient October 26, 2012Dr Orlandi is a very competent doctor. I would recommend him to anyone.
UofU Patient October 25, 2012Dr. Orlandi even called a couple of times with follow up answers and was very quick to respond to my many questions
UofU Patient October 19, 2012Dr. Orlandi came very highly recommeded and I would very definitely, enthusiastically and cheerfully pass that recommendation on!
UofU Patient October 10, 2012Dr. Orlandi is great! He seems extremely knowledgeable/competent. He is very helpful in explaining everything going on and I feel confident in going to him for my care.
UofU Patient October 05, 2012dr. orlandi is great, i am very happy he is my dr. i have all confidence in him
UofU Patient October 02, 2012Awesome care!!!!!
UofU Patient September 24, 2012Dr. Orlandi and his nurse Becky are amazing!
UofU Patient September 10, 2012Both the resident and Dr. Orlandi were wonderful and detailed in their explanations. Dr. Orlandi could sense that I was very nervous, and spent extra time making sure I was clear on my options, and understood what was happening. I have already recommended him to friends!
UofU Patient September 04, 2012We always feel like Dr. Orlandi cares about what is going on and is concerned for our well being. He is also a great patient advocate and helped us getting in to another specialist our daughter needed. Dr. Orlandi and Becky have been a tremendous force for improvement in our daughter's health. We are very grateful.
UofU Patient August 23, 2012It may have been the singularly best encounter I've ever experienced for a medical appointment of any sort. I was wowed with the upbeat nature of the entire medical office, and clearly impressed with the knowledge and expertise of the medical staff. Everyone was so extremely caring and concerned; layman's language was used; and there was an air of real sincerity -- from everyone.
UofU Patient August 23, 2012I would recommend Dr. Orlandi to others.
UofU Patient August 14, 2012I already have refered someone to Doctor Orlandi!
UofU Patient July 30, 2012Dr. Orlandi projects confidence, and does not "talk down" to me, as I am an informed patient about my issue, and helps me understand what is going on.
UofU Patient July 30, 2012Uniformely superb experience with Dr. Orlandi and his staff.
UofU Patient July 24, 2012Dr Orlandi is one of the best and most friendly doctors i have met, and i have met several due to my extensive medical histroy and living in multiple locations in and outside of Utah.
UofU Patient July 23, 2012Dr. Orlandi explained that my fears of the psuedomonas going to my heart or brain were unnecessary in my case and that I could just use an over the counter sinus flush with vinegar (which pseudomonas does not like).
UofU Patient July 20, 2012Dr Orlandi is an excellent doctor. Having a choice to go to any doctor in the US, I will always come to Salt Lake to see Dr. Orlandi. In doing so, I know I am getting the very best medical care from him.
UofU Patient July 13, 2012Dr Orlandi is very good at communicating, doing the surgery, and checking results of his surgery. I have recommended him to several people.
UofU Patient June 25, 2012I have been very pleased with my visits with Dr. Orlandi. He seems very professional and extremely knowledgeable. I am pleased that he explains everything to me in a way that the medical jargon doesn't get in the way and I feel like I can understand what he tells me so that I leave feeling informed about my medical condition. Dr. Orlandi also comes across as very confident, which is comforting when prepping myself for another surgery. I would definitely recommend him to someone else if opportunity presented itself.
UofU Patient June 15, 2012Dr Orlandi found a problem that I had been suffering from for years. It was so wonderful to find that my headaches were not just in my imagination. There was a cause for all that pain I was experiencing in my head, face, teeth, etc. I can smell so much better. I now smell things I have never smelled before and this has opened an awareness for me. It is so great. Also, I now have improved in my sleep apnea. It went from a 7 to a 1, since the surgery. Hopefully, other problems I have, health wise, may improve. Giving me a better quality of life. Thanks!
UofU Patient June 04, 2012Wish the doctor would have explained what he meant by when I return in July if the loss of taste and bitter taste when eating or drinking anything sweet is still bothering me, more aggressive treatment will be considered.
UofU Patient May 15, 2012Dr. Orlandi and his staff are amazing!
UofU Patient May 11, 2012When I explained that I was fairly well read as a layman, the doctor treated me as an intelligent person and answered my questions without "dumbing it down", which I very much appreciated.
UofU Patient April 24, 2012Love Dr. Orlandi. He is great!
UofU Patient March 27, 2012Dr. Orlandi was friendly and competent. I appreciated his warm bedside manner and his positive attitude. Thank you Dr. Orlandi for being kind to your patients.
UofU Patient March 23, 2012Great doctor
UofU Patient March 23, 2012I had good experiences all the way around!
UofU Patient March 02, 2012Dr. Orlandi was very friendly and thoroughly explained the procedure, he told me step by step what he was going to do before performing it so that I knew what to expect. Have great confidence in him.
