UofU Patient July 05, 2016I have always had a wonderful experience with Dr. Stosser. I moved to Dr. Stosser after a difficult experience with my last primary care provider.

UofU Patient June 14, 2016I love Dr. Stoesser. She is an outstanding physician!
UofU Patient May 30, 2016I had to come back to the clinic because the physician forgot to tell me I needed lab work done.
UofU Patient May 09, 2016Dr. Stoesser is the most caring and thorough doctor I have had. She has listened to all my issues, and helped me go through multiple options and helped me choose what is best for me. When that doesn't work, she has taken extra time to talk me through other options. I wouldn't see anyone else!
UofU Patient April 25, 2016This was the second time I had seen Dr. Stoesser and I absolutely love her, she's one of your best! Was very attentive to my needs and understanding, in addition to being very kind and empathetic.

UofU Patient April 06, 2016Doctor always seems rushed like she's running behind

UofU Patient February 03, 2016I have already recommended Kristen Stoesser to a friend and she visited with her the week after my appointment. She was also very happy with her experience at this clinic and thanked me for my recommendation. I really appreciated the time the doctor spent with me and made me feel valued and like my visit was important and not just another thing to check off her list to get her day done.
UofU Patient January 16, 2016One of the best doctors I have seen! Very thorough. Super nice. Caring. So excited to find a doctor I like.

UofU Patient October 19, 2015Everytime I come to Sugar House Clinic I feel like I'm special because they all treat me with such niceness
UofU Patient October 14, 2015I love the doctors and the nurse staff at the Sugar House Clinic they are most excellent and I feel well taken care of every time I go there
UofU Patient September 28, 2015First visit and went very well. I felt heard and she didn't go too fast or seem disinterested. She made me feel comfortable and the follow up plan was clear.
UofU Patient September 18, 2015Really liked the doctor - and the nurse/assistant was excellent as well - but what I'm really pleased about was getting me signed up same visit on MyHealth so doctor could report results and suggested therapy within 2 days of visit - and both good news and a change in amount of medication - am extremely pleased with my new doctor and I like the clinic a great deal on my first visit!
UofU Patient August 24, 2015Dr.Stoesser is a very sweet and caring provider. Thank you for going the extra mile with getting additional labs
UofU Patient July 11, 2015I can't recommend Dr. Stoesser highly enough. Her care was truly excellent.
UofU Patient June 12, 2015Stoesser is great! I feel very comfortable with her and feel that she knows what she is doing and cares for her patients.
UofU Patient June 11, 2015I greatly appreciate the care and insight that Dr. Stoesser gives to me. She is very helpful.
UofU Patient May 28, 2015Very good patient experience. I felt Dr. Stroesser spent the time needed to fully understand my concern and explaining the diagnosis and care.
UofU Patient May 19, 2015Wish you would have recommended something for the pain
UofU Patient April 28, 2015I am so appreciative of Dr. Stoesser. She is so helpful and informative to me. She has even called me personally to inform me of more information that she has for me and she has been studying my charts from previous doctors to make sure she is doing the best for me. I just really appreciate her.
UofU Patient April 21, 2015i had an excellent visit
UofU Patient March 31, 2015I loved my visit with Dr. Stoesser will highly recommend her to anyone in need of a fabulous doctor.
UofU Patient March 23, 2015The Dr. Was in a hurry. She did not examine the problem thoroughly. She did not ask for the lab to take a culture to find out if I have bacterial or viral infection. She did not explain her opinion to me. She just asked me about what I wanted out of the visit and wrote an antibiotic and ran to her next appointment. Keep in mind that I was very nice about the student doing all the work for her without her being in the room when I was told she would be accompanying not in addition.
UofU Patient March 23, 2015She has been a good care provider.
UofU Patient March 23, 2015I was embarrassed because I cried during my appointment - while explaining my anxiety symptoms to Dr. Stoesser. I feel like she responded with grace and sensitivity.
UofU Patient March 21, 2015Dr. Stoesser is the best! She is very personable, and took her time making sure she addressed all my concerns.
UofU Patient March 21, 2015My time with Dr. Stoesser was very valuable to me. I understood everything she was discussing with me.
UofU Patient March 16, 2015care giver was recommended to me......
UofU Patient March 09, 2015As doctors go she is good. She is probably the best doctor in my adult life experience.
UofU Patient March 06, 2015Dr Clark is a very good Dr I have a great deal of confidence in her
UofU Patient February 09, 2015If I had the technical ability, I would clone Dr. Stoesser. As mentioned earlier, she is both a highly competent physician and an absolutely delightful person. She is easy to talk to and exudes concern for her patients.
UofU Patient February 02, 2015During the exam, the Physician was pushing on my left and right side. It was my kidney on the left that was my issue, but when she pushed in an area on my right side, I experienced some pain (likely my ovaries as I was getting ready to ovulate) When I winced and told her it hurt, she looked at the med student who was in the room and pulled some face. I don't think she realized I caught this. After the exam she said, if you have a kidney problem on the left, you would not experience pain on the right. Well, I did in fact experience pain on the right. While I'm sure not related to the kidney issue, no one likes to be made to feel as if they are wrong about their own experiences with their own body.
UofU Patient January 26, 2015Dr. Stoesser was excellent. She was very attentive and knowledgable.
UofU Patient January 19, 2015I am very impressed with Dr. Stoesser. I'm very glad I was able to get her as my PCP.
UofU Patient January 10, 2015did not address concerns - came in with fever and wheezing. after asking briefly about timing of symptoms, did not return to issue. doctor was clearly in a hurry.
UofU Patient December 28, 2014I had a positive experience from everyone. I was surprised they were able to get me in and took good care of me.
UofU Patient October 30, 2014Dr. Stoesser is the best. She takes time to explain things & listen to me. I always feel like I was treated super when I leave. I wish more doctors would take the time & care she does.
UofU Patient October 10, 2014Good
UofU Patient September 03, 2014I love Dr. Stoesser. She delivered my grandchildren and I trust her very much.
UofU Patient August 31, 2014Good
UofU Patient August 31, 2014Dr. Stoesser have been my family's provider since 2010. I love how she answers all my questions and addresses my concerns. She is very patient and she does not rush you. I am very much satisfied with the quality of care she gives
UofU Patient August 29, 2014Dr. Stoesser is very professional and very thorough.
UofU Patient August 22, 2014I am very pleased.
UofU Patient August 12, 2014she is friendly and nice
UofU Patient June 25, 2014#7 I understand English very well, thank you and my provider doesn't use strictly medical terminology in talking to me.
UofU Patient June 25, 2014Question # 10 I don't give recommendations unless specifically asked, which has hardly ever happened. What works for me may not be what someone else needs.
UofU Patient May 30, 2014Dr. Stoesser is always so nice and thorough. She researches to answer any questions, especially about medications that other doctors have prescribed. She never rushes you or hurries, and is always willing to discuss things with you.

UofU Patient May 26, 2014Dr Stoesser is the most caring, thorough, helpful doctor! I appreciate everything about her medical skills and her bedside manner. She is an excellent doctor!
UofU Patient May 23, 2014Focus was on list of symptoms without adequate synthesis of the symptoms/medications. Do not feel that issue was addressed.
UofU Patient May 15, 2014The nurse was informative about the vaccinations effects & very gentle & caring.
UofU Patient May 06, 2014recommended to coworkers who have now scheduled visits.
UofU Patient March 25, 2014Dr. Kirsten Stoesser is an excellent doctor! I am very impressed with her knowledge, her skills, her professionalism, her kindness, her thoroughness, her accuracy, and her willing to help me maintain optimum health. I think she is fabulous!
UofU Patient March 07, 2014Excellent!
UofU Patient February 13, 2014I remember how nice everyone was but I don't remember what we talked about
UofU Patient February 06, 2014The nurse provided valuable information about a new blood pressure medication that i had started using even though i had not asked for this specifically. It was good to learn of the signs i should be watching out for when using the medicine.
UofU Patient January 04, 2014I think my doctor is the very best and I appreciate how thorough, smart, caring, patient and helpful she is. She is always willing to go the extra mile for me and my family
UofU Patient December 22, 2013would have liked more time. Felt kind of rushed.
UofU Patient December 11, 2013Dr. Stoesser is obviously very smart and an excellent doctor. She explains things thoroughly without making the patient feel like they're being spoken down to. I may have to spend some time waiting for her to come in for my appointment, but it is well worth it to see her.
UofU Patient October 05, 2013Dr. Stoesser is one of the best.
UofU Patient October 01, 2013I thought I had a great doctor in Dr. McClellen and told all my friends and family that I wouldn't see anyone else since I liked her so much. But I needed to see someone quickly and unexpectedly, and this visit was also amazing. I'm starting to think that this clinic has no bad doctors.
UofU Patient October 01, 2013I was happy
UofU Patient September 02, 2013Very good experience
UofU Patient July 16, 2013Dr. Stoesser was very, very nice and welcoming. She was very thorough in the visit and I have complete confidence in her. I only wish she didn't seem so rushed at times.
UofU Patient July 12, 2013Dr Stoesser is a knowledgeable, caring, thorough, excellent doctor.
UofU Patient July 01, 2013Dr. Stoesser is an amazing clinician. She remembered my family and circumstances and asked about my family's growth. She listened to my issues and provided some great feedback - she related to my situation. She encouraged me to set goals and helped me do so - goals that were specific and had a time component for completion. She provided great resources for me to take advantage of (website for tracking weight loss and nutrition, nutritionist information, Well U program) and scheduled a follow up to ensure I was on track.
UofU Patient June 24, 2013Friendly and professional
UofU Patient June 03, 2013I always have a great experience at this clinic and I would most definitely recommend it to others.

UofU Patient May 01, 2013She seemed very knowledgeable about diabetes and I went away feeling like we were conquering it together. It was worth the $220 bill.
UofU Patient April 26, 2013Dr. Stoesser is an amazing physician. I would recommend her to anyone. She is very professional and she cares a lot about her patients.
UofU Patient April 19, 2013My care provider (and his attending) were not able to give me a definitive diagnoses, but that's okay because they ran different labs to try and figure it out.
UofU Patient March 18, 2013I am very happy with Dr. Stoesser as my doctor, she is very thorough and always answers all my questions.

UofU Patient March 08, 2013I feel she is the best docor there
UofU Patient February 13, 2013Dr stoeser was very kind and thorough, as always. The intern was very kind very careful.
UofU Patient February 13, 2013She was excellent even in her call back to us about the results of xray
UofU Patient February 08, 2013Like I said before, I was late, but she still made time for me. I also had some questions about my pregnancy tests and insurance coverage and she made sure to help me.
UofU Patient January 14, 2013We enjoy seeing Dr Stoesser
UofU Patient January 01, 2013I'd choose her as my Primary Case Physician if that were an option.
UofU Patient December 22, 2012Im very grateful for Dr. Stoesser
UofU Patient November 28, 2012Dr Stoesser was great as always!
UofU Patient November 27, 2012i was quite happy
UofU Patient November 26, 2012The doctor is watching my health indicators very carefully. I particularly like the My Chart communication. It gives me a chance to review what we discussed, because sometimes I don't retain it all.
UofU Patient November 12, 2012Only negative concerning this provider is difficulty in scheduling appointment times that work with my schedule
UofU Patient October 27, 2012i liked the doctor very postive feelings
UofU Patient October 22, 2012This was the first time I had seen Dr Stoesser, she was great!
UofU Patient October 15, 2012I like her but it's incredibly difficult to get in with her. It's always at least two weeks between the time I make the call and the actual appointment.
UofU Patient October 15, 2012very helpful exam and help in planning future care
UofU Patient October 04, 2012Dr. Stoesser called in another attending when the lesion turned out to be deeper and different from what she had anticipated. I appreciated her getting a second opinion.
UofU Patient September 04, 2012Dr Stoesser is a great doctor and I am so glad that I have been able to be seen by her. She is very knowledgable and very friendly
UofU Patient August 20, 2012Dr. Stoesser is always so thorough and will research and follow thru on medications, treatment, etc.
UofU Patient August 07, 2012The doctors at this clinic seem to be very hard working and sometimes overly busy. It would be nice to have a more relaxed conversation, but I realize there are other patients waiting.
UofU Patient June 30, 2012She was obviously running late, so everything felt rushed
UofU Patient June 13, 2012I feel sooo comfortable with her, and she doesn't make me feel like I'm rushed.
UofU Patient May 04, 2012Seemed like a very good doc
UofU Patient March 21, 2012Pretty good
UofU Patient March 10, 2012I would recommend Dr. Stoesser to any of my friends. She's very friendly and explains my care very well.
UofU Patient March 09, 2012Dr Stoesser is the best. I do not know her assistants name, but she is very good. Doctor said I have neuropathy, and while the cause hasn't been diagnosed yet, the pill she put me on has been very effective at managing the symptoms. At least I'm sleeping better even if they don't the cause yet.
UofU Patient March 08, 2012Great experience.... From the from desk all the way trough my whole appointment. I was VERY nervous about my procedure & My doctor was so patient & understanding. He even let me turn in my headphones so I would be distracted from my colposcopy & would get my mind off how scared I was. Both Dr. & assistant, Holly, were amazing. They offered me juice afterwards & made sure I understood everything that was going on. I've never had a doctor I stayed with for years but I am completely confident in this one :)
UofU Patient March 03, 2012At the end of, what I am sure must have been a very long week, Dr. Stoesser showed kindness, concern and professionalism. She is a great doctor!
UofU Patient January 28, 2012No problems were experienced. I appreciated that the staff was able to make an appointment on the same day I called.
UofU Patient January 09, 2012they give me written info about the whole visit so i dont have to worry that i will forget .
