I was treated very poorly by the Doctor and was not happy. I left the office after my first visit in tears. Didn't feel very good about the Dr. on my second visit either. I also let the Resident Dr. know I was very upset about how I was treated. But I am not happy with Dr. Kendall whatsoever.

Dr. Kendall is very helpful and always listens to my concerns. I have found him to be very thorough and he explains things in a way that helps me deal with my back and neck problems. In my opinion he goes much further than expected to make sure I have the necessary care and he is so patient with me. His expertise has been very beneficial. I would recommend him 100%! I feel fortunate to have such a knowledgeable and pleasant doctor.

I am so impressed with Dr. Kendall. He always gives me so much information that is helpful. I have never had a doctor that has been so thorough and complete in providing me with information and a treatment plan for his diagnosis. I feel very fortunate to have him as my doctor. He goes far beyond what I have ever expected from a physician. He takes the time to listen, and answers any questions I might have. He is amazing in his ability to diagnose problems, is very pleasant and treats me with respect.

I had a great experience with Dr. Kendall. He listened well, made me fell like my problem was important and he came up with some great insights into the problem. He inspired trust.

Dr Kendall did a great job explaining injection, any future injections and option of surgery to me.

Dr Kendall appears to be ernestly trying to solve my problem. Medications not working but not his fault.
UofU Patient
October 03, 2016
On my first visit Dr. Kendall told me I have a condition called Klipple Fiel which of course I went home and googled. I was horrified by what i read and just couldn't believe it but thought if that gave me an answer to my headaches maybe it was true. On my second visit he said nothing about that but told me something different, when I asked him about it he said, no you don't have that. I wish he wouldn't have thrown that diagnosis out at me so casually on my first visit. To a patient diagnoses doctors give are taken seriously, at least by me, and it really scared me. Other than that Dr. Kendall is wonderful. I really like him. I did NOT like the PA who was working with him! She was abrupt, sharp and not gentle at all with my neck which is extremely sore. I won't let her touch me again. She has zero bedside manner.

My next experience will be the telling on when I see if I can get relief from the procedure. I feel confident that it will help me.
UofU Patient
May 24, 2016
I think that my frustration with my appointment was that after the initial evaluation by the resident/doctor #1, Dr. Kendell came into the exam room and asked me what to do as far as a next step. I'm not the doctor and I don't know what the best solution is to my problem; I made the appointment so that the doctor can tell me what to do next. The 1st doctor that evaluated me told me that my x-ray from 3 years ago looked normal, whereas Dr. Kendell said that the x-ray showed some ware and tare. It's the inconsistent message between the doctors and them relaying on me for direction was not what I expected to get from a specialist.
UofU Patient
May 20, 2016
just didimt seem to really hear me and really understand that my pain is really bad
UofU Patient
May 18, 2016
I realized after I left that the doctor(s) had not mentioned my prescription drug and whether or not I should continue to take it. I will have to make a phone call to determine that information and ask for a refill if needed.

Dr. Kendall was outstanding. He was not rushed and took plenty of time to review my xrays and the treatment to come. This in addition to discussing which PT clinic to attend. I'd highly recommend Dr. Kendall to others seeking treatment.

My only comment is I had an appointment with Dr Kendall and initially a Fellow came in and I basically started from scratch. she wanted to change meds. Dr Kendall came in and we got back to PT no med changes.

December 13, 2014
Dr Kendall was superb; more knowledgeable about post-polio than any doctor I've previously met with; he listened well, seemed unhurried and willing to talk as long as I had questions. His explanations were very clear; pleasant interactions. I have already recommended him to another

UofU Patient
October 17, 2014
With Doctor, Fellow, Med student all in the room with me, I wasn't always sure who was talking to whom, and what information was for me. It seemed like I was suppose to know what I wanted to have done - but I wasn't sure what the results from my MRI really meant and what options were reasonable.
UofU Patient

Dr Kendall provided the most lucid and thorough explanation of the nature and origin of my back and hip problems that I have ever received. After decades of tests and treatment, including cervical spine surgery, I finally have a clear picture of the source of my pain that will help immensely in dealing with it.

I am Dr. Kendall's patient because he is the best, I always find the best doctor to treat me. I have multiple problems and I need exceptional care. Dr. Kendall provides that.

You can't find a better doctor. Dr. Kendall is great!
UofU Patient
July 01, 2014
I would not recommend this doctor to anyone. I felt that he wasn't concerned about my condition and did not provide me with any information or reasonable solution to my situation. I thought he was condescending, curt, terrible bed-side manner. I left feeling worse than ever and even got to my car and started crying because I received no help or answers to my pain/condition. It was a waste of my time and my money. I will not come back to your clinic and I will NOT recommend you to anyone else.
UofU Patient
July 01, 2014
I really appreciate the input from both doctor and physical therapist. I think both having access to a patient's file is an excellent program.
UofU Patient
June 25, 2014
Dr Kendall is an exceptional provider and listens to every word. He takes time to comment on what he hears and his responses are genuinely aimed at your needs, never a generic response.

Dr. Richard Kendall discovered on a MRI scout scan something all other doctors that I had seen had missed. I will be eternally grateful as his concern led to a cervical MRI and a major surgical correction that could have been a significant problem for me in the future.

December 13, 2013
I was very impressed with the amount of time the doctor and a resident who was working with him spent with me. I felt they were very interested in finding the cause of my problem and were thorough in their examination and their consideration of the records and images I had brought with me.
UofU Patient
December 07, 2013
The only thing that I thought was not brought to a conclusion was medication. The care providers each asked me about medications, talked about several possibilities, but never concluded with what I should do. I also forgot to ask at the end of the appointment. I'm still not sure if they had ideas or alternatives that they thought I could try for pain management.
UofU Patient
December 06, 2013
I enjoy the fact that Dr. Kendall is usually on time with his appointments, even with seeing so many patients. I also feel he addresses all of my questions and needs, and seems to understand my difficulties and hurdles in life to to my injury. Awesome doctor!

UofU Patient
August 10, 2013
I have seen several providers at this clinic. ALL have been extremely caring during my care and have great "bedside manner"! As I have other critical health issues each provider have been aware and very attentive not only for the services they are providing dealing with my orthopedic problems but, have been interested in my overall health issues.
UofU Patient
August 05, 2013
Dr Kendall called me on Thursday prior to my appt. He seemed genuinely concerned and was able to get me in on Friday. Once he got involved it seemed to help me get through the process.

Best experience I've ever had with a physician. I've had 10+ broken bones, loads of torn ligaments and hamstring tears/pulls. He was knowledgeable and confident in regards to every question I had.

I would recommend my care provider at the U of U to anyone,im excited to see them again in Southeast Utah in 3 months to see how things have progressed with my treatment.
UofU Patient
February 11, 2013
DR Kendal was awesome, he was prome, friendly and did not have an attitude like some of the other Ortho Drs. He check what meds I was on before prescribing anything me, which no other DR has ever done and knew about interactions. I would highly recommend him.
UofU Patient
February 04, 2013
After my testing was done, all I was told was the information would go to Dr. Burke. So I really don't know if I'm going to hear from him or what???

October 22, 2012

UofU Patient
October 16, 2012
I have some background in medical terminology. It is good that they did not talk to me as if I was totally ignorant of things. I understand that the med-speak may need to be simplified for many but I also appreciate it when it is not presented that way to me.
UofU Patient
October 08, 2012
the care that is provided me is the best.... I have referred Dr Kendall to friends and family
UofU Patient
October 01, 2012
It was obvious Dr. Kendall was very well prepared to meet with me concerning my complicated problem with existing polio issues and now chemotherapy. I sincerely appreciate all the good information he gave me and the recommendations he made to help me manage during this time.

UofU Patient
June 15, 2012
Last time I saw Dr Kendall I was in tears about my back/neck pain and felt very hopeless. This visit I was happy and hopeful that I could live a mostly pain-free life thanks to Dr Kendall.
UofU Patient
June 05, 2012
Dr. Kendall looked at the MRI with me, showed me all the details and explained what I was looking at, and then explained about physical therapy rather than spinal injections.
UofU Patient
June 05, 2012
Was probably the most informative appointment I have ever had regarding my back. My copay is $50 and it was probably the best $50 I have spent in a long time in a dr visit. I left with a great understanding of what was going on and how to move forward. They were also very friendly and nice
UofU Patient
May 09, 2012
Dr. Kendall was caring, concerned, and gave me the attention I needed.
UofU Patient
April 21, 2012
I have recomended several people to Dr Kendall over the years. I trust Dr Kendall
UofU Patient
February 17, 2012
Dr.Kendall is a very good doctor and has seen me for a couple years. He understands where I'm coming from, but the only problem is his outlook is that I can do anything and nothing at the same time. Meaning he is very optimistic about my abilities, but very cautious about what I should be doing.
UofU Patient
February 17, 2012
I have complete confidence in all of the Doctors who have and are treating me at the Medical Center.
UofU Patient
January 14, 2012
I have been to several doctors about my pain, including another doctor there and MOST doctors just stick a needle in your hip and send you on y your way. It is very impersonal. They do not want to figure out what is actually going on. Dr kendall spent a lot of time with me discussing possible problems, problems that no one had addressed in 6 years. He has restored my faith in doctors.
UofU Patient
January 14, 2012
The physician kept looking at his watch the entire visit. We felt like we were rushed with the appointment and decisions. I don't feel like all of our questions were answered or our concerns addressed adequately. We drove over 3 hours for the appointment and can not easily return for other questions or concerns so it was important to us to get definite answers while we were there.
UofU Patient
January 11, 2012
He talked too fast. He used medical terms that most laymen would not be familar with, when I asked to explain, he talked too fast again! Frustrating!
UofU Patient
January 05, 2012
Doctor Kendall is very learned and experienced in what he does. It's great working with him.
Dr Kendall is involved in research on the impact of spinal interventions on outcomes for back and neck pain disorders, the impact of repetitive stress disorders on carpal tunnel syndrome, inter-rater reliability of electrodiagnostic testing.
