all nurses, assistants and techs are incredibly professional and friendly. Dr. Larochelle is has wonderful bedside manner, knowledge about my condition, and communication to me and my family about my condition and its treatments. I have only seen Dr. Vitale about ten minutes total throughout the 3 times I have come to the Moran Center, but each time he has been very short and condescending, to the point where I do not want to ask any medial questions.

UofU Patient
March 13, 2017
Dr. Vitale is a real professional. he is the kind of doctor you wish all other physicians were like. he listens, answers your questions, and informs you of what is going on with your condition and what symptoms to be aware of. Even though the news is not always the best you have confidence that Dr. Vitale is doing what needs to be done.

UofU Patient

Dr. Vitale is the quintessential professional. He is a delight to work with.

UofU Patient
February 10, 2017
Dr Vitale and his staff are some of the most friendly, courteous and patient staff I've been in contact with. Dr Vitale always takes the time to explain everything so that you fully understand and he answer any and all questions you might have. I've been seeing Dr Vitale for around 10 years now and wouldn't want to see another doctor for my condition. He's great at what he does and he really cares for his patients.

it is a privilege to be a patient of Dr. Vitale. I believe he is genuinely concerned about me. he is kind, patient, and the Intermountain West is very fortunate to have someone of his caliber here in Utah.

UofU Patient

Dr. Vitale is simply one of the best doctors we've seen, period. He is engaged, informative and takes great care in his decisions. He is an exemplary physician and this carries over to his staff that meet his high standards.

It was obvious that they were seeing more to the exam than they wanted to discuss. The only information they cared to share with me was regarding inflammation. I presume because that was why I referred there. However medical students were brought in to see a "vein" without explaining to me the significance of it. This gives cause for worry along with a referral to see another colleague without a reason why to see him either. I am very sure that I am not selected as the favorite patient of the month to meet the favorite colleague. As a person that needs to know their "total health", being examined by kind and professional people that selected to share with me the "you can know what I choose to tell you" information is difficult for me. As much as I liked working with them and thought they were knowledgeable, I left feeling half informed. Simply because they only wanted to inform me of their "specialty area". The 2nd visit was much better than the 1st visit to this office in every way. A huge THANK YOU for that.

UofU Patient
September 26, 2016
I appreciate the time and care the staff and Doctor showed me while I was there.

UofU Patient

Dr. Vitale is a very kind Doctor. he explains what is going on in my eyes. he takes the appropriate amount of time with me.

UofU Patient
September 02, 2016
The doctor provided an explanation for a question...but it was mostly in technical terms. But that's okay, he can't necessarily take the time to explain everything to everybody.

UofU Patient
July 26, 2016
It's 7 months now that I have been seeing Dr. Vitale. I have NO doubt that he is an excellent physician, and I absolutely believe that he is trying to help me. However, after 7 month's time, I still feel like I am talking to a stranger when he comes into the room. He runs in says "Hi, how are ya?" and immediately sticks his head into the computer. For a person with anxiety, such as myself, it would help a lot if he actually treated me like a person and not just a patient. That would help me calm down a lot when I am there. As I said, I have NO DOUBT that he is an excellent physician, and I fully believe that he is trying to help me, but our personalities are such that if I had another choice, I would most likely see someone else. To be fair, it was an extremely busy clinic this day, but after 7 months we are still only civil to each other and not friendly at all? Not good, not good. Also, it was late enough in the day when I left that I got no instructions about how long to take my antibiotic eye drop after my injection, and the clinic had to call me the next day to schedule my next appointment.

UofU Patient
July 23, 2016
He was VERY courteous, thorough, and considerate. However the lights invoked a severe migraine which he didn't pick up on. I was soon beyond any reasonable state of thinking capacity that I feel diminished in the overall purpose of the visit. I still don't feel I have any explanation to work with, or future plan. Basically I am just continuing the same medicinal treatment I have for the last several months.

UofU Patient
July 20, 2016
Dr. Vitale is always great, however I can tell when he is busy and has other patients/things on his mind. I often delay asking him questions because of a rushed feeling, but if I call with questions they always get answered, sometimes by him personally which I appreciate greatly.

UofU Patient

UofU Patient
July 05, 2016
After Dr. V. finished his exam he said all looks good, reduce meds, and that was about all. I would like more details. For example; show me on the scans what looks better and why, what happened to all the floaters in my right eye? Where did they go? Will they come back?

UofU Patient
May 04, 2016
I am so happy I am being care for by this very professional Staff and Dr. I am not so frightened about my future Vision problems. Very grateful to them.

UofU Patient
May 01, 2016
Dr. Vitali is always positive and upbeat. I am honored that he would take me for a patient!

UofU Patient
April 26, 2016
Dr. Vitale is awesome! The ONLY reason I put up with the long wait times when I visit the Moran is because I like and trust Dr. Vitale so much!

UofU Patient
April 26, 2016
Perhaps in the future we will look back at the treatment of sticking a needle in your eye as a form of medieval torture (which it is). I have found this process extremely painful and the last one bloodied the left side of my eye for a week and made my vision difficult. I am considering terminating the procedure as it is really gruesome.

UofU Patient
April 20, 2016
Dr Vitali explained everything to me and answered all my questions.

UofU Patient

UofU Patient
March 28, 2016
Dr. Vitale is kind and interested as well as being a world-class retina specialist.

UofU Patient
March 20, 2016
Dr. Vitale is great. The frustrating part was trying to be seen sooner than the appointment I had already scheduled. I get that Dr. Vitale's clinic is very busy and I'm not his only patient, but changing my appointment 3 times in 2 days seemed a bit excessive.

UofU Patient
March 18, 2016
The doctor was impatient and talked down to us. There were issues with the computer program, medications and tests were not ported over from the VA's hospital records correctly. Dr. Vitali was going to have our patient rerun all the lengthy tests that were done just less than 30 days ago. He wouldn't listen to us. He kept talking over us and even snapped at us when we told him what another doctor told us what to do. Luckily the VA's medical records ported over and he ran out to us to change all of his directions on what to do. I'm sure Dr. Vitali is very talented and full of knowledge. However his bedside manner is extremely vital to both the patient as well as the patients family that comes along. All that knowledge gets downgraded and ridiculed when the Doctor is obtuse towards his patients. Please remind him that we are people, not just numbers.

UofU Patient
March 13, 2016
Have already recommended Dr. Vitale and Moran to several friends

UofU Patient
February 27, 2016
18 months ago Dr. Gibbons had prescribed me glasses with the left eye perscription plano, but giving no explanation for this; nor did his receptionist,when I queried her about this anomaly. A month ago I went for a new perscription; Dr. Gibbons tried, but finally explained that nothing he tried wold help improve my eyesight in the left eye, so he referred me to consultation and a possible steroid shot with Dr. Vitale. Dr. Gibbons spoke a little about the possible causes, but he did not really mention or speculate about possible consequences or possible later improvemente, worsening, etc. Dr. Vitale explaied clearly that I would have shots that day in both eyes (why also in he right eye?), another pair of shots in one month, and further evaluation in two months. I tried to ask about my eyesight; i.e., could i get new glasses and 'be ok' by the tie I will travel to Germany in late May? I didn't articulate this query very well, because Dr. Vitale responded that the APPOINTMENTS would be finished before my trip; however, he didn't say or speculate much about whether my condition should affect my plans or not.

UofU Patient
February 22, 2016
I recommend the Moran Eye Center to everyone, especially my doctors: Dr. Vitale and Dr. Zabriskie

UofU Patient
February 20, 2016
Excellent retina specialist

UofU Patient
February 08, 2016
Dr. Vitale is a very sympathetic man and seems to cares deeply about his patients. He explains everything to you in a way you can understand and in the case where you do not, he will re-explain it in a different way so that you do understand. He takes the time to answer all of your questions and you never feel like you are being rushed out or brushed off.

UofU Patient
February 05, 2016
I have complete confidence in Dr. Vitale.

UofU Patient
January 31, 2016
I was upset about a condition unrelated to my primary problem that I was being seen for, but Dr. Vitale was very helpful in explaining it and setting up photography and ultrasound to allay my fears over the secondary problem.

UofU Patient
January 19, 2016
Dr.Vitale is AMAZING. He always takes such great care of me and explains everything that needs to be done or that is happening.

Still no clear answers on what is going on, but they also don't know what it is.

UofU Patient
November 24, 2015
Dr Vitale demonstrates an extreme amount of concern, spends more time than your typical physician, and seems to sincerely care about me as a patient. He is an anachronism, and refreshing presence, in today's, "run them through as fast as you can", practice of medicine.

UofU Patient
November 06, 2015
Dr. Vitale is awesome

UofU Patient
October 30, 2015
Dr. Vitale is awesome! Absolutely the best! If he wasn't I would have found a new doctor with the amount of wait time I typically have when I come for an appointment. He cares about me as a person not just a patient/paycheck.

UofU Patient
August 31, 2015
The staff in general seemed to be stressed and perhaps disorganized

UofU Patient

Dr Vitale and his staff always take time to deal with any questions I might have. They tailor things to my needs and care about my comfort and input.

Dr. Vitale is outstanding in every way. I met another of his patients this week who agreed that he is amazing

UofU Patient
June 23, 2015
Dr. Vitale is someone I am truly grateful to have in my life. He is very skilled and I have no doubt that I owe my eyesight to his skilled care. That alone is enough to recommend him highly but that is only part of how he cares for me. He involves me in every decision about my care. He shares his thoughts, weighs the pros and cons all while taking into consideration not only my eyesight but my overall quality of life. Dr. Vitale has comforted me as I have shed many a tear over my diagnosis and all the frustrations that have accompanied it. I truly believe he has my best interest at heart and I trust him completely (something quite rare for me).

Dr. Vitale was very professional also, look at my eyes very carefully.

UofU Patient
March 05, 2015
I had hoped that Dr. Vitale would have explained things better to me when switching to my new healthcare provider since I am moving and will be seeing a different eye doctor from now on. I also wished that he had talked to me about my medicine and what dosages to follow or if he would keep filling them etc. I will have to call the office to gather all of this information. He seemed to be very hasty with getting done with me and on to the next patient.

UofU Patient
March 03, 2015
Dr. Vitale and his staff and the BEST! I owe them my eyesight and my eye. I can't say enough good about them.

UofU Patient
February 23, 2015
On my last visit, not much was said about my care or the plan going forward. I am having a series of injections in both eyes for macular degeneration. I would like to know when another test will be done to determine if these shots are helping.

UofU Patient
February 15, 2015
I HAVE ASKED ABOUT VIBTAYING LIGHT IMPULSES IN MY EIYES ON TWO OCCASIONS AND EACH TIME THEY RESPONDED WITH SAME QUESTION, DO YOU HAVE MIGRAINS HEADACHES? I EXPOAIN THAT I NORMALLY DO NOT HAVE HEADACHES AND THAT ENDS THE ISSUE. SINCE LAAAT APPT THE IMPULSES HAVE DOUBLED.

UofU Patient
February 10, 2015
I have utmost respect and appreciation for Dr. Vitale. He has taken care of my eye problems for 10 years. He knows me personally -- studies charts, and considers the best treatment.

UofU Patient
February 05, 2015
I always learn new and useful information about eyes and my disease from the medical staff. I was expecting changes to my treatment after this visit, but my doctor had information from studies that he learned since our last visit, shared the relevant information, and asked if I'd like to go with the expected changes or to adjust the plan according to the new information. Understanding the benefits of each option made it easy to decide to trust my doctor's expertise.

UofU Patient
January 26, 2015
after waiting 3 hours the doctor spends 5 minutes with me and goes through a quick exam tells me new dosage and is gone before you can even process what he said.

UofU Patient
January 23, 2015
Everyone in the clinic, and particularly Dr. Vitale, study coordinator Kim Wegener, the photo technicians (Jim, Paula and others) have been wonderful for the past years during my visits.

UofU Patient
January 20, 2015
I am thankful for the care I have received from Dr Vitale. I feel as if he has an honest concern for me. He seeks my feedback and makes me a partner in treatment decisions.

Dr. Vitale is always very professional and friendly. We chat briefly as he is busy. But it is obvious to me that he is absolutely dedicated to my eye health first and foremost!!!

UofU Patient
September 25, 2014
Dr. Vitale is kind, caring and has a great knowledge of his field of expertise. I know that I am in the best care when I go to see him, and I have trusted him with my eyesight for the last several years. Without his help, I am sure I would be blind by now. I am very thankful that he is there and that I can be one of his patients! I am also thankful that he is sharing his knowledge with young doctors, so they can also take care of people. Dr. Vitale is definitely one of my heroes!

UofU Patient

Doctors Vitale and Zabriskie are awesome.

UofU Patient

I have trusted Dr. Vitale's decisions regarding my vision for close to 10 years now, and with his dedication, compassion, and knowledge we have not only maintained my eyesight, but improve it! I am thankful for each and everyday I can see.

UofU Patient
September 21, 2014
I know my eyes are in the best care with Dr. Vitale. I am facing the reality that I may go blind (and this is terrifying), but I know that that this provider is truly concerned about my vision.

UofU Patient
September 19, 2014
The doctor giving the shot was only with me long enough to put the device to hold my eye open and give the shot itself. He did not talk to me other then to introduce himself. The nurse did not spend more time with me either but did walk me out to the front to schedule my next appointment. No one seemed concerned about whether I had any questions.

UofU Patient
September 13, 2014
excellent Staff and Dr. Vitale is the greatest

UofU Patient

I think Dr. Vitale is fabulous. He is calm and unassuming. He is kind and soft-spoken but makes me feel like he really cares about me and that I can trust him, even though I know he has tons of other patients waiting for him. He and Dr. Warner at Moran are the best doctors I have ever been to by far...and I have been to a lot!

very sharp individuals, great explanations. brought in other Dr.s for opinions. I am confident Dr. Vitale will find out what this is.....

UofU Patient
April 12, 2014
I love the EPIC system that the U is using. I would recommend that the provider speaks to the patient instead of just to the scribe in the room. It was weird that he was talking to the scribe as if I wasn't there. He was describing how "serious" my problem was to the scribe to put in the computer before telling me I had a problem! He then turned to me and said "you have very serious eye damage". I said, "I know, I just heard you tell the scribe that, and watched her type it into my chart before you told me". weird

UofU Patient

UofU Patient

I wish I was given more information about other medications besides the one that I'm on that has birth defects possible. I'm a young married women and you would think that a doctor would be worried about me being on this medicine. I always ask about other options and it is never addressed with real concern.

He noticed I was stressed and seemed caring about what I was stressed about. I appreciated that because that doesn't always happen with doctors. He read my body language to be able to tell. I don't think I was exuding stress or anything, but he picked it up. Very appreciated.

UofU Patient
November 11, 2013
Dr. Vitale is great. He is incredibly intelligent, he cares about his patients and I love his dry wit. :) He's good at discussing options and possible problems down the road. It makes me not quite as nervous because he tells me so much.

You don't have a number high enough on your scale to describe the level of confidence I have in Dr. Vatale!

Many things were told to an assistant as if I wasn't even in the room. I asked for normal speak citing I wasn't current on medical terminology involving the eyes and was completely ignored. I trust Dr. Vitale so I am just going to assume that since he didn't need to see me for a year, all the notes he made aren't about a problem I need to be concerned with now. I was instructed on what things to watch for and to return to the clinic sooner if anything changed.

There is no question that Dr. Vitale is an excellent doctor. I trust him. His bedside manner has improved and he tries in that area. However, I have been a patient of his for 6-7 years and the wait times are always deplorable.

UofU Patient
September 09, 2013
There is always a wait time when I am here.. That is just the way it has always been. We are working with someone who specializes in this disease and that takes time. I have been going to the Moran Eye Center for nearly 14 years and have always received the best care. Dr Vitale has been my doctor for at least 10 of these years. I recently just learned that I have to have eye surgery and I am getting married in 3 weeks... So bummed but feel so good to know that Dr Vitale will take care of me. Dr Vitale and everyone on his team feel more like a family and that is the kind of care I want and need. I have never been unhappy with my care and I know I am getting the best of the best. Thank you to all of you at the Moran Eye Center!! Good job!

Vitale was very good

UofU Patient
August 27, 2013
it was not clear if the doctor had looked closely at my medical history; it was clear he had not looked at the new patient intake form -- I had to repeat the same information re: med history to 3-4 different people -- all of this while my eyes are dilated and I can't see my notes -- this is A LOT to ask of a patient who has a complex medical history.

UofU Patient
August 26, 2013
There was lots of discussion between the staff about all the tests that needed to be given and how to fill out the new computer program that the "U" has just installed. I did not need to be in the room for most of it. I had to find my way to the testing areas. It is good I had a good memory as If I had forgotten I would have had to go back to ask where I was to go. It was not written down.

I have seen Dr. Vitale for the last seven years. I accredit him with saving the eyesight in my left eye. I couldn't be more pleased with his care. Also the staff who works with him are great. I have had a similar experience with Dr. Mamalis and his staff for my cataract surgery. Thank you all!

UofU Patient
June 05, 2013
Dr. Vitale is always in a rush whenever I meet with him; I wish that there was a more patient uveitis specialist that I could see.

UofU Patient
May 23, 2013
Doctor A. Vitale does not generally share understandable information with the patient/care giver, has an impatient, condescending attitude toward patient/care giver - however he is obviously an experienced expert in hius field. I guess you can't have it all, huh?

UofU Patient

We are never treated like "just another patient," but with true concern for who I am and how my problem effects me. Great care, great treatment.

UofU Patient

I would recommend others to the Moran Eye center if they needed to receive treatment and were trying to decide which hospital to go to. I have been treated so well here, and I am very appreciative. Thank you!!

UofU Patient
April 04, 2013
He was very down to earth, which was nice. He seemed a little frustrated, but that is understandable since my daughter was not cooperating at all. I felt he really knew what he was talking about, and thought of questions to ask after the fact so I will hopefully get to ask those next week!

moran is a class act and dr vitale is comprehensive in his explanation re: problem and solution. plus, he's a fabulous person

UofU Patient
March 14, 2013
I am not sure Dr. Vitale understands how important it is for me to treat a flair up of iritis immediately when it begins! He was unwilling to prescribe the medicine I need to stop it before it gets bad. If I was out of town and had to wait several days to treat a flair up, it could do serious and permanent damage to my eye. He should trust that I know what is going on and give me the medicine I need to treat it as soon as it begins!

UofU Patient
March 14, 2013
Dr/ Vitale is the best doctor for my condition and he has always treated me with kindness and in a professional way. I consider him a friend as well as my physician.

UofU Patient

Dr. Vitale and his assistants gave clear explanations of my diagnoses, and were warm and concerned about my condition.

Dr. Vitale always provides the best of care and is genuinely interested in the outcome of treatment

UofU Patient
February 14, 2013
I did feel that he was very concerned and thoroughly checked my eye for anything unusual. He explained very well what he saw and what his concerns were.

UofU Patient
February 14, 2013
Dr. Vitale is the only doctor I trust with my eyes. He has saved me from going completely blind and has always shown an incredible amount of concern for my health. He has been very informative, and is always quick to offer multiple solutions to any problem I might have. I can recommend no doctor more highly than him for anyone wishing to receive the best possible care.

I was extremely pleased with both Dr. Hobbs and Dr. Vitale - I felt confident about their decisons and comfortable that they were qualified to proceed with all procedures.

UofU Patient
December 04, 2012
Once I got to Dr. Vitale, my medical experience was good though he didn't seem to care about the long wait either. While it is his job to be in the clinic all day, it is not mine. When I told him I was upset that I had been required to spend days going to 4 different clinics and hours on the phone with insurance to make sure all the labs that he requested were drawn and tested in aa way that they would be covered, his response was "Well, you wanted an assessment didn't you?". He didn't even have the results. So, no, I had not been assessed but I had been run around town.

UofU Patient
December 03, 2012
I saw Dr. Vitale and Dr. Hobbs, his fellow. They were reassuring and thorough. They double-checked everything and I feel like they know what they are doing. Since it was Dr. Hobbs who performed my laser retinopexy procedure after an emergency room visit, I was glad he came in to discuss it with Dr. Vitale.

UofU Patient

UofU Patient
September 24, 2012
I wish he talked more and explained more of why they were performing specific tests. I was worried about my eyes and didn't feel like I understood if I should be worried or not worry much at all. I wanted reassurance or a plan of where we were headed to find out what was wrong. I think he was just very quiet and didn't talk very much to me. But I have confidence in his abilities as a doctor and think he is a good doctor and is trying to figure out what is wrong.

UofU Patient
September 17, 2012
Dr. Vitale is excellent in giving the care I need. The injection in my eye didn't hurt and I was comfortable during the procedure and after leaving the office. His staff is excellent and all try hard to give the best care.

UofU Patient
September 14, 2012
Very good experience.

UofU Patient
July 26, 2012
Total time at my appointment on that particular daywas 3 hours. Far too long to wait at any age.

UofU Patient
July 18, 2012
Dr. Vitale was fantastic to work with. He brought in other specialists to help find a diagnosis for me, thouroughly explained the injection for my eye, and spent a lot of time examining me.

UofU Patient

Our care provider was excellent! Happy, knowledgeable and very efficient!

UofU Patient

Thank you for cutting through the red tape so I could see Dr. Frech.

UofU Patient

An excellent experience, as always. I trust Dr. Vitale implicitly, and know he has my best interests and well being in mind at all times.

UofU Patient
June 27, 2012
Following an ocular tap, I was unable to see out of my left. This condition somewhat temporary and an unexpected consequence of the procedure. Dr. Vitale showed great concern about this keeping me in the clinic an extra amount of time examining me several times before releasing me, with the assurance that the condition was temporary. Dr. Vitale asked me a few days later how I was doing and I assured him by phone that I thought the post-procedure condition was clearing up and my site seemed to be returning, accept for the blind spot I went to see him regarding, of course.

UofU Patient
June 26, 2012
I feel confident in the physician's ability to treat the illness, but not the patient. He doesn't seem to recognize the impact of the cost of tests that are ordered or medications that are prescribed. He also doesn't seem to notice inconveniences patients endure.

UofU Patient
June 25, 2012
I recommend Dr Vitale to others all the time. We have so much confidence in him and his staff; "very good" isn't adequate when describing the amount of confidence we have in each person that has touched our lives while we are in his office. Each person is truely engaged with us.

UofU Patient
June 22, 2012
I think the Drs. are exceptional!

UofU Patient
June 21, 2012
everyone we met was a learning experience and so informative. Dr. Vitale explained everything and made sure we were comfortable and understood what was happening.

UofU Patient
June 20, 2012
All a very good experience except wait time after my eyes were dilated.

UofU Patient
June 20, 2012
Dr. Vitale was very busy and could only spend about 10 minutes with us.

UofU Patient
June 14, 2012
If there was a category higher than very good I would check it!

UofU Patient
June 11, 2012
Dr. Vitale is a top notch doctor, but between the scheduling, travel, and wait times, I would definately return to my doctor in Ogden if that were an option.

UofU Patient
June 10, 2012
I travel from Nevada so I can remain under the care and guidance of Dr. Vitale and the staff at Moran Eye Center. I have great confidence in their care and ability to treat my issues. I will continue to remain under their care as long as necessary.

UofU Patient
June 07, 2012
The doctor was much more empathetic this visit than ever before regarding my wife's concerns about her prescribed medicine's side effects. However, generally he has not advised us of any medicine's side effects when he prescribes them. We have to look up the information online about her medicines and then discuss it with him later. He is so busy that he never can spend enough time with us. This is a continual weakness in the Moran Eye Center's operations. If I ran my business with this poor method of work flow and lack of customer service I would have gone under long ago. I have mentioned these concerns before and the situation has actually gotten worse.

UofU Patient
June 05, 2012
I am very pleased with the care I get there, and have great confidence in Dr. Vitale.

He gave me the instruction/information print-out that went with the new medication they used and was exteremely competent in administering the shot.

UofU Patient
March 05, 2012
He explained that I would be takimg the drops in my left eye and I wondered why not in both eyes. but I didn.t ask. The doctors checked and rechecked my eyes and that was a comforting feeling.

UofU Patient

Dr. Vitale is the very best. He is obviously very competent as well as most courteous, attentive and most helpful. It was an extraordinary visit. I can't say enough about how positive it was.

UofU Patient
February 03, 2012
I was refered to another provider but not given any information, do I call them, do they know I'm coming, do they need to transfer my records, do I need to chase down my records, I guess I just google the name and see what happens?

UofU Patient
February 03, 2012
Great at treating the disease. Not so great treating the patient.

UofU Patient
January 13, 2012
I know I need some tests done, but the waiting period before my insurance will cover my pre-existing condition has just begun. The doctor is very good about letting me know I can wait to have those tests done until insurance will cover it, and that the delay will not have a harmful effect on my condition.

UofU Patient
January 09, 2012
I'm very happy in every way with the care I have received through the years with Dr. Vitale and staff.

UofU Patient
January 05, 2012
The doctor is very knowledgeable and capable. However, my questions are not answered in full, my ability to communicate my concerns are hampered by his hurried approach. I feel it is difficult to make him understand my concerns, it is much easier to tell them to the technician. Of course the technician cannot advise me. I wish he would take a few minutes to listen to me describe my personal observations with the treatment.

UofU Patient
January 05, 2012
Totally Great Experience
