Thomas J. Kottarathil, M.D.

Dr. K seems like he's really listening and involved in helping me with my healthcare needs.

Dr. K is the best and most thorough Dr. I have ever been to. He listen and has been accurate in his evaluations. I do not know what I would do if he ever left the U of U.

Dr.k is the best. My hole family sees him

I can't say his name but its Dr Kand I have in the past recommended him to other peopleis concerned about what is going on and how my care is going

My mother has a lot of confidence in Dr. Kottarathil.

He is a very caring doctor and he makes sure you understand everything before leaving. He is amazing.

very good

Excellent doctor

I am very happy with my doctor "Kattorathil" he is very thorough and I trust him very much and will and have recommended him to others.

I recommended all my family to Dr K.

I tell anybody that needs to go to a doctor because they get frustrated with others to see Dr K.

Dr. Kottarathil is extremely professional, always courteous and kind, and shows the appropriate concern for the reasons for my visit. I would highly recommend him to others!!!

Excellent

Dr. Gittarithil exceeded my expectations..top notch physician!!!!

good

Dr. K. is by far the best Primary Care Physician that I have ever had! He is patient in listening to my health concerns and I have every confidence in him to administer what he believes to be the best treatment options for me. On a scale of 1 - 10, I rate Dr. K. a 10!

Dr. K. was concerned about my issue and expressed desire to help me with it (weight management). He encouraged me with what I was currently doing and made suggestions. He worked with me to find a medication that works for me with my budget and insurance and would not have negative side effects.

Excellent.

If I don't recommend him, it would be because I like him to much to have to compete with other patients in getting in to see him.

I love Dr K I have been seeing him for quite some time now because he spends as much time as he needs with me and makes sure I understand everything he tells me and addresses all of my concerns. He is fantastic and really makes me feel as if he cares about me.

dr. was behind and in a hurray, qwik to pass me off to some other dept, or doc.

all good

Dr. Katardthil is the best doctor in the world

good

good

Outstanding physician, very professional, thorough and very caring. Would recommend him highly for any kind of medical issue.

My provider is always wonderful

Very good experience.

LOVE Dr Kottarithil!!!!

I respect the depth and breadth of his medical knowledge and expertise. He often amazes me with how much he knows and about the most esoteric of things!

Appreciate Dr. K and his assisstants.

Dr. K has been my primary care provider for a long time. This time we even came to SLC from Mesquite NV just to see him and he was able to take the information and gave information that will help clear up a problem that the Dr.s in St. George or Mesquite had been unable to figure out.

When the doctor spoke to me he did not have eye contact, seemed distant and dismissive.

Dr Kottarathil is a great doctor. Very friendly with a good sense of humor. I have been seeing him for many years and think he has saved my life.

Extremely thorough, excellent listener, true rather than feigned concern. Dr. Kottarathil diagnosed a problem due to his diligence no other health provider had pursued the symptoms.

my doctor is excellent in explaining everything i ask

I am very thankfull for Dr. Kattarathil

Dr. K has always been a joy to work with, I trust his judgment in his care of my upcoming and past problems. I know I am good hands with him and should tell him Thank you more often.

I have been coming to Dr. kottarathil since 1998, very pleased!

Doctor K is a very caring, likable guy. I really enjoy him and would recommend him to any and all.

I was very pleased with the time Dr. Kotterathil spent with me. I didn't feel pushed through. He is very thorough, I feel like he was concerned about me.

Dr. K not only dealt with my immediate problem, but reminded me of my need to have a mammogram and colonoscopy, and then followed up with a referral abs those departments called me to schedule appointments.

fine

the doctor was nice but told me nothing I didn't know. finding someone else to treat me. the clinic was dirty.

I am pleased with the care that I get.

Dr. K is very concerned about not only my physical health but my mental and spiritual health as well. I have the utmost faith in his ability to heal.

good

I love my Dr and I will recommend everyone I know to him.

I am confident that my Doctor care a lot about me and of course about other patients.

My Comments were already given during this survey. I am happy to know that you send patients these surveys to us. It truly means you REALLY do care about all patients and show respect for all patients.

Caregiver is great and I enjoy coming to see him.

Dr. K. is the physician that I have been looking for. He is most understanding and is doing for me exactly what I feel will make me a healthier and happier person. Others are good but he is best.

Very good doctor.

Dr. K. is a very understanding and patient doctor. I have great faith in him.

I gave my confidence in him a "good" b/c I've been to him this one time and we haven't built up that patient/doctor relationship. I'm sure he's good at what he does.

I love my provider care.He is such a knowladgeble Dr.

the dr needs to speak up n tell how to use medication. felt that dr did not address or hear all my concern n did not hear or not responding to all my medications.

Like how he suggests use of non-drugs to resolve issues, where appropriate.

Dr. K makes me feel like I'm his best and most important patient. I am of course.

excellent

good.

Good

good

I am fortunate to have the health care center nearby

Dr. Kotarrathil is extraordinary in his skill, his empathy, and his personability. He deserves special investiture as a member of your clinic.

Everyone was just great. They all made us feel right at home, especially the np Elisa Estrada and Nestle. They are always so friendly and caring. They make us feel "special" and seem like old friends. And Dr. Katarathyl is very kind and caring, too. Thanks to all of them.

Dr.K is like a friend.

Dr went way above and beyond to answer all my questions and did it in a manor where I could understand.

Dr K is a wonderful Dr.

This experience was very good.

i have seen this physician for years and feel very comfortable with him, he always answers my questions or concerns

Dr. K. shed a lot of light on my health situation and explained things to the letter. I walked out of the clinic knowing that someone cared about me.

Dr. K understood what was going on with my knee and knew what I needed for pain

I have recomended Dr. K. to several people over the years.

I LOVE my doctor & wouldn't want to see anyone else.

i feel that the providers are excellent

We waited a long time to see him then he didn't spend a lot of time with me. He said he couldn't see the issue I was having but would provide a brace. When the gal came in to give it to me she commented on my condition that the doctor couldn't see.

the only thing i didn't like was that the Dr told me to stop taking ibuprofen, but gave me an Rx for it instead of an alternate

Dr Kottarathil has always provided superb care to me. I can tell that he cares very very deeply for his patients.

Dr. Katarethel is my new PCP and I am very pleased with the humane,concerned way he took care of me!

Excellent by far. Dr's Kotarathil expertise and understanding of issues by asking the correcy questions have been a decisive factor in my care.Can't tjank him enough.Great

i truly feel dr.k cares about my well being

Dr Katorathill I trust him he is very thorough with my needs and good at what he does

I've seen Dr. Murnin for years. i would not want to hurt his feelings; but wouldn't mind at all switching to this doctor. my wife would prefer I do.

All good experiences

could not print out the paper i needed

Dr. K 100% percent satisfied. There was only one problem and that was with the pharmacy. Dr. K wrote me a prescription for my test strips the pharmacy sent me a letter stating that they would no longer be able to send my test strips after the end of the month. they told me they could not fill my prescription and to call Dr. K for a new prescription

I'm very happy with Dr. K.

Have difference of opinion about pneumonia shot. I maintain I don't need one; Dr. very strongly recommends because I just turned 65. He did not demand I get the shot and wrote "refused" on my chart

Dr. Kottarathil has proven to be an exceptionally attentive caregiver and particularly gifted diagnostician. My wife and I repose great confidence in him.

I went to several Doctoers before choosing Dr. Kotarrithil. He is the best. I leave feeling as though he cares.

Excellent Doctor! Would suggest to friends...He Cares and talks to you about what is going on with your body. Definitely a keeper!

I have not had any bad experiences.

I believe the doctor did not care in the slightest, he already had a preconceived thoughts

Everything went smoothly and I liked the friendlyness of the nurse that helped me recieve my pills.

I felt like I was wasting his time and talked down to. I was told over and over to stop doing something that I don't do already until I gave in.

always great experience trust MD fully, great MD knowledgeable, and he cares about his pt, never had bad experiences for last 17 years in Redwood clinic.

Even the doctor couldn't get me in to see a specialist when needed. 2 weeks seems unreasonably long time especially if a doctor requests it.

MD Kotharthil is my MD for at least 10 yrs, great doctor.

I have never seen a doctor that I have as much confidence in as this doctor.

very good

Although a knowledgable Doctor, he was not personable. I would not go back to him due to feeling like he did not care that I was sick or that I wanted to get better. He gave me my medications and sent me on my way. Like a ticket holder at a football game. He told me what was wrong right away and didn't sugarcoat anything like most other doctors do b/c they don't want to get into trouble telling you what is wrong (fearing that they may be wrong).

I really liked him and would tell others ablut him and will have no problems seeing him again.

Made me laugh more than once. Good medicine.

good

Doctor did not say what was probably wrong with me, he didn't say anything, just to get some test. He only mentioned what he didn't think it was. Had to ask him about the medicine myself

The wait to see him was way too long. The blood pressure cuff was broken. They brought in a mobile unit and had trouble getting it to work.

He was very nice//percise//exact//sweet and short

Provider gave the impression that he did not know how to diagnose my problem and it seemed that he normally does not work within the family practice area. There were several times he asked me the same question multiple times. In the end the only diagnosis he had was that it must be the flu or something.

Dr. Kottarathil, and his staff, were, as always, excellent. I would be hard-pressed to see any other doctor, other than for an annual gyn exam.

Dr. Kottarhill was amazing at explaining what he thought is wrong with me.

Very courteous, informative, did not talk down to me, and did not look at the computer all the time.

I'm very happy with this doctor. I have a comfort level I didn't have with my previous doctor.

Very thorough and wonderfull Dr!

dr Kottarathil and coleen or connie his medical assatant are excellent with me. I had reecently moved to Mn and when I returned I went right back to Dr Kottarathil and connie. they welcomed me back and i felt so comfortable and happy to be back because of them

I originally went in to get a physical done, and it was not completed. They checked me for a different concern I had mentioned to them, but after that the physical was not completed

The doctor gave me a warm and professional welcome when he first met me. He was very considerate and went to extra effort to make me feel comfortable and not embarrassed when he needed to examine a private area of my body.

I trust Dr. Kottarathil more than the specialists I see. I would rather just see him.

Informative, interested & courtious

Dr. Kottarathil is amazing -- the best doctor in the place. Connie, his nurse, is equally good. I don't remember the name of the CNA who assisted in checking me in, but she was quite nice, as well.

I checked out 4 or 5 other doctors here, before Doctor Kottarathil. He has been very kind and considerate. I like that he is thorough. He saved me a lot of pain and trouble by finding problems before they became very painful and serious. He does not keep looking at his watch, like one of the other doctors did.

The provider seemed to be more concerned about my blood pressure (which I feel was not taken accurately) than the issue I was being seen for which was my knee. No explanation was given for my pain, which I am still struggling with. No follow up was indicated to solve the issue.

Dr. K is a very professional straight forward doctor when visiting him I always feel he has my best interest in mind.

I like Dr. Katorathil and trust him greatly he is a very good doctor and I would and have recommend him to others

Dr. K is easy to talk to and listens and understands what I am attempting to explain.

I served as a medic in the army and my wife is an MSN nurse educator so the language was below what I'm used to. I understood everything but felt I was being talked down to.

very happy with the doctor and the office staff

More detail and explanation than I have ever gotten from others. Great job.

great

Dr. K is very helpful, funny, and kind.

DR. is very knowledgeable and explains everything so that we have a good understanding of the problem and possible solutions.

Dr. "K" is the BEST!!!!!!!

I've seen Dr. K a few times and this was an easier experience than previously.

made me feel relaxed, impressed by his knowledge and actually enjoyed the visit.

Dr. K has been my doctor for more than a decade. He has managed my health conditions superbly, and I have total confidence in his diagnosing and prescribing. I share my visit results with my daughter who is a physician assistant and she agrees, based on her hospital and clinical experience, that I have a good doctor.

Generally all good.

No problem with the doctor other than slow arrival time
