UofU Patient August 29, 2016
I could have had a little more explanation of the problem I was experiencing.
UofU Patient August 23, 2016Dr. Pamela Hansen is exceptional. she is the first Dr. that has taken the time with me and gotten results. I pay out of pocket just to see her. I am so grateful.
UofU Patient August 19, 2016Excellent doctor, I feel I am in good hands.
UofU Patient August 13, 2016Doctor is new to me and trying hard to help with all my health problems, of which I have many.
UofU Patient July 13, 2016Dr. Hansen is an excellent doctor who is very concerned about her patients and wants to help them to get better and schedules you to come in early because of the pain you were experiencing
UofU Patient July 05, 2016Although my condition had somewhat resolved, I had questions for Dr. Hansen about what to do going forward, follow up, etc. She seemed very rushed and shook my hand and was out the door before I could ask her anything. She was in the room for less than 5 minutes. It was very frustrating and unacceptable.
UofU Patient June 22, 2016Dr Hansen is what I consider a "Real" Doctor. She is always helpful, explains and answers all my questions and has helped me thru some hard times. She is always positive and very caring I wish more Dr.S could follow her example. I for what ever reason Dr Hansen were to leave the University I would follow her if at all possible that is how much faith and trust I have in her as a medical professional
UofU Patient June 14, 2016Dr. Hansen is exceptional. I needed to know what to expect among a range of possibilities. I left very pleased with the information I was given. Dr. Hansen speaks with experience and authority but with a heartfelt compassion. I feel very fortunate to be under her care.
UofU Patient June 04, 2016I wasn't listening I think she explained something about what she saw on Xray the words I didn't understand and I didn't pay attention my fault not hers .
UofU Patient May 21, 2016Dr. Hansen is a "superstar" doctor
UofU Patient May 21, 2016felt confident I was getting best of care
UofU Patient May 20, 2016I didn't understand all the words, but she explained them to me.
UofU Patient May 11, 2016Dr Hansen is always courteous and compassionate, as well as thorough, great physician!
UofU Patient May 01, 2016Pam Hansen is extraordinary! Fantastic physician.
UofU Patient April 29, 2016Very good experience
UofU Patient April 19, 2016Love this doctor.
UofU Patient April 08, 2016Dr Jansen was a great listener and took the time to help me decide the best care and treatment for my condition.
UofU Patient March 23, 2016They told me as they came in that they were super busy that day. So, they seemed a little rushed but still answered all my questions.
UofU Patient March 19, 2016Dr Hansen was amazing! I didn't feel rushed during the visit. I felt like she really wanted me to understand what I had going on and what could be done to make my knee better. I like that she is all about trying different options first versus surgery to deal with my knee pain and problems. Love her and will keep going to her.
UofU Patient February 01, 2016Dr. Hansen is awesome. She is very understanding and always makes me feel better about what is hurting me. She is sympathetic and always gives me great recommendations that are more integrative to deal with injuries and pain maintenance. She is wonderful and I recommend her all the time!
UofU Patient January 30, 2016I was super impressed with Dr. Hansen. I deeply appreciated the way she listened and answered my questions. I felt confident and cared for by her. Felt she was exceptional in every way. My sincere thanks to her for her time and support and encouragement.
UofU Patient January 29, 2016Dr. Hansen is wonderful. She's very kind and compassionate. I feel that she really cares about me and my back and sciatic issues!
UofU Patient January 23, 2016I have a rare great find in Dr. Hansen. No airs of superiority nor status. She simply cares about me not as a patient but as a fellow human being. She confidently knows what she knows (and that is vast) and knows what she doesn't. When she doesn't have the answer to the problem she determinedly enlists others to solve it. Thank you Dr. Hansen, you've restored my faith in the health care system
UofU Patient January 22, 2016Dr. Pamela Hansen has been so patient and really listened and I believe she cares very deeply. She treats me as a patient that has individual needs and concerns. At other institutions I feel like it is rushed and the approach is cookie cutter. With Dr. Hansens lead over my care at U of U orthopedics I finally feel like I could get better and manage successfully get through back and neck injuries from the past. I am truly so grateful!
UofU Patient January 07, 2016I think the doctor's see to many people in a day.
UofU Patient December 05, 2015I am a Veteran that has struggled to get the.right care. I have full faith that i csn finally recieve comprehensive.treatment that will improve my quality of life. The VA is a joke comparitively
UofU Patient October 31, 2015Dr. Hansen was outstanding on every one of the items listed above!
UofU Patient October 12, 2015Dr. Hansen was very kind and informative.
UofU Patient October 11, 2015Dr Hansen was terrific!
UofU Patient October 06, 2015I spent a good amount of time with Dr Hansens resident and explained my hx. When Dr Hansen came in I appreciated that I could tell she had looked at my previous scans/labs/hx to some degree. However I was concerned that the resident was not able to fully communicate all of my concerns and therefore didnt feel like all of them were addressed. I think Dr Hansen was too quick to jump to only a muskulotel skeletal issue and not consider other contributing factors to my dx without me really pushing her. Once we discussed one possibility and when I questioned for the other possibility she said she would discuss that next time. Considering I have been in pain for 5+ months and took about 2 months to get into her I really wasn't interested in waiting until another followup visit a few weeks out to discuss this. I perceived she had spent enough time with me and that had to move on, which I fully get and understand the need to stay on schedule but still the same....I didn't want to wait longer. This caused me to go to another provider to address this concern. Additionally, I didn't really feel like she could trust/believe/see that I was very aware and articulate of what was happening to my body and the symptoms I was experiencing. She was kind and articulate to explain things but I felt she had a preconceived notion of my dx and was saying more what she wanted to say rather than really addressing my concern. It required significant questioning and convincing for her to really
UofU Patient October 03, 2015Dr. Hansen is very professional. This clinic was highly recommended to me. I feel it was the right place to come to.
UofU Patient September 23, 2015She wasn't great, but got the job done. She listened halfheartedly and didn't show very much sympathy for my pain. It seemed like she was rushed and my pain isn't as bad as the person next doors, so she just got the job done.
UofU Patient September 13, 2015I didn't feel like Dr. Hansen was in a rush and she listened to my concerns.
UofU Patient September 03, 2015Exceptional care. I especially liked how Dr. Hansen asked: "so how can I help you today?" The way she phrased the question, in the context of her history-taking and physical exam, made me feel listened to.
UofU Patient August 30, 2015The good thing about Dr. Hansen is that I trust her decisions concerning my health.
UofU Patient August 07, 2015Without doubt, the best experience I have ever had with an orthopedic doctor! And I have had a lot of experiences.
UofU Patient July 25, 2015Dr Hansen has been wonderful.
UofU Patient July 10, 2015felt a little awkward, maybe because of me (fed up with being in pain), maybe because of the resident (felt like a checklist and not necessarily listening--but I get it), or maybe the provider (felt like been there, done that).
UofU Patient July 10, 2015Dr. Hansen, is wonderful and is very committed to helping me find relief with my back pain.
UofU Patient June 26, 2015Dr. Hansen is wonderful. She is caring and competent.
UofU Patient June 25, 2015she was excellent! thorough and developed a good plan.
UofU Patient June 18, 2015Superlative professional approach by Dr. Hansen!
UofU Patient May 26, 2015I enjoyed Dr. Pam Hansen and the ortho resident in the room. This provided a highly educational environment for both me and the resident.
UofU Patient May 18, 2015Dr. Hansen is fantastic. She listens well and shows genuine concern. I highly recommend her
UofU Patient May 11, 2015I've had this neck problem for years. unfortunate that it had to flare so severely during my stay here. Dr. Hansen is the first Dr. to X-ray, show me the results, and explain to me what is going on. I feel like I may actually get this problem solved!! She's fabulous!!
UofU Patient May 09, 2015Dr. Hansen is very approachable and caring. She was very understanding of my concerns.
UofU Patient May 02, 2015Every time I started to as a question or speak to her about what was going on, and all she seemed to keep keying on is my weight, and I already know that. But she never took the time to listen to me, or let me talk to her about how the condition was affecting me. If I go back, it will it be with Dr. Hansen.
UofU Patient April 28, 2015I enjoyed the visit with Dr. Hansen and also the resident who performed most of the exam.
UofU Patient April 13, 2015Would have liked a more specific timeline about healing and returning to activities.
UofU Patient April 12, 2015I felt like my Dr. didn't really listen to my concerns. I am a two time cancer survivor and I felt like my Dr. just brushed off my questions and concerns. I felt like my appointment was a waste of my time.
UofU Patient April 08, 2015I really like Dr. Hanson...I would refer her to others.
UofU Patient February 28, 2015Dr Hansen is THE BEST - the way she handled delivering some very devastating news was INCREDIBLE!!! I have so much confidence in her and her ability to GET THINGS MOVING ... Bless her!!!
UofU Patient February 28, 2015I was very pleased with my appointment. I'm happy with my decision.I have confidence in DR Hansons knowledge and ability to give me the shots. Thanh you.
UofU Patient February 16, 2015I was very satisfied with my visit with Dr. Hanson. She was professional, clear and timely. I have been to this same clinic (diff provider) in the past with very long waits and less satisfied with care.
UofU Patient January 22, 2015she is a very caring Doctor
UofU Patient January 21, 2015I was so impressed with the way she explained my condition to me. It made it easy for me to understand the issues and I also felt she was very knowledgeble about the information she was giving me..
UofU Patient December 27, 2014no medications
UofU Patient December 19, 2014Because my prob is for the neck Dr Hansen did no tell me that I had to see a neck dr for the injections she recommended. Think that should have been addressed right away instead of several visits later
UofU Patient December 05, 2014Dr Hansen has always been upfront with my medical problems. She is very thoughtful.
UofU Patient December 02, 2014Dr. Hansen was great. She listened to my concerns and ideas about my situation and confirmed my diagnosis. I had seen a previous provider for this same concern and my visit with her left my feeling reassured and more confident about my situation where in the other provider left me feeling worried and unsure. I would absolutely recommend Dr. Hansen to anyone and would confidently return to see her if necessary.
UofU Patient November 28, 2014I have recommended Dr. P Hansen to several friends. she is an excellent doctor and a very approachable physician when a patient has questions.
UofU Patient November 24, 2014Dr. Hansen listens and understands my concerns. I was not not hesitant to tell her the other ailments that i feel confidential because, I could see that she has compassion and concern. She went through my previous procedure which I totally forgot (X-ray) that concerns about my current treatment, she is very efficient.
UofU Patient November 20, 2014Both Dr. Cushman and Dr. Hansen were approachable and thorough.
UofU Patient October 31, 2014Dr. Hansen is a wonderful physician. She listens to your concerns and offers suggestions while explaining options. She is patient, and cares about the whole patient, not just the portion of the body she is treating. I trust her judgment and skills completely.
UofU Patient October 20, 2014Definately
UofU Patient October 19, 2014Dr. Hansen has helped heal not only my body but also my mind. I appreciated her reassurance and care. I noticed that after I left I felt much stronger within my mind (Previously, I had felt quite fragile), I left feeling like I could overcome the pain and get strong again. She sent me physical therapy and that was also a positive experience for me.
UofU Patient October 16, 2014Dr. Hansen spent time with me explaining my medications. It helped out tremendously in my understanding of my options.
UofU Patient October 09, 2014I just love Dr. Pam Hansen, she is always caring, thoughtful and very knowledgeable.
UofU Patient October 02, 2014Dr. Hansen is great! She really explained things to me.
UofU Patient September 26, 2014DR. HANSEN HAS BEEN MY DR. AT LEAST 6 YRS......SHE IS WONDERFUL .... ALWAYS LISTENS AND GIVES HONEST TRUTHFULL ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS
UofU Patient September 19, 2014Pam Hansen is a fantastic doctor. She is very efficient, but also very caring and thorough in addressing the problem.
UofU Patient September 09, 2014Dr. Hansen is caring and empathetic. She takes time to explain and listen to your concerns, as well as what else is going on in your life that may affect your condition.
UofU Patient August 22, 2014I REALLY LIKE DR HANSEN, I FEEL VERY COMFORTABLE AND AT EASE IN TELLING HER MY PROBLEMS. WILL DEFINITELY REFER HER.
UofU Patient August 22, 2014Dr. Hansen is great. Despite the fact that she is unable to solve my back problems, she seems to really care and want to help.
UofU Patient August 21, 2014I was a little confused abt sling- Dr Hansen initially told me I'd be in a sling for elbow fracture and medical assistant told me slings aren't used on elbows...I was put in splint. Ultimately, Dr Hansen did the right thing, including referring me to hand and arm orthopedic surgeons and I'm grateful for her care. Loved the medical assistant.
UofU Patient August 21, 2014Dr. Hansen is very engaging, thorough and knows her stuff! I have enjoyed the opportunity to partner with her in my healthcare.
UofU Patient August 19, 2014Dr. Pamela Hansen is always caring and insightful. By giving me a quality diagnosis of the cause of pain, I was able to research at home and find additional ways to improve my outcome and speed my recovery.
UofU Patient August 18, 2014I love Dr. Pam Hansen. She is the best. She knows what she is doing and she is always so nice.
UofU Patient August 07, 2014Dr. Hansen helped me to feel much better about the pain I was having. She always explains things to me and is very understanding. I really appreciate her professionalism and her 'down to earth' demeanor. I think she is a great doctor!
UofU Patient July 29, 2014I have already recommended Dr. Hansen to friends and coworkers on several occasions. I know of two that have been treated by Dr. Hansen
UofU Patient July 03, 2014Dr Hansen is very professional and very helpful in my care
UofU Patient July 03, 2014Dr. Hansen is great.
UofU Patient June 25, 2014Excellent doctor! Knowledgeable and took the time needed to listen to my problem. Listened well.
UofU Patient June 17, 2014We love the Ortho Center - have recommended to friends in the past and will continue to do so. Always great care and friendly service.
UofU Patient June 13, 2014very good
UofU Patient June 12, 2014I have seen Dr Hansen on several occasions. I have referred her to many others based on my experience. She is thoughtful, considerate and communicates very effectively. Though I have seen other physicians for other treatment, Dr. Hansen is my choice for my spine treatment.
UofU Patient June 06, 2014dr. Hansen showed concern and caring for my on-going problem as well as new symptoms. she talks with me, not to me. makes sure I understand treatment options. she's great!
UofU Patient May 26, 2014My physician was awesome! She listened to my other health/medical concerns even when it didn't pertain to her specialty and gave recommendations. She explained what we were looking at on my x-rays and also showed understanding with my concern for the prescription that was given.
UofU Patient May 22, 2014Dr. Duncan was awesome and so was Dr. Hansen. I was so glad to be able to spend some time with them. They were so professional and so understanding of my situation and gave me guidance that will help me to improve my condition. They were an A++, both of them.
UofU Patient May 20, 2014satisfactory
UofU Patient May 11, 2014Extremely professional and knowledgeable, one of the best medical experiences I've had in my 64+ years.
UofU Patient April 27, 2014I just feel like I am a burden to my Dr. she was 10 to 15 minutes late coming in,then she asked me a few questions and that was it. Did not examine me had me walk on my toes back and forth. She said see you in 8 wks that was it
UofU Patient April 25, 2014I was referred to PT, given exercises and a molded heel cup. I had one visit with a follow up scheduled in 2 weeks. I think more frequent follow-up with PT would be beneficial and will request that at my next visit.
UofU Patient April 19, 2014I was disappointed with my visit. Dr. Hansen has always been really nice but this day I felt that she just didn't care about my problem. I know we all have bad days, however, that doesn't help my pain go away! She just didn't seem all that concerned about my problem.
UofU Patient April 11, 2014It would be nice to know if the provider received the Xrays from the PCP and what her interpretation of the Xrays was.
UofU Patient March 20, 2014Dr. Hanson was awesome! Very informative and helpful. I also really appreciated the care that Dr. Wilson (resident) provided. She was very helpful in answering all of my questions and giving me tips on how to manage my pain without medication. Her patient care and quality is fantastic!
UofU Patient March 19, 2014So far I'm very impressed with Dr. Hansen.
UofU Patient February 08, 2014good
UofU Patient January 08, 2014I left my visit feeling extremely discouraged. I have not been given a diagnosis after several visits and did not feel that my concerns and questions were properly addressed. I feel that I was not taken seriously and that there was not much effort put forth to help diagnose and resolve a chronic pain issue that I have been having for over a year.
UofU Patient January 06, 2014I am looking forward to having someone I feel will listen to me as I work to help my body be better
UofU Patient December 19, 2013Dr. Pam Hansen was did an excellent job explaining my condition, how my body reacts to the situation and what were the options for my best treatments.
UofU Patient December 13, 2013I only had good things to say about her.
UofU Patient November 04, 2013Excellent diagnosis procedure. Fast but attentive and accurate.
UofU Patient October 11, 2013DR. Pamela Hansen is a caring great doctor, with knowledge and interest for my health
UofU Patient October 01, 2013Dr. Hansen is an excellent doctor. She gets an A+ for empathy, correct diagnosis and treatment and doing all things necessary for a positive outcome for the patient. She has an excellent staff in the clinic and a procedure was scheduled efficiently and correctly.
UofU Patient September 30, 2013She took spent less than 5 minutes with me addressing my concerns.
UofU Patient September 23, 2013It was apparent that Dr Hansen was very busy the day the day of my visit. I was impressed that she did spend a considerable amount of time with me.
UofU Patient September 02, 2013I HAVE ONLY HAD TWO VISITS WITH THE CARE PROVIDER. THE FIRST VISIT SHE SEEMED A LITTLE MORE RUSHED BUT DID ANSWER ALL MY QUESTIONS. THE SECOND VISIT SHE WAS MORE RELAXED AND AGAIN ANSWERED ALL MY QUESTIONS AND INCLUDED ME IN DECISION MAKING. SHE SEEMED WARM AND CARING.
UofU Patient August 13, 2013After I left from my appointment I thought I understood the problem, but then I realized much more information could have been shared regarding my issue. I had to learn more via internet (google) than the doctor.
UofU Patient August 06, 2013Dr. Hansen spent only about three minutes in the room with me. She decided an injection was best and when I asked a question she told her resident to explain it to me and left the room. She did not examine me or answer my questions. I would have liked to talk about why my problem developed and how to best discover why it happened along with how to keep it from happening to other locations in my spine, but did not have an opportunity. While I understand that she was having a particularly stressful day with a patient needing to be admitted to the hospital I was very unhappy with her lack of concern for my appointment. I scheduled my injection with another doctor and will follow up with another doctor.
UofU Patient August 05, 2013Dr. Hansen is excellent!
UofU Patient August 02, 2013very rushed, sort of belittled my concerns and pain. funny....two days later the ENT dr said i HAD problems stemming from my NECK, which Hanson brushed of as ''knots in my muscles''
UofU Patient July 22, 2013Pam Hansen was so kind and addressed all of my concerns. She was thorough, efficient, and supportive. She exceeded my expectations!
UofU Patient July 15, 2013Dr. Hansen let me participate in my own care. I felt she listened and we worked together on the best possible treatment.
UofU Patient July 03, 2013I was worked in for this appointment because my doctor was out of town and Dr. Hansen took the time to explain what was going on, make suggestions, and give me a treatment plan. Exceptional doctor and very helpful.
UofU Patient July 01, 2013After Many Years Of Unkown Cause Of Symptoms Was Able To Identify diagnose And Inform Patient Widely On matter.
UofU Patient June 28, 2013I was very disappointed in my care. I was referred to this Dr. by Dr. Powell a very considerate doctor. I came to have some questions answered about my back pain and try to set up a program to improve my conditions. Basically I was told the same that Dr. Powell the referring physician told me. However, not much was explained to me as to the reason of my condition, if it will improve or worsen with time or ask many questions about my condition. The doctor spoke to the physicians assistant than she did me. She told me I needed to walk more and that people my age all have aches and pains. I told her I tried to be as active as I can.. I walk and ride my bike over 8 miles every day. I hike in the Wasatch mountains 5-7 hours every weekend. I guess I need to walk more. ... Overall I was not pleased with how the doctor talked down to me. I will not recommend her to anyone I love or know.
UofU Patient June 04, 2013I had a great experience during this visit. I left with a much better understanding of what I am experiencing regarding my pain.
UofU Patient June 02, 2013Very professional and competent process
UofU Patient May 27, 2013Poor experience. Did not seem like she cared about my concern or pain.
UofU Patient May 06, 2013I am disappointed with the services that Dr. Hansen provided for me. She spent literally 5 minutes total with me with my two visits combined. She did not explain what my MRI detected- in person, or show the results to me. She showed no concern that I waited for two days for my pain medication- I had to call and pester the staff to pester her for a response on my medications. I felt no concern from Dr. Hansen about the pain I have been in. I was very disappointed. If I could give suggestions - I would say: spend more time explaining whats going on to your patient- dont have the patient be the person to be responsible for calling in their own prescription to YOUR staff, and respond to any concerns of the patient within a reasonable amount of time.
UofU Patient May 06, 2013The doctor confused me with another patient, then excused herself by saying that she had just reviewed 20 charts before walking in. This was totally understandable but when I called back another time with a question about PT based on new xrays, i was told "the doctor only deals with your low back." She sees me for my neck. I have the sense that I am an invisible person on a conveyor belt.
UofU Patient April 18, 2013The only issue I had with the Dr was that she did not introduce herself when she came into the room. In fact she never did introduce her self.
UofU Patient April 08, 2013Thank you, Pamela Hansen, for the extraordinarily personal, sensitive, and professional care. I felt heard, seen, understood, and empowered. Exceptional care!
UofU Patient April 05, 2013Dr. Hansen was wonderful. As was her resident.
UofU Patient March 22, 2013I felt very "brushed over"... unimportant to the doctor. As if she didn't really give a shit about the pain I was feeling.
UofU Patient March 15, 2013All in all a good experience
UofU Patient March 05, 2013I love the attention and care I am shown at the Orthopedic Center! Wonderful staff!
UofU Patient March 01, 2013My main issue was delay in being seen, which took away from fully addressing issue.
UofU Patient January 29, 2013No complaints!
UofU Patient January 13, 2013And I didn't have to get weighed and measured! I'm so tired of that-thank you!
UofU Patient December 30, 2012Will not return to see this care giver. Bedside manners very poor.
UofU Patient December 24, 2012Great care, both in acupuncture and exercise - and a gift to boot!!! Thank you for the headphones, too!
UofU Patient December 24, 2012Excellent
UofU Patient December 17, 2012After describing my symptoms, Dr. seemed to know exactly what to look for, where to look. X-rays were promptly taken and made available. Dr. helped me understand what they showed, what caused my pain, how to attempt to relieve it.
UofU Patient December 14, 2012re. EMG: MD seemed to have little interest in my asking questions about MY body--very cool & abrupt manner. The assistants were appropriate & friendly.
UofU Patient December 05, 2012I am in a lot of pain, and I appreciate the care & attention to detail in helping me. Hopefully this will help over time.
UofU Patient October 29, 2012The doctors and nurses were exceptionally attentive to my needs and compasisonate with my care during the procedure.
UofU Patient July 10, 2012I was being seen for back pain. I have some herniated and bulging discs, on 3 or 4 levels, along with some permanent nerve damage on my left side. I didn't feel like I was believed. I was prescribed physical therapy, which I will do and have done for
UofU Patient July 01, 2012i would never send anyone i know to dr hansen never ever.
UofU Patient June 28, 2012Dr. Hansen is very helpful with a great bedside manner
UofU Patient June 18, 2012Dr Hanson did not offer medication to relieve severe pain. I had to see another doctor later to get pain meds so that I could make it to the airport the next day.
UofU Patient June 05, 2012She took the necessary time with me. She demonstrated a new physical therapy exercise that she wanted me to do -- and when I wasn't sure I understood it, she demonstrated and asked me to do it under her her supervision. She answered all of my questions honestly.
UofU Patient May 11, 2012excellent experience, have already recommended to friends, family and others
UofU Patient May 09, 2012Everyone is very pleasant and friendly but I feel I am wasting the caregiver's time and they are anxious to get on to the next task and next patient
UofU Patient May 01, 2012It was a good appointment; however, I realized after the appointment that I don't actually know what the diagnosis was or have any idea what may have caused the injury. But I am following up with physical therapy and I know I can go back if it doesn't get better.
UofU Patient March 30, 2012I have had two injections, neither of which has worked and little explanation of why it wouldn't and what to do next.
