Malea was awesome. She is always very thoughtful and patient to listen to me about my concerns; I never feel rushed or belittled about what I'm worried about.

UofU Patient
July 10, 2017
I am very pleased with my new provider.

UofU Patient
July 07, 2017
She seemed to understand quickly what the issue was and I was able to have the testing needed right away in the office.

UofU Patient
June 29, 2017
she didn't seem highly experienced

UofU Patient
June 23, 2017
I was very pleased with the providers and the sharing of information. They were both very helpful and respectful. Excellent.

UofU Patient
June 07, 2017
good

UofU Patient
June 05, 2017
I felt a bit rushed along, and as though some of my concern was being a tiny bit dismissed. But also I'm just uncomfortable with new people, and Malea wasn't my usual doctor, so I give her a lot of credit for being so nice and trying to help me.

UofU Patient
May 26, 2017
Malea is simply the best! She needs a raise!

UofU Patient
May 18, 2017
Malea Satterwhite is an awesome provider. I have a very high degree of confidence in her skills as a provider, and she is very easy to talk to.

UofU Patient

already transferred my Mom to my doctor. she is a benefit to the profession

UofU Patient
April 25, 2017
Very professional, positive and friendly.

UofU Patient

Good experience over all.

UofU Patient
April 09, 2017
She is an excellent Dr,

UofU Patient
April 08, 2017
Malea is amazing! I will definitely be visiting her again because she really cared about me

UofU Patient
March 17, 2017
It felt a bit rushed. I somewhat felt like I was being talked down to about medication compliance. I understand why I need to be compliant, that was not my issue (I'm just forgetful and have a plan now). She couldn't have known I've done sex education work, but it was still somewhat bothersome that I felt like I was high school again when she reiterated safe sex practices. I think it's good to check in patients to see where they're at regarding education about certain health issues.

UofU Patient
March 16, 2017
Malea did a fantastic job reassuring me for a procedure I was a bit anxious about. She made the whole thing quite quick and painless.

UofU Patient
February 20, 2017
Malea is fantastic letting me know the course of care we are doing. She spends a quality amount of time with the patient giving me the utmost confidence in my cae

UofU Patient
February 12, 2017
an all around great experience. I appreciated the amount of time she spent listening to my concern, reviewing options with me and explaining medication options.

UofU Patient
February 03, 2017
Love Malea!!!! She is always so helpful with all my concerns. Malea always is concerned for the patient and what is best for the patient. The one thing I really appreciate is the time she has spent with me to help me resolve a lot of questions and concerns I have had with my help.

UofU Patient
January 23, 2017
The care provider was concise and professional.

UofU Patient
December 27, 2016
like stated before i am so glad to work for the U and be able to receive U care!

UofU Patient
December 23, 2016
I know Malea Satterwaite has many, many patients and that I come only 1-2x each year for an annual exam or other preventative care. I have only been seeing her since 2013, and I don't expect her to remember me in detail, but it is challenging to feel like a stranger to your primary care provider every time you see them. I had some very specific issues two years ago that she sent me on to referrals which eventually were treated with surgery. At my most recent visit, I saw her a few days after the surgical procedure and she asked why I had the surgery. Again, I know it is unrealistic for her to remember everyone, but a quick chart review of general facts before our interactions could breed greater trust (granted if she even has time in her caseload for that). I fully acknowledge how busy she is, and I do appreciate the time she spends with me on my occasional visits. I appreciate her care and competence as a medical provider, and I will continue to rely upon her skills as my PCP.

UofU Patient
December 16, 2016
Malea was very kind and empathetic

UofU Patient
November 18, 2016
she was so awesome! she gave me an excellent explanation of what it was, what to expect and how it was effecting me. she had great bedside manner and was thorough in her examination

UofU Patient
November 13, 2016
M. Satterwhile is excellent.

UofU Patient
November 03, 2016
I had such a great experience, my wife is going to make an appointment for herself at the clinic.

UofU Patient
September 23, 2016
I have a hard time trusting medical professionals after a recent malpractice issue, but I am incredibly happy with Dr. Satterwhite and I feel like she understands how I like to be treated when it comes to taking medications and in general. She has really great bedside manner, which is what a lot of doctors lack nowadays, and she explains things to me in a way that I understand. Her new assistant/trainee is also really wonderful.

UofU Patient
September 18, 2016
male a and her intern spent a great deal of time trying y o determine the cause of my issues. I felt very comfortable with decisions that were made.

UofU Patient
September 12, 2016
I cannot say enough good things about Malea.

UofU Patient
September 12, 2016
Malea is wonderful! She educates the patient but allows you to make your own decisions regarding your choices and options.

UofU Patient
September 10, 2016
malia is very nice and we discussed why wellness visits are impossible to get due to changes in billing courtesy of health care reform. I enjoyed my visit with her

UofU Patient
September 07, 2016
she was knowledgeable and listened too many concerns and heeled me choose the best method for preventative care

UofU Patient
August 30, 2016
very pleasant, wonderful care

UofU Patient
July 01, 2016
Dr. Satterwhite is great. She did keep asking me question about what I had done (which tests, etc.) at my last physical a year ago, which was frustrating because a) I didn't remember b) didn't she have all that information in my records which were right in front of her???

UofU Patient
June 20, 2016
everyone should strive to be like melea satterwhite. super efficient, non-judgemental, and really personable

UofU Patient
June 11, 2016
she gave me her prognosis, but only gave one option, exercises for treatment and no information or options about what to do if I did not improve.

UofU Patient
June 10, 2016
The "exam" consisted of the PA listening to my lungs. She then prescribed a medication I didn't want and the visit was over. As this was my annual physical I had several things I wanted to discuss, she didn't give me a chance to go over any of them (literally, not one...). I didn't even realize the visit was over, I honestly thought she was going to give me the chance to discuss my concerns and next thing I knew I was being walked out to the reception area. I was shocked. She didn't even ask about prescription refills for the meds I do need! The entire visit was a complete waste of time, and NOTHING was resolved.

UofU Patient
May 27, 2016
Malea is very friendly and knowledgeable. I was impressed with her ability to listen to the concerns, she provided effective treatment. She is a wonderful PA-C, I have recommended her and Sugar house Clinic to all my friends and family!

UofU Patient
May 24, 2016
Absolutely loved my experience. I have a really hard time with needles, and other things, and I felt so comfortable, and not pressured to do anything. It was great!

UofU Patient
May 16, 2016
The PA (Malea??) really picked up the slack for the MD who bailed on me. Thank goodness she puts in such long hours, and is so conscientious.

UofU Patient
May 07, 2016
Malea is awesome. She is very knowledgeable about medicine yet remains extremely down to earth and relatable. She is always very prompt with any questions that I have after the visit, which is typically very few given how well she answers everything while I'm there. I would (and have!) recommended her to friends and family.

UofU Patient
May 04, 2016
She was amazing. She cared so much and found the reason for problems that other doctors have overlooked. I was very impressed.

UofU Patient
April 18, 2016
she listens to you and answers Any questions. she doesn't Run you in and out. very caring

UofU Patient
April 15, 2016
She has been very helpful and tried help with wehat I needed

UofU Patient
April 05, 2016
I'm very pleased with Dr. Satterwhite and her knowledge for being able to help me. She is also very clear in the way she transfers information and speaks to me.

UofU Patient
April 05, 2016
It looks like I just went down and checked the same boxes but Malea is that good

UofU Patient
April 05, 2016
Malea was excellent, I appreciated the amount of time she spent with me answering additional questions

UofU Patient
April 04, 2016
nothing got accomplished. I'm still suffering.

UofU Patient
March 28, 2016
Was very impressed at how personal the experience was, and that she shook my hand. Very personal.

UofU Patient
March 20, 2016
Very comfortable with this caregiver

UofU Patient
March 19, 2016
I tell everyone how great the care is and the trust in the Providers.

UofU Patient
March 13, 2016
Malea is always helpful, she goes over what we have accomplished from the last visit and what I still need to work on. She cheers me on. She also gives me the instruction that I need to be successful at improving my health

UofU Patient
February 21, 2016
Malea literally saved my life and continues to treat any concerns with the utmost respect. I have absolute confidence in her.

UofU Patient
February 07, 2016
Malea is wonderful. She is kind and shows genuine concern for her patients, also has a positive attitude about and towards her patients.

UofU Patient
January 25, 2016
My mother works for CDC and was appalled at the lecture I received from the PA. She was unfriendly and offered me a mediocre solutions to subside my virus.

UofU Patient
January 22, 2016
Malea is easy to talk to. She shows a genuine interest in my health and in helping me achieve my goals.

UofU Patient
January 18, 2016
Malea is an excellent provider and I feel very listened to when I go to see her

UofU Patient
December 12, 2015
Absolutely fantastic! I was nervous about this appointment and she made me feel completely at ease.

UofU Patient
December 03, 2015
The doctor that saw me was wonderful, I was slightly out of it due to my being sick, but she had patience while I tried to explain what was going on.

UofU Patient
December 01, 2015
Lack of knowledge from dr

UofU Patient
November 30, 2015
I can honestly say "Malea has been exellent in all of my appointments,in guidence with my health problems & answering any questions" . (I have several "cronic conditions" so again ~ I am very Thankful for Malea & Her staff...Exellent Job ~

UofU Patient
November 13, 2015
I've already recommended her to a friend.

UofU Patient
November 10, 2015
The PA that helped me was extremely helpful and concerned for my condition. She took the time to ask me a lot of questions and let me talk about my frustrations with it. She was excellent at making me feel comfortable and well taken care of. Best of the best! So glad I went to this clinic to get the help I needed

UofU Patient
November 08, 2015
I had a lot of anxiety surrounding the lump under my arm, and I felt that was brushed off after I expressed that. It made me feel like what I was feeling was invalidated.

UofU Patient
October 31, 2015
All three people were excellent

UofU Patient
October 29, 2015
I think I found my new primary care

UofU Patient
October 24, 2015
Phenomenally good experience!

UofU Patient
September 29, 2015
She didn't seem very concerned at all yet it's been a week and I still can't use my pinky finger and have pain in my ring finger and knuckles. Yet my boyfriend goes in for a similar injury for the knuckle on his hand and it's a completely different attitude. Oh poor him, mind you he can use his hand!

UofU Patient
September 25, 2015
Made sure I was informed and understood what to do with medications.

UofU Patient
September 04, 2015
I honestly have nothing to say negitive ~ Every appointment has been "Very Good" ...

UofU Patient
August 31, 2015
I can't say enough about Malea Satterwhite!! She is a PA-C not an MD but I'll take that any day after the way I was treated by the MD at Greenwood clinic. Malea is always so kind, patient and very respectful. I would highly recommend her!!

UofU Patient
August 07, 2015
I saw Dr. Satterwhite twice in one month. Each visit she was extremely helpful and addressed all of my concerns. Each nurse who checked me in was very sweet. I never have had a bad experience at Sugarhouse. I called Dr. Satterwhite on a Friday afternoon and she was unavailable at the time. She returned my call later that evening with my primary care doctor, Dr. Leiser with her. They both were extremely helpful and answered my questions. All of the staff at the Sugarhouse clinic are wonderful!

UofU Patient
July 30, 2015
I was pleased that the PA did not immediately move to the use of medication to solve the lower back pain, but instead showed me very useful stretches and exercises to solve the problem.

UofU Patient
June 20, 2015
Malea is the best doctor!

UofU Patient
June 15, 2015
Malea Satterwhite is both friendly and competent. I am very glad I've found her.

UofU Patient
May 26, 2015
Terrific experience Excellent Doctor!

UofU Patient
May 19, 2015
Great job!

UofU Patient
May 15, 2015
excellent provider. I'll gladly return

UofU Patient
May 03, 2015
Malea is great with me, I will not switch to anyone else.

UofU Patient
May 03, 2015
Malea is excellent.

UofU Patient
March 27, 2015
I've already expressed how I dislike my doctor already and how I will never be back to your clinic or recommend your clinic to anyone I work with

UofU Patient
March 14, 2015
This is the second time I've brought my daughter to see Malea and both times I've been extremely happy with her care. She takes time in the room to ask thorough questions and is compassionate. She's great at explaining everything so you feel equipped to handle whatever is going on. She even took the time to hold my 14 month old daughters hand and walk her down the hallway as we were leaving.

UofU Patient
March 09, 2015
Everyone I have seen at Sugarhouse has been great.

UofU Patient
March 09, 2015
An excellent experience

UofU Patient
March 08, 2015
I felt as though the doctor was rushing but other than that I felt the doctor was efficient.

UofU Patient
March 07, 2015
already recommend y'all

UofU Patient
February 25, 2015
A very positive experience.

UofU Patient
February 17, 2015
This doctor was ill mannered, rude, judgmental and uncaring. Her treatment to my surprise was even worse than the previous two appointments. Which is why I hesitated to sign the pain agreement with her. She spent what time we did spend together, smirking and suggesting innuendo. Which I pointed out to her after five minutes. Instead of hearing about my progress, and or concerns, needs, developments, questions regarding over the counter supplements, and new skin developments, she continued with her impolite behavior. This visit was a complete waste of time, energy and money. She refilled my prescription, and we closed parting ways. She shows no maturity, compassion, or understanding, but was eager to judge and find a problem. Nor was she consistent in her instructions or leeway. She was incredibly offensive and I believe suffering with an inflated ego, which is truly a disservice to her patients.

UofU Patient
February 15, 2015
Malea took care, during my visit with her, to completely understand my concerns, and to go over my options, including the ones that I brought to our meeting. I left with a prescription, with a blood work up to check my overall status, and a game plan, if the prescription doesn't work the way we want it to work. I leave my visits with Malea feeling empowered, and it is greatly appreciated.

UofU Patient
February 09, 2015
Awesome Provider, I recommend her to my family and friends.

UofU Patient
February 05, 2015
she was friendly, intelligent, and caring. if needed, i would ask for her.

UofU Patient
January 27, 2015
My provider was friendly and professional. She was relatable and also approachable if I had questions or concerns of any type.

UofU Patient
January 19, 2015
The Dr. was very knowledgeable about my shoulder problem and I left feeling confident.

UofU Patient
January 14, 2015
Excellent care

UofU Patient
January 13, 2015
5. does not apply to me.

UofU Patient
December 17, 2014
She told me to stop smoking and I did!!!!

UofU Patient
December 03, 2014
I meet a PA in training and he was very nice and went over a lot of good information with me

UofU Patient
December 01, 2014
Love her! She is great! Very caring and helpful and knowledgeable and informative! She explained everything so well to me! Amazing provider! I knew/felt I was in great hands!

UofU Patient
November 06, 2014
good

UofU Patient
October 31, 2014
excellent!

UofU Patient
October 25, 2014
First the assistant came in and asked question and that person was very nice and professional. Then the PA came in and asked questions. Both of those individuals were very caring and appropriate. It took awhile for the doctor to come. She asked the same questions the assistant and the PA did. She seemed to have a contradictory opinion of the PA, and her recommendation for treatment and follow-up were not clear. This was a little odd and unsettling. As someone who works in health care, I want a clear understanding of treatment and follow-up. The doctor seemed almost reluctant to offer any treatment and acted as if I should not have come in to the doctor's office. This can be very off-putting to patients. I did not have the same interaction with the assistant or the PA.

UofU Patient
October 19, 2014
Malea was great, she even called me the next day with the test results before posting them to MyChart.

UofU Patient
September 30, 2014
excellent care was provided

UofU Patient
September 24, 2014
She was willing to spend time answering my questions. It felt like there was plenty of time allotted for my appointment. Sometimes Dr's seem rushed because their appointments are scheduled too close together. I'm glad it did not feel like that at this appointment.

UofU Patient
September 19, 2014
She was extremely rushed and didn't bother to get to know me. I was wearing a U of U t-shirt indicating I am an employee of the University and she couldn't even muster up enough small talk to ask me where I worked. She rushed me through the whole process with little explanation of what she was doing and why.

UofU Patient
September 14, 2014
she knows how to deal with people.

UofU Patient
September 07, 2014
I really liked my provider.

UofU Patient
August 25, 2014
Overall a very good experience. The PA gave me good information about new medication and what to look for prior to a follow-up visit.

UofU Patient
August 21, 2014
Everything was great. With it being our first visit, we felt very at ease and will be returning as the need arises.

UofU Patient
August 12, 2014
I wouldn't have any reservations to recommend this clinic to anyone!

UofU Patient
August 10, 2014
Malea was very pleasant and understanding. She did not have much understanding for my problem which was frustrating since the office visits are expensive; however, she did talk to someone who did later in the day and called me about it and had me schedule another appointment with that doctor (which was really great care, but doubled the price of my care).

UofU Patient
August 09, 2014
we had a good experience despite the long wait in the exam room

UofU Patient
July 24, 2014
I was very impressed with my provider.

UofU Patient
July 05, 2014
I introduced a new concern about some fungus growth beginning to appear in my toenails and asked if Dr. Satterwhite thought it might be a concern. She examined my toenails and told me about some possible side effects to my kidneys from the strongest medication. I remembered a similar conversation several years ago the last time I had toenail fungus. Dr. S. set up an appointment for me to meet with a diabetic podiatrist, for which I am grateful.

UofU Patient
July 03, 2014
The purpose of my visit was to fulfill my physical and the PA was very efficient and knowledgeable about her area of expertise. I felt confident about her recommendations for improving certain aspects of my health.

UofU Patient
June 24, 2014
Malea sent several messages to me on MyChart to see how I was doing after our visit. I was impressed with her concern.

UofU Patient
March 19, 2014
Malea was very friendly and easy to talk to. I definitely feel as though I was well taken care of. She was very thorough, double checking to make sure I didn't have any further questions before I left.

UofU Patient
March 13, 2014
She introduced herself and shook my hand when she entered the room, which was wonderful. Asked me about my history, any questions or concerns, and was very in addressing them.

UofU Patient
February 24, 2014
Hadn't been seen by this PA before, but I felt very comfortable and she was very thorough and helpful.

UofU Patient
February 11, 2014
while they were nice, I was not given a yes or no answer on whither my incision was infected nor was I give antibiotics in case it was. I left with the same information as when I came.

UofU Patient
February 10, 2014
She was really really great, answered questions, took my concerns seriously and gave me great care

UofU Patient
December 20, 2013
Left a message the next day never heard anything back. I cancelled my next appointment and when asked why explained. No phone call of apology nothing

UofU Patient
December 04, 2013
Provider clearly outlined plan of care and options and checked in with me to see if options were ones I was satisfied with. Plan of care seemed reasonable and well thought out.

UofU Patient
November 01, 2013
Great Experience

UofU Patient
October 28, 2013
One of my best medical experiences, thank you!

UofU Patient
October 25, 2013
Provider did not return my calls on the day I needed information about medications that were not covering my pain. The call was returned the next day which is unsatisfactory to me.

UofU Patient
October 23, 2013
I am going to look for another dr, I am frustrated with the lack of concern about the problems I have

UofU Patient
October 21, 2013
I love the Sugarhouse Clinic and it's location. The only thing that could make it better is an in house Pharmacy!

UofU Patient
October 14, 2013
Malea was very professional and kind. She was efficient and did not waste my time. She also suggested I come back for my annual which was a good idea. I've seen her before. I believe she is very trustworthy and friendly.

UofU Patient
September 10, 2013
While I felt like the PA knew what she was talking about and kept the explanations simple, she seemed reluctant and vague to explain who she would consult with about my problem. I feel like a PA should be clearly under the supervision of a licensed doctor, and not allowed to just dole out diagnoses and treatments by themselves. That made me a little uncomfortable.

UofU Patient
September 02, 2013
Satterwhite is the best! I want her to be our new family doctor

UofU Patient
August 20, 2013
Dr. Malea is awesome

UofU Patient
August 19, 2013
bad

UofU Patient
August 06, 2013
I felt the doctor was good, but she did not apologize for my wait (she might not have known how long I was in the exam room). I felt like she rushed through the exam.

UofU Patient
July 15, 2013
I've not seen an NP before. She was not as warm as the other doctors I've seen and I had a few issues that I needed help with. I don't feel like she really helped address some of them and she wanted me to come back for something I'd hoped to resolve during that visit. Some of the issues were embarassing to me and she didn't seem very empathetic towards that. She was knowledgeable which I appreciate, but I think I'll stick to my regular physicians next time.

UofU Patient
July 01, 2013
I have been an ICU nurse for 9 years, so I try very hard not to be an annoying patient. I do appreciate it when providers speak to me as a patient who has some background knowledge, and I felt that Malea was great in addressing my concerns on an appropriate level for me.
