I was super impressed of my PA Sarah, she was knowledgeable about what she was doing, she knew I am a nurse, when she explained to me my MRI result, she didn't skip over material & presuming I should know because I'm a RN, instead, she answered my questions with clarity, she discussed pro's & con's of treatment plans, signs & symptoms of my condition worsening. I walked out of the office feeling great to have all that information she gave me to take care of myself & also knowing when to seek help. She delivered her care professionally with a caring heart, it's awesome ! Thank you !

This was my second opinion for a neck injury sustained at work on 8/18/2018. My initial doctor misdiagnosed my injury and was allowing my neck to heal with a traumatic atlantoaxial rotatory subluxation. Sarah spent several minutes going over my multiple scans to explain my injuries and also asked Dr. Bisson to come in the exam room to plan the best course of action for fixing my neck! After six weeks of little to no explanation from my Reno provider, my visit at the U of U was a breath of fresh air! Thank you Sarah and Dr. Bisson!

UofU Patient
September 24, 2018

Sara McEvoy was very thorough describing a condition that has flummoxed me for years. I learned a lot about my problem -- its cause, probably surgical procedure, and all my questions were answered. Wonderful lady!

UofU Patient
September 13, 2018
Sara was able to explain my issue to me without talking down to me in terms I understood. No other doctor had done that. It was much appreciated.

UofU Patient
September 13, 2018
Exceptonal care. Very clear explanations.

UofU Patient
September 06, 2018

Sara explained this better than anyone has so far even doctors. She showed us X-rays and models so we could understand. This was outstanding and helped us make an informed decision.

UofU Patient
June 23, 2018
I travelled from California to Salty Lake City for this visit. It was well worth it. Previously, I had never been treated with such a degree of respect, concern, and warmth by a medical as I was at this visit. The provider took an extremely thorough history and treated me like an intelligent human being, explaining everything to me vis-a-vis my problem and recommendations for the future. I was left fully understanding my problem and the provider's recommendations. I was so impressed ewith the care I received that I am returning to Salt Lake City for an appointment with a different specialist to whom this provider referred me.

UofU Patient
June 22, 2018
We appreciated what Dr Yi did for us in the past, but she has moved on. We had our appointment with Sara McEvoy and we were very impressed with the options and advice she gave us.

UofU Patient
May 14, 2018
Sara is truly exceptional in her patient care and in her willingness to explain everything.

UofU Patient
May 11, 2018
This was a second opinion, and the PA caught an entire major part of the diagnosis that the previous provider heard missed that would have left my most obvious symptoms untreated.

UofU Patient
May 01, 2018
I was late to my appointment and she still took time to see me. It was a very stressful day and I need to see her to get cleared to rerurn to normal activity. I was beyond surprised and so thankful that she took time to see me even though I was 20 minutes late. I am never late but circumstances were not in my favor. She deserves an award!

UofU Patient
March 27, 2018
I have never experienced a doctor spending so much time educating me (I am curious technical and not easy to satisfy). The education delivered was clear detailed and gave me an solid understanding of my condition and ability to make informed decisions. Dr McEvoy and Dr Bisson are an unbelievably well tuned team. The former educates, the latter evaluates risks and helps decision making. Together they are the best team I have ever seen in my many many surgeries. I am awed and grateful

UofU Patient
March 10, 2018
I am extremely pleased with the care I have received. Professional, Knowledgeable and willing to answer all of my questions.

February 13, 2018
I believe the care I received from Sara was top-notch. She was thorough in educating me about my problems and took a lot of time to make sure I understood my options.

Excellent manner, professionalism, explanations, patience

UofU Patient
December 08, 2017
I would have liked it better if the Doctor talked to me before and then they prepped me for the procedure. I just felt very exposed with nothing covering my behind. And they didn't start anything until after the Doctor talked to me.

UofU Patient
December 07, 2017
Sara is one of the kindest and most knowledgeable providers I have worked with. She speaks to me on my level and is very obviously familiar with current research which I appreciate. She listened to and addressed my concerns in an incredibly efficient manner. I'm grateful to have her in my corner.

UofU Patient
November 03, 2017

UofU Patient

she was very informative

UofU Patient

Sara is very smart. And she is also really nice.

UofU Patient
September 17, 2017
If I could rate my experience higher then 5 it would be 100. Sara was fantastic, so down to earth and caring. The way she went over everything and showed me the results of my scan and xrays were way better then the Doctor in Las Vegas I first had when I fractured my C2.

UofU Patient
August 10, 2017

UofU Patient
May 15, 2017
Sent to other doctor's for pain, they didn't want to deal with,little concern about my pain,just told to live with it,that nothing could be done,It seems that now the surgery done,they expect everybody to be the same,and all is well.

UofU Patient

April 20, 2017
Outstanding

UofU Patient
April 14, 2017
My highest regards for Sara. I trust her with my life. She has a superb 'bedside' manner and always has a positive solution. She is always willing to go the extra mile to make sure I feel comfortable with any decision I have to make and makes sure I have all the information I need to understand a diagnosis or procedure/surgery. She is by far one of the best providers the University has on staff.

UofU Patient

UofU Patient

pleasant

UofU Patient
March 23, 2017
I felt Sara was extremely thorough and knowledgeable. I was impressed by the fact that she referred me to another doctor who could better meet my needs as well as give me a second opinion. It's not often that I've encountered surgical personnel that candidly stated I was NOT a candidate for surgical intervention

UofU Patient
January 31, 2017
The PA was excellent as my wife would say i couldn't get better professional help and concern from a physician.

UofU Patient

Sara does an excellent job of listening to concerns. She answers directly the questions asked. She is very sympathetic to the patient's concerns and also positive to find solutions to any existing situations. I have a high level of confidence in her work.

UofU Patient
November 28, 2016
Dr. Mcevoy took the time necessary to discuss and explain my condition including possible treatments and recommendation for follow up treatment. She was very thorough and explained things in a way that made it easy to understand including reasons for the recommended follow up with another provider. I was very impressed that she did not act as if she needed to hurry somewhere else and like I was the most important patient at that moment. I will definitely recommend her.

UofU Patient
November 11, 2016
Sara is outstanding among providers who are outstanding! I appreciate how she can take something so complicated and make it understandable without feeling like I am being talked down to. She is also incredibly kind, which I really appreciate right now.

UofU Patient

UofU Patient
November 07, 2016
Sara and Dr. Bisson are some of the best providers I have had at the U. They are very good at explaining things and completely put me at ease. I know I am in the BEST of care with them.

UofU Patient
November 03, 2016
I'm not sure if this survey is just for the pre-op visit, but I'm addressing my whole surgery experience. There are a few people who stood out to me in several departments, I wish I had last names. When I checked into the hospital for my day before pre-op registration, Josh at the main desk was very helpful. On the day of the surgery, Lisa who put in my IV and attended to my pre-procedure needs and worries was so helpful and kind. Eric and "Dr. Wally" were very informative. After surgery, my room on the third floor (3126?) was attended by many pros. Gloria, Clint, Letti and Sarah were awesome. I do have to say, unfortunately, Karrissa seemed a bit distracted and not very helpful-she actually appeared to be annoyed. Frank and Junior from the kitchen were both like rays of sunshine! Anyway, for a terrible experience (having cervical surgery,) the U of U team made it as pleasant an experience as possible! Sara Mcevoy and Dr. Bisson were top notch! I can't believe I walked out the next day!!

UofU Patient
October 29, 2016
Sara was incredibly knowledgable, reassuring and explained things in depth.

UofU Patient

Sara mcAvoy is excellent, I have complete trust in her care.

UofU Patient
October 07, 2016
I know my provider is busy, however, I have never felt rushed and they always make sure all my questions are answered. I am very confident I am receiving the best and most compassionate care available

UofU Patient
September 29, 2016
McEvoy was spectacular

UofU Patient
September 21, 2016
IF there was a box to check for "Explanations care provider gave you about your problem or condition" that was - 6 Very Very Good, I would have checked it.

UofU Patient
September 07, 2016
Detailed explanation in language I could understand.

UofU Patient
September 06, 2016
Very open & honest. Was very helpful.

Sara is simply extraordinary. The explanations she provided were thorough, thoughtful, graphic and much, much more.

In addition, she is very personable and compassionate besides being gifted and brilliant.

UofU Patient

I cannot describe how happy I am having Sara McEvoy as my care provider. Sara is absolutely wonderful!!!!

UofU Patient
June 15, 2016
Outstanding in every way- have already recommended her to a neighbor with a similar problem!

UofU Patient
May 28, 2016
"Care Provider" to us means primary surgeon. More technical explanation would have been better. Overall, the surgeons were the best we hoped for.

UofU Patient
May 26, 2016
medprovider held my hand while I cried

UofU Patient
May 21, 2016
Dr. MacEvoy has facilitated my healing process by explaining what happened, what's healing, explaining films, and by answering my myriad question -- all the while making me feel like I was the only patient on her schedule. She is a champion!

UofU Patient
May 13, 2016
Dr Bisson and Sara McEvoy were both very informative, knowledgeable, and great at not only explaining my condition and what to expect, but they also really listened to me. Asking further questions so to make sure they understood my symptoms. I liked and was comforted by the way they inner acted. They appear to be a good working team.

UofU Patient
May 12, 2016
We would recommend the Neurosurgeon. But the other doctors we saw after surgery didn't seem as well informed as the surgeon or the anesthesiologist. The questions we were asking about the actual surgery the members of the team were not able to answer or said they would have to get more information. The nurses were very helpful in care and followup instructions.

UofU Patient
May 07, 2016
good

UofU Patient
April 17, 2016
The doctor did not prescribe medication but encouraged me to continue practicing my own ways, such as doing exercise, playing piano....etc.

UofU Patient
April 09, 2016
Very friendly, competent, professional staff. Great explanations. Answered all questions.

UofU Patient

UofU Patient
April 05, 2016
Sara took time to go over everything with me and I did not feel rushed in speaking with her, nor did I feel she was rushed, even though I know (from her staff) that she had some unscheduled delays. She was focused the entire time on my case and I very much appreciated that!

UofU Patient
March 29, 2016
Sara McEvoy took the time to explain my injury, showed films, and answered my many questions. I definitely was heard! Thank you.

UofU Patient
March 28, 2016
Sara Mcevoy was AMAZING. She showed genuine concern, was very thorough, asked the right questions, answered my questions and any concerns and completely validated me. I was afraid to just be hurried and shuffled through the office, but she took her time, I felt no rush AND because of my extreme pain, concern, and the distance I traveled to come, she arranged for me to have the procedure the same day. SHE IS PHENOMENAL. Give this woman a raise. (:

UofU Patient
March 13, 2016
Sarah is impressive. Her technical knowledge and ability to talk through my symptoms to determine what to do next are excellent. She spent the right amount of time to review my MRI and explain what it revealed about my neck. When she left the room, my wife and I looked at each other and simultaneously said "Wow!".

UofU Patient
March 08, 2016
Sara was VERY excellent!!!! She addressed ALL my concerns and put me at ease. Sara was VERY thorough with her explanations to me about my condition. Her "bedside manner" was also excellent. I was VERY impressed with her!!!

UofU Patient
January 11, 2016
Very impressed with the care I received at the neuro center. She went over findings & MRI's with me so I could see exactly what she was looking at which I appreciated. I will definitely recommend the neurology center should the need arise with any friends/family. Additionally the facility was very clean, staff was courteous and all of the employees appeared to work well together.

UofU Patient
January 09, 2016
Sara McEvoy was a great help and explained how she arrived at her diagnoses and then followed with the appropriate tests to ensure her diagnosis was accurate. She then took the extra step of identifying an appropriate physician in our area to continue treatment.

After my meeting with Dr. Bisson, there was never a doubt in my mind that the course of action she was recommending for me was exactly what I needed. Absolutely Professional, Knowledgeable, and Personable. I have no reservations as to her skill and the surgery she is going to perform on me.

UofU Patient

UofU Patient
August 02, 2015
I have told many friends and others about the incredible experience I have had.

UofU Patient
July 23, 2015
The only question that I have is why this particular appointment was more than $100 higher than the last visit.

UofU Patient
July 13, 2015
Sara McEvoy was very informative and explained her findings thoroughly. Both my husband and I were appreciative of her time spent in my behalf, even though there was nothing to be done surgically to relieve my pain.

We felt like a good deal of time and explanation went into this visit and really appreciate the care and consideration given to all of our dad's needs. Sarah was thorough and explained things so that both our dad and we could understand them and gave us the best options for making decision.

UofU Patient
March 17, 2015
She was great! She wasnt in a hurry. She explained everything in detail and acted like I was her only patient. I cant say enough good about my experience at the clinic.

UofU Patient

Sara is amazing. She took the time to review my MRI in depth, and explain things in terms that I could understand.

UofU Patient
March 10, 2015
The care provider and their team are very excellent providers especial Sara Mcvoy and Dr. Meic Schmidt are highly intelligent and very excellent in their proving care.

UofU Patient
March 09, 2015
Good experience with Drs. Schmidt and Dr. McEvoy wonderful. Hospital morning and day shift were inaccurate with the Dr's directions and did not adhere to what my Drs said was to be done and then acting like that was my own problem.

UofU Patient

UofU Patient
January 22, 2015
Sara McElvoy is OUTSTANDING!!! She is extremely knowledgeable and her "bedside" manor is exceptional. Even though I did not like one of her answers, she told the truth and did not sugar coat it. Hard to swallow, but I appreciated the candor and the way in which she treated me as an informed patient. By far one of the BEST doctors on your staff and should be recognized accordingly.

UofU Patient
January 12, 2015
I was SO impressed with this visit. usually I leave Dr's appointments feeling discouraged. I left feeling like I was in such good hands. She took the time to explain everything to me, addressed every concern/symptom I was having, Spoke me to me in language I could understand. I am SO thankful for Sara McEvoy and the excellent care she provides.

I love the way this care provider especially Sara McEvoy was very intelligent and she knows her job very well and explanation was very clear and very understood. I asked her many question about my concern and and worries and she her time to explain them to me so I could understand them and I did understand them. I will always like to see her again and is definately will be very happy to recommend a friend or family to a well known care provider like her.

UofU Patient
December 23, 2014
The PA was so patient and explained everything to us so we understood it. She has gone above and beyond what she had to do for us. Sarah Mcevoy PA took us under her care to advocate between another doctor that was not even in her clinic. We are blessed to have her.

UofU Patient
December 22, 2014
Dr schmidt was not hurried, nice review of scans with me, DDX outlined. NP Sara saw me first and then after and coordinated my care with emphathic efficiency.

UofU Patient
December 18, 2014
We highly respect Sara and Dr. Schmidt and are for ever in their debt for saving my life. Sara always go out of her way to explain the MRI results in a way that we can understand. They are both very caring, friendly, highly educated and knowledgeable. We can't thank them enough for their care.

UofU Patient
December 18, 2014
I have already referred patients to this provider.

UofU Patient
December 06, 2014
I've had other problems that they have helped me with in the past and I'm very confident that they can handle my new problem and they have done very well with my daughter when they saved her life so yes i would tell others that the Dr.s and nurses are the best in the world

UofU Patient

I was how impressed with I was treated. Sara was so amazing in explaining and helping me understand what was going on. When I left I felt so good about everything and felt that I had finally found someone who cared and could help me. Thank you

UofU Patient
September 30, 2014
I felt like both Dr. Schmidt and his physician's assistant were there to answer any questions I had and in no way felt like i was being rushed during my discussion with them.

UofU Patient
September 19, 2014
My doctor/care provider was very knowledgeable of my injury. She was very detailed explaining in a way I could understand the diagnosis of my back. She gave me information I could consider for treatment.

UofU Patient

UofU Patient

You all are a godsend for the patients going thru the "brain tunnel". My hubs and I truly feel like we are being listened to, and that down the way there IS a light at the end of that tunnel. THANK YOU!!

UofU Patient
September 01, 2014
Sara Mcevoy was so caring and thorough in her explanations and research of the X-ray of the conditions, that we have an understanding and vision of the problem which we have not had previously. We also have a plan for treatment and subsequent relief.

UofU Patient
August 27, 2014
I really appreciate how Sara described my MRI in terms that I could understand and see. She took the time to make sure I understood.

UofU Patient
August 20, 2014
Sarah McEvoy was extremly informative. Went over films in depth and made it understable. Very personable.

UofU Patient

All excellent and professional

UofU Patient
August 11, 2014
Dr McEvoy is exceptional. I have been so impressed with her efforts in every aspect of my treatment. She has always been very courteous, professional and perfect at helping me understand my scans and x-rays, always taking as much time as I needed. My experience with Dr McEvoy exceeded my expectations on so many levels. Her knowledge

UofU Patient
August 11, 2014
Sara was very helpful and very caring. Her explanations were very thorough and she made a very nervous situation much easier. Of course hearing a generally positive prognosis helped a great deal.

I have already have recommended to several people.

UofU Patient
July 21, 2014
Didn't seem to want to spend much time discussing how I was doing. Just declared the surgery a success and come back in two months. Here are some exercises you can do.

UofU Patient
July 20, 2014
Very experience came out with the information I needed

UofU Patient
July 07, 2014
We were very impressed with her and Dr. Bisson.

UofU Patient
July 01, 2014
Awesome! I was so happy to learn that I could actually see from the MRI what is happening in my own body, learn how I can help the situation, and not feel overwhelmed or nervous.

UofU Patient
June 21, 2014
Sara Mcevoy, my PA, has excellent communication skills that allowed me to understand what my health needs. She always keeps me informed of my progress and follows up on any of my concerns.

UofU Patient
June 19, 2014
Sara explained everything to me. She called me the next day when more information was gleened from the CT scan. She arranged for me to be seen by an internist, as I had moved and didn't have a primary care doctor in Salt Lake City. I was so happy for her care and understanding. She was great!

UofU Patient
June 16, 2014
Provided good detail about my concerns and answered my questions well.

UofU Patient
June 07, 2014
we appreciated the time spent with us. All our questions were answered courteously and to the extent so that we could understand the problems. We appreciated the time and effort put forth to take care of our needs.

UofU Patient
June 04, 2014
this was my first positive experience in having my condition fully explained. orthopedic and neurosurgeons in Utah County were very poor in their assessments of my chronic pain. Nexus Pain Clinic in Provo have been helpful in pain management.

UofU Patient
May 25, 2014
both sessions with, first with Sara McAvoy and Dr Meic Schmidt were informative and productive.

UofU Patient
May 19, 2014
She was willing to work with our schedule to provide an adequate follow-up appointment.

UofU Patient
May 16, 2014
Sarah McEvoy is a cut above the rest. Definitely an asset to Neurosurgery and the UofU. Can we clone her?

UofU Patient
May 14, 2014
good

UofU Patient
May 14, 2014
Sara Mcevoy is the PA helping me with my treatment. She and her staff are remarkable. I have never been treated with such kindness and remarkable follow through. You can tell immediately she knows her business. She deserves a gold star for her intelligence, compassion and care. I was also very impressed with Dr. Schmidt. I feel very confident in his care. Thank you for helping me in a really tough situation.

UofU Patient
May 13, 2014
Impressed with the time she took to review my symptoms and MRI. I feel very confident in her care and explanations. A++

UofU Patient
May 06, 2014
Sara is one of the best health care providers I ever met. She has great knowledge, cares about her patients and expedited my care when I was in a great deal of care. Excellent!

UofU Patient

Very good experience

UofU Patient
April 29, 2014
Sara was wonderful in sharing her knowledge of my MRI images. Thank You Sara!

UofU Patient
April 25, 2014
Sara answered all of my questions and explained everything. I left clearly understanding what is causing my symptoms and how to treat it. She is very knowledgeable in her field and it shows in her confidence and ability to explain things clearly. I wish I had a general doctor like her.

UofU Patient
April 25, 2014
Very intelligent and easy to talk to.

UofU Patient
April 21, 2014
I highly recommend Sarah McEvoy. She gave me good advice on what to do for my back pain. I felt she cared about my concerns. She gave me a plan to look forward to.

UofU Patient

Superior

UofU Patient
April 10, 2014
My experience has been far beyond my expectations, from Sara, and Doctor Bissen.

UofU Patient
April 03, 2014
I have the upmost trust and confidence in both Sara McEvoy and Erica Bisson. I have never seen the team approach work so well. Sara McEvoy is detailed oriented, gives great explanations and follows through better than any other provider I have been to. Erica Bisson is caring, intelligent and I have 100% trust in her decisions and abilities. I could not have asked for a better experience.

UofU Patient
March 25, 2014
Sara McEvoy and Meic Schmidt were thorough with their evaluations and recommendations. This is the first time that I have seen the team concept work very well. My insurance does not cover the University of Utah but they came highly recommended and I want the best care possible. I feel that I have gotten the best care so far.

UofU Patient
March 20, 2014
good

UofU Patient
March 19, 2014
She is among the best I have ever been to.

UofU Patient
March 18, 2014
I have confidence Sara will be honest with me.

UofU Patient
March 17, 2014
I have a background in Radiology. Sara Mcevoy described my MRI accurately and fully. She is very relax and confident, which makes me feel confident in her. I would recommend Sara McEvoy to my friends and family

UofU Patient
March 17, 2014
PA Mcvoy was amazing!

UofU Patient
March 11, 2014
My orthopedic problem affects my whole life. I want an opinion about surgery from a surgeon. The PA, while not saying she was a surgeon, acted as if her education/experience was equal to that of a surgeon.

UofU Patient
March 01, 2014
Sarah McEvoy did an excellent job of interpreting and explaining MRI, but I felt like she paid more attention to the MRI than to the patient. It felt like she had already made a diagnosis before entering the room and did not pay enough attention to what I was saying. She did not feel that my c-spine was bad enough to warrant my symptoms and suggested an EMG, but when it was normal, she offered no further advice (via email) only that surgery would not help. Nor did she answer my question re: neck position correlating with symptoms in my feet. I was grateful to have the 2nd opinion that surgery is not warranted, but would have liked more attention to what could be done instead of surgery or some kind of next step.

UofU Patient
February 27, 2014
Wasn't alot of options provided concerning medications and my ability to still be coherent. No followup was prescribed.

UofU Patient
February 26, 2014
Dr. McEvoy actually listened to my husband's concerns instead of just judging him for being in pain. She showed us on the MRI how his nerves were being pinched. My husband has been dealing with arm pain for 3 years now and no one bothered to explain to us what was going on until we came here. I work in the medical field and have not seen a more professional, caring and thorough provider as Sara McEvoy. I have already told the doctors that I work with that she is great. I would highly recommend her.

UofU Patient
February 26, 2014
I like the team approach. Sara McEvoy is so very smart and knowledgeable. She knows MRIs, xrays and symptom patterns so well that she could explain it clearly to my wife and me, without any confusion. I am confident in the care and recommendations she has provided to me. Because of her, I feel prepared to move forward with surgery.

UofU Patient
February 21, 2014
I would send any of my friends or family there its a wonderful place

UofU Patient
February 19, 2014
Treated very kindly and not talked down to. I have been dealing with pain for a long time now and no one ever took the time to explain what was going on, except for Sarah Mcevoy. There may not be surgery in my future but I feel confident in the direction that Dr. Mcevoy has put me in. Thank you

UofU Patient
February 10, 2014
My experience with my care provider has always exceeded my expectations. I have full confidence in her and am very pleased with the way she conducts her appointments.

UofU Patient
February 04, 2014
I felt confident in the care and assessment that Sara provided. I trust and appreciate her expertise.

UofU Patient
January 22, 2014
very confident in this provider

UofU Patient
January 21, 2014
I used to see Sara at another clinic and seeing her at the U was also a good experience. She really cares about her patients and their concerns. She is knowledgeable and wants the best for her patients.

UofU Patient
January 21, 2014
the doctor was thorough from beginning to end. she put the plan in terms I could understand. I trust her very much

UofU Patient
January 16, 2014
Sarah Mcevoy is the finest medical care provider I have ever encountered. She is exceptionally smart, gives you excellent and useful information regarding your condition that you wouldn't even think to ask about, takes time to show you images and explain their significance. You will know you are getting the best care possible with Sarah Mcevoy.

UofU Patient
January 11, 2014
I expected to see my surgeon, but I guess that is the way the system works.

UofU Patient
January 10, 2014
I appreciated the good communication. Sarah is a very competent and knowledgeable provider.

UofU Patient
January 03, 2014
I was impressed by the concern that Dr. McEvoy had for my symptoms. She was thorough in her explanation of what was causing my symptoms. Most doctors do not show you the x rays but she showed us everything. I left leaving scared that I needed surgery but very confident in the care I received from Dr. McEvoy and Dr. Bisson.

UofU Patient
December 30, 2013
This was one of the best experiences I have had with a PA and Dr. Explanation of diagnosis and treatment was very understandable.

UofU Patient
December 26, 2013
Sara McAvoy was very good, took a lot of time to take me through the x-rays and MRI results especially to point out where potential problem areas were. Then, based on her analysis was good at recommending where to proceed from her exam.

UofU Patient
December 16, 2013
Both Dr. Meic Schmidt and Sara were very helpful and caring.

UofU Patient
December 16, 2013
Very impressed with the time she took to explain my injury and show the CT scan. She explained things in simple terms. Sarah Mcevoy is very knowledgeable and I trust her decisions fully.

UofU Patient
December 15, 2013
Excellent Experience

UofU Patient
December 10, 2013
I appreciated the explanation of the MRI and what was causing symptoms. I have never had a doctor explain things in such great detail. Sarah made sure we understood everything and put it is simple terms.

UofU Patient
December 04, 2013
Sara McEvoy is thorough. She informed me that surgery was not the only option. I was happy about this. I appreciate that she took the time to go over everything and gave me alternatives. The doctor's office that sent me to neurosurgery, said I would definitely need surgery. I was glad when Sara explained that surgery was an option but that we could do other things first. She seemed to care about my opinion.

UofU Patient
December 03, 2013
Very Good Information was given about the operation--what to expect and what not to expect. It was all very reassuring.

UofU Patient
November 25, 2013
Erica and her team are tremendous asett to the U of U !

UofU Patient
November 25, 2013
very pleased with attitude and communication with dr. That is hard to find anymore

UofU Patient
November 25, 2013
The doctor was smart, detailed and nice

UofU Patient
November 25, 2013
Great experience. Sara Mcevoy showed us all the xrays and cat scans, even the ones from another hospital. She went over these, surgery, and expected recovery in detail. We also had an order for a thyroid ultrasound from our family doctor. I was not sure how to get an appointment for this. Sara and her nurse, called and were able to get us in that day. This saved us a lot of time and it was helpful as my mother is still recovering from surgery.

UofU Patient
November 22, 2013
Eventhough I am in pain I had a very good experience. Sara McEvoy is great. She listened to my concerns and took them seriously. She called me after my injection, to see how I was doing and to give me options on what to do next.

UofU Patient
November 22, 2013
All staff and professionals were very informative, related to me on my level of understanding, and explained things carefully and made sure I understood what I was being told.

UofU Patient
November 18, 2013
Sara McEvoy has great communication skills, is very thorough and personable. This was, by far, the best doctor's visit I have been too. She took the time to review all of my scans and explain to me what she was seeing. She involved me in the decision making and made sure I understood the options. Dr. McEvoy even spoke to my Cardiologist before my appointment. I highly recommend her.

UofU Patient
November 04, 2013
What she didn't tell me was that she was leaving the clinic. I went back today with conjunctivitis, related to my viral infection and was told she was gone from the clinic. I saw someone else and it was fine.

UofU Patient
October 25, 2013
I was very very impressed with concern about me from Sarah, she wanted to know my concerns. Any other doctor I have been to could care less about extra stuff just want to ask the basic questions and move on to the next, Sarah really explained things to me and wanted to make sure I got everything I could out of the visit!

UofU Patient
September 20, 2013
My only concern is that side effects, beyond the gastrointestinal concerns we discussed, were not discussed about the medication I received. I've since had a reaction to it, and needed to call in and have the medication switched. It would have been nice to know about the skin concerns and possible breathing complications.

UofU Patient
September 04, 2013
Dr. McEvoy is a GREAT doctor. She actually cares and takes the time to explain what is going on. Hoping to have her as my primary care doctor and plan to return to her with any problems I have in the future.

UofU Patient
September 03, 2013
She took her time and worked hard to resolve my problem.

UofU Patient
August 28, 2013
After meeting with Dr. McEvoy just once I decided that I would like to make her my PCP. She is very knowledgeable, courteous and seems to genuinely care about my welfare. I will be recommending her to my friends and family.

UofU Patient
August 28, 2013
I definitely feel that I found a primary PA that I will be coming back for treatment, Mcevoy Sara.

UofU Patient
August 19, 2013
Sara McEvoy listened to me and had good advice.

UofU Patient
August 19, 2013
I felt like she cared and listened to my concerns. I left feeling knowledgable about my condition.

UofU Patient
August 19, 2013
Sara McEvoy was great!

UofU Patient
August 12, 2013
We discussed every possible scenario and outcome of my issue.

UofU Patient
August 12, 2013
Even though my injuries were not extensive, I think I would have liked to have something in writing (that I could take home) about the Dr. opinion and treatment.

UofU Patient
July 22, 2013
I highly recommend Sarah. She is an excellent educator and is 100% focused during your appointment on making sure you understand every important detail about your case. She explains things very clearly.

UofU Patient
July 21, 2013
After she said that she was going to toss me back into my PCPs court, I felt that there was no useful information that she was willing to give me. Her main interest seemed to revolve around the fact that she wanted to make sure that she didnâ¿¿t have to deal with me. And, as she was lopping me back to my PCP, I felt anything that needed to be discussed should be done with him.

UofU Patient
July 18, 2013
I was very pleased that a person who does sign language was there to aid my sister.

UofU Patient
July 07, 2013
This provider took time to answer all my questions & show me xrays regarding my questions. She is always very friendly and knowledgeable. I would HIGHLY recommend her!

UofU Patient
July 02, 2013
The provider seemed very genuinely concerned for my health concerns. Not just getting a paycheck.

UofU Patient
July 02, 2013
Very Good

UofU Patient
July 01, 2013
i could not have asked or gotten a better doctor and staff!!! my worry was lessend by them being so nice and outgoing :)

UofU Patient
June 23, 2013
I'm hoping the follow-up visit will increase my confidence with the PA.

UofU Patient
June 06, 2013
I felt completely educated about the reasons I was having symptoms. I was also relieved (VERY relieved) that surgery would not be necessary and there were other options.

UofU Patient
June 05, 2013
It is difficult to gain trust with one encounter but to the degree this is possible my trust was gained.

UofU Patient
May 27, 2013
Love everyone I have come in contact with!!

UofU Patient
May 08, 2013
I thought she did a great job, but was told the headaches had nothing to do with the reason I was seeing her, which contradicted why I was referred there.

UofU Patient
May 07, 2013
excellent

UofU Patient
April 22, 2013
Explanations were thorough. Excellent presentation.

UofU Patient
April 18, 2013
I did not feel that I recieved tne best of care or answers.

UofU Patient
April 14, 2013
pa was going to call dr. smith and tell him how to work with me, but as of thurs.. there was no call or letter.

UofU Patient
April 09, 2013
every minute I spent at this beautiful facility is more than satisfactory

UofU Patient
March 21, 2013
I felt as if time was taken to explain my situation so that I might make a better decission regarding my own treatment. Very valuable.

UofU Patient
March 18, 2013
Sarah explained my situation better than ANY health provider.

UofU Patient
March 17, 2013
Excellent care

UofU Patient
February 28, 2013
During all my visits with P.A. McEvoy she has given me the information and explanations for my condition that were clear and understandable.

UofU Patient
February 28, 2013
Excellent job, thank you so much for healingme from my accident

UofU Patient

Sarah McEvoy was excellent in her explanations, our involvement, answering questions, and helping us see alternatives. She is very professional and empathetic.

UofU Patient
February 04, 2013
Very helpful, knowledgeable, well appreciated

UofU Patient
January 29, 2013
doctor informed me I was not in pain and the pictures were all within the range of normal. the message was there was nothing she could do for me but pass me on to a someone else. Waste of time and hard earned money

UofU Patient
January 14, 2013
I feel really good about service. If we can find a good solution, I will have died and gone to heaven. Certainly not wishing that for reality.

UofU Patient
January 13, 2013
Dr. Goldston is probably one of the best I have seen. Very thorough.

UofU Patient
January 12, 2013
my issues were fully explained and treatment was outlined in terms easily understood by me.

UofU Patient
January 11, 2013
Follow up was discussed and no follow up available as discussed. Basically none of the issues we addressed were ever treated or cared for thus negating my reason for being seen. Nothing was done or resolved.

UofU Patient
December 17, 2012
I don't hear well and was told I would have a recorder for my visit. I didn't think about that until we were about done. I think communication was okay, tho.

UofU Patient
December 17, 2012
My experience with the Physicians Assistant was very good. My only concern is I am not familiar with the surgeon who would be performing the surgery.

UofU Patient
November 26, 2012
All excellent

UofU Patient
October 27, 2012
Can't say enough good things about Sarah.

UofU Patient
October 22, 2012
I work in health care in a non-medical field and work hard to remind providers to NOT use 'medi-speak' with patients--often to no avail. This was the BEST EXPERIENCE I have ever had with a medical provider NOT speaking jargon. I have raved about it repeatedly since that day.

UofU Patient
October 05, 2012
Sara has been extremely professional and courteous. My wife and I got her to smile with us on our first visit and found her to be charming and highly effecient. She is great in our book.

UofU Patient
September 26, 2012
Sara McEvoy is a true Professional....and her nurse Holley.

UofU Patient
September 11, 2012
Sara McEvoy always explains very clearly in easy to understand terms

UofU Patient
July 24, 2012
Upon leaving the hospital I was somewhat confused as to what I was to do when arriving home. I had terrible illusions, confusion, vomiting,diarreaha, mood swings, etc. I still have confusion and terrible mood swings entering my 7 wks. after surgery

UofU Patient
July 23, 2012
It is difficult to say much during the preliminary visits. My main concern is if there will be persistance in diagnosing what is wrong.

UofU Patient
July 09, 2012
Sara McAvoy and Holly are great.

UofU Patient
June 30, 2012
The care provided was far better than "5 - Very Good", it was excellent... The detail was precise, direct and to the point and very well understood... My recent appointment with Sara Mcevoy, PA was exceptional and would recommend her to one and all!!!!!!

UofU Patient
June 15, 2012
I felt very confident that I was receiving the best care possible

UofU Patient
June 15, 2012
The visit was fine

UofU Patient
