I have done mole map visits with Dr. Grossman for several years. Every time I return, he recognizes me (even if I let several years pass)! He is very respectful and clear in his communication with me about the main focus of the visit (i.e., detecting possible skin cancer early), but I also appreciate the brief social talk that shows that he remembers and cares. I highly recommend Dr. Grossman!

I love Dr Grossman, today was an off appointment I felt scolded and in trouble during my appointment. I think sometimes they don't realize you feel very vulnerable having to be naked have your whole body looked over and finding bad spots everytime. There is no road map to skin cancer and I feel like I am in the dark about it.
UofU Patient

Esoecially with follow up phone call about the biopsies, the doctor was very thorough in his explanation and options.
UofU Patient
December 01, 2018
I felt that the Dr blamed me for having to be somewhere based on the reasonable expectation that I be seen on time. it was also not clear to me that this appointment was a full examination. I thought it was only a follow up from carcinoma surgery so didn't expect it to take very long.

UofU Patient
September 22, 2018
I have had a dry spot on the top of my L ear since Dr. Grossman has been seeing me (12 years). He suggested a biopsy as a good preventative measure. We also discussed treating it again with flouralurasil to see what happens and agreed not to perform the removal/biopsy at this time. I appreciate being involved in decisions affecting my health and appearance.

UofU Patient
August 24, 2018
Dr. Grossman from beginning to end of the surgery , kept me informed of what he was about to do, and then let me know when the major potential pain was to occur. His pace was such that at no time was I concerned with his professional expectation of my outcome . The time and steady performance throughout the procedure was very reassuring to me the patient. And when I left the clinic, I felt no pain and my expectations of the outcome were forecast by Dr. Grossman. Within 24 hour I HAD NO SERIOUS PAIN. Now some 3 days later from the surgery, I have no pain and feel well on my way to recovery.

UofU Patient
November 21, 2017
Provider seemed rushed. Also, provider had awkward interactions with assistant as they were trying to input things into the system. Couldn't tell if the assistant was new and he was trying to help her, or if he was just being overly controlling. Either way, they kept messing up and had to keep redoing the input. My prescription that they said they sent to University Pharmacy also didn't get input, because when I went to University Pharmacy to pick it up 3 days later, it was not in their system.

UofU Patient
August 01, 2017
always a pleasure to see Dr Grossman.
UofU Patient
July 25, 2017
I felt like this appointment was especially quick, I was in and out in 15 minutes. though it seemed as though Dr. Grossman was being thorough, I left feeling like maybe I should have been examined a bit more thoroughly. Patients like myself come because we are concerned about any problems developing, and I felt like he gave me a very quick check and only focused in on the concerns I had brought to his attention. I am not a professional, nor is my hysband, so I don't feel comfortable with the responsibility of monitoring changes to be left up to us to such a degree. I understand Dr. Grossman has many patients, but maybe a bit longer than 15 minutes or less would seem a bit more appropriate to ease my worried mind.
UofU Patient
July 15, 2017
i would not want to go to any other providers then the ones I go to I have complete faith in them
UofU Patient

Dr. Grossman requested my approval for a learning Dr. to join my visit in front of this learning Dr. I was caught off guard and quite uncomfortable given that my privacy was not considered. it would have been more professionally courteous had I been asked in private. I left irritated that I chose not to follow up with my next appointment.

December 14, 2016
Dr. Grossman is an excellent physician! He explains what he is doing and why. He answers my questions fully and completely. If I push back on his recommendations (simple excision vs. Mohs surgery, for financial reasons), he does not take offense as many physicians do, and considers my request without dismissing it out of hand. I really appreciate that!

UofU Patient
November 06, 2016
seemed to have a lot of expertise, but limited bedside manner. Seemed very rushed.
UofU Patient
October 30, 2016
I know he is very busy, but Dr. Grossman always spends time with me discussing my health and life in general. I never feel like he is rushing me to get to his next patient.
UofU Patient
October 18, 2016
I had mole mapping which was highly encouraged. My experience of the mole mapping was that it was just okay. I didn't feel like I could see the images closely enough to compare my moles. I feel like the exam was not as through as it should have been.

UofU Patient
September 24, 2016
Dr. Grossman called with my biopsy results before you got this survey sent out. Now, that's service!
UofU Patient
September 20, 2016
Concern for questions and efforts to include me in decisions about my treatment was only rated as fair because I felt like just because the insurance company wouldn't pay for something meant in the doctor's mind that I would not be willing to pay out of pocket for the treatment I wanted. It was never even discussed as an option.
UofU Patient
September 12, 2016
Dr. Grossman is one of those amazing doctors who seems to really care about his patients, is knowledgeable and efficient, and communicates clearly. I was impressed that he remembered my first name (or he read it on the chart and had the respect to utilize the name I prefer, rather than the official name on the chart). He always is courteous and kind, but at the same time gets on with what he needs to do at the visit, so that you don't have to be there longer than you need to. An excellent physician!

Dr. Grossman is an excellent physician. I am happy to recommend him to others. He is approachable, not rushed, and takes time to show interest in the patient.

Dr. Grossman was very informative concerning each step of the potential procedure. This insured me that I was being treated by a very concerned physician. And after the procedure was completed the doctor informed me as exactly how I should handle my 'wounds'
UofU Patient
November 27, 2015
I didn't realize that I was coming in for a surgery. For some reason I just thought I was going to have a little bit more scooped out. So I was surprised by the extent of the surgery but glad to know that Dr. Grossman is doing everything to keep me cancer free.
UofU Patient

Introduction to a new sunscreen was greatly appreciated and so was the explanation of skin changes that are inconsequential and age-related

Dr. Grossman show genuine concern for my wellbeing.
UofU Patient

I was unclear about the "ointment" on the biopsy wound. The check out receptionist was great in clearing up my concern by checking with the MA.

Dr Grossman was very thorough and professional. I felt like he was really addressing any concerns that I had and I love that he explains why they use the photo-comparison technique. I am a shy, reserved person and I didn't feel uncomfortable at all during my exam/photo comparison. I also appreciated that he called me personally to give me my biopsy results over the phone. I'm sure he is very busy and could easily have an assistant make the phone calls. That sort of attention and care is why I have recommended him to several friends.
UofU Patient
June 16, 2015
I don't much care about friendly. I do care about competent, kind and attentive. Dr. Grossman and his nurse/MA are all those.

I love Dr. Douglas Grossman! He assured me that it was okay that I called and came in because if I have a concern about a mole/mark because that is what they are there for. I couldn't ask for a better, friendlier, more personable doctor!!
UofU Patient
May 23, 2015
I know this might look like a "very good" boilerplate, but I sincerely thought that the care provided couldn't' have been better.
UofU Patient
May 19, 2015
I always feel the exam is cursory and certain areas are routinely avoided by, even though they should be checked. I expect a total body mole check which should include areas that it might be uncomfortable for the MD to check. I never feet that my skin is checked thoroughly or carefully-only the most obvious and grossly abnormal areas would be identified given the method used.
UofU Patient

Excellent, Dr. Grossman explained every thing that he was about to do in regard to my condition. He then did exactly as he explained the procedures before enacting/applying them. And he informed me that he would contact me with the results. Excellent rapport with me and as a result I always felt totally comfortable.

I have coming down to the Huntsman for several years. I have come to like Dr.Grossman very much and I feel very confident in his expertise. I do wish when he asked a question to me he would listen before moving on to something else. Other than that, I would recommend him to anyone I know.

UofU Patient
November 20, 2014
he didn't spend a lot of time with me but I didn't expect him to. he was efficient, covered everything he needed to and got me in and out and I appreciated it.
UofU Patient
November 16, 2014
I know this was a time saving measure, but I would have preferred we talked then did the exam, rather than doing both simultaneously. Also I didn't love that I had to change into the gown BEFORE meeting him. I know there's a tight schedule but it wasn't very comfortable.
UofU Patient
November 11, 2014
Dr G is the BEST!
UofU Patient
October 06, 2014
I will always keep coming back to Dr. Grossman.
UofU Patient
September 12, 2014
I quite like Dr. Grossman. Because there was no new problems the visit was short, and there isn't too much to talk about this time, but I can't complain about "no problems" Yea. It was just a yearly check up because in the past there have been very minor issues, and the doctor has always taken care of the issues.
UofU Patient
September 10, 2014
I have to admit, I'm dealing with a paradigm shift. My previous physician, who is now retired, was very aggressive in hitting every little spot with liquid nitrogen, marking me up with red blisters all over my head, face and arms. Dr. Grossman didn't do any of that, which now having talked to others, seems like the right approach.
UofU Patient
August 29, 2014
I have been seeing Dr. Douglass Grossman for approximately 8 years. He has always described my condition clearly and has made suggestions for maintaining or improving my health.
UofU Patient
August 25, 2014
Very good information was provided by Dr. Grossman about signs of melanoma.
UofU Patient
August 18, 2014
Both as a patient and as a referring physician, I have been pleased with the care provided by the U of Utah health care system. I still feel that a summary of the care provided to patients needs to be sent to referring physicians on a more reliable basis.
UofU Patient
August 17, 2014
The Grossman is a great doctor and I have been seeing him for several years. He is caring and informative. He also listens to his patients and spends as much needed time with them until they feel they have gotten all the care they need.

UofU Patient
July 07, 2014
I have already recommended Dr. Grossman to several people. I have high confidence in him and his staff. I appreciate the card he hands out to patients with good sunblock information on it. He always uses hand sanitizer upon entering the rooms. Also I feel protected during the exam as he always tries to keep privacy intact. He is great and trusted!

Offered treatment alternatives. I should've asked for more detailed info about the optional scalp medication. Pharmacist filled in the blanks.
UofU Patient
January 27, 2014
Very intelligent and easy to talk to. He asked appropriate questions. Sometimes would ask a question then switch to another topic before getting a chance to answer. So, was much easier to answer with yes or no.

Dr. Grossman and his staff are always highly professional, concerned and competent. I am especially impressed with Dr. Grossman's availability for biopsy appointments on short notice. This is very reassuring.

Appreciated the explanations and time Dr. Grossman spent with me; he did not seem as rushed this year as last.
UofU Patient
October 28, 2013
I am telling everyone I know about the Huntsman. I live in a state where health care is very poor. Clinics and hospitals are horribly understaffed, wait times are beyond ridiculous, and staff are usually poorly educated, stretched too thin, and rude with patients. What a tremendous difference at the Huntsman. I was amazed.
UofU Patient
October 25, 2013

Rushed. Didn't get to ask all the questions I had. Good for covering all the serious concerns, though.

The nurse was willing to answer my questions afterwards, since I was not totally prepared for what happened to me. It was done very quickly and efficiently by the doctor, yet, I felt it was just done without much explanation. I would have liked some more details, but I did not feel like I could ask the doctor. He was very nice and courteous, yet seemed rushed.

UofU Patient
August 12, 2013
Dr. Grossman tried to strike up a casual conversation, but then wasn't interested in my responses. I know he's busy, but if he wants to act like he's interested in my life as a retiree, he should listen when I answer and not be pre-occupied.
UofU Patient
July 29, 2013
my initial surgery was at huntsman and this is my fourth of 6 month checks, all my experiences have been great. I love all the people at the Huntsman Center and I am thankful that this wonderfully run center is in Salt Lake City.
UofU Patient
July 23, 2013
Dr. Grossman is amazing. He is so great and understanding of his patients needs. He is very personable and a good listener. He is also very good at discussing treatment options and explaining everything he is doing. He also called me personally today with my pathology results and to make a clear plan of my treatment options. He was also very clear about wanting to see me sooner (6 month) for follow up. I think he is the best and would recommend him to anyone.

He said I would have results in a couple of days - he called me personally when he said he would. I was so relieved that I didn't have to wait until after the weekend.
UofU Patient
April 30, 2013
I have visited with Dr. Grossman every six months for 9 years and always found him to be thorough, professional and informative. We have almost become friends now. My visits with him and the staff are as comfortable as possible for the nature of the visit. My concerns are always welcome and discussions helpful. I am always invited to call at any time if I need to have something checked. I know that he would fit me into his schedule if it was needed. He is very interested in making sure we do not miss anything that leads to another surgery.
UofU Patient
April 29, 2013
Dr. Grossman not only does his exam, he is willing to help lift the patient from his wheelchair to the exam chair and back--clearly above and beyond what most doctors do. He also spends probably twice the time with him.

Dr. Grossman and Dr. Bowen are personable, thorough and always take time to explain things completely to my satisfaction. I trust their care and would not consider going anywhere else for my dermatology needs.

My only negative comment is that my exam still seems too hasty. I have a large number of moles and it takes more time to look at my whole body carefully enough.

UofU Patient
February 11, 2013
Both my daughter and I came for initial appts. I have had 2 different melanomas and my daughter was extremely anxious about the appt. The doctor quickly put her mind at ease and presented the option of body mapping to check the atypical moles. I have recommended this doctor to my other daughters who will come in for body mapping as well.

FIrst time for me to see Dr. Grossman. I appreciated the time he spent. He didn't appear to be rushed and was thorough and listened carefully to me. PA Scerpico has been seeing me every 6 months for about 2 years now. Each time i see him I am astounded by the compassion, support, detailed explanations and over all care he puts into my appointments. I feel blessed and lucky each time i visit Hunstman based on the care i get from PA Scerpics. This feeling is supported by the front desk staff at Clinic D. Also the the overall cleanliness of the facility adn beautiful finishes and good food help too!
UofU Patient
January 14, 2013
I had never been to that clinic or seen that doctor before, yet the nurse and doctor saw on my chart that it said I had been there before. That made me worry a bit that they had the wrong chart. I've never had a dermatology check before so I have nothing to compare it to, but I don't feel like I got a very thorough exam because he didn't look very well at every part of my body. I guess he saw enough though. An administrator asked if she could sit and observe the exam so she and the nurse were sitting on a small sofa in the exam room and it felt weird - like I was sitting in someone's living room while they sat there watching without assisting or commenting.
UofU Patient
