Didn't seem to really know what was wrong with my eye

April 29, 2013

My son loved the doctor, which was a big plus

April 22, 2013

Dr. Poor is awesome! We were there for just a simple medication refill appointment. He made sure all my questions were answered and that we were happy with current medication. He took the time to discuss whether we needed to try other things or if the current med is working. He could have just signed a new script and sent us away.

April 01, 2013

Dr. Poor is outstanding.

March 27, 2013

I had to ask for meds for my nausea, because he didn't offer anything. He told me that he ruled out appendicitis...(which was obvious, seeing as I have already had my appendix out). He basically sent me away telling me to drink gatorade. Didn't check for influenza A or B. I felt like I could have been my own doctor.

March 26, 2013

This was a follow up visit for an emergency room visit 4 days earlier, Dr. Poor did a great job of looking over my ER visit notes and discussing treatment and future follow up to check progress

February 14, 2013

Dr. Poor is a very approachable and friendly person. He always seems glad to see you and is polite and reassuring. I have been to several UUHC physicians since I changed my insurance and a couple of them shouldn't be practicing medicine due to the outward lack of interest in my needs.

January 29, 2013

I expected to be shuffled through as I have my entire adult life by every doctor I have ever seen. What I actually experienced was the most meaningful health consultation of my life. Thank you Dr. Poor.

December 17, 2012

You are lucky to have Dr. Poor as a physician with the U. I have followed him from his previous clinic because I feel very comfortable with him and confident in his abilities. Also, he has an incredible bed-side manner.

December 17, 2012

Dr. Poor is a very good emissary for University Health Care and now that it has been some time since my visit, I am well again and I owe it to his diagnosis and care. I had been in at another University clinic several weeks before and what was provided there didn't seem to help anywhere near as much as Dr. Poor.

We had to freeze a wart off my son's finger. Even though he was screaming and crying, Dr. Poor was very patient in waiting for him to calm down between freezes. I feel like Dr. Poor is going to be great as our new family physician.

I've never felt so taken care of by a doctor before. I'm very happy with Dr. Poor.

October 01, 2012

Dr Poor was very informative and pleasant to talk to.

September 10, 2012

He didn't take me seriously because my pain was abnormal and he ran an unnecessary test, then gave no follow up recommendations. I felt like I was just left on my own, still having the problem. I won't be seeing him again.

September 04, 2012

The care provider was very rushed. He did not spend much time with me and was not very available for questions. He was not yet confident in the computer system or patient care.
