By far one of the best doctors I have been to. He took a lot of time reviewing symptoms prior to meeting with me, was completely aware of my history and open to discussing causes and treatments. He was thorough in his explanations and open to all questions. He is the first doctor that asked my opinion on my health and to collaborate with him to make decisions moving forward. overall, I was incredibly impressed with concern, intelligence and professionalism.

Dr. Glasgow is the most dedicated, thoughtful, caring and wonderful human being. His level of knowledge and technical skills are remarkable and possession of emotional intelligence,including bed side manner, exemplary. A well respected and loved clinician by all took a great deal of care and concern to explain each and every detail associated with my MRI scan and skillfully explained various approaches to treatment. He should be recognized and appreciated by all hospital administrators for the incredible technical expertise but more importantly for having the biggest heart. He is a noble man that treats his patients with love and empathy and as long as he is willing to work in your institution, no other health care organization, including IHC, can even be compared to yours! Please extend my profound thanks and appreciation to him for his compassion, care for his patients, exceptional character and unmatched clinical skills.

A teaching hospital can be both good and bad. The bad part is that sometimes procedures take longer because training is taking place. In this case, it was a good thing, because Dr. Glasgow spent a lot of time with me, partly because he had a couple of medical students with him.

I'm extremely grateful that I was able to have Dr. Robert Glasgow as my Physician/Surgeon. I gained a great deal of confidence in him during our visits prior prior to his performing the surgical procedure. My post surgical visits with him concerning my special needs and in clinic procedures have been most reassuring. Dr. Glasgow is a real gentleman, genuinely caring and obviously very proficient professionally. I would certainly recommend him to any one.

I was very satisfied with Dr. Glasgow's care - he cared not just for my well being but also that of my daughter who is my caretaker. Stomach surgery is a serious surgery and the post op care is a great deal. I felt we were very well informed about it, orally and in written form. Thanks Dr. Glasgow for taking care of me and for me the beautiful incision that I now bear on my belly; it is very smooth.
UofU Patient
February 19, 2013
Dr. Glasgow is a very patient physician - he had to put up with my daughter's questions, which were not few. He explained to her and me in detailed manner the aftermath of the surgery and the care that would be needed throughout the recovery period. I knew he was an unusual physician when he visited me on a SATURDAY! Who said that bedside manners were a thing of the past? Dr. Glasgow is a living example of what a physician should be, without concern for the age, education or social status of a patient. I wam very fortunate he performed the GI surgery on me. Thank you.

Every time I have been to see Dr. Glasgow - I wait - even for quite a while. However, as soon as he enters the exam room - he treats me as if I was his most important patient.
