UofU Patient July 27, 2016
I have complete trust in my treatment by Dr Samuelson and Jennalyn. I have always felt they are looking out for me, and promptly respond to any concern I have. Thank you so much for your care. I truly appreciate you both.
UofU Patient July 26, 2016very good
UofU Patient June 21, 2016Dr Samuelson is my favorite doctor at the U. I feel very comfortable talking with him. like an old friend
UofU Patient June 14, 2016As expected the care received at UHC is the best in the Salt Lake Valley.
UofU Patient May 23, 2016wish I could have him as my primary care physician
UofU Patient April 19, 2016The entire team is wonderful!
UofU Patient April 03, 2016Most positive treatment.
UofU Patient March 27, 2016Dr. S. reviewed everything in my past, health history and asked about current concerns. He was meticulous. He also identified other areas he wanted to check, and scheduled the tests. His bedside manner is wonderful and engaging, and allowed me to lay aside the anxiety I have with Dr's. Dr. S. was also, very friendly and not hurried, at all. I was stunned about how much time he spent with me. His questions were direct, and his evaluations clear. I am guessing that Dr.S. has a long waiting list of patients, who are trying to access his professional help. If they are blessed enough to get him, they will be very happy and satisfied. He will do all he can to care for them. I am absolutely confident in recommending DR. S. to any potential patient.
UofU Patient March 08, 2016I appreciated that their was expressed concern over the medication ordered and the coverage from my health insurance..
UofU Patient February 09, 2016Dr Samuelson always does a great job!
UofU Patient January 29, 2016Care providers were excellent!
UofU Patient January 15, 2016Even though it was a very busy day at the clinic and I was a late add-on, the doctor still took a lot of time to carefully answer and discuss my questions and concerns.
UofU Patient January 13, 2016I have been coming in to see Dr. Samuelson for many years. I have complete confidence in the doctor and enjoy the time he spends with me. The Pharmacist, Dave, is very good and explains any questions I have about medications so that I can understand what they are and what they do.
UofU Patient December 17, 2015Dr. Sameulson and his team are excellent at what they do.
UofU Patient November 09, 2015I felt very grateful I was able to see Dr. Samuelson. I feel like I have seen one of the best!
UofU Patient November 04, 2015Thank you for all the brainstorming on how to handle the esophageal spasms:)
UofU Patient October 19, 2015Dr Samuelson is the best! He and Jena are wonderful I hope they are around for a very long time!
UofU Patient October 18, 2015I like having the two doctors, it helps with information about condition, and medicine. Dr. Samuelson was very helpful in explaining how to take my medicine. And also combining my pulmonology with the GI clinic.
UofU Patient October 13, 2015Always the best!
UofU Patient October 12, 2015Excellent experience with Dr. Samuelson, his team, and the Pulmonary Clinic as usual.
UofU Patient October 05, 2015Since you do not have an outstanding column I can only check very good responses. I am most appreciative for Dr. Samuelson accepting me as a patient and thorowly enjoyed meeting him and his NP. I came with forebodings as to my situation and left extremely impressed with him and pleased with his diagnosis, concern and care.
UofU Patient October 03, 2015Space here would not allow all my thoughts on Dr. Samuelson's and Jennalyn's professional efforts on my behalf, but thank you! It is greatly appreciated.
UofU Patient September 27, 2015I would not feel conforable in recommending anyone. It's just not my thing.
UofU Patient September 07, 2015I had to come in on a bit of an emergency basis on a really busy day and the doctor and NP were so kind and didn't rush through anything as we discussed my problem and decisions about my treatment. I was feeling really stressed and in pain, and their care was handled perfectly under the circumstances.
UofU Patient September 04, 2015Dr. Samuelson basically lets the patient decide how much time they need, by not finishing the appointment until pt. is satisfied and has all questions answered. By talking to me about other symptoms, he was able to see a need for me to follow up with my GI doctor. I love talking to him, and learn something new every time I come in, He is easy to talk with.
UofU Patient August 26, 2015Dr. Samuelson is the Best!
UofU Patient June 10, 2015I have been with Dr Samuelson for over 7 years and trust is medical judgements.
UofU Patient May 02, 2015Dr. Samuelson worked me in during a break in his meetings, I was the only one seen in Clinic that day.
UofU Patient April 30, 2015Dr Samuelson's care and skill have made a life-changing difference in my well-being. He absolutely turned a monthly bout with bronchitis into a rare event by his management of my care.
UofU Patient April 06, 2015Dr Samuelson was very friendly. he was so upbeat about my health, that when I tried to talk about things that really concerned me, he gave me a quick partial answer and moved on to something else. I kinda felt like I was a student and he was trying to get through a lecture and my questions were irrelevant. he is a very nice man.
UofU Patient March 23, 2015I would never place myself in the position to recommend any doctor or hospital.
UofU Patient March 16, 2015In any survey, the bottom line is would I recommend Dr. Samuelson and his clinic to others? A definite yes! He and his staff are the best!
UofU Patient March 15, 2015did not feel that any follow up instructions or changes were adequately explained or even put through. Saw more of teaching doctor and medical student than care provider.
UofU Patient March 10, 2015Kind and thoughtful
UofU Patient February 03, 2015Always a good, helpful experience. I like having several people give me advice...ma, pharmacist, np, Dr.
UofU Patient December 17, 2014Dr Samuelson is the best there is! I trust all of his experience, diagnosis and treatment options. I also really appreciate the time he spends with me, his compassion and knowledge.
UofU Patient November 17, 2014awesome doctor and enjoy seeing him.
UofU Patient October 08, 2014Dr Sameulson is the best doctor I have ever been too.

UofU Patient June 08, 2014The doctor spoke very quickly and had to be reminded to address the allergies I had mentioned a few minutes before.
UofU Patient June 03, 2014Outstanding staff !
UofU Patient May 29, 2014Dr sammie never leaves without making sure several times that I am comfortable with what took place during the visit!
UofU Patient April 29, 2014Dr. Samulsen took more time with me than any physician ever has. He was concerned about my symptoms and came up with a good plan to treat me.
UofU Patient April 28, 2014The NP spent a good amount of time with me and was very nice. The Doctor only spent 5-7 minutes with me. I do however understand that he is the best and in high demand. Just as a first time patient I wish he would have spoken with the NP so he knew what we had talked about.
UofU Patient April 27, 2014I love dr sami! Im sorry for him because my stupid body made him feel like he failed me and my family! He did not fail me!
UofU Patient February 02, 2014I have a already recommended this clinic to several people.
UofU Patient January 26, 2014Dr Wayne Samuelson is the epitome of what a good dr. should exemplify. His M.A. Carinn Archuleta is very compassionate and kind. David Young Pharmacist has been extremely helpful in teaching me about the use of my respiratory meds.
UofU Patient December 09, 2013Love Dr. Samuelson & Jennalyn.
UofU Patient October 14, 2013The visit was productive and informative.
UofU Patient October 07, 2013I really love Dr. Samuelson but I am also super pleased with the female (whose name I am embarrassed to have forgotten) who has been the PA (?) Intern (?) I've seen the last two times before seeing Dr. Samuelson. I hope she is training to stay on at the clinic with Dr. S.!
UofU Patient August 26, 2013I like how Dr. Samuelson connects with his patients and seems to genuinely care not only about their illness but how the rest of the patient is affected to. He evens listens to obscure and odd medical facts about asthma :-)
UofU Patient August 13, 2013Dr. Samuelson is an outstanding doctor. He is very skilled and communicated with be pleasantly and effectively. He explained things. He answered my questions thoroughly. I felt "valued" as a patient.
UofU Patient August 13, 2013Been going to this clinic for over 10 years, this is a great group of people.
UofU Patient June 18, 2013Dr. Samuelson is wonderful. I really depend on him.
UofU Patient May 29, 2013I have already, over the years, recommended this Doctor to several who needed that kind of help. I have never met any other doctor who is willing to spend the time necessary to explain and take care of the entire problem, rather than the quick fix and maybe it will work.
UofU Patient May 27, 2013Dr. Raman is an excellent doctor.
UofU Patient May 13, 2013Dr. Samuelson is easy to talk to and he cares about my problems. He changed a Rx, it has made a hugh difference already.
UofU Patient April 22, 2013I would highly recommend this clinic to anyone! The staff is awesome!
UofU Patient April 16, 2013Dave Young and Dr Samuelson work as a great team, and I felt my visit was productive and well worth it.
UofU Patient February 11, 2013Dr. Samuelson is great
UofU Patient January 28, 2013This is going to get boring because I cannot say enough good things about this clinic. I got phone calls at 6:30 on Friday nights, for heaven's sake! I have never had a provider go out of his/her way in this manner. Jennalyn called me back before i asked for her sometimes.She was at the top of her game. Dr. Samuleson got a prize when he nabbed her for the clinic. they are an awesome team!
UofU Patient November 13, 2012The entire staff are outstanding & I feel blessed to have them care for me.

UofU Patient February 22, 2012I love Dr. Samuelson. He always seems genuinely concerned even though he has a million things on his plate. Appointments move quickly without feeling like I'm being rushed out of the office.
