UofU Patient January 27, 2014
Jill is great. She is professional but also kind. She listened to my history, was not hurried, discussed treatment options, giving my ideas her attention. I have complete confidence in her.
UofU Patient December 15, 2013the best available
UofU Patient November 25, 2013I was really scared going in -- felt wonderful going out
UofU Patient November 05, 2013i would recommend this care provider to anyone out there!! i was very very pleased with the team that worked with me and helped me with my surgery!!!
UofU Patient November 04, 2013Jill Erickson is the best PA I have ever had. She listens carefully and I feel that she is concerned about me. She has always given me answers which were correct and logical. She also instills a great deal of confidence that what is happening is what should happen and will eventually be to my benefit. I really appreciate Jill.
UofU Patient October 29, 2013ALREADY RECOMMENDED
UofU Patient October 28, 2013I wish all the providers were like Jill. She is very informative and makes me feel comfortable. I have had to spend more time recently in Dr's offices and she is by fare one of the best.
UofU Patient October 21, 2013My appointment with Jill Erickson went very well: she was clear and succinct in her explanations, and very caring and empathetic. I didn't feel rushed. She's very professional.
UofU Patient October 21, 2013I have had a unwanted reaction to one of the shots I got during the visit, but that is certainly not the fault of the practitioner. In fact, my follow-up calls have been handled with sincere concern for my well being.
UofU Patient October 15, 2013You have to keep Jill Erickson. Enough said.
UofU Patient October 14, 2013I love, love, LOVE this center and all the people who we have come in contact with there!! They are fantastic! We do not however, get to ever see or spend much time with his actual Ortho. We deal more with his PA which is great because she is AWESOME too. I am sure it is set up to be this way but it would be nice if the actual ortho performing the surgery would spend just a little more time with the patient or even take place in at least one of the follow up visits post op. Not that the PA is not qualified because they are. It's just re-assuring/comforting at times, to hear from the actual MD as to your progress and recovery.
UofU Patient October 08, 2013Jill is excellent...she knows the field and seems quite aware of patient issues. I felt she thoroughly addressed my concerns and had excellent recommendations.
UofU Patient September 03, 2013I am so appreciative of the care and concern shown by the medical staff & nurses. It is outstanding.
UofU Patient July 29, 2013Jill Erickson is always pleasant and takes the time needed to answer questions!
UofU Patient July 02, 2013PA Jill Erickson was excellent!
UofU Patient June 11, 2013Dr. Jill explained everything and we have recommended the clinic to many many friends who have needed knee replacements-you are the best :)
UofU Patient May 15, 2013P. A. Erickson, said she would recommend any treatment I might need in the future at the So. Jordan clinic. I told her it was closer (10 min.) to our home. I appreicated her help.
UofU Patient May 07, 2013Jill Erickson is just wonderful. She is knowledgeable and very efficient. She also seems to really care about her patients. She is the best one ever to inject my knee and have it last a long time. I would highly recommend her to anyone.
UofU Patient May 06, 2013I honestly would have preferred to see Dr. Peters. Jill is great, but she didn't seem sure of what to do in my case.
UofU Patient April 30, 2013Jill was excellent. I appreciated her honesty and knowledge.
UofU Patient April 22, 2013PA Jill Erickson, spent time with me answering questions, she made me feel I was her on concern at the appointment time. She did not rush with me, thanks Jill.
UofU Patient April 08, 2013VERY GOOD
UofU Patient March 12, 2013She did not seem to know what things meant. When reading my EMG result she said multiple times, "I don't know what that means." These types of comments severely decreased my confidence in her and her ability to actually know what was going on. I felt that she did not know or really care what my concern was. I was not able to give her the 'easy' answer so I felt she just brushed me off and passed me off to someone else by telling me to go to PT.
UofU Patient March 08, 2013Jill is always very pleasant and courteous
UofU Patient March 05, 2013Jill Erickson is a professional and knows her job. She is an outstanding care provider.
UofU Patient February 20, 2013We have been very impressed and so pleased with the care and service we have received from this department. Can't say enough about the process from beginning to this point.
UofU Patient February 19, 2013practically non-verbal
UofU Patient February 11, 2013Jill was caring trteated me then gave me options we could do if this didn't work

UofU Patient January 08, 2013Very positive experience!
UofU Patient January 01, 2013Everybody at the clinic treats me extremely well
UofU Patient December 26, 2012Jill Erickson gets my vote for excellence! I was very satisfied with her help in planning for future needs; she gave me the info I need to get ready for future action on my right knee as well as helping immediately by giving me palliative treatment.
UofU Patient December 26, 2012Jill took time to copy for me a stack of information about applying for Medicaid, for my daughter.
UofU Patient December 18, 2012Jill Erickson does a great job of spending plenty of time with me; she doesn't act like I'm just another patient on her to-do lsit for the day, she takes the time and explains everything. She also allows me to respond to ensure I understood and answers any additional questions I have.
UofU Patient December 03, 2012THANK YOU JILL!
UofU Patient November 05, 2012Jill Ericksen was great, very knowledgable, easy to talk to, she spent time with us, we did not feel rushed, explained everything
UofU Patient October 15, 2012I continue to recommend freinds and family to the care of the UofU and to Dr Peters and Jill and others. That fact if there is a problem the quality of care providers is excelent if needed
UofU Patient October 02, 2012We like that she is direct and professional and caring at the same time!
UofU Patient September 25, 2012Jill was great!
UofU Patient September 18, 2012She seemed well versed in her field but not in my underlying condition. Seems like she would have a general knowledge of medicine.
UofU Patient September 17, 2012I really enjoyed my time with Jill
UofU Patient September 10, 2012Jill does an excellent job.
UofU Patient September 10, 2012Jill was very friendly and answered my questions. She even provided me a list of podiatric staff that could assist with an issue unrelated to my visit. I appreciate her time and attention.
UofU Patient August 14, 2012Would recommend her to anyone.
UofU Patient August 07, 2012This is the third time I have seen Jill. I have always been impressed with her demeanor, her knowledge and her ability to discuss the problem(s). I am very comfortable listening to what she has to say.
UofU Patient July 23, 2012Jill has always been very professional and friendly. If all the PA's I hve dealt with over the past 40 years were as friendly as Jill, it would have been wonderful. Happy to say most all were not at University of Utah Health Care.
UofU Patient July 17, 2012I felt completely satisfied with the explanation of my issues
UofU Patient July 16, 2012I have enjoyed the skilled services and care of Jill Erickson in the past and have always appreciated having this skillful and caring person available for my medical needs. Top quality!
UofU Patient May 12, 2012Jill does an excellent job of including patient in the conversation regarding their care options. Is always willing to answer my questions, takes the time with you and makes you feel informed and part of the process when it comes to reatment options
UofU Patient May 10, 2012They treated me like an individual and not like a patient. They took time to explain things to you and the were concerned about my problem. I'm glad to have Dr Peters and Dr. Erickson taking care of me.
UofU Patient May 03, 2012Jill Ericson rocks!
UofU Patient April 28, 2012I expected a little more information as to what other treatment choices I had, but there was obviously none since I have scoleosis that is getting worse with hip replacement and knee involvement. the provider did not even think I may be helped with some physical therapy exercises.
UofU Patient April 28, 2012I had some fears from my last hip replacement and Jill eased all those fears for the other hip replacement I have coming up. We discussed the problems I had (and caused myself) in the hospital last time and I feel reassured she will put notes in my chart so the same things won't happen again.
UofU Patient March 24, 2012I wish she would of went into greater detail on what may happen. My experience was not a good one. she explained that it would take about 8 to 12 weeks to be the greatest help. But I was told nothing of adverse reactions. I had a very bad adverse reaction to the procedure.
UofU Patient January 26, 2012in one word pleased
