The poor response on caregivers proposed treatment refers to the lack of information on the cost of the heart monitor. Costs for uninsured patients should be discussed first

Dr Kottarathil is a great doctor whom I recommend to my family and friends.

I felt as if I wasn't being listened to. I stated my condition that I've had for awhile and he was getting details wrong that I had just stated. I felt as if he was rushing me out and briefly considered some options.

Dr. Kotarathil is a treasure, a compassionate medical provider who listens intently to the patient's concerns and takes measures to take care of issues when the patient is in his office. .

Dr. K was very nice and helpful but does not understand my active lifestyle and concerns about diet

Dr. Thomas Kottarathil MD was very professional and helpful. I would highly recommend him to other patients.

Dr. K was able to allay fears I had about a mold allergy and some things I could do about it. He is and has always been a brilliant diagnostician, in my experience. I suspect that a few years doing this means he has seen every ailment extant in addition to his medical training.

Dr. K was professional, but a bit cold and came off as condescending at times but I'm sure it's because he was in a rush. Listened for all my symptoms and made sure to always ask if there was more, but treatment was not a discussion. Simply a decision determined by him

Dr K is amazing just so you know. He understood and clearly answered my previously unknown connections to my many autoimmune disorders

Honestly it was a really uncomfortable experience and I left feeling like I wasn't listened to and had no clue why he was prescribing what he did. The appointment was all over the place.

UofU Patient June 15, 2022

I love Dr. K, but this time it was a horrible experience, and I had to seek care for the same issue somewhere else. However, I communicated that treatment by the other provider (outside of U of U) that I had and informed Dr. K's staff in hopes the team would pass along the message to Dr. K. I am not sure why this happened (no cortisone injection for the pain), but I was scheduled for a cortisone injection (Dr. K himself told me to come in for a cortisone injection), and I even confirmed in March/April (you can see on Mychart). Yet, upon arrival, he'd declined without an apparent reason, leaving me in pain, and to deal with setting up an appointment with the orthopedic doctor's office across the hall. In trying to set up the ortho appointment, I was advised it would take 3-6 months to treat the pain that I'd experienced since my appointment with Dr. K back in January, where he'd told me if the pain continued to come in for a cortisone injection. Furthermore, the ortho's office told Courtney, Medical Assistant, in Dr. K's office, to provide me with a cortisone injection for the pain because of a long wait time and that the injection was the same sort of injection he'd done beforehand. However, it never took place, and no clear explanation; I had to leave the office in severe pain with no options but to wait for an ortho doc appointment to gain pain relief in 3-6 months, emergency room, etc. Folks in Dr. K's office were clueless on why he did not provide the cortisone injection along with schedulers as he'd done the same cortisone injections in his office in the same location/area of the body. I went to another provider after people in Dr. K's office told me they'd call me back to get something set up with him for the shot because the ortho office said to Courtney, the medical assistant in Dr. K's office, to provide a cortisone injection because of the length of time to gain pain relief was too long. However, the office said Dr. K nor another provider would not provide the cortisone injection. So, I had to seek care elsewhere, which was a nightmare to find on such short notice and in so much pain. I am saddened this took place, but I do care for him as a doctor, but this was the wrong call, and it was simple according to the ortho's office across the hall and the outside provider I saw. I was able to gain a cortisone shot with additional medication to ensure instant relief. I'd love to understand why Dr. K chose not to because I've gone to him for years, and well, he was wrong on this call. Again, I still love him and think he is a fantastic doctor, but I'll consider other options when in similar situations--no one should leave a doctor's office in pain with no options--no one, ever.

I left feeling unsupported, no idea what's really going on with me and no written treatment plans to follow. It sucks to have a follow up appointment just to get bad news that could've been given to me two weeks prior.

As always Dr K is the best. We are lucky to have him.

I am very grateful to have found Dr. Kottarathil! He understands autoimmune conditions and is the first provider I've seen to provide a comprehensive dietary and supplement plan to bring me back to health. He wrote up my immediate plan of action in a brief, easy-to-understand letter that I can reference. These changes do require some research and dedication, and my one suggestion is that it would be wonderful if a nutritionist could be brought on to supplement his work. I am already feeling better implementing his suggestions!

UofU Patient April 18, 2022

Dr. K is very professional with me he explains what's going on with blood work what's going on my health what I should do what I shouldn't do he's always been very very good talked to me since he's been here and I was one of his first patients very good Dr thank you

Dr.k was overworked, and was incredibly late for my 2:00pm appointment. He left the room with the words" I have someone waiting for me in the next room". A teladoc visit would have been much less of a waste of MY time!

As stated before, Dr. K always takes the time to address my current needs.

UofU Patient March 17, 2022

Doctor looked at me only a couple of times, did not explain the plan to me, and did not have good bedside manor whatsoever. Jen the MA made me feel way more at ease than the doctor did

I was so happy that Dr K talked about nutrition, GMO's and other things that I am very interested in when it applies to my health.

The only issue that was not fully handled was managing the pain while seeking lab work and X-Rays. I had to see another doctor to get some pain relief and a CT scan.

I have been seeing Dr. K for many years now. I travel from Weber County to Salt Lake County in order to see him. I wouldn't travel that far if I didn't think he was good doctor. He has always been very thoughtful to patient concerns.

Dr. K has explained my condition in more detail than any other doctor I've seen. He's given me great insight which has helped me to lower my A1C from 11.1 to 6.6 in three months. He's a very smart man.
