I am a little tentative giving all 5's on these categories because I do go home with so many questions about how extreme my situation is but I realize they are methodically diagnosing data and it takes the big picture

I seldom discuss the U of U Medical Center and its personnel with others. If I should discuss U of U Medical Center or its personnel with others who have particular needs, then I probably would recommend U of U if I thought U of U would be their best option. For me, it would only be a guess.

The cardiologist didn't communicate well with the staff about the end of the visit wrap up. I asked about the lab that needed to be done and the doctor just blew off the question and the MA that came in had to ask the doctor since the information was not communicated to her. This is the second visit that I have had with a cardiologist and the doctor didn't communicate the proper information to those helping in the visit.
