UofU Patient May 14, 2016
After providing my list of symptoms, Dr. Speed didn't take the time to dig deeper, to find out more of what's going on. He focused on what seemed important to him when all of my symptoms were worthy of attention. I left the office feeling like I had almost completely wasted my time, and all of the time spent waiting for the appointment to finally roll around.
UofU Patient February 18, 2016When asked if Doctor thought I was 100% back to my old self Doctor said I had aways to go still, when I asked what he could see that I could not he didn't or couldn't answer!! All I want is an honest answer to what he is seeing that I am not. I believe that any one can forget short term things what makes me so different!
UofU Patient January 11, 2016I always have a great experience in this clinic.
UofU Patient December 11, 2015good
UofU Patient September 04, 2015good, She has just met me and trying to sort out what has been done. We will see in the coming weeks
UofU Patient July 26, 2015The Doctor was very good at listening and helping me with my care.
UofU Patient July 23, 2015I had worked in the medical field for over 40 years. Dr. Speed is the best physician I have ever known; he excels in every category. I feel so fortunate to have had him caring for my husband and interacting with both of us. I could spend paragraphs raving about him--he epitomizes CAREgiver.
UofU Patient June 18, 2015I look forward to Dr. Speed talking to me and he has so much school under his belt, you can tell.
UofU Patient April 15, 2015There needs to be an "outstanding" category for Dr. Speed.
UofU Patient March 19, 2015I appreciate and respect the knowledge and council provided by Dr. Speed.
UofU Patient March 05, 2015We have been connected to the University of Utah hospital and staff for about a year now. We have always found that the people that work there are very dedicated to their professions. We have had a very good experience, and found all the nurses, doctors and aids in any way always very helpful, and have appreciated how well we were cared for both as a patient and as a wife of the patient. Thank you to everyone. We have a renewed respect for all of you.
UofU Patient March 02, 2015good
UofU Patient February 09, 2015Dr Speed said that I really didn't need to see him, but be referred to PT, which he did. I was referred by Dr Shprecher to Dr Speed. it would be very useful if a short consult between the two had been done, not just a blind referral. It wasted a "new patient" appointment for Dr Speed as well as my time and money. It also delayed my proceeding to the PT appointment.
UofU Patient January 12, 2015Dr. Speed is very caring, knowledgeable, and it was all in all a great experience.
UofU Patient December 18, 2014Good
UofU Patient December 12, 2014Dr. Speed took extra time to encourage my son to do more physical things. "Use it or loose it"
UofU Patient December 07, 2014Dr. Speed is AMAZING! He is the kindest, most attentive doctor I have ever met. He takes time to explain in detail, he writes all of his own notes about you. I've never had to complete any paperwork before seeing him. he takes the time to capture all of your information himself. I pray my insurance approves me for his program. He is the only doctor in the past year since my accident that has given me hope. I have hope that under his care I can be a whole, normal self and have the life I had before my auto accident.
UofU Patient December 04, 2014Visit was for followup of TBI I suffered in March, 2007. Dr. Speed has always made me feel he was concerned about my well being. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone.
UofU Patient November 26, 2014Good experience
UofU Patient October 18, 2014They don't come better than Dr. Speed. He is courteous, compassionate, empathetic, knowledgeable, and personable. He explains clearly and thoroughly any concerns of the patient. He is just plain kind. And one of a kind. We have never met a more likeable and trustworthy physician.
UofU Patient October 07, 2014Working with Dr. Speed has been a great experience. He has helped me with my post surgery pain & was great at explaining what was causing the spasms I was experiencing.
UofU Patient August 24, 2014Dr Speed was genuinely interested in my pain I was going through when he came in the room & how long I've been going through. He didn't seem rushed even though I am sure he was & really took the time to help me feel like I had a light at the end of the tunnel of the pain I've been experiencing post surgery. I was very impressed with him on my first appointment with him & so was my sister in law who drove me.
UofU Patient August 04, 2014Dr. Speed's manner and concern should be baseline for all doctors. He is wonderful to speak with and asks a lot of questions to ensure my wife get's the best care, and even helps me with advice on caregiving.
UofU Patient July 23, 2014Dr. Speed is the greatest. He has the best bedside manner of any physician we have ever known. He responds to all of our concerns honestly and courteously. He is caring, knowledgeable, and kind. He makes a "doctor visit" an actual pleasure.
UofU Patient May 16, 2014Dr. Speed is the greatest!
UofU Patient May 10, 2014Really like Dr. Speed.
UofU Patient April 07, 2014I consider myself extremely fortunate to have a highly skilled and personable physician such as Dr Speed.
UofU Patient March 15, 2014I am 75 years old and caring for my disabled husband. Between the two of us, we have seen many doctors in our lifetime. There is simply not a more kind, caring, and professional physician than Dr. Speed. Having worked in the medical field all of my life and having seen a number of caregivers personally, I can say that with confidence. I know how busy a physician's schedule can be, but Dr. Speed never makes one feel rushed. He addressed all of our questions and concerns with patience and compassion. He treats patients and caregivers with respect and never condescends or dismisses their concerns. I am generally a terse person, but I am so grateful to Dr. Speed for his care, I thought I would become a bit more verbose.
UofU Patient February 28, 2014good experience
UofU Patient February 01, 2014good
UofU Patient January 26, 2014I always have a great experience here.
UofU Patient September 09, 2013I appreciate the concern he had for my future, especially making sure my PC believed me and my symptoms.
UofU Patient September 03, 2013very good and extremely professional.
