Petron is amazing. He is caring but quick and to the point. He made his assessment, recommendations and I was out of there in no time. I wish I would get into PT before 4-6 weeks which was his recommendation.

UofU Patient
July 26, 2017
if we have a choice we would always see Dr. Petron

UofU Patient
July 24, 2017
Dr. Petron has taken care of me for years. I can't thank him enough for keeping me out of the OR with my back and hip issues.

UofU Patient
July 17, 2017
Everything was kind and helpful, but felt slightly rushed. I'm sure that the doctor was busy and this did not negatively impact my view of my visit.

UofU Patient
July 15, 2017
I was amazed at the amount of time that Dr. Petron spent with me explaining my problem and ways to ease the pain. He even should me a medical book with a picture of the affected area and reasons for my problem.

UofU Patient
July 15, 2017
Both Dr. Petron and his ATC were excellent during visit and took the amount of time necessary to answer all questions and instruct my daughter properly on her exercises to help her knee pain

UofU Patient
July 14, 2017
Asked Dr. to assemble estimate/info for alternate treatment (Stem cell); has not been provided.

UofU Patient
July 14, 2017
while the appointment was short, i believe that needed to be said was covered well and I appreciate that I could get in so quickly.

UofU Patient
July 14, 2017
I've been lucky to have been seeing D. Petron since 94 I have a great deal of trust & faith in his abilities. He simply is the man

UofU Patient
July 12, 2017
Dr. Petron has taken care of me for decades. I definitely trust his judgment and his choices for my care. He discovered what is wrong with my hip and has a plan to take care of it.

UofU Patient
July 03, 2017
I am glad that Dr. Petron gave me the option of a medication to take orally as opposed to having an injection.

UofU Patient
July 02, 2017
Dr Petron was fabulous as always I was informed of what is best to do and the appointment went very well

UofU Patient

UofU Patient

Excellent Care!

UofU Patient
June 24, 2017
I wanted to know more about the injections available.

UofU Patient
June 23, 2017
Very professional and empathetic to my concerns. Took the time to talk with me about my health care concerns.

UofU Patient
June 18, 2017
very brief not too much explanation about suspected problem and very few options offered for treatment/recovery plans

UofU Patient

Exceptional care!

UofU Patient

UofU Patient

Excellent experience

UofU Patient
April 03, 2017
Dr Petron and Staff very professional and address ALL of my concerns

UofU Patient
April 03, 2017
I would have a liked a bit more explanation into the procedure I was getting, I had to google all the information regarding it and the recovery

UofU Patient
April 02, 2017
Efficient - exact and descriptive.

UofU Patient
March 31, 2017
I have full confidence in his ability to remedy my problem.

UofU Patient

Dr. Petron has always been very engaging and informative.

UofU Patient

thank you for evaluating my injury quickly and effectively.

UofU Patient

Dr. Petron is great!!!

UofU Patient
March 23, 2017
Okay, I took my mom with me because I have a bad memory and the Doctor spoke to her instead of me despite me also being an adult there and the one being examined. I would rather have been he one spoken to because it's my bad hip and my pain we came in for.

UofU Patient
March 21, 2017
worst experience I have ever had with any doctor

UofU Patient
March 20, 2017
I have been seeing Dr. Petron for a long time. He has always taken great care of me!!

UofU Patient
March 19, 2017
Although Dr. Petron prescribed PT, which I could have predicted he would (I hoped for something different, as I've already been down that route unproductively), he was attentive to my problem and clearly knowledgeable. I'll recommend him to others.

UofU Patient
March 15, 2017
Dr. Petron has been my go to Ortho guy for years! Always a pleasure to see him and his expertise is wonderful! Very caring

UofU Patient
March 13, 2017
Dr. Petron is the most professional and caring doctor I've ever had. He is warm, takes time to listen carefully to my health problems, and explains his diagnosis and treatment with empathy and respect. His bedside manner is a perfect example of how doctors should treat their patients.

UofU Patient
March 12, 2017
awesome doc

UofU Patient
March 05, 2017
Medical staff was very efficient and that gave me a lot of confidence in their findings and plan. It is good to trust you physician and staff.

UofU Patient
February 24, 2017
the doctor was not kind at all I have seen him 3 other times and just thought maybe he was having bad day. but he has horrible bed side manners. doesn't answer your questions when you ask him. treats you like a number and doesn't care about you or your problem. I would not recommend anyone to see this doctor it is a waste of money. I also had injections done both legs was numb his assistant walked me out into the waiting room and left me my son was there to drive me that day with my two year old she didn't even care to see if we needed help but he was chasing the two-year-old also to help me stand up getting to the car not very professional at all

UofU Patient
February 21, 2017
I liked the team approach - providers met with radiologist to clarify and then brought in ultrasound for confirmation

UofU Patient
February 20, 2017
good

UofU Patient
February 18, 2017
Totally satisfied. Dr. Petron gave my great service. He brought a physical therapist in the room with him and together we made a plan to solve my problem.

UofU Patient
February 17, 2017
Dr. Petron is the best doctor I've ever been to. He asks questions, listens, respects your answers and provides amazing care.

UofU Patient
February 16, 2017
Dr. Petron is great! Very friendly, helpful, knows his stuff!

UofU Patient
February 06, 2017
Dr. Petron is always so great! He has taken care of me intermittently for along time but he always recognizes me and knows about my treatments. He is very aware that I have a history of cancer and knows to look for signs that my cancer may be back.

UofU Patient
January 27, 2017
I was experiencing numbness & tingling in my leg, but also pain with some movements. I appreciated the discussion between the two care providers, the evaluation of movements, the x-ray review with me .... it all made me feel confident in their decision re: diagnosis and treatment.

UofU Patient
January 25, 2017
Dr. Petron took time with me. He showed me the same attention and care that I imagine he shows to his pro athletes. I really appreciated that.

UofU Patient
January 10, 2017
great

UofU Patient
December 23, 2016
I have know Dr. Petron for decades now, he is the only person that I trust to the highest degree. I love this man, he has kept me going and moving so that I can have a normal life with all the different surgeries that I have had. Dr. Petron is TOP NOTCH!

As always Dr Petron is caring and considerate .

UofU Patient
November 30, 2016
Everyone at the clinic was warm, friendly, and professional. I could not have had better care and concern about my problem.

UofU Patient
November 19, 2016
Dr. Petron is one of the finest medical professionals I have ever had the experience of interacting with to assess and resolve my medical concern.

UofU Patient
November 18, 2016
I should have asked more questions, but I would like to have had more information/guesses about what might have caused my problem and what I would be likely to expect in the near and distant future. But I recognize that time was short. AND I didn't ask questions.

UofU Patient
November 17, 2016
My husband and I have referred at least 3 of our friends to Dr. Petron and all of them were very satisfied with the care they received.

UofU Patient
November 08, 2016
Dr. Petron was amazing! Thorough and really friendly! I have every confidence that I will heal based on his advice/treatment.

UofU Patient
November 04, 2016
I didn't feel he gave me ideas to treat my problem other than an injection or sitting correctly. After researching my condition, many people live without every having surgery. I don't know how to do this and would like to know.

UofU Patient
November 04, 2016
I really appreciated the time that the Doctor spent with me to address all of my questions; concerns; proplems; and solutions.

UofU Patient
November 02, 2016

I was VERY impressed by Dr. Petron. He was timely, kind, and explained everything to me in great detail. He spent a considerate amount of time with me which made me feel very taken care of and important to Dr. Petron. He is extremely knowledgable in his field, and I was very impressed with his ability to answer all my questions. I will recommend Dr. Petron to friends and family, and will be visiting him again.

UofU Patient
October 24, 2016
Dr. Petron was able to set my mind at ease by confirming I did not have stress fracture.

UofU Patient
October 20, 2016
Great as always.

UofU Patient
October 17, 2016
All aspects of my office visit and procedure went very smoothly and efficiently and I was pleased with the experience

UofU Patient
October 10, 2016
I've seen this provider before and have generally had a good experience, but for this particular problem/visit, he kept interrupting me while I was trying to tell him things. It was pretty discouraging. Left the appointment feeling very down.

UofU Patient
October 03, 2016
Very satisfied with care provided.

UofU Patient
September 30, 2016
Dr Petron is truly a world class Doctor...So SOO happy I am able to be his patient..the U of U is incredibly fortunate to have his expertise

UofU Patient
September 29, 2016
Dr. Petron's reputation is very substantial and now I know why. He is a caring and highly competent professional, above and beyond any other doctor I have ever had experience with in my life. I am thankful he is my care provider and my trust in what he says and does around my health is absolutely unquestioned. Caring, professional, empathetic and totally competent in his field...what else could you ask for? Thank you, Dr. Petron.

UofU Patient
September 25, 2016

UofU Patient
September 16, 2016
Dr. petron was great at informing me of what had happened to my shoulder, and took the time to walk me through the ultrasound. he fave me detailed instructions of my options, and took the time to show me some exercises to help in my recovery

UofU Patient
September 13, 2016
we often recommend Dr. Petron. The Intern Dr. also did a fabulous job in the giving of the shot.

UofU Patient
August 30, 2016
I had been to 2 previous doctors for mystery foot pain who did not seem to understand how much pain I had, and had no strategy to reduce my pain so that I could live my life. While the source of my pain remains a mystery, I felt like Petron et al. understood that I was miserable and tried hard to help.

UofU Patient
August 29, 2016
I feel like I am in good hands with Dr Petron. He is concerned about your problem and ways to solve that problem. I appreciate that very much. My knee pain the last few days has been better.

UofU Patient
August 29, 2016
The APC working with Dr. Petron was terrific. Went out of his way to speak with the surgical team about me and get me in to see them minutes later.

UofU Patient
August 26, 2016
I would have liked more time with Dr. Petron to discuss other medications and future surgeries.

UofU Patient
August 25, 2016
Dr. Petron is a top notch doctor and person in every sense of the word. He is thoroughly professional, extremely knowledgeable and explains things well

UofU Patient
August 22, 2016
Dr Petron was teaching a young woman on our visit. She was assessing my daughter. I was very impressed with his questions to her to broaden her view point to figure out what was a possible alternative issue with my daughter's health. He appears to be a great teacher as well as great doctor. Dr Petorn also has a gift of humility concerning his patience. Wonder person!

UofU Patient
August 15, 2016
Doctor seemed in a hurry and annoyed. Did not spend a lot of time understanding my current problem and discomfort.

UofU Patient
August 14, 2016
I'm very happy with Dr. Petron's care and expertise.

UofU Patient
August 05, 2016
I expected more

UofU Patient
August 03, 2016
very satisfied with care provider

UofU Patient
August 01, 2016
I think the care provider was good. But it doesn't seem like I had an injury that required extreme knowledge or care, thus I'm not saying I wouldn't recommend my doc, but I didn't have a notable experience that I will be talking about for years to come. Also, I did not get any after appointment instructions or exercises that would be good or anything which I found odd, so I asked 2x but sure enough nothing to help me heal faster or get back to normal activities any faster. So I googled it and found some things "that will help."

UofU Patient
July 31, 2016
Really excellent

UofU Patient
July 26, 2016
I felt well taken care of during and after the exam. The doctor was great and I appreciated his explanations.

UofU Patient
July 25, 2016
very appreciative of Dr. Petrons time and information and recommendations

UofU Patient
July 23, 2016
Dr. Petron is experienced and confident in his care, which makes me feel confident in my treatment.

UofU Patient
July 17, 2016
Doctor was efficient but spent little time discussing treatment options if minimal care options did not work. Minimal examination. of physical area of concern.

UofU Patient
July 15, 2016
I did not feel I understood my future options for taking care of my problem. I was just referred to another Dr. I waited 4 weeks to see this Dr just to be referred to another Dr and am now waiting 6 weeks to see him.

UofU Patient
July 13, 2016
It was a pleasure meeting Dr Petron and I was pleased with my care.

UofU Patient

Dr Petron is THE BEST !!!!!

UofU Patient
July 02, 2016
he was in a hurry this time and I had to have nurse explain some of my concerns again

UofU Patient
June 30, 2016
Dr. Petron is very good, but he stated that there were no side effects for gaba penton, and I had a hard time getting up or moving the next morning. When I looked up the medication on the internet it said lack of balance, dizziness and drowsiness were usual symptoms.

UofU Patient
June 29, 2016
During the time Dr. Petron spent with me, he was very focused with me on the reason for my visit. I felt he was concerned about my issues and that he wanted to help me. He took the time to answer my questions and provided additional information and advice.

I was lucky or get in. it was extremely busy. I am looking forward to next appointment.

UofU Patient
May 24, 2016
Dr. Petron spent a great deal of time talking with me about my health care. He followed up with me two days later to discuss lab results and a long term plan. I could not have asked for better care!

UofU Patient
May 22, 2016
Dr Petron and the PA were fantastic. They explained my situation thoroughly and were willing to answer all questions. I left feeling validated and cared for. Excellent experience - will recommend Dr Petron to all my colleagues!!!

Dr. Petron and his staff are excellent. I have referred several co-workers and friends to Dr. Petron

UofU Patient
April 04, 2016
provider was the PA Bob. Doctor was friendly and helpful but PA spent more time.

UofU Patient
March 27, 2016
Doctor DavivPetron is not friendly at all, and is not clear in any recommendations for my healing process, the pt has even called to find out what limitations of weight are allowed on my broken knee and was not given clear instructions. The bedside manner and doctor patient relationship needs improvement. Thank you!

UofU Patient
March 26, 2016
Dr. Petron is great.

UofU Patient

Dr. Petron consistently delivers exceptional treatment and advice.

UofU Patient
March 20, 2016
I would've liked to ask more questions but I felt like the doctor was rushed and didn't have time to answer more questions.

UofU Patient
March 18, 2016
I saw Dr. Petron four years ago for a frozen shoulder, and when I developed a new problem, I wanted to see him again. He and his PA are both friendly and never seemed like they were in a rush to get out of the room. They took time to discuss my condition and answer questions.

UofU Patient
March 16, 2016
I felt like the doctor was rushed and in a hurry.

UofU Patient
March 07, 2016
Dr. Petron's PA was excellent in giving me information and options

UofU Patient
March 07, 2016
Dr. Petron was very nice and personable. I didn't like hearing what he said about my weight, but it is what it is. I Really liked him. If I continue to have orthopedic issues, I will request him.

UofU Patient
March 07, 2016
Wonderful experience!!

UofU Patient
March 04, 2016
Dr Petron is truly amazing!! He is an absolutely WONDERFUL professional!! So incredibly lucky to have him at the U!

UofU Patient
March 03, 2016
Felt very rushed, and that the doctor was quick to make an assessment without a good patient history exploration. I'm sure he has an assessment protocol and is confident in that, but the speed of it diminished my confidence in the assessment and next steps.

UofU Patient
March 03, 2016
I have recommended Dr. Petron and the Orthopedic Hospital physicians numerous times.

UofU Patient
March 01, 2016
I should not have tried to introduce a second problem into my visit, my mistake.

UofU Patient
February 24, 2016
I don't have much experience with or look at MRI's regularly. Petron expects that you come in with that as baseline knowledge

UofU Patient
February 19, 2016
Excellent care!!!

UofU Patient
February 15, 2016
Dr Petron spent the appropriate amount of time with me discussing recommended follow up for an injury outcome not up to my expectations. He took my concerns seriously and helped me lay out a plan that made sense and did not rush into other interventions.

UofU Patient
February 15, 2016
I could not have been happier or more impressed!

UofU Patient
February 13, 2016
Dr. Petron is the greatest!

UofU Patient

There was a miscommunication by the fellow and/or the pharmacy and I was given the wrong dose of a cortisone. I questioned it and they fixed it.

UofU Patient
January 28, 2016
Dr. Petron and Bob (PA) were both very knowledgeable and efficient. They went way out their way to care for me -- foloe-up appointments, an MRI and rehab plan were done within several days. I've received consistent outstanding care with the ortho group at the U many times. Thanks.

UofU Patient
January 21, 2016
Everyone was wonderful and experienced.

UofU Patient
January 18, 2016
Excellent

UofU Patient

UofU Patient
January 16, 2016
Dr. Perron understands my addiction to Dumbbells so he is always willing to discuss treatment options specific to me.

UofU Patient
January 14, 2016
Dr Petron is an excellent caring physician.

UofU Patient
January 11, 2016
As a type I diabetic I was a little concerned that there was no discussion about potential neuropathy in my foot, especially since I was reporting very low pain levels. This is no longer a concern, but it wasn't what I expected.

UofU Patient
January 08, 2016
Dr. Petron spent a considerable amount of time with me during my visit. He explained in detail his findings including the long and short term implications of my injury. My treatment options along with the pro's and con's of all the choices were covered. I had a lot of questions and Dr. Petron was very patient spending time fielding my concerns. What I appreciated the most was that he made me the primary decision maker in my treatment plan after I knew all of my options.

UofU Patient
January 07, 2016
Dr. Petron is the best! He asks how I am, gives advice, does my knee injections himself since I request this and is friendly and caring!

UofU Patient
January 06, 2016
Dr. Petronius took me with a moments notice to do an injection in my hip when Dr. Maak had asked him too. It was great!

UofU Patient
January 06, 2016
Dr. Petron is a wonderful, knowledgeable physician who I have recommended to at least 3 friends who also now have him as their doctor.

UofU Patient
December 06, 2015
Dr. Petron is thorough and caring in his work as a care provider. I don't trust my ortho needs to anyone but him. He spent time explaining the diagnosis and a treatment plan. Highly likely to recommend Dr. Petron to others.

UofU Patient
December 04, 2015
I appreciate Dr. Petron taking the time to answer questions that I may have in thorough manner.

UofU Patient

UofU Patient
November 07, 2015
My daughter came in to see Dr. Petron about her back pain. She is a dedicated Nordic skier with huge goals and expectations in her sport. Within a few minutes we were informed that she had a fracture in her vertebrae and then very little else. It was a huge blow to my daughter, and upsetting to me. We had to ask doctor about suggestions and recommendations on how to manage this problem. He seemed unconcerned that this news might have a huge effect on my daughter, and paid very little concern to her. Nordic skiing is her life, and after this appointment, she was very devastated. We just wish that we had a Dr. who would take her future care more to heart and be just a little more compassionate.

UofU Patient
November 04, 2015
Dr Petron was very good at making sure I had all the information i needed to make a good decision about a treatment plan. I felt listened to

UofU Patient
October 26, 2015
He is a fabulous Dr. that we recommend to others.

UofU Patient
October 22, 2015
Left the visit still unclear about what to expect for the future. Tried to make a follow-up question by e-mail/phone and no response.

UofU Patient

UofU Patient
October 10, 2015
Love Dr. Petron. He shows concern for my ongoing issue, remembers me each visit, has great treatment solutions and makes me laugh. I'm using secondary insurance rather than both primary and secondary so I can see him. My primary won't cover UofU but secondary will. It's worth it for me to have Dr. Petron continue to help me with a pesky back issue that seems to reoccur.

UofU Patient
October 04, 2015
Dr. Petron was outstanding. I mentioned some pain in a different area and he ordered an X-ray without a 2nd thought. Very easy going, knowledgeable, and incredible bedside manner. The best of the best!!

Dr. Petron is the best

UofU Patient
September 22, 2015
Love both Petron and Roth. I feel confident in their concern, attention and solution or treatment to my seemingly never ending issues.

UofU Patient
September 14, 2015
I have always felt like Dr. Petron gives me great care. He lets me participate in the decisions on my care.

UofU Patient
September 14, 2015
I set the appointment with Dr. Petron and was surprised when his PA initially came in to see me. Later, both the PA & Dr. Petron were in attendance. Perhaps offer a notice that someone else might be involved in care. If there was such notice, I must not have paid attention.

UofU Patient
September 12, 2015
Dr. Petron was great. He cared not only about my injury but about me as a person. Plus he included my father in the discussion instead of acting as if he was not there.

UofU Patient
September 03, 2015
I was treated by two different doctors. the first spent a great deal of time with me, the second had met with the first doctor prior to coming in to see me. my answers are based on the second doctor

UofU Patient
August 20, 2015
Lots of opportunities to improve the patient experience and the effectiveness of the visit... I will provide my specific comments when visiting the office next time, unless someone contacts me with questions related to my comments¿

UofU Patient
August 17, 2015
Dr. Petron was called out of the room for an emergency phone call, but I still had questions and concerns which never got answered.

UofU Patient
August 17, 2015
Dr. Petron was excellent

UofU Patient
August 16, 2015
Dr. Petron provided addition care if ran into problems going to Vietnam

UofU Patient
August 14, 2015
Good experience. Although a little confusing. Dr stated that (pt) would make things worse then prescribed it.I think the pt was a good call. The hip does feel better than before after the pt.

UofU Patient
August 14, 2015
Dr. Petron is the BEST !!!

UofU Patient
August 11, 2015
Dr Petron and his staff saved my career as a fire fighter. Without their treatment I would have had to retire. This is no way I can express my gratitude for what they have done for me and my family. A thank you is not enough.. The pain I was in is the worst I have ever experienced. While I will probably never fully recover from my injuries. I am at a point where I can fully function and do the job I love. Thank you for all you have done.

UofU Patient
August 08, 2015
Dr. Petron does and says what needs to be said but I have the feeling that he is not very interested in my problems. We were there to talk about options and when he said "I can't tell you what to do." it made me a little angry that we were wasting his time and ours. We were there for a recommendation and got a "who cares" response. It was more his lack of concern that bothered me most. Guess I'm too old for him to care about.

UofU Patient
July 27, 2015
Very good experience! I would highly recommend.

UofU Patient
July 27, 2015
When working in physical therapy, I was told I had a back issue and should let the doc know. When I did he was only interested in my shoulder. If I do have a back issue, I would like it check, but was unsure how to bring it up again.

UofU Patient
July 23, 2015
Dr. Petron exceeded my expectations. he was thorough, professional and friendly.

UofU Patient
July 21, 2015
Dr. Petron always has the answers to any issue I have seen him for. I have seen him for years with my back. I recommend him to anyone that needs a good diagnostician.

UofU Patient
July 17, 2015
I appreciated all the information the Dr. gave me about my condition. He really knew his stuff.

UofU Patient
July 12, 2015
The resident who saw me with Dr. Petron was very kind and caring and both were knowledgeable and interested in helping me. I appreciated the time they spent with me.

UofU Patient
July 09, 2015

great clinic

UofU Patient

Petron couldnâ¿¿t be nicer and more caring

UofU Patient
June 22, 2015
My experience was extremely positive. We are so appreciative of the efforts and hospitality and accommodation of each of the staff.

UofU Patient
June 17, 2015
The care provider was very knowledgeable; I did feel a little rushed, though, and might have liked to hear a bit more detail about the exercises I needed to do (just to make sure I'm doing everything right and won't re-injure anything).

UofU Patient
June 15, 2015
Dr. Petron is a complete Pro.

UofU Patient
May 29, 2015
outstanding.....very impressive

UofU Patient
May 13, 2015

UofU Patient

Love our visits to Dr Petron

UofU Patient
May 04, 2015
I was only scheduled for a knee injection, but Dr Petron took the time to answer my questions and address my concerns about progression of arthritis in my knee, and new symptoms I was having as a result of the progression.

UofU Patient
April 28, 2015
very good experience!!

UofU Patient
April 18, 2015
Dr Petron, his assistants, xray, everyone was absolutely fabulous. I have had nothing but a good experience at the orthopedic center over the years. Dr Petron listened with concern, was not in a rush, was genuinely attentive of what I was saying my problem was,

UofU Patient
April 16, 2015
He was helpful in showing me exercises to strengthen the area that is weak.

UofU Patient
April 13, 2015
I thought the PA did an excellent job explaining my condition and using the equipment in telling me what is going on with my ankle. He also did a good job of explaining how the braces and therapy would help me.

UofU Patient
April 12, 2015
Dr. Petron and his PA are both very nice.

UofU Patient
April 10, 2015
Dr. Petron is a fantastic doctor. Wish he did GP work too.

UofU Patient
April 01, 2015
Dr. Petron and his staff are the best. They can actually make a visit when I'm in pain enjoyable! I've recommended Dr. Petron to many others in the past and will continue to do so.

UofU Patient
March 25, 2015
I like Dr. Petron. He's a bright straight-shooter with a good sense of humor. I like how he lays out the treatment options.

March 25, 2015
Have already provided a recommendation for Dr. Petron

UofU Patient
March 20, 2015

UofU Patient

I would highly recommend Dr. Petron of any orthopedic work.

UofU Patient

the physical exam matched the MRI result. To me as a patient it builds my confidence when the plan of care is clear & I have options that match my lifestyle.

UofU Patient
February 09, 2015
good experience

UofU Patient
February 05, 2015
Dr. Petron is an exceptional doctor--he is so accurate with a diagnosis--informs you of everything very well. Wish more doctors were like him.

I asked a lot of questions and never felt anything but patience and willingness to help. Very impressed.

UofU Patient
February 02, 2015
Dr. Petron has taken care of assorted issues I have had over many years. I have total confidense in him and have recommended him to others that needed care.

UofU Patient
January 31, 2015
Dr. Petron and his staff are always so courteous and kind. They are informative and patient with dealing with your health issues

UofU Patient
January 25, 2015
anytime I have an Orthopaedic issue, Dr. Petron is the first Dr. that I want to see. The time he spends educating me about my medical problem goes a log ways in helping me see the path to healing and allows me to know what steps I need to take.

UofU Patient
January 24, 2015
Dr Petron is always the best!

Excellent experience

UofU Patient
January 12, 2015
I have referred several friends to Dr. Petron's clinic, all of us have had a similar experience - Dr. Petron is excellent.

UofU Patient
December 28, 2014
Dr Petron knew what my problem was and fixed it.

UofU Patient
December 22, 2014
Dr. Petron is always very informative and makes me feel at ease with my health problem.

UofU Patient

Dr. Petron is an excellent doctor, very thorough in his exams and explanations of what options are best. I have the utmost confidence in him.

UofU Patient
November 18, 2014
Really a very good visit. Dr. Petron was very positive and clearly pleased to see that progress had been made, while making clear his understanding that there is still more healing to be done and some concerns to be addressed.

UofU Patient
November 14, 2014
Based upon the experience I had at the University Orthopaedic Center, I would recommend them to anyone.

UofU Patient
November 12, 2014
Dr. Petron and his resident took a great deal of time to explain everything and answer all our questions. We are extremely grateful for their excellent care.

UofU Patient
November 10, 2014
I think Dr. Petron is the best. I have already referred him to others.

UofU Patient
November 05, 2014
I was taken aback by how unfriendly Bob Toth, the PA - who I've seen several times previously - was to me during my visit. I don't know what I could possibly have done to warrant such rude behavior. I was also fairly shocked when Dr. Petron addressed his comments to my husband rather than me. I was the patient, was in pain, am an adult, have many degrees including a Ph.D., and I found his talking about me to my husband (while I sat there) offensive. I will not return to either Dr. Petron or Bob Toth.

UofU Patient
October 30, 2014
He took the time to explain future options I will have to relieve pain in the future.

UofU Patient
October 24, 2014
I have infinite trust and faith in Dr. Petron, would advice anyone to go to him.

UofU Patient
October 23, 2014
I have seen Dr. Petron for my care for many years. It was great to know that he understood my concerns that this pain could be metastatic cancer. Her did not hesitate to order the MRI if the pain continued. It was wonderful to be told that I just have arthritis in my back and not cancer.

UofU Patient
October 09, 2014
Excellent physican

UofU Patient
October 06, 2014
Bob is very caring and knowledgeable Dr Petron is equally caring and personable.

UofU Patient
October 02, 2014
Fantastic care and responds well to questions and concerns.

UofU Patient
October 01, 2014
I normally do mot like giving all "5s" but you all have deserved them.

UofU Patient
September 29, 2014
I adore Dr. Petron. He always remembers me and my history, and is generally concerned and interested in my condition and health.

UofU Patient
September 29, 2014
It was all good.

UofU Patient
September 15, 2014
Took the time to explain and to suggest treatments to try. Really appreciated the advice given.

UofU Patient
September 11, 2014
Dr. Petron has taken great care of me for many years! He was very concerned about the new symptoms I have been having but he was also very reassuring.

UofU Patient
September 08, 2014
Was exceptional at listening and explaining some of the possible problems and the course of action that could be taken in order to treat.

UofU Patient
September 07, 2014
Dr. Petron is just the best. He is so caring and kind. I always look forward to seeing him. Did I mention how handsome he is?

UofU Patient
September 02, 2014
great care

UofU Patient
August 30, 2014
Dr. Petron needs to listen better, explain things better, and show more concern - especially for newly discovered problems. He seemed very distant and detached. I needed to pose questions and drag information out of him that he should have volunteered. I still ended up not understanding the nature of the injection he prescribed. He should also make better eye contact, rather than doing most of his speaking while looking at the xrays, chart or computer.

UofU Patient
August 28, 2014
really nice experience - fast too

UofU Patient
August 24, 2014
good experience and everyone was so kind and caring

UofU Patient
August 11, 2014
Excellent doctors. Kept me well informed.

UofU Patient
August 06, 2014
I had great concern about going to Dr. Petron and when I walked in and he was not in the room I wanted to bolt⿦. The procedure was very painful.. Dr. Petron was in the other room on the phone except for the end. My experience was nothing like what had been explained to me by my friend and parent who had similar procedures. I felt way to much of the procedure when others said they felt nothing after they were frozen. I would never want this again. My results have not been what I had hoped for either⿦.

UofU Patient
August 04, 2014
Dr. Petron is great. Ive sent a number of patients to see him

UofU Patient
July 30, 2014
One of my best visits yet!

UofU Patient

UofU Patient

Dr Petron is a rockstar! Very very grateful for his help and expertise.

UofU Patient
July 14, 2014
very impressed with the extent of time provider was willing to spend attempting to solve a complexing situation that was actually out of his realm

UofU Patient
July 12, 2014
Speaking as a physician, some of the hardest patients to please are other physicians. The whole team who treated me, including nurse, MA, resident, and attending physician were great, friendly, professional, and thorough.

UofU Patient
July 12, 2014
I was very happy to have Dr Petron as my doctor. He was very efficient and friendly.

UofU Patient
July 04, 2014
Dr Petron was excellent. I will request an appointment with him when need arises because of his knowledge and skill.

UofU Patient
July 02, 2014
Doctor took initiative and felt like my issues/family history were included. Also, MD called early next day with lab results and worked out a collaborative treatment plan and follow-up schedule

UofU Patient
July 02, 2014
Dr. Petron and his PA work very well together!!! I wish I could remember the PA's name. Excellent care

UofU Patient
June 29, 2014
Dr. Petron was very informative and showed great concern for me and my worries about my condition. He explained my issue very clearly and made every effort to ensure my comfort and increased my knowledge of my condition. I left with great confidence that I would return to my physical activities quickly as long as I followed his plan for me.

UofU Patient
June 27, 2014
respect for Dr. Petron

UofU Patient
June 26, 2014
I want to thank Dr. Petron for his expert and compassionate care. I was so fortunate to be able to get in to see him and be cared for so quickly!!!

UofU Patient
June 22, 2014
Dr. Petron and his PA Bob were very helpful, I felt they went above and beyond explaining to me what was going on.

UofU Patient
June 21, 2014
superb care and expertise

UofU Patient
June 19, 2014
Dr. saved my life.

UofU Patient
June 12, 2014
I will always come here for my medical needs

UofU Patient
June 09, 2014
all went well

UofU Patient
June 05, 2014
Dr. Petron even went over to Dr. Burks' clinic to see if he could see me right after my appt to avoid a return trip.

UofU Patient
May 22, 2014
Dr Petron was very thorough and pleasant.

UofU Patient
May 21, 2014
I was happy to hear that the pain in my knee was not something serious at this time and that through exercise I can slow down the Osteoarthritis progression in my knee.

UofU Patient
May 15, 2014
Dr Petron is always very professional and explains thing on my level.

UofU Patient
May 12, 2014
A very busy clinic. Once in the room Dr. Petron was knowledgeable, answered all my questions and gave specific treatment plans for me.

UofU Patient
May 11, 2014
I will for sure recommend Dr. Petron to my friends and family, same for Bob Toth PA.

UofU Patient
May 06, 2014
Dr. Petron is an awesome Doctor! He has helped me tremendously over the years. He has made it possible for me to keep working far longer than I would have otherwise. He is a top notch healthcare provider! I tell everyone I care about to get in with him, he will take care of their needs!

UofU Patient
May 06, 2014
My experience was very, very positive. I would definitely recommend Dr. Petron and his staff to everyone. I felt everyone was considerate and attentive to my issues. I really appreciated all their help, understanding, and care.

UofU Patient
May 06, 2014
Dr. Petron is excellent.

UofU Patient
May 03, 2014
Over the past 12 years I have seen Dr. Petron for a variety of sports related issues, the care has been excellent. I have referred several friends to Dr. Petron.

UofU Patient
April 29, 2014
Very Professional and listens to my concerns. Explains things on my level so I understand alot better.

UofU Patient
April 27, 2014
dr. petron is AMAZING!!! he really listened and made me feel like he was genuinely concerned about my condition! he epitomizes what all physicians should strive to be!

UofU Patient
April 26, 2014
i CAME TO SEE THE DOCTOR BY ADVICE FROM MY PREFERRED PROVIDER. DR PETRON WAS HONEST AND SAID HE WOULDN'T GIVE ME AN INJECTION DUE TO THE MY PAST HISTORY WITH INFECTIONS OVER THE PAST 3 YEARS. I APPRECIATED HIS HONESTY AND CONCERN FOR MY WELL BEING.

UofU Patient
April 26, 2014
This was an uncomplicated follow up visit.

UofU Patient
April 25, 2014
I am extremely sensitive about the pain medication that I take for my neck. I have decintigration in my facet joints and I have resotimies on the neck twice a year. One of the individuals reviewing my history made me feel sad about the fact that I am on the pain mediciation. I'm sorry but that it something that really disturbs me and makes me feel like less of a person. I'm certain that they were just doing their job.

UofU Patient
April 24, 2014
Dr. Petron called me the day after the appointment to explain my blood results. He spent time talking to me about my concerns and treatment. I really appreciate the amount of time he spent with me.

UofU Patient
April 20, 2014
I really do mean to select very good for everything. I was very impressed with this doctor visit. He was not condescending. He explained my condition well enough for me to understand it without needing to know the complicated medical terminology.

UofU Patient
April 18, 2014
Dr. Petron was most understanding of my issues and gave good advice on how to keep myself in as good as shape as possible. He also was gracious in offering to see a colleague with serious back problems.

UofU Patient
April 18, 2014
Dr. Petron is an excellent care provider. The PA working with him (Bob) is very good. I was very impressed by the orthopedic resident, Alex, that I met during a prior visit.

UofU Patient
April 17, 2014
Dr. Petron's empathy and humility are the characteristics all docs should have.

UofU Patient
April 14, 2014
He did not recognize the infection in my arm the first time I went to see him.

UofU Patient
April 14, 2014
Delay in obtaining appt was not good. Long clinic wait time was not so good either. I want to refer within system, but these were 2 negatives.

UofU Patient
April 13, 2014
Every thing he did was awesome. If I had to go back I would see this doctor again.

UofU Patient
April 06, 2014
Dr. Petron and his PA were fantastic. They showed a genuine concern, trying to come up with anything they could to help my progression after surgery. They were both very knowledgeable and communicated in a way that I could easily understand. I would recommend them to anyone asking about my visit.

UofU Patient
March 31, 2014
in a short time, Dr. Petron's expertise gives me lots of information about the long term plans for my chronic knee and hand problems.

UofU Patient
March 21, 2014
I ALWAYS recommend this clinic.

UofU Patient
March 20, 2014
Just don't think he was interested in my opinion or desired outcome.

UofU Patient
March 19, 2014
I felt rushed. I wanted to talk about options, what would happen if therapy doesn't work, etc.

UofU Patient
March 16, 2014
I brought up request to see hip specialist after this visit and he arranged it immediately. At first told me to see how things went over next 6-8 wks.

UofU Patient
March 12, 2014
I was extremely happy with my care providers. It was obvious they were concerned. I actually had three of them in the room at the same time. I love teaching hospitals!

UofU Patient
March 12, 2014
I adore Dr Petron and have great confidence in his treatment. he's a busy guy, and things sometimes feel rushed, but I do always get all of my questions answered. just not long chats (which is ok)

UofU Patient
March 05, 2014
I have always been treated as a valued and important patient in the clinic. Realistically I know I am not the only patient of the clinic. However, the attention patience and face to face time with my care provider, and nurse assistance make me feel as if they are there for me.

UofU Patient
March 03, 2014
Wish an MRI would have been done on the first visit as the xray missed the diagnosis and PT was done improperly since wrong diagnosis was made initially.

UofU Patient
February 23, 2014
Dr. Petron is an excellent physician. Don't take him away to an administrative position.

UofU Patient
February 16, 2014
Dr Petron has shown a lot of compassion toward me and cares about my pain and condition.

UofU Patient
February 13, 2014
Bob, PA is also excellent.

UofU Patient
February 08, 2014
The caregiver could not really tell me what he thought was wrong. I was referred to physical therapy and they were excellent diagnosing the problem and helping me.

UofU Patient
February 08, 2014
I have already recommended him.

UofU Patient
February 02, 2014
Both PA and provider were excellent...and provider's expertise/manner is why I returned to Petron!

UofU Patient
January 31, 2014
Very thorough explanation of my problem, very friendly and caring staff.

UofU Patient
January 31, 2014
I really liked that Dr. Petron called in Dr. Aoki to look at my knee and give me his advice and recommendations as well. It made me more confident in moving forward with the decision for surgery after hearing from several care providers who all agreed on treatment recommendations!

UofU Patient
January 30, 2014
amazing

UofU Patient
January 30, 2014
Dr Petron is the BEST !!!

UofU Patient
January 26, 2014
he understood my concerns. He understood my perspective in wanting to get back to my activities and running. He looked for a treatment approach that would work for me.

UofU Patient
January 26, 2014
I like Dr Petron very much. He got to the heart of the problem quickly and Mede me feel confident about recovery.

UofU Patient
January 20, 2014
The doctor came in with two other individuals. He talked to them about the process of getting my knee stable and feeling better but spent very little time going over the process with me, the patient. I felt like he was rushed or didn't want to bother with me, as if my injury wasn't too significant. I later saw a paper that was handed to me by the nurse? for physical therapy and I have no idea what to do with that or the process to get that started. My knee feels better due to a cortisone shot but I will probably cancel my follow-up with him.

UofU Patient
January 17, 2014
Dr. Petron and his staff are so kind and concerned. I would highly recommend him to everyone.

UofU Patient
January 16, 2014
I gave a couple fair rating decause I came in with multiple problems, and was well aware that the doctor would not be able to cover them all thoroughly. I will be back for follow up care.

UofU Patient
January 11, 2014
The doctor was great. Very warm and friendly, and knowledgeable.

UofU Patient
January 10, 2014
The MD spent very little time or expressed very little care about the lack of progress or my improvement. The fellows cared and seemed to care more. I am very disappointed by my progress. Dr Petron didn't tell me the side effects of the medicine he prescribed. I am very displeased with my results at this time.

UofU Patient
January 09, 2014
Dr. Petron is a fantastic physician. He provided outstanding patient care from start to finish.

UofU Patient
December 31, 2013
The education from the care provider was lacking. I left feeling a little lost, and I am a health care provider. I wish there had been a nurse to do some follow up teaching with me, or that Dr. Petron had taken the time.

UofU Patient
December 07, 2013
I would definitely recommend the physician and orthopedic center to others.

UofU Patient
December 03, 2013
Dr. Petrone has always taken the time to detemine my progress and answer questions, both from me and my husband.

UofU Patient
December 03, 2013
I felt like I was not listened to, and that my issues were not important. Despite 10 weeks of pain, I was told "well, your MRA is not normal, but just stay off it for 2-3 months and see if it gets better" After further testing and evaluation by a second physician, it turns out my problem is significant and requires surgery to prevent further degeneration.

UofU Patient
December 02, 2013
Petron cared about my experience and understood that I wanted to get back to an active life as soon as possible and clearly did all he could to help me reach that point.

UofU Patient
November 25, 2013
Dr. Petron went above and beyond what most doctors would do to listen and understand my situation and made a great recommendation for further care.

UofU Patient
November 25, 2013
always nice

UofU Patient
November 25, 2013
Great

UofU Patient
November 18, 2013
My knee feels great.

UofU Patient
November 01, 2013
I prefer to go to him as he does not automatically recommend surgery.

Previous visits convinced me Dr. Petron is an excellent doctor. However, this time I was sent away with no recommendations for my problem. We never really discussed if it would heal itself or I would just have to learn to tolerate the pain and discomfort I'm now feeling.

UofU Patient
October 24, 2013
Knowledgeable, attentive and pleasant.

UofU Patient
October 23, 2013
I came in thinking I either had bone cancer or was a hypochondriac. Dr. Petron was very nice about telling me I am not a hypochondriac, because I did have a broken bone, but also that it was very unlikely to be cancer because it was healing nicely.

UofU Patient
October 21, 2013
Dr. Petron was great! He asked all the questions and did the range of motion, strength and movement testing (along with x-rays) that addressed the questions/issues I had. I felt completely well cared for, heard and able to voice the questions I had without censorship or dismissal.

UofU Patient
October 15, 2013
excellent care provider

UofU Patient
October 08, 2013
Dr. Petron and his PA were very friendly, informed, and attentive to my problem. They were thorough and discussed treatment with me and I was confident in the plan.

UofU Patient
September 30, 2013
We LOVE Dr. Petron and his staff. Despite his busy and demanding schedule and his high caliber of usual patients we were treated with equal importance and concern and care. He allowed my daughter to continue with her two loves (cheer and golf) and put our worries to rest. Reassured us that if anything changes he is available and explained the next step in the process. He didn't just jump ahead into expensive and maybe unnecessary testing, i.e. mri, scan.

UofU Patient
September 27, 2013
I was very pleased with the level of concern, treatment and care I received.

UofU Patient
September 26, 2013
I highly recommend Dr. Petron

UofU Patient
September 25, 2013
the times I have been there, I have seen a assistant to take first notes, then a resident, and then the resident with Dr. Petro. When Dr. Petro and resident are in the room, a female (nurse, LPN, assistant?) is in the room taking notes on computer.

UofU Patient
September 24, 2013
I had a lot of unexpected pain following the procedure. Had I anticipated it, I could have asked for information about how to treat it. There was some written information but I think a follow up call from the provider would be really great.

UofU Patient
September 22, 2013
Very unsatisfied with the treatment I received following the cortozone injection. The manipulation that was carried out put me in immense pain and completely nullified any good effects I had following the injection, with Dr. Petron even stating that he thought the second part of his manipulation of my shoulder went too far. I am very concerned that this manipulation was carried out without any anaesthetic as the pain I suffered was immense.

UofU Patient
September 04, 2013
I have never had a bad experience at the clinic. Been seen several times, have had xray's, MRI's, and even surgery there.

UofU Patient
September 04, 2013
Petron is very good technically and is a nice man.

UofU Patient
August 28, 2013
Seriously outstanding exam, care, team approach and explanations

UofU Patient
August 27, 2013
There were three people who saw me, so it is hard to rank all three in one survey. The first person who came in--a technician?--seemed to want to be some where else. The PA was slightly more interested.

UofU Patient
August 26, 2013
Dr. Petron is one of the best in providing patient care. He is very caring and considerate , not to mention knowing his field. I recommend him to everyone who has joint issues. You are lucky to have such a great physician.

UofU Patient
August 26, 2013
I had 3 doctors in the room and felt very well taken care of and that they were all very interested in my issue. Loved them all :)

UofU Patient
August 24, 2013
Great!

UofU Patient
August 23, 2013
My only issue with my visit was no one explained the possibility of pain after the treatment, but I didn't ask either I was just so happy that it wasn't hurting any more at the time and really it only hurt that evening and Ibuprofen took care of the pain. Very happy with the results the next day pain was gone

UofU Patient
August 15, 2013
Dr.Petron is the BEST !!! He has been my Doctor for over 20 years and i have never had a more caring and careful Doctor! I recommend him to all my friends when asked.

UofU Patient
August 13, 2013
Dr. Petron is what I wish all Doctors were like, expert in his field and extremely friendly and down to earth. He is such a class act and answers any questions I have.

UofU Patient
August 12, 2013
Petron is a great Dr. in my opinion. He has helped me more than any other Physician with my particular ailments. He is AWESOME!!!!!!!

UofU Patient
August 12, 2013
I was nervous coming in because I hurt so bad and thought that the only way to fix the problem would be to "slice" & "dice" my shoulder, but both Toth and Petron were quite cool and calm, happy and kind when telling me that surgery was not the means to fixing my shoulder and that cortisol would be the first attempt in avoiding "the knife". No surgery!

UofU Patient
August 09, 2013
Dr. Petron is wonderful and so are all of his staff.

UofU Patient
August 09, 2013
As I mentioned before both Dr. Petron and his PA's and staff were wonderful

UofU Patient
August 07, 2013
Dr. Petron is the best, he is professional, very knowledgeable and knows his patients very well. I am very pleased to have him as my sports med doc.

UofU Patient
August 06, 2013
excellant

UofU Patient
August 06, 2013
i was thoroughly informed and treat with the utmost care.

UofU Patient
August 05, 2013
Dr. Petron was thorough in his explanation and answered all my questions well. He was friendly in demeanor.

UofU Patient
August 05, 2013
Excellent, thorough and provides great information physician.

UofU Patient
July 24, 2013
the provider spent less than 2 minutes in the exam room did not examine me or give me any instructions about further care. Just that "hope this last a while for you" and left the room. Over my three appointments none of the providers moved or felt my knee except for locating the injections site.

UofU Patient
July 15, 2013
I saw dr. petron before and like how he handle issues

UofU Patient
July 15, 2013
if I could give Dr. Petron 10's instead of 5's I would.

UofU Patient
July 08, 2013
Dr. Petron, my savior for twenty years!

UofU Patient
July 01, 2013
Dr. Petron is very caring and interested in me and my welfare.

UofU Patient
July 01, 2013
Wish that the doctor had told me the severity of my problem. Hard to know how long my problem will last.

UofU Patient
July 01, 2013
All around very good experience

UofU Patient
June 21, 2013
I have seen Dr Petron for multiple injuries in the past, and he has always been a top-level provider for my healthcare needs.

UofU Patient
June 04, 2013
Very impressed with Dr Petron. He seemed so sharp and genuinely concerned about my problem. He seems like he will not stop till he figures it out. That is what I've been looking for.

UofU Patient
May 29, 2013
You feel like a number with Dr. Petron. He seems rushed and is very brief. He seem arrogant

UofU Patient
May 27, 2013
Dr Petron showed concern about my shoulder and he wants to help me. He has always treated me well and his staff has always treated me well.

UofU Patient
May 24, 2013
Dr.Petron is one of, if not the best Doctor I have ever had treating me !!

UofU Patient
May 21, 2013
Dr Petron is top notch! He is by far, the best Dr. I have ever been to. Unfortunatly for me, there have been a lot of them! He has helped me more than the others combined.

UofU Patient
May 20, 2013
Bob and Dr. Petron are a great team. They both were interested in my concerns and answered my questions with clarity.

UofU Patient
May 20, 2013
Dr would ask a question and then cut you off half way through the answer as if he did not really care for the answer. He did this several time. He seemed more interested in showing the residents how smart he was. I never got a chance to even tell all the problems related to my problem but maybe he can read minds!

UofU Patient
May 20, 2013
I got good and friendly and efficient treatment throughout, in the front office, the examining room and the x-ray facility. Bravo!

UofU Patient
May 18, 2013
Dr. Petron is an exception physician - knowledgeable, savvy, personable and attentive to the presenting problem and questions I provided. He was effective in his use of our time yet did not make me feel rushed - answer all my questions and left me feeling that we had a treatment plan and confident in different approaches if Tx choices were not effective.

UofU Patient
May 17, 2013
He walks in with a whole entrauge rarely speaks to me and tells me I need an injection. I wait, he comes back. He barely talked to me. It was if i was a burden to him and his time. He was just "trying" the injection first then would try something next. I don't want to be an expirement, I want quality care for my problem.

UofU Patient
May 15, 2013
I LOVE Dr. Petron!! He seems genuinely concerned, does not waste time, and lets me look at the ultrasound of my shoulder whenever I am in the clinic. He helped me very much during a recent panic attack I had while in the exam room. He inspires confidence.

UofU Patient
May 13, 2013
Very good experience

UofU Patient
May 09, 2013
Dr. Petron was very through as was his fellow resident.

UofU Patient
May 03, 2013
There were no bad experiences so far.

UofU Patient
April 26, 2013
The youngest medical professional ("Dr. Toby"?) had incredible people skills. The resident (a woman, sorry don't remember the name) was continuously curious, which helped her figure out the problem. Dr. Petron figured out what to do about it. All-in-all, a great team effort.

UofU Patient
April 22, 2013
The talk was pleasant and informative.

UofU Patient
April 19, 2013
I spent more time with the fellow than the Doctor. They were both friendly, but I would prefer to spend more time with the actual provider I am scheduled to see.

UofU Patient
April 17, 2013
Dr. Petron is amazing. I really appreciate all he does for me and my knees.

UofU Patient
April 06, 2013
Great

UofU Patient
April 01, 2013
Dr. Petron has been my orthopedist for the past 6 years. He has always provided practical advice on my osteoarthritis. I have a trusting relationship with him as a medical services provider.

UofU Patient
April 01, 2013
Dr. Petron is a prince. Can't say enough about him and the care he gives.

UofU Patient
March 25, 2013
Dr. Petron got me right in for MRI after I saw him. Dr. Petron is very friendly but quick. He gets what he needs to get done in a very short time.

UofU Patient
March 15, 2013
Both the visiting resident and Dr Petron were caring, concerned, and took the time needed to address my concerns & make sure I understood the plan of care.

UofU Patient
March 12, 2013
Dr Petron is very kind and caring, I have great trust in him

UofU Patient
March 11, 2013
I felt like a was a study specimen as he was explaining my conditions to the residents more than to me

UofU Patient
March 05, 2013
Great experience!

UofU Patient
March 05, 2013
Maybe a tiny bit rushed--this is a very busy practice and I could see the faculty and satff hustling to take good care of so many patients.

UofU Patient
March 02, 2013
I have recommended the procedure and Dr to 2 other people. I hope their insurance will allow them to have the help they need.

UofU Patient
February 26, 2013
It meant a lot that the PA would go through the trouble of providing me with a copy of my x-rays.

UofU Patient
February 18, 2013
I have utmost faith and trust in Dr. Petron and recommend him to all my friends and family.

UofU Patient
February 11, 2013
Very efficient getting me to the correct specialist.

UofU Patient
February 11, 2013
Dr.Petron spent a great deal of time with me and did not appear rushed.

UofU Patient
February 04, 2013
I am just complicated and they were great with me!!

UofU Patient
January 28, 2013
Again I love Dr. Petron but felt very rushed. I was told that I was going to need surgery and they scheduled me for an MRI. However, they were unable to inform me if I was going to need to drink contrast stating that it was up to the radiology technician. Dr. Petron talked with his PA more than he talked with me. I was told nothing about the surgery and sent on my way with some pain medication and an MRI appointment. I am expecting more information after the MRI.

UofU Patient
January 23, 2013
I have already recommended the Ortho Center and will continue to do so. Dr. Petron, Bob and the staff are just awesome!

UofU Patient
January 22, 2013
I was there for an injection. Dr. Petron did an excellent job.

UofU Patient
January 22, 2013
He was great.

UofU Patient
January 18, 2013
I will recommend Dr. Petron...

UofU Patient
January 14, 2013
Came into exam room without previewing record. I know everything is computerized but think the electronic record should be reviewed before he comes into the room.

UofU Patient
January 07, 2013
Thanks, Dr. Petron, for always showing concern and for taking good care of me!

UofU Patient
January 04, 2013
Dr. Petron has always taken every step to ensure that I was as comfortable as could be, and did everything possible to get me back to normal.( or as close to it as I come! ) I have faith in him and tell anyone I know that he is the greatest Dr. I have ever had. And I have seen a few!

UofU Patient
January 02, 2013
Both Dr. Petron and Bob Toth were great. Bob spent the most time with me and was very good. Dr. Petron was also very good. I felt comfortable discussing my condition with them and they were very good at conveying to me what was going on in a manner that I understood.

UofU Patient
December 26, 2012
did not discuss bone spur, which is secondary pblm. will ask at my follow-up visit.

UofU Patient
December 24, 2012
Dr. Petron and his PA provide excellent care

UofU Patient
December 14, 2012
I have recommended Dr. Petron to many of my friends and acquaintances. My son is also Dr. Petron's patient.

UofU Patient
December 07, 2012
Dr. Petron was great in helping me understand what was wrong. He helped me get the necessary treatment as quick as possible.

UofU Patient
December 07, 2012
Joy English was my first contact with an MD, she took her time and explained things to my understanding. However, Dr. Petron was a blast in and out with an ok that sounds good, let's do that. Rather short and sweet.

UofU Patient
December 03, 2012
Dr Patron and Dr Plet are the best.

UofU Patient
November 28, 2012
This was my first visit with Dr. Petron. I wasn't sure what to expect, considering his name on the pictures of all the famous people in the waiting room. He was very friendly and I felt confident in him as health care provider.

UofU Patient
November 22, 2012
Once in the exam room, my experience was very good.

UofU Patient
November 19, 2012
I have already recommended Dr. Petron to a friend.

UofU Patient
November 19, 2012
good

UofU Patient
November 16, 2012
Both Dr. Petron and his PA were very professional, patient and easy to talk to. They both listened to and "heard" my questions and concerns. An excellent experience.

UofU Patient
November 13, 2012
Dr Petron and his staff are always EXCELLENT in taking care of my needs

UofU Patient
November 12, 2012
The doctor was awesome.

UofU Patient
November 06, 2012
Excellent experience

UofU Patient
October 31, 2012
Dr. Petron came in the room after reviewing my chart so he knew the specifics of the case. He is personable and friendly

UofU Patient
October 30, 2012
He was knowledgeable and communicated well.

UofU Patient
October 30, 2012
t i was very grateful that dr. petron was there.

UofU Patient
October 30, 2012
Dr. Petron is the best. He has a great bed-side mannor and is always friendly and fun.

UofU Patient
October 22, 2012
Although the doctor was busy he took the time to discuss a related problem with me--he asked questions, examined my joints, and generally helped alleviate an orthopedic problem i was having

UofU Patient
October 16, 2012
Dr. Petron is an excellent provider. He knows what he's doing and he explains everything very well.

UofU Patient
October 16, 2012
The injections have decreased my pain level. I am happy with your team and the results.

UofU Patient
October 09, 2012
Excellent

UofU Patient
October 09, 2012
I have recommended Dr. Petron to others including my husband and other family members

UofU Patient
October 08, 2012
Dr. Petron is an excellent provider and I have always been very happy with the care that he has provided for me through the years.

UofU Patient
October 08, 2012
The time I spent with Dr. Petron on the telephone was more than adequate.

UofU Patient
October 02, 2012
The provider spoke directly to the PA when viewing my MRI and did not explain to me what I was seeing. Perhaps I wasn't aggressive enough (I'm not shy), but I think that explaining the film directly to the patient is important - shouldn't have to ask.

UofU Patient
October 01, 2012
Time was short with the doctor

UofU Patient
September 24, 2012
I have seen Dr. Petron before, and trust his judgement.

UofU Patient
September 24, 2012
Really like Dr. Petron. Very kind and concerned. If I have to have the surgery, I would want him to do it.

UofU Patient
September 24, 2012
great experience, diagnosis i agree, but swelling persist and feel pt should maybe be put on hold. i am planning another visit very soon. my first thought was how professional everyone was, i felt comfortable with everyone involved.

UofU Patient
August 31, 2012
A great experience overall for a procedure I'd been nervous about and heard horror stories about from other people.

UofU Patient
August 28, 2012
I liked Dr Petron. He was very approachable and helpful.

UofU Patient
August 27, 2012
Dr. Petron has been patching me up for many years now, and has done a fantastic job of keeping me going. I recommend him highly to anyone I meet who has ortho problems.

UofU Patient
August 22, 2012
Dr. Petron was extremely nice and very professional about my injury and what I needed to accomplish in order to heal quickly

UofU Patient
August 13, 2012
I have never been treated better by any clinic anywhere. Kudos

UofU Patient
August 09, 2012
I've always felt that his was sound, the best.

UofU Patient
August 08, 2012
Dr. Petron is very good but also very pressed for time. He does a good job explaining issues in that limited time but he could improve on checking for understanding.

UofU Patient
August 06, 2012
MD very friendly, and able to convey concern & not appear hurried, eventhough he obviously had a very busy clinic.

UofU Patient
August 06, 2012
Very efficient and professional in all areas!

UofU Patient
August 03, 2012
despite my appointment being pushed back an hour, the service was excellent from both the primary, 1st yr residents and PAs. I was actually impressed by the service provided.

UofU Patient
August 03, 2012
Dr Petron and his PA, Bob were excellent and I have already referred.

UofU Patient
July 30, 2012
Again, I felt I was not well informed about the results of the MRI I had earlier in the day, and in fact was never even told if I needed to make a follow up appointment. Although everyone I worked with was awesome, it seemed like a very rushed procedure.

UofU Patient
July 30, 2012
I felt like it was professionally done.

UofU Patient
July 30, 2012
If he spent this little time with everyone and I was a new patient, I don't understand how he could be so far behind.

UofU Patient
July 30, 2012
Felt rushed, had questions I didn't get a chance to ask. There were to many patients and not enough time.

UofU Patient
June 29, 2012
Dr Peteron and his staff were great. I appreciated the time Dr Petron spent helping me understand the issues and how to treat my health problem.

UofU Patient
June 28, 2012
I would recomned him to any one

UofU Patient
June 18, 2012
My recommendations will be on skill and knowledge that I felt my health care provider had. That's what makes me come back and recommend.

UofU Patient
June 18, 2012
I left without a clear understanding of my diagnosis. I can't tell you what specific tendon is having what specific problem, or what specific muscle isn't tracking properly in my shoulder.

UofU Patient
June 18, 2012
Dr. Petron is one of the best

UofU Patient
June 18, 2012
Felt like Dr. Petron took time to answer my questions and took the time to go beyond the scope of why i was there to explin what was going on with me and how he felt that it would resolve a lot of my issues when i have surgery.

UofU Patient
June 18, 2012
Very good

UofU Patient
June 13, 2012
Dr. Petron is the man the myth and legend!!!

UofU Patient
May 16, 2012
I was still a little unsure about the plan for my recovery, timing on recovery and what would need to be done, however I think this may have to do with the fact that my ankle was so swollen, maybe the doctors don't know a plan or timing yet.

UofU Patient
May 04, 2012
I had difficulty with the injections (vaso-vagal response) and they took quick care of me and tended to my needs. Very helpful.

UofU Patient
May 04, 2012
The doctor was unclear about the treatments he wanted me to do. However he was very friendly and caring.

UofU Patient
May 01, 2012
They came in, see me, ask for the condition, when out, came back, drain fluid, when out, and never came back. Here then came the nurse at 5:00 PM on Friday, told me I can leave. I was laying on the bed with my shoe and sock of and still waiting for further instruction. Then I was asked to leave. With the condition of my knee on that day, I couldn't even wear the sock by myself. I was asked to leave in pain, without proper help and further instructions. I was frustrated about the medical service that I received.

UofU Patient
May 01, 2012
This was one of the better /best experiences I've had in regards to feeling heard and being walked through what was going to happen. I was nervous about not being taken seriously because my injury doesn't cause me constant pain. Its induced from certain activities. I feel Dr Petron understood my want to be as active as I used to be.

UofU Patient
May 01, 2012
Very favorable impressions

UofU Patient
May 01, 2012
Dr. Petron did an effective job and was quite personable and responsive.

UofU Patient
April 24, 2012
Dr. Petron is fantastic. I couldn't ask for anything better from him as a doctor or his staff. A++++ all the way.

UofU Patient
April 20, 2012
Dr. Petron is fantastic! Very easy to talk to, answered all my questions, explained treatment options. I would recommend these providers to anyone.

UofU Patient
April 19, 2012
I think DR Petron is one of the very best, always professional, timely and efficient.

UofU Patient
April 19, 2012
the Doctor seemed to be too busy or behind to even take a look at my file before he came in the room, he thought I had arthritis, I have TOTAL loss of all cartlidge between both knees, not even close

UofU Patient
March 31, 2012
I asked about one of the six injections. When I asked about whether there was a problem, I did not get what I believe was an adequate explanation. This one was out of alignment with the others and still do not know why.

UofU Patient
March 30, 2012
Dr. Petron always goes the extra mile in providing care and information. At this visit he really assisted me with a minor secondary item--the removal of a troublesome corn/callus on my foot that I didn't expect but really appreciated that he did. I have recommended Dr. Petron to many people on numerous occasions. really appreciated.

UofU Patient
March 27, 2012
I was impressed with everyone who took care of me. It was nice that we were able to talk on a level that was comfortable for all of us. I appreciate the time that was taken and I felt that I was able to voice all of my concerns. The doctors answered my concerns, provided the information that I needed. They were both very friendly. I would highly recommend them to anyone who needs their services.

UofU Patient
March 27, 2012
I am unhappy that I waited 60 minutes to see this doctor and he spent less than 5 minutes with me in the examining room. Furthermore, he wasn't going to give me a prescription for physical therapy - I had to ask for it and then he said "oh, that might be a good idea". Very disappointed. I will go out of my way to recommend that friends and acquaintances do NOT go to him.

UofU Patient
March 27, 2012
Petron is Excellent and he knows his stuff but is often times very busy.

UofU Patient
March 23, 2012
Dr Petron was appropriate in medical evaluation. I appreciated that they took the time to investigate and listened to my LONG answers and they stated they actually benefited from additional information that I shared even though it was from an injury 10 months prior. Thank-you.

UofU Patient
March 16, 2012
my visit was very positive

UofU Patient
March 02, 2012
The Dr. went right to the problem and solution. I received an injection the very 1st visit which helped my shoulder almost immediately. Excellent care.

UofU Patient
February 23, 2012
The fellow performed the procedure with Dr. Petron supervising. The fellow did a great job!

UofU Patient
February 23, 2012
Dr. Petron and team have been outstanding to work with and I would gladly recommend them to anyone needing lower back care (as it relates only to my injury).

UofU Patient
February 16, 2012
Dr. Petron is always good with me!

UofU Patient
February 14, 2012
Dr. Petron and staff are outstanding in terms of bedside manner and explaining options for care.

UofU Patient
February 10, 2012
Dr petron in very good but always in a hurry

UofU Patient
February 07, 2012
Petron is the best!!!

UofU Patient
February 02, 2012
I didn't think about it at the time but 2 days later I realized I needed pain medications so I could sleep. I wish I was offered that when I was in the office the first time.

UofU Patient
January 27, 2012
The PA was very nice and explained things very clearly. The Doctor appeared very confident and experienced. I still need to find out the issue, which is the only negative thing about my visit. I'm scheduled for an MRI and follow-up visit later this month. Unfortunately, I'm going to have to contact the MRI lab to find out if I need to prepare for the lab procedure in any way before showing up (fasting, what to wear, or not to wear, etc.) because no one at the office told me anything about it.

UofU Patient
January 26, 2012
Yes, I will tell others.

UofU Patient
January 19, 2012
Dr Petron and his staff were attentive and responsive to my needs. Fantastic job.

UofU Patient
January 10, 2012
Dr. Petron is excellent. Goes right to the issue, treated it right away, made suggestions about the short and long term prospects of knee injury treatment, etc.

UofU Patient
January 07, 2012
Dr. Petron is caring, kind and expert care provider. He is amazing, that is all I can say.
