UofU Patient April 27, 2013
All excellent.
UofU Patient April 03, 2013In regards to the medication issue, I was given good information about weening myself off Kepra, but only after I asked a question about it. I'm not sure he would have considered telling me anything else about it on his own even though the nurse's assistant had already notated in the chart that I was still taking this medication.
UofU Patient April 03, 2013I am very pleased with the time the doctors have taken to explain, answer questions, and discuss future care of my condition. I am very happy with the results of today's visit. I am very confidant and pleased with the expertise and care of the doctors.
UofU Patient April 01, 2013The care provider that removed the staples recommended that if I had difficulty with BM's that I should contact ER. That proved to be an excellent suggestion which blessed my life.
UofU Patient March 01, 2013I enjoyed conversing with the medical staff and the Doctors. They were friendly, caring of me and my family, and clear in their explanations.

UofU Patient October 03, 2012I felt like I wasn't able to spend much time with Dr. Cauldwell and that would be my only complaint. He seemed like he had t rush though things
UofU Patient October 02, 2012Dr. Couldwell has been very informative and educational about our experience. I had some interest in the actual procedure and should have asked more questions about the process of my surgery. He is a busy man and at times, I felt because of this that we needed to be respectful of his time. Would love some time to have they type of discussion that takes place over a lunch meal asking questions about my condition.
