Dr. Stanford is thorough and was willing to answer my questions. I felt like he knew what he was doing and was knowledgeable. I could tell he had a plan but I felt like I had to ask more questions than I expected to ensure it was fully communicated. Him: Take X medication every Y days. Me: what should I expect after completing that regimen? when do I need to call you if things don't happen the way you expect?

He seemed very knowledgeable and asked lots of questions. He was very respectful during the exam and talked me through everything before he did it or asked before he touched me. It made me feel very comfortable and made the experience far less uneasy than past experiences.

I was pleasantly surprised with how much time Dr. Stanford spent with me discussing my concerns, looking over my charts, and explaining any potential issues that I may have. He was patient in answering my questions and used terms I understood.
UofU Patient
September 21, 2017
I didn't feel like he cared about my situation as more than a mild disturbance to his research into my overall problems. I was trying to hold back tears and he didn't seem to notice. For months all I wanted was for him to show emotional awareness and when I needed it most he failed.
UofU Patient

Excellent physician showed great concern, experience, and bedside manner.
UofU Patient

I wish he would have been sure about my diagnosis and told me rather than assuming we all knew since he just kept saying it.
UofU Patient

He was so knowledgeable and helpful. explained things clearly and made me feel very comfortable.
UofU Patient
June 05, 2017
He seems knowledgeable which is great. But sometimes it seemed like he struggled to express his thoughts. I'd rather just spit it out, even if he's going to go a different route. I appreciated all the time he spent with us, but felt at times like we were just waiting for him to sort through his own thoughts. Not a lot of clarity. Felt like at times he wasn't sure what he wanted.

I have made several attempts to get the physician on the follow to follow about about blood work I had done and each time I get that he's left the clinic early... by 8 am on a work day.

He was very thorough in his evaluation of me, he was even highly interested in knowing about other conditions that I have so that he could ensure that he was giving me the best treatment and care possible.

I'm so grateful for Dr. Stanford's depth of knowledge in regards to fertility issues. He was finally able to confirm a hormonal problem that I have strongly felt was wrong for a over a year but could not find a healthcare professional who would listen and/or who had proper experience and knowledge to diagnose it.

we've been so impressed by Dr. Stanford! Even before we met him and visited with him we heard so many great things about him, from the staff on the phone to his patients in the lobby! So many people fat and rave about him. He took time to personally email me about my questions and concerns before even having an appointment with him. We are so grateful to be working with Dr. Stanford!

Care provider could have used the technical terms and defined them for me if needed. I'm pretty well-versed in the more technical terms, and he seemed to avoid using them in favor of talking around them in simpler terms, which made it more difficult to understand what he really meant.

Research Statement
I seek to understand and improve the impact of reproductive health on child health and development. Since 1991, I have conducted research in natural family planning, natural procreative technology, reproductive epidemiology, and life course epidemiology, including serving as principal investigator or co-investigator for five preconception cohort studies. I am currently principal investigator for the Utah Children's Project, a cohort to investigate child health outcomes in relation to early life exposures (back to conception) and genetics; and one of the principal investigators for the participation of UCP in the NIH Environmental influences and Child Health Outcomes (ECHO) consortium. I am also working on international practice-based research for restorative reproductive medicine- a primary approach to infertility that empowers couples, has cumulative live birth rates comparable to other treatments, and has much lower rates of perinatal and neonatal morbidity and lower cost.
