Amy P. Powell, M.D.

We have been SO impressed with Dr. Amy Powell. She explains everything in great detail, asks questions, and discusses different options, etc. with the patient and the parent. We also felt she was very thorough with the examination; more so than other physicians we have seen, and truly cares about the outcome for the patient. We have never felt rushed during an appt., and her flexible hours have been very helpful with our busy schedule. We simply cannot say enough good things about Dr. Powell and the service she has provided for us!!

all was good

she outlined my options from cortisone shot to physical therepy and let me choose which I felt like I wanted to do.

Love Dr. Powell

Dr. Powell is terrific, caring and informative.

Explained the problem in detail which was very helpful and gave me different treatment options

good

Dr. Powell is open to questions, empathetic and very skilled. She is an exceptional physician.

Just a great place to get the care ones needed!

I think Dr Powel is great. She has gread bedside manner.

Instructions for care are sometimes difficult to remember. If there was a way to note these and give a copy to paitient, it would help.

It is not that the provider was not nice, it was that I felt she did not take the time to listen to me. I have gone to this clinic twice and both time the are rust to send me to the physical therapy. Everything with them is physical therapy.

dr Powell even brought in a specialist with her, who added greatly to the success of the treatment

I was very impressed with Dr. Powell. I found her to be interested, concerned, knowledgeable, personable, responsive.

the best in town

Very detailed questions about my history and personal condition and findings.

Dr. Powell has always been very well prepared and has answered every question thoroughly. Very personable MD.

The procedure went well with no pain. Afterwards the pain was next to nothing and one week later I'm walking with no pain. Great job. Thanks for all you did.

Dr. Powell is exceptional. She is very thorough and aims to get to the root of the problem.

Dr. Amy Powell is terrific! Friendly, very competent and knowledgeable, and explains things thoroughly.

Dr. Powell is clear, concise, listens well.

Have recommended Dr. Powell often.

Although I was disappointed that there was no immediate treatment recommended, such as surgery to fix my muscle tear, I appreciated the honesty and caution about the outcome of using other treatments. The doctor spent a considerable amount of time reviewing each treatment and the risks involved. It was refreshing to talk to a doctor who doesn't rush into surgery or other treatments just to provide an instant fix for the patient, but rather is more concerned about long term effects.

I really appreciate Dr Powell.

Love Amy!

Very pleasant doctor, informative and helpful.

Complete confidence in this doctor

Dr. Powell was very helpful, I had no need that was not met.

Thank You for all your kindness !!!!!!!!!!!

I have seen Dr. Powell for other issues before and always come back to her because of how friendly and approachable she is. And she definitely knows her stuff! I have and will recommend her to people I know

Genuine concern for my problem and trying to diagnose and always gives treatment options with an evaluation of each one. Fantastic physician.

Wouldn't take past history into consideration and ignored my thoughts and feelings.

Dr. Powell was excellent.

Haven't had the procedure yet, scheduled for this week.

Dr. Powell spent plenty of time with discussing my injury and the concerns that come with it. she discussed options making sure I agreed with the assessment and direction of future care. Dr. Powell had concern over secondary a secondary injury that she made sure I was able to see another specialist, Dr. Hansen, in the same office during the same visit. This save another trip and time. Dr. Hansen was just as professional as Dr. Powell and has the same degree of confidence.

Dr. Powell is the best doctor we have ever seen. I love her. We left there with an amaxing feeling that we were actuall taken care of. She is so smart and kind. She figured out what was wrong with my boys. She talked to my boys like they are real people with real problems. I am so greatful to her.

Dr. Powell was excellent and I enjoyed the lengthy discussion she was willing to have regarding my issue.

The resident and Dr. Powell both showed a lot of concern for my problem, which I appreciated enormously.

I was impressed by Dr. Powell's knowledge of my condition and how we, together talked about treatment. I felt very good about her suggestions and how she included me with the decisions made about my condition.

I would like an email address for Dr. Powell to ask her a question I thought of after leaving.

Dr Powell is wonderful.

very pleased

Dr. Powell ordered appropriate tests and was very professional in her assessment of my osteoporosis

Dr Powell is consistently concerned about my situation, makes great suggestions for improvement and summarizes plan we are working on.

I was very impressed with the doctors, but I asked about my ankle and she said it looked fine, but there was no x-ray taken of it. Only my foot was x-ray.

Dr. Powel came highly recommended and I was not disappointed! I'll see no one else after experiencing her friendliness, concern, professionalism, expertise and knowledgel full explanations, attention to me, on and on!!

I wish that she had spent more time describing next steps if my foot does not heal as planned b/c it is still hurting, but I don't know what to watch for or what the next steps would be.

Do everything you can to keep Dr. Any Powell. She is the greatest!!!

Dr. Powell is terrific, she understands the active, athletic personality and wants to get us back out and moving around.

It was a great experience and I am looking forward to a quick recovery.

I though Dr. Powell was great. She didn't minimize my concerns. Even though it was hard to explain my problem, she didn't make me feel like it was all in my head or that there was nothing going on. Additionally, she didn't make me feel like it was just a weight-related problem. I really appreciated that.

Amy is very professional and competent-my husband and I both see her

An overall fantastic experience (considering the appointment was for broken bones).

good

I didn't get enough medical care from this provider

Dr. Powell carefully explained the results of the dexascan - and compared it to my 2 earlier scans at another location years ago (and explained that using a different machine makes it somewhat difficult to compare. However, allowing for some variance, my bone density has not changed dramatically in the last 9 years--first good news I have had in some time!

Dr Powell was very sensitive to my injury and its impact on my daily life/career. In addition to that sensitivity, she showed great awareness to the potential financial difficulty my treatment could pose. I felt very well cared for and understand my injury and the role of my treatment plan VERY well after speaking with me. She walked me through my MRI results and even drew diagrams to allow me to visualize exactly what was going on. I highly recommend her and have been singing her praises to all my friends and family.

Dr. Powell and her intern worked very well together and took excellent care of me. They both did a thorough examination and were very sensitive to the pain it caused but also the necessity of it as a diagnostic tool. Dr Powell was quick to provide information about her thoughts on my injury but was also honest about things she wasn't sure about and ordered further testing done.

Dr Powell addressed my anxiety and concerns regarding my treatment in a professional, kind and caring way. I felt much better after talking with her.

Dr. Powell and Dr. English were both very friendly and very efficient. I didn't feel that they were rushing to get on to the next patient. Dr. Powell made me feel good that I was not wasting anyone's time or resources when she recommended doing an MRI. She was very patient and kind in listening and explaining next steps in order to address my injury.

Dr. Powell seems to be very concerned about my orthopedic care and wants to make sure we are making the right decision with my care. Giving several options for my care is great to have and to give me time to think about options and return a call with decision.

Dr. Powell is GREAT to work with !!!!!!!!!!!! She really cares about me !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Conversation was clear and concise, Dr. Powell very personable and caring.

It's refreshing to see a provider who includes the patient in decisions on treatment options and who listens to the patient before making decisions (as opposed to coming in to the room with an opinion already formed so there is no reason to actually listen to the patient at all).

I was informed they were running behind. I had several concerns that needed to be addressed. I felt they were trying to "catch up" so they didn't address all of my concerns. Now I'll have to make another appointment to have the additional concerns addressed.

Dr. Powell is amazing. Such a kind and caring doctor!

I have recommended Dr. Powell to several people !

I have sent an email to Dr. Powell that has not been returned. I have found that this is a problem with the Ortho doctors

I appreciate the U of U medical staff, because, while they don't talk down to the patient, they are understanding, patient, and take time to explain clearly.

I was seen by two people. They were both professional and helpful.

Excellent doctor and intern. I would recommend this doctor readily.

Great doctor. Complete confidence in her. Good rapport. Good listener.

Dr. Powell is outstanding in explaining her findings, offering suggestions for care, and listening to my concerns. I trust her implicitly.

Dr. Powell is wonderful.

Dr. Powell is friendly and professional and has a sincere interest in helping with my medical problems. She explains everything clearly and offers good advice and suggestions. Mainly, I have confidence in what she advises me to do.

Dr. Powell seemed a bit rushed, even though I was one of her first a.m. appointments.

Dr. Powell is a great doctor. She is authentic. I have never felt rushed when seeing her.

Thank You Dr. Amy Powell for all the kindness you gave me !!!!!!

Dr. Powell is impressive. I had seen her over a year before this appointment and she remember the specifics of my previous appts and details about me that I believe may not have been part of the medical record. I appreciated her concern for me.

Amy was very helpful she listened to my questions and concerns and when I told her about my extremely upsetting experience with Shauna when I called trying to figure out where I needed to call to get help with my leg pain. Amy referred me to Dr. Cuniffe and got an appointment right away.

I would not recommend or visit this doctor again. She did not address my issue of pain and seemed rushed to get me out quickly.

Dr. Powell is a very kind and caring person. We discussed my history & prior treatments and she listened intently and asked questions, and then we made a decision about my treatment. She is fantastic and I recommend her highly.

I appreciate the variety of options presented to me, especially non-operative.

Dr. Powell was very concerned/interested in my dilemma. She listened, read the reports, took a couple of xrays to assure herself that the situation was as described and advised me how to proceed.

I like Dr. Powell very much. I have already referred her to many other people.

Excellent Dr. will come back as needed

totally impressive experience

Thank you for being such a good listener and taking time to review my records, perform an exam, and then communicate the next steps.

Dr Powell has very good bedside manner- very gracious and warm

Dr. Powell is not the only MD I have seen at this clinic. She is the only one I choose to see me. I will wait to get an appointment with her as she takes the time to ensure I am comfortable and my shots are as pain free as possible. Powell obviously cares about me as a patient.

Dr. Powell is fantastic. She is always very compassionate and understanding, and tries to get athletes back into action as soon as possible.

Dr Powell explained everything beforehand and communicated with me every step of the way, what was being done, why and what could be expected, pain, pressure, etc.

Dr. Powell is fantastic, personable and profession.

Dr. Powell and Dr. Goodman were awesome

Dr. Powell is very attentive and gave me a great sense that the appropriate diagnosis was made and what the appropriate treatment options were.

Dr. Powell gives such complete information, and always asks if I have any more questions.

I appreciate the discussion about my situation, and the fact that I was allowed to forward my opinion as a patient.

Was easy. Felt well taken care of.

Thank You for your kindness & care !!!

I came back to see Dr. Powell because of the care I received several years ago. I have had ongoing issues for 25 years, and Dr. Powell seems to really want to figure out and get to the bottom of the problem. I have every confidence in Dr. Powell.

Dr. Amy Powell was awesome with me in explanning my condition and gave me a good solution.

No medications prescribed.

I liked Dr. Powell immensely.

Dr. Powell is excellent and I fully trust her.

Exceptional as always

I feel most fortunate to be in the care of my physician in this Clinic.

It is encouraging...my daughter also understands my hip-pain situation better and has confidence in the diagnosis and treatment. Thank you for including her.

I would send my Mother to Dr. Powell.

The best! Had my ortho and friends do R shoulder and L hip, but this l shoulder is the best relief I've ever had. Makes me wish I could ask to do have the R one redone by Krim's group

outstanding, inclusive and easy going

Very good experience, even though I had a feeling that they were very busy and I should make my feelings and physical problems short and to the point. Which is not a problem with me. It may be for others

Because I am of an age where "falling apart" seems to be creeping in, I have already referred a friend to Dr. Powell for hip issues. I am confident if Dr. Powell believes a different care provider would better address this friend's problem, she would refer her to an excellent physician, not just "the next in line" which can sometimes be the case.

DR. POWELL AND DR.ENGLISH WERE GREAT THEY MADE ME FEEL COMFORTABLE AND CARED FOR AS A PATIENT. I WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND DR. POWELL AND DR.ENGLISH!

I would recommend this orthopedic center to others.

My only hesitation to recommend this care provider is wait time.

Dr. Powell was very informative about my options, and had the nurse take me right down to the therapy department to help me get an appointment. Dr. Powell seems so nice and genuinely cares about me.

Dr. Powell is a real gem.

Dr Powell had a VERY calming and reassuring manner that really was commendable

I would definately refer Dr Powell. I have come back to her several times. She seems genuine and caring.

She is excellent.

Dr. was friendly, helpful and efficient

good experiance not as good as the first one but efective

For orthopedic problems, we stay with Dr. Powell. She treats Tonia right.

seems to be a climate of thinking people are drug seekers or going to be if given pain medication.

Always a very nice and sharp physician. This visit - awkward and dissapointing for me. Physician in a bad mood? and 'short' with me for the first time.

Once again, an excellent experience. I can't imagine going anywhere else for my orthopedic needs.

This was Jacob's first visit with Dr. Powell. Now everyone in our family has utilized her expertise on at least one occasion. Obviously, we are pleased with our experience and have recommended her to several friends with sports type injuries or issues. She is consistently professional, pleasant, and takes the time to address the concern, review options and rationale, and includes us in the action plan. She mentors the exceptional patient experience. Though interns/residents participate in the visit, we feel confident she actively participates & directs the actino plan.

Dr. Amy Powell is FANTASTIC

Dr. Powell is fantastic, despite my negative experience with delays on this visit.

Fantastic. I could not have been taken care of better.

Dr. Powell was very professional and answered my questions completely. I would recommend her highly.

Very friendly and relates well with her patients. Spoke about my visit with my husband. Surprisingly she had treated him sometime in the past and also thought highly of her!

Good experience and I hope the course of action is appropriate to determine and cure the problem

Optimistic and focused on my problem

AMY and team are excellent!

See above

Dr Powell, her Physicians assistant, I forgot her name, and Monica, her medical assistant were all excellent.

This was a very positive experience.

Dr. Powell is one of the best doctors I have ever visited. She has very good listening skills and most importantly takes time to review records from other doctors and PT visits. I could not ask for a better doctor. I really appeciate her care!

Wonderful doctor.

Dr. Powell and her staff were all great. I would tell others how well I was treated under her care.

I love Dr Powell so much that I have recomended her to family and friends.

I have, and continue to refer friends and family to Dr. Powell, the most recent was my father.

Dr. Powell is very kind and compassionate. She answered my questions and asked "do you have any other questions?" at the end of the visit. She involved me in the decision about the next step in my care after presenting options.

Dr. Powell is very kind and explained everything to me.

Dr. Amy Powell is great, she is caring and understanding. A great asset to the University staff.

I look forward to working with Dr. Powell to detect the root cause of my problem. I appreciate her thoroughness and even sharing with me some of her thought processes (and informing me that she was thinking aloud). She communicated brilliantly, really seemed interested, concerned, and professional. Thank you.

Dr. Powell was incredible. I will definitely recommend her. I don't think I can say the same thing for the resident who provided care.

Dr. Powell was superb. I would highly recommend her to others.

I really appreciated Dr. Powell, and thought she gave me good advice and comments.

Dr. Amy Powell and everyone at the U are very nice and they make you feel very comfortable.

Amy Powell provides the type of care and concern that is welcome and appropriate.

very compitant health care providers all questions were answered

Didn't find out till after the care provider left the office that I was to have not only an MRI, but an MRI with contrast. Any time something is going to be put into my body, I feel there must be a discussion of why this is necessary, what the advantages and risks are, what extra information will be gained, as well as an opportunity to decline.

Dr Amy Powells bedside manner was excellent She was very respectful

Dr. Powell was great. She was very friendly and attentive.

Amy Powell was the doctor.

Very impressed with the physician. Should concern and was treated with very good care

She provided excellent care and the braces that she suggested I use help me so much to relive the pain of walking up and down stairs.

i like the group discussions of all the care provders. they discuss and come to a meeting of the minds as to what would be best for me.

I know the center is a teaching school, but I wish for the olden days when I saw only the real doctor. This is not just your office but now it's all medical offices.

I am trying once again to find solutions to a long-term chronic problem. I've given up on the medical community repeatedly. I asked the Dr. if she would commit to solving the problem. She was non-committal and even said that the tests she proposed were the 'end of the road' concerning this problem. That was NOT what I wanted to hear.

a wonderful experience - will recommend her to all my friends-- Extremely well educated and informed

Explained everyting very well and quickley. Asked for any questions and all questions were answered to my satisifaction.

Dr. Powell is great, but because of fellows and residents she only spent about 3 to 5 minutes with me and I was not able to ask all my questions. I also have to make another appointment to see her about another matter that needs to be addressed. MD should be able to address more than one issue at a time and you shouldn't have to make separate appointments for each issue.

They were very helpful and very informative.

Dr. Powell always is working to find the best care regimens.

good

I have confidence in this physician and her staff...

If my shoulder mostly or completey recovers, then the last two questions will increase to very good.

Amy Powell is a gem. I've never had someone explain something so well. The entire visit was a sheer pleasure.

Overall exam was great. The follow up instructions were a bit cloudy. I expressed my concern that i did not understand what i could / could not do but I don't feel i received a satisfactory answer. I did appreciate that she did allow me to call her directly to clarify.

Dr Powell was very helpful and informative about concussion care and made us understand what needed to be done for recovery.

She is always clear and listens well!

This visit was very much improved. I have felt very disappointed on prior visits that much questions were not answered well and not much concern was given. This visit answered all my questions and I feel much better about returning in the future.

Amy was very good at making me feel comfortable and explaining what was going on. I appreciated her time in the office with me, because I've had doctors in the past spend less time with me and it was discouraging. She did a great job.

I have already referred multiple people to Dr. Powell

Dr. Powell provided what I can honestly say was the best experience I have had with a doctor's visit. She was very personable, nice, professional, and best of all seemed honestly interested in my specific problem and was willing to take the time to make sure I had all of my questions answered. I never got the feeling she was trying to rush me out to get to the next patient even though she knew I was only there to get a second opinion on my shoulder. It was great.

Dr Amy Powell is an excellent doctor- very informative, very competent with wide range of help in all areas. Also, the REHAB center is very good and has a very good staff to help with exercises for your particular problem - have used the water therapy program as well as back and limb strength after operations or accidents. I have always had good help from that center.

I have already referred someone to Doctor Powell.

I left the appointment without an understanding of what was wrong with me but a treatment plan of getting an injection in my hip. I didn't realize it while i was talking to the doctor but afterward I was really unsure about whether I wanted to do the treatment. I didn't feel like I knew enough about it, what it was meant to do, if there were any side effects, or whether it would be the best thing for me in the circumstances I was in. I realize some of this was my failure to ask questions. Maybe there could be a resource or written material that patients could refer to later.
