UofU Patient September 27, 2014
I now live in New Mexico, but choose to return to Utah because I had such good care there. I can't speak highly enough of Dr. Shrieve!
UofU Patient August 27, 2014Dr. Shrieve and his assistant were very accommodating. I liked that they answered all of my concerns.
UofU Patient June 15, 2014He was very thorough and informative. I knew what to expect.
UofU Patient June 08, 2014I have never had a doctor spend all the time I needed to share my concerns. Both Dr. Jensen, and Dr. Shrieve spent a very long time with me and my family. I so appreciated this.
UofU Patient March 21, 2014Dr. Jensen was very personable as well as proessional. Dr. Sherrif (sp?) was very knowledgable and explained the processes very clearly so even someone like myself without his expertise could get an idea of what the treatment proposed entailed.
UofU Patient February 11, 2014We like Dr Randy Jensen a lot, but we did not see him very much that day, except for the first hour.
UofU Patient January 31, 2014We were extremely impressed with Dr Shrieve. He was very patient and thorough when answering all of our questions. He spent quite a bit of time with us and that meant a lot.
UofU Patient January 29, 2014I was there for a consultation of spine MRI an they had no clue they were looking at my MRI of brain which was last week. I had to tell them why I was there. then he quickly looked at MRI of spine for 2 min which did not make me feel comfortable an said he would coordinate with my oncologist.
UofU Patient September 09, 2013This was a routine follow-up, so I knew what to expect.
UofU Patient June 17, 2013We really appreciated the attention and clear explanations given. We came away feeling very confident in the physician and other staff and very positive about treatment plans.
