UofU Patient March 07, 2013I was very satisfied with Dr. Glasgow's care - he cared not just for my well being but also that of my daughter who is my caretaker. Stomach surgery is a serious surgery and the post op care is a great deal. I felt we were very well informed about it, orally and in written form. Thanks Dr. Glasgow for taking care of me and for me the beautiful incision that I now bear on my belly; it is very smooth.
UofU Patient February 19, 2013Dr. Glasgow is a very patient physician - he had to put up with my daughter's questions, which were not few. He explained to her and me in detailed manner the aftermath of the surgery and the care that would be needed throughout the recovery period. I knew he was an unusual physician when he visited me on a SATURDAY! Who said that bedside manners were a thing of the past? Dr. Glasgow is a living example of what a physician should be, without concern for the age, education or social status of a patient. I wam very fortunate he performed the GI surgery on me. Thank you.
