UofU Patient

Tashjian is an incredibly intelligent and experienced doctor. I could tell from even the first few minutes of conversation. He did an incredibly thorough physical exam. I was seeing him as a second opinion and was happy to see his thoroughness. He was patient with me and listened to tell him about my symptoms, worries, and health goals. Also, I am continually astounded by the skill and caliber of the ortho center's residents.

UofU Patient
May 29, 2018
I appreciate Dr. Tashjian's efforts on my behalf. He has helped me in so many ways. Ian and the rest of his staff have always been very helpful

I thought Dr. Tashjian was very great. He had obviously reviewed my situation and sized things up quickly, gave me a treatment for pain with a plan. Very informative and spent plenty of time, without seeming to rush through anything. Great doctor.!

UofU Patient
May 16, 2018
Dr T is an excellent clinician and surgeon with fabulous bedside manner. I feel fortunate to have had him as my provider.

UofU Patient
May 16, 2018
we came up with a great plan of care and the plan and the follow-up was straightforward

UofU Patient
May 07, 2018
Dr Tashjian is a great surgeon, and is very good at explaining things. He was running behind and wasnt able to spend much time with me. After my 30 minute wait he was only present with me for about five minutes.

UofU Patient
April 29, 2018
Dr. Tashjian is accomplished, professional, articulate and caring. he is most knowledgeable in his discipline and has gained my trust completely. his reputation preceded him, and he certainly lived up to it. in addition to his talent and expertise, he is approachable and friendly. I have only good things to say about him and wish I had known about him before I got my first shoulder surgery elsewhere.

UofU Patient
April 22, 2018
SUPERIOR in every regard. Simply the Best.

Outstanding

UofU Patient
April 13, 2018
He is a competent doctor but did not take sufficient time to answer my husband's and my questions. I know he is really busy but I would like him to slow down a little and answer concerns we have.

UofU Patient
March 30, 2018
Good solid visit with clear understanding of the surgery and future physical therapy needs.

UofU Patient

Dr. Tashijan will always be my doc for any shoulder problems. I have and will continue to recommend him to anyone I come in contact with that have shoulder problems.

UofU Patient
March 24, 2018
We found the doctor to be very caring and efficient. He prescribed the least invasive of possible treatment options - not involving surgery, even though he is a surgeon.

UofU Patient
March 23, 2018
Dr. R. TashJian is exceptional, excellent, caring, compassionate and respectful. He really care about his patients. Dr. T. listen to me, answer my question clarify my concerns. I won't change him for another Dr.

UofU Patient

I have already recommended several of my clients to Dr Tashjian. I wouldn't let anyone else touch my shoulder!

UofU Patient
February 26, 2018
wonderful

UofU Patient
February 24, 2018
Dr. Tashian and his resident spent an appropriate amount of time explaining my progress and future treatments. I would most definitely recommend Dr Tashian and the U for shoulder replacement and treatment.

UofU Patient
February 22, 2018
very amazing

UofU Patient
February 20, 2018
Dr. T has done a wonderful job on my very complicated shoulder joint replacement/reconstructions. He is an excellent surgeon and has impeccable clinical skills. I am fortunate to have found him.

UofU Patient
February 10, 2018
The PA for our appointment had no bedside manner. we felt rejected and dismissed of our concerns. The doctor was short and it was obvious he had too many patients to see and my concerns were interfering in his other patients .

UofU Patient
February 05, 2018
Extremely thorough with explaining the issues, recommending the best procedure and explaining possible outcomes.

UofU Patient

UofU Patient

UofU Patient
January 18, 2018
I did feel that once the Dr. got into the room extra time was spent with me trying to rectify the mishap of no one seeing me for so long.

UofU Patient
January 17, 2018
good

UofU Patient
January 15, 2018
Both the doctor and his resident were very pleasant and helpful. I felt they listened to, and addressed, my concerns.

UofU Patient
January 15, 2018
As I mentioned Dr. Tashjien was in the room trying to get the cast off as well. There wasn't enough padding under it and both he and Ian worked together to get it off. I don't think I have ever had another Dr. take a cast off or take that much time working on cast/splint anything like that. He showed that he cared and I appreciate that.

UofU Patient
January 14, 2018
I trust him, and I like that he is not "surgery-happy"!

UofU Patient
January 13, 2018
my Dr. is excellent, kind, compassionate, professional, answer and explain my questions and concerns. He is A + Dr.I wish we can have more professionals with that work ethic.

UofU Patient
January 08, 2018
Dr. Tashjian was superb. I work in the medical profession, and I have been a patient to a few surgeries so I have seen both sides of the table. he was very thorough in his exam, which inspired confidence in thinking he really wanted to solve my problem. he was a good listener, confident yet not overbearing, and he didn't seem to come with a preconceived idea that he was trying to fit in my presentation. I also like his stepwise approach. All in all, I was quite impressed with him and I hope he can fix my shoulder.

UofU Patient

Dr. Tashjian is remarkable. He doesn't make you feel rushed, and he is very happy to answer all questions. We even talked about unrelated things, such as Schiphol Airport in Amsterdam!

UofU Patient
September 07, 2017
Both Dr. Tashjians and his assistant Ian have been awesome to work with

UofU Patient
September 01, 2017
Thankful for excellent care! Like Tashjian's predictive question style, meaning he asks questions the patient may or may not think to ask. His style left me feeling confident he was drawing on his professional expertise to treat my condition specifically and individually. He seemed very transparent in his thought process as he shared his assessment, treatment plan and offered hope. Great experience.

UofU Patient
August 30, 2017
Dr. Tashjian (not being on my insurance), carefully referred me to 2 other shoulder replacement surgeons. I truly felt confident in his referral, and my experience with the new surgeon has been very positive.

UofU Patient

I visited two other ortho's previous, that said my problem was arthrititis. I have arthritis in every joint, have walked on a broken hip for 7 weeks, rode a horse with pack string with broken Tibia for several days, and broke 11 vertebrae, I'm glad I had someone think about what was going on in my shoulder...

UofU Patient

Dr. Tashjin takes the time you need when you have an appointment with him and he doesn't make you come in for unnecessary appointments. When you're healed, he tells you you're done and no need for any more appointments unless you have some sort of issue. I really appreciate how he helped me through my surgery and recovery.

Dr. Tashjian and his Team are incredibly talented, skilled and empathetic healers. My entire experience with them has been positive. Everything they told me about my procedure happened exactly how they said it would and my result is fantastic. I am so blessed to have them as the providers of the health care I am receiving.

UofU Patient
June 02, 2017
Dr. Tasjian was very good to me, he was kind, compassionate and very concerned about my condition. my treatment was A+

UofU Patient
May 29, 2017
Good experience. Researched provider on line and specifically scheduled with him based on that research. I wanted someone specifically for shoulders. He identified that I only had one small tear, whereas locally, I was told I had two, and would require surgery. I may not require surgery after all, and we'll see on follow up. Did not discuss medications - and I realized after I left that I have no idea what the medication I received in the shot was. Re instructions, was advised to continue PT. However, I'm not doing PT right now - will need to call back. Have been doing exercises with trainer. Had PT previously on L arm with success after a shot x 1-2 years ago. I was seen for this appointment for my R arm.

Give Dr. T more time . . . he needs to be able to explain the surgery and answer questions , , , this is not a simple surgery.

UofU Patient
May 17, 2017
Dr. Tashjian demonstrates a real concern for his patients.

UofU Patient

I would not hesitate to recommend Dr. Tashjean to anyone in need. He is an amazing physician because he is so thorough and so respectful.

UofU Patient

I was way impressed with Dr. Tash.... For a specialist he spent a good deal of time going over my issues and explaining it to me very well.

UofU Patient
March 08, 2017
very personable

UofU Patient
March 06, 2017
I would caution anyone I recommend that he is not usually an 'on-time' doc. However, the time he does spend the time needed with his patients to be thorough and caring. Perhaps he should only schedule 3 appts per hour instead of 4.

UofU Patient
March 06, 2017
Dr Tashjin is very thorough

UofU Patient
February 27, 2017
Warm, present, competent.

UofU Patient
February 27, 2017
Excellent

UofU Patient
February 23, 2017
Maybe they are scheduling too maybe people too close together. I have absolutely no complaints other than the wait. It seems like that is standard because the sign was a professionally made, ready to use sign saying how far behind they were

UofU Patient
February 20, 2017
I have had two complete shoulder replacement surgeries done by Dr Tashjian. I researched shoulder surgeon for four years while living in Denver and after all that I knew I wanted Dr Tashjian. My choice has been amazing from what I have seen compared to other doctors and how everyone talks about him with the up most respect.

UofU Patient
February 10, 2017
Dr. Tashjian is terrific! He treats me as if I am intelligent and answers my questions. It is such a relief to have a knowledgeable physician who also cares about my needs. He is a good guy!

UofU Patient
February 08, 2017
I would have appreciated a printed plan of treatment. I forget conversations.

UofU Patient
February 06, 2017
Dr. Tashjin is awesome. He totally went through what he repaired on my shoulder explaining things I wouldn't know otherwise. He did the same explanation to my family the day of my surgery. He told me that he'd explain things to me later as I probably wouldn't remember anyway. Very satisfied

UofU Patient
February 06, 2017
Very personable and very thorough. Went away feeling very positive.

UofU Patient

UofU Patient
November 25, 2016
After I got home, I realized that I hadn't asked how long I needed to be off work and the care provider didn't mention anything about that. I'm a person of detail so I'm not sure what questions to ask and then realized I would have liked a little more explanation to help me understand my injury. I heard 'detached' but then realized I didn't know if it was the tendon or muscle. I can use mychart to ask these questions. I really have faith in Dr. Tashjin as he was a referral from my favorite Dr. Pelt.

UofU Patient

Being 1hour behind is because he spends so much time with his patients Im told. It must be the other patients, because it certainly isnt me.

UofU Patient
October 18, 2016
I was pleasantly surprised that given the number of patients seen in this clinic and by this physician, I didn't feel rushed through the system in any way.

UofU Patient
October 07, 2016
Dr. Tashjian was patient as I asked questions. He also explained complex medical terms and procedures in a remarkably understandable manner. He was great at balancing not dumbing down material with making it understandable for an educated person not in the medical field. I very much appreciated his approach.

UofU Patient
September 11, 2016
One of the best Shoulder Doctors in the world. He really care about his patients. We are lucky to have him in Utah.

UofU Patient

Dr Tashjian is truly gifted. He saved my shoulder.I doubt that many other doctors could have preformed a tendon transferthat would have such a good outcome. I am truly greatful. I have had to wait longer than I wanted to at some appointments but its only because he cares so much about his patients.

UofU Patient
June 25, 2016
I have again made the very best choice available and had Dr. Tashjan replace my left shoulder. He did a superb job on my right shoulder. I always recommend him to others.

We have been so pleased with the care and expertise I have received at the Univ. of UT Orthopedic Center that we booked an appointment with another surgeon at the center for my husband!

Dr. Tashain gave a very direct and honest assessment of my injury and the options. I don't know if his style would resonate with all patients but, for me, it was perfect.

UofU Patient
May 06, 2016
Very good experience and I feel I was given full explanation about diagnosis and likely path of action.

UofU Patient
May 03, 2016
the doctor was awesome and so sweet!

UofU Patient
April 25, 2016
I've already shared Dr. Tashjian's name and great job with several possible patients.

UofU Patient
April 22, 2016
Resident was great and Dr. Tashjian was great. I felt comfortable with him. He answered all my questions.

UofU Patient
April 15, 2016
my doctor was extremely good

UofU Patient
April 11, 2016
I felt Dr Tashjian was put out because my problem seemed to be in my neck and not my shoulder where the pain was felt. The demeanor that Dr Tashjian spoke to me standing with his arms crossed and me sitting down made me feel inferior and that I was wasting his time. He suggested a MRI if I was a worry wort, after the x-ray was inconclusive.

UofU Patient
April 11, 2016
Dr Tashjian and his staff are awesome

UofU Patient
April 09, 2016
my husband was (and is still) in excruciating pain. we were referred to Dr. Tashjin as the very best. I brought a cd of my husbands MRI and was told that they already had it, as it was done at the U of U Hospital. I did not get the impression from the fellow or the dr that it was looked at. I got the impression that they read the radiology notes. We had previously been told by an othopaedist that we trust that my husband needed a reverse shoulder replacement. I did not think the dr gave any thought to my husbands pain or the fact that he cannot use his arm. We were told that he has a little tendinitis and a shot of cortisone will do the trick. I am very over protective of my husband. he has been through chemo for 5 years, two parathyroidectomies, 6 of the 7 discs in his neck replaced, both elbows worked on, a heart attack, EOE, severe GI problems, his gallbladder removed, and a little condition called chronic cluster headaches. He is no stranger to pain. He does not exaggerate his conditions. He down plays them. So, when I take him to the best in Utah for his shoulder, I expect that he will not be treated like a silly man with a boo boo on his tendon.

UofU Patient
April 09, 2016
I would definitely recommend this provider to people I know

UofU Patient
April 08, 2016
outstanding as always

UofU Patient
April 07, 2016
Dr. Tashijn was extremely through in explaining everything to me, I was very impressed at the amount of time he spent with me to assure that I understood my injury and the procedure to repair it. This is not common in this day and age, and it was very refreshing!

UofU Patient
April 07, 2016
This Dr. is by far the best bed side manner I have ever encountered. He would basically asked himself every question I would have & plus some that I did not think & answer them before I could ask him a question. I think this is a great way to inform or handle a patient. I have already recommended this Dr. to others.

UofU Patient
April 02, 2016
Every thing went smoothly

UofU Patient
March 29, 2016
Extremely caring and knowledgable care I received with many questions and concerns over. NOT having surgery

UofU Patient
March 28, 2016
Thank You Dr. Tashjian for making it so I can move my arms free of pain

UofU Patient
March 26, 2016
One of the best docs I've ever seen for anything!

UofU Patient
February 27, 2016
This staff rocks!!!

UofU Patient
February 26, 2016
I was trying to get in with Dr. Burk due to a personal recommendation from a friend, but he was too booked out for me. If I hadn't liked Dr. Tashjian I would have made an appt. with Dr Burk, but I now feel totally confident and happy that Dr. Tashian will be working with me to do his part to repair my shoulder.

UofU Patient
February 25, 2016
Dr T is excellent, phenomenal, and exemplary in every way!

UofU Patient
February 17, 2016
Dr. Tashjian was very thorough and explained what was wrong with my shoulder in language I could understand. Very patient provider

UofU Patient
February 12, 2016
Outstanding attention to all my questions. My previous surgeon had spent about 10 minutes with me. What a difference. With Dr. Tashjian I walked away with a clear understanding of what to expect and all my questions were addressed and discussed. Amazing service.

UofU Patient
February 08, 2016
Great experience

UofU Patient
February 06, 2016
I WOULD BE VERY LIKELY TO RECOMMEND THIS PROVIDER TO OTHERS.

UofU Patient
January 30, 2016
AWESOME!

UofU Patient
January 14, 2016
I would not hesitate to recommend Dr. Tashijan to anyone that I knew.

UofU Patient
January 14, 2016
You may have to wait a while to see Dr. Tashjian but that is only because he cares so much about his patents.

UofU Patient
January 11, 2016
first visit---care yetr to be determined

UofU Patient
December 14, 2015
Dr. Tashjian is one of the best doctors that I have had.

UofU Patient
December 12, 2015
Dr. Tashjian and his team are exemplary, excellent in every way. Except for wait times, this has been a near perfect experience. THANK YOU.

UofU Patient
November 23, 2015
Doctor took the time to explain present and future options, in a matter that I could understand.

UofU Patient
October 31, 2015
Dr. Tashjian was great, I can't say the same for the resident who was working with him that day. He seemed annoyed and disinterested, he was abrupt and made me feel like I was wasting his time.

UofU Patient
October 24, 2015
The care I received from Dr. Tashjian was EXCELLENT

UofU Patient
October 19, 2015
all concerns were answered

UofU Patient
October 09, 2015
the entire appt took 2 hours but I was very pleased with the care of the doctor.

UofU Patient
September 15, 2015
the doctor was busy that day and was rushing to try to get caught up. it sort of felt like we were just a hindrance to him that day. we had traveled 7 hours to get there and had 7 hours to get back home and he was in the room about ten minutes.

UofU Patient
September 12, 2015
My concerns were addressed, my questions answered, and I did not feel rushed.

UofU Patient
September 02, 2015
Dr. Tashjian has always been very pleasant... I appreciate the injections that he gives for my shoulder.....Works like a charm.....Dr. Tashjian also gives injection w/ ease & minimal amount of discomfort......Thank You so very much for helping me......

UofU Patient
August 31, 2015
Dr Tasjian is excellent, thorough, provides detailed explanations and allows time for questions.

UofU Patient
August 31, 2015
was not informed of the negative impact of cortisone shots on blood sugar. it spiked from about 130 to 300.

UofU Patient
August 25, 2015
Dr Tashjian is one of the best doctors I have ever been to. He is attentive, explains things well, does not appear rushed. Answers everything I ask and acts like my questions and comments are important. He is very patient and thorough. He gives you his time and listens to what you have to say. He checks you and explains everything and answers every question you have.

UofU Patient
August 14, 2015
Dr Tasjian provided an excellent review of the data regarding shoulder/rotator cuff repairs, and provided more than adequate time for my questions. His answers were thorough and detailed and left me with a complete sense of trust in his opinion.

UofU Patient
August 12, 2015
Dr Tashjian has always been straight - forward regarding all treatments and hopes for a good outcome. He explains things easily using terminology that is understandable. He is patient and caring. I would recommend him without hesitation.

UofU Patient
August 11, 2015
I appreciate the availability of Dr T. for an urgently needed second opinion. Very valued advice was so helpful for my emergency needs

UofU Patient
August 07, 2015
I live in Denver, Co. The accident that caused my shoulder treatment needed happened in Saratoga springs. I came back to Salt Lake instead of finding a doctor in Denver, because of feeling good about the treatment received in Salt Lake.

UofU Patient
August 07, 2015
I went to Dr. Tashjian thinking he would give me a referral to have someone else give me a cortisone shot in my shoulder. I was pleased that he gave me the injection in both my shoulders and I was out of his office in very good time.

UofU Patient
August 03, 2015
I COULDN'T ASK FOR A BETTER DR. THAN DR. TASHIJAN.

UofU Patient
August 03, 2015
Dr Tashjian detailed all my supposed questions without me asking any. I left very confident that he will doing an excellent surgery. Great experience and worth the wait.

UofU Patient
July 22, 2015
There's always a wait to see Dr. Tashjian, but I feel like it's worth it. He never shortchanges me on time, and I know that I will have his full attention.

UofU Patient
July 14, 2015
I have a great deal of confidence in my care provider, and I am very pleased in which he has ytaken care of me and my needs.

UofU Patient
June 24, 2015
Dr Tashjian was extremely professional as was his staff. They gave me a cortisone shot hoping it would relieve the pain in my underarm under my right shoulder. It did for just 2 days. I did a lot of work Saturday because I felt good, but Sunday the pain was unbearable again. It's very painful when I am sitting down and not moving. I have cancelled my 2nd appointment because I feel like I need to go another route to solve the problem.

UofU Patient
June 20, 2015
very good experience

UofU Patient
June 16, 2015
he is one of the best doctors I have dealt with

UofU Patient
June 11, 2015
I can't provide accurate enough words about Dr. Tashjian except to say that I feel totally blessed to have met him and that he agreed to be my doctor. I am totally confident in his ability and qualifications as a doctor to know he will give the the absolute best care he possibly can. He listened to me, answered all my questions, was more than informative and treated me as a person and not a case. I feel I am in excellent hands and just can't say enough great things overall except thank you Dr. Tashjian!

UofU Patient
June 11, 2015
Dr T did an awesome job replacing a BAD MESS!

UofU Patient
June 11, 2015
resident was wonderful as was the orthopedic surgeon

UofU Patient
June 10, 2015
Dr. Tashjian understood my desire to totally get my right shoulder strength back and not be satisfied without strengthening through physical therapy.

UofU Patient
May 23, 2015
I've already suggested Dr. Tashjian to people contemplating shoulder suregery.

UofU Patient
May 19, 2015
His care, skill, and concern were extraordinary

UofU Patient
May 13, 2015
I WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND DR. TASHIJAN TO EVERYONE HE IS AN WONDERFUL CARING DOCTOR, AND WANTS TO TO DO WHAT IS BEST FOR EACH PATIENT.

UofU Patient
May 04, 2015
I talk about Dr. Tashjean all the time with friends who might have to get the same surgery

UofU Patient
April 25, 2015
Very good

UofU Patient
April 25, 2015
DR. TASHIJHAN IS A VERY THROUGHAL CONSIDERATE DOCTOR, AND I HAVE ALOT OF TRUST AND FAITH IN HIM DOING AND TAKING CARE OF ME.

UofU Patient
April 20, 2015
No hesitations about recommending Dr. Tashjian to others. Even though provider was delayed 60 minutes I never felt that our visit was rushed or hurried. I wish I would have known/and know ahead of time what pain to expect as post-surgical time increases and use increases since right shoulder total replacement.

UofU Patient
April 18, 2015
Love him! He knows his stuff for the most part and if he doesn't know, he does the needed research to know what needs to be done since I have a rare disease

UofU Patient
April 07, 2015
After the exam Dr Tashjian was very straight forward about the possibility my shoulder injury being permanent and what may have been the correlation with a previous neck injury. The Doctor explained my current and future options in terms I could understand.

UofU Patient
April 07, 2015
Dr Tashjian was very helpful in getting a surgery date ASAP and making me feel good about the proceedure he would be doing. I feel very confident he will do the very best possible for me and for anyone I recommend him to

UofU Patient
March 23, 2015
Dr. Tashjian is very patient in explaining everything in terms I can understand. In-office exercises for my shoulder replacement have made recovery and use of my shoulder again very smooth.

UofU Patient
March 21, 2015
Dr. Tashian rocks!

UofU Patient
March 17, 2015
The provider really didn't have anything of value to tell me at this visit. He had the assistant book me another appointment, which I feel is a waste of my time at this point.

UofU Patient
March 16, 2015
I would have spent a little more time with Dr. T. if I hadn't been running so late already. I have additional questions I would have asked but there was no longer time for more than a quick review.

UofU Patient
March 14, 2015
Dr. Tashijan is the best

UofU Patient
March 14, 2015
very concerned and answered all questions

UofU Patient
March 08, 2015
Very thorough and thoughtful explanation of care plan. I have the utmost confidence in Dr. Tashjian's medical decision making abilities.

UofU Patient
March 03, 2015
I don't mind waiting for Dr. T bc I know he will spend enough time with me to answer all questions and explain everything fully. He probably runs late bc he does that with all his patients.

UofU Patient
March 02, 2015
It seemed like I was a bother for him to look see me that day. Very little eye contact and a lot of long, deep sighs. Once we decided what to do (which we should have done the first appointment), it appeared as though he was late to another appointment and got things done quickly and got out of there.

UofU Patient
February 24, 2015
(As expected & why I chose Dr. T), OUTSTANDING in every regard.

UofU Patient
February 23, 2015
Wish medications were discussed as I'm not too crazy about staying on ASA.

UofU Patient
February 19, 2015
Had to ask the Dr. to explain some of his explanation in my language not his. Some was over my head.

UofU Patient
February 09, 2015
I (heart) Dr. Tashjian < 3

UofU Patient
February 09, 2015
I was very pleased at the doctor's concern and reassured by his explanation of the extent of my injury and satisfaction at the progress I have made thus far to regain strength.

UofU Patient
January 28, 2015
I am quite satisfied with my care and follow-up.

UofU Patient
January 26, 2015
Patients should be given written material about the procedures they are committing to, what to expect pre and post surgery, etc. Dr. T explained everything well, but once the word "surgery" is uttered, it's hard to concentrate on the details and remember even a fraction of what is said. This is big, life-altering news for a patient! Barring any written hospital info, I just went home and googled everything. It would have been way better to get accurate written info straight from the doc or hospital.

UofU Patient
January 26, 2015
good

UofU Patient
January 24, 2015
wonderful, caring doctor and staff

UofU Patient
January 14, 2015
I LOVE Dr. Tasjian and feel he is probably the best shoulder surgeon in the state. However, the facility (both exam and surgical) are not up to the level of experience I would feel comfortable recommending to others.

UofU Patient
January 08, 2015
Extremely happy with the care I have received at the University Ortho Center. I have complete trust in Dr. Tashian.

UofU Patient
January 03, 2015
Dr. Tashjian is very easy to talk to... I told him the best thing he advised was "not to overdo it." He must have percieved I was eager to heal and get on with my life, but I trusted him and was careful and patient and my rotator cuff surgery was a real big success. Thank you Dr. Tashjian for your sensitivity!

UofU Patient
January 03, 2015
Dr. Tashjan is just great! I intend to have him replace my other shoulder later in 2015. I DO recommend him to people I encounter with shoulder problems.

UofU Patient
January 02, 2015
The Doctor is excellent!

UofU Patient
December 21, 2014
My experience getting my shoulder replaced has been phenominal! Little or no pain throughout the entire six weeks including right after surgery, and my arm is already feeling like new. I plan on having my other shoulder and both knees replaced at your hospital as soon as possible. Dr. Tashian and your staff are wonderful!!! It has definitely been worth driving all the way from Pleasant Grove to your hospital.

UofU Patient
December 21, 2014
Dr. T spent an extraordinary amount of time with my wife and myself discussing the upcoming surgery and options.

UofU Patient
December 19, 2014
I have already recommended Dr. Tashjan to others. I intend to have him replace my other shoulder in 2015. I would NOT consider changing physicians.

UofU Patient
December 17, 2014
I would recommend your facility and the doctor who provided the surgery to anyone. It was the best situation I could have asked for.

UofU Patient
December 15, 2014
Everything went very well.

UofU Patient
December 15, 2014
Dr. Tashjian answered all of my questions and concerns kindly.

UofU Patient
December 12, 2014
He was superb -- as always. I have already recommended him to others.

UofU Patient
December 06, 2014
outstanding as usual

UofU Patient
December 05, 2014
Dr. Tashjian is very understanding and I appreciate his thoroughness. I feel very confident in him to make me feel better.

UofU Patient
November 24, 2014
he is abobsuility great!

UofU Patient
November 23, 2014
I had an outstanding experience as far as my shoulder replacement was concerned. Everything went perfectly. I will definitely be back again for further surgery on other joints.

UofU Patient
November 11, 2014
Dr. Tashjian answers all my questions and never seems to be in a rush to move on to the next patient. I always feel completely satisfied after my appointment. There are no unanswered question, doubts, or confusion.

UofU Patient
November 10, 2014
Dr. Tashijian is the best; he described in great detail the procedure, outcome, challenges and my recovery. I felt like he really cares about me as an individual patient and even though he has many, many patients, when he's with me, I'm his focus.

UofU Patient
November 09, 2014
I have already recommended him to my primary care doc for her mother's shoulder problems. I have full confidence in Dr. Tashjian and his staff. I so appreciate their concern and quick action on my behalf.

UofU Patient
November 07, 2014
good

UofU Patient
October 18, 2014
He did everything he could make me feel at ease

UofU Patient
October 17, 2014
Felt a bit rushed today. Although I was happy to hear he thought I was "healed" but a bit surprised that he said no more PT. I am tired of all the PT, but I also don't feel completely done. This hit me more after I left and went to my "last" PT session. My PT thought it was a bit soon also. But helped me with my home exercises to keep working on.

UofU Patient
October 13, 2014
Everything was great except for having to wait so long at the end of the day. I appreciated the fact I was one of the pts creating delays at the beginning, having been worked into the schedule the day of my accident, but 90 minutes was a very long delay.

UofU Patient
October 05, 2014
extraordinary clinician and individual

UofU Patient
October 04, 2014
Dr. Tashjian was awesome! I was pleasantly surprised at the amount of time he spent with me and how thoroughly he explained my options. I wish all doctors had the wonderful ethics and honesty that Dr.T. has. Thus far, I think he's what every doctor should be. Please thank him for me.

UofU Patient
September 27, 2014
I have had a very positive experience overall and feel good about my recovery

UofU Patient
September 14, 2014
Over all, it was a time well spent for me.

UofU Patient
September 12, 2014
Good coordination

UofU Patient
September 03, 2014
I was refered to a psyiatrist and was instead scheduled with an orthopedic surgeon. I am sure he was the best qualified for evaluating my shoulder but I had other nuerological questions so I was disappointed. He did refer me to two other doctors but I feel that could have been avoided.

UofU Patient
August 30, 2014
I believe I have the best outcome possible considering my problem.

UofU Patient
August 29, 2014
Dr. Tashjian took time to answer all of my questions in detail. I left fully informed.

UofU Patient
August 10, 2014
Doctor is a first rate physician and I have absolute confidence in him

UofU Patient
August 08, 2014
good

UofU Patient
August 08, 2014
EVERYONE IS SO FRIENDLY AND HELPFUL. ALWAYS SMILING

UofU Patient
August 07, 2014
Dr. Tashjian MD as well as the Resident seemed to be open minded to my approach to my condition (Complementary Methods) Thank you very much.

UofU Patient
August 06, 2014
I would refer Dr. Tashjian to a friend.

UofU Patient
August 03, 2014
Although, it was two hours before the appointment was finished, Dr. Tashijan explained extremely well and I have full confidence that I have made the best possible choice, but choosing him for my shoulder replacement surgery.

UofU Patient
July 18, 2014
I was extremely pleased with Dr. Tashijan. He was obviously well educated, caring, experienced and an expert in shoulder surgery. I especially liked the fact that he had done 150 total shoulder replacements last year. I fully intend to have him replace both of my shoulders. I was impressed with his connection with the French company that makes some of the devices he uses & especially the computer program he is using in connection with them.

UofU Patient
July 18, 2014
This was a scheduled follow-up visit 3 mos post op. No medications were involved. This was a check-up and to provide coordination with physical therapy.

UofU Patient
July 13, 2014
I have been dealing with a shoulder injury for the past right months. I just recently started seeing Dr. Tashjian. He has been wonderful. He is able to clearly explain what he believes is going on with my shoulder but still take into full consideration the amount of pain I am in and my opinions when coming up with a game plan. He is very easy to understand and empathetic. I trust his directives and know I'm in good hands.

UofU Patient
July 07, 2014
I clearly came at a busy time and the doctor was running 60 minutes late. However, I literally spent 2 minutes with the doctor in office and did, for the first time ever, that I was more an inconvenience being fit in between things

UofU Patient
June 29, 2014
I've already recommended him to others. When I meet someone in the nursing facility where I volunteer who has had him as their surgeon, I tell them how lucky they are because they've had the best.

UofU Patient
June 27, 2014
Very reassuring and accommodating to my circumstances.

UofU Patient
June 26, 2014
great doctor

UofU Patient
June 26, 2014
My appointment was not a routine follow up at 2 or 6 weeks, so we had a laugh when Dr. Tashjian double checked to see if I was there for a six week follow-up. We were actually having a special meeting to allow him to give me PT exercises for my return to Texas at 10 weeks. He quickly remembered the program of PT I had been on and gave me the script I would need as well as good advice as how to resume my swimming program. I have learned so much from both him and my physical therapist, Dave Larson, about how to manage my needs to push my recovery faster against my desire to progress at a pace appropriate to my surgery. Restraint is not a trait that is easy to acquire when you are eager to resume your normal activities, but I have learned it and am managing much more wisely than in the past, thanks to their experience.

UofU Patient
June 16, 2014
All very good. Had staples from surgery removed, given new exercises and to return in 4 weeks.

UofU Patient
June 15, 2014
I was impressed with the doctor's understanding of my problem, as well as his recommendations and advice for me to consider in the future. I was reassured by his "bedside" manner!

UofU Patient
June 09, 2014
Glad to finally have a Dr that knew what I was talking about when I described the pain

UofU Patient
June 06, 2014
Despite his heavy schedule, Dr Tasjian is always calm, friendly and professional without being stiff or formal. He inspires confidence. I am very happy with the whole surgery experience.

UofU Patient
June 01, 2014
Discussing my upcoming surgery with Dr. Tashjian gave me confidence in his knowledge and ability.

UofU Patient
May 31, 2014
Due to my spinal cord injuries, i am not a normal patient. I was very concerned the Dr. would not take into consideration the great amount of additional mobility problems that are so far beyond my control and understanding that change daily without surgery than what I am up against after shoulder surgery. However he did understand and explain and have many additional options I needed to hear, which helped me so much and gave me a better perspective regarding a better quality of life I need once I get this surgery and healing process done over with. Words cannot describe how thankful I was for his professional knowledge, concern for my future health and happiness. And understanding how this shoulder problem contributes to indescribable pain suffering weakness right along with all the other experiences that come with a c3 c4 spinal cord injury. I wish I could have another doctor like him who could see and have answers needed for the many other pains and mobility issues I am faced with on a daily basis.

UofU Patient
May 11, 2014
I am so grateful to have been assigned Dr. Tashjian as my surgeon through the emergency room! I have been totally confident in his knowledge base (great to find research contributions he has made on my particular form or shoulder replacement on-line), remarkable skills replacing my shoulder (the surgery and recovery process couldn't have gone any better!), and the evidence that truly helping people is important and a priority for him (as you would hope every doctor could sustain - assuming this was the reason for choosing this field). I don't know what more one could ask!! Thank you Dr. Tashjian!!!

UofU Patient
May 09, 2014
Excellent

UofU Patient
May 08, 2014
Dr. Tashjian always explains my care and makes certain I understand.

UofU Patient

UofU Patient
April 20, 2014
I always manage to somehow fall into terrific groups of doctors and their assistants, ones who care about me, treat me as the intelligent person i am and give me sensitive care. Well, i did it again

UofU Patient
April 20, 2014
This was a routine followup visit after surgery to remove stitches, to show me the photos from the surgery and to arrange for PT visits to begin. All went smoothly and quickly.

UofU Patient
April 19, 2014
Very good

UofU Patient
April 11, 2014
I have been impressed with the office staff, nurses, interns and, especially the doctor. I would strongly recommend that anyone with the same problems as my own to go there.

UofU Patient
April 04, 2014
Dr. Tashjian is knowledgeable and to the point. He always comes into the room fully up to date and well informed about the outcome of visits with the referral he made before. He wastes no time, is straight forward and answers questions you have in a plain and direct manner. I would highly recommend Dr. Tashjian to anybody who appreciates an intelligent, skilled and honest doctor. Don't see him if you like listening to fairy tales or being entertained. He is focused on your problem and finding a solution. Visits with him are about the quality, not quantity of time spent.

UofU Patient
March 30, 2014
Dr. Tashjian took thirty five minutes to carefully and patiently explain the procedures he was planning for my rotator cuff surgery, plus possible variations I could exercise if I chose, and the prognosis for recovery as well as the reasons for the after surgery procedures. He answered all our questions completely and thoroughly and responded very well to a couple of concerns I had from former experiences about medication and an overnight stay. He gave me great confidence and reassurance.

UofU Patient
March 24, 2014
I am very impressed with the services provided to me by my doctor, his Interns, the nurses and the staff. I've had two surgeries there this year (Sept. R shoulder and February L shoulder). In both stays at the Orthopedic Center I've been served with kindness and efficiency. I will recommend their service without any hesitation.

UofU Patient

UofU Patient

UofU Patient
February 14, 2014

UofU Patient

Dr. Tashjian has not given up on me after 1.5yrs of unsolved 'mysteries', provided me with excellent references for specialists and worked in team with them, with finally seems to lead to the bginning of finally having found the start to a solution of a complex cluster of issues

UofU Patient
February 08, 2014
The doctor and student doctor that came in before him both made me feel unimportant, that my pain and problem were insignificant and that I was wasting their time. I felt like I was dirt to them.

UofU Patient
February 03, 2014
Dr. T fixed me once before. I had no doubts about returning to him on this second injury.

UofU Patient
January 27, 2014
We have had numerous recommendations regarding Dr. Tashjian, his medical knowledge, and skills. i am happy to have him do my surgery.

UofU Patient
January 24, 2014
The Dr. is amazing. He made sure that my son understood his injuries and the choices that he had to fix them. He was very good at including my son in the conversation which really helped and at 15 made him feel like he had a choice in his treatment. This is important for a teenager.

UofU Patient
January 15, 2014
Dr. Tashjian went through the imaging with me, I appreciate that. He is exhibits compassion while still being professional and direct about my shoulder. He explains the recommended treatment. I feel that I can discuss concerns without being judged.

I had a wonderful experience with all the care providers. I was amazed at the quality of care from doctors, nurses and aides. I felt well taken care of and protected throughout my stay. I need another procedure on the other arm, and am already scheduled to have it done here.

UofU Patient
December 11, 2013
The Dr. took the time to have radiologist review my MRI in addition to himself. He also met with my first surgeon to get a better understanding of the procedure done before.

UofU Patient
December 06, 2013
I saw the health care provider for 8.5 minutes

UofU Patient
November 11, 2013
I am very pleased with the progress and his honest answers.

This is Dr. Tashjean strength, he is very professional, informs and listens and spends time with patients if necessary!

UofU Patient
November 03, 2013
Very excellent & thorough; exactly what we needed for 2nd Opinion.

UofU Patient
November 01, 2013
Dr. Robert Tashjian is a wonderful person and very dedicated to his practice. I would definitely recommend Dr. Tashjian. He is the best surgeon for shoulder and elbow surgery.

UofU Patient
October 25, 2013
Dr. Tashjain took on the care of my 17 yr. old son with severe shoulder problems in January of this year. We have seen him (Dr. Tashjain) go "above and beyond" great with his care and concern for my son and the treatment of his shoulder problems. Where some specialists we have seen for this problem were more concerned about the unique circumstances regarding my son's injury than the actual injury/current problems than they were about looking closer at the problem and finding a way to repair it. We will be forever grateful to Dr. Tashjain, thank you...

UofU Patient
September 10, 2013
Dr. Tashjian and his assts were all very easy to communicate with.

UofU Patient
September 09, 2013
Dr. Tashjian was caring and thoughtful. He answered completely all the questions I could think of and provided guidance for my ongoing care. The rest of the staff made me feel as though I was their ONLY patient.

UofU Patient

Frozen shoulder during the pec tear recovery has been tough, but I know Dr. T and his team are taking great care of me. It feels wonderful to be this confident in a care provider.

UofU Patient
September 02, 2013
The doctor was very aware and considerate of my concerns and needs. He explained thinigs to me and put my mind at ease about procedure of injections to be done. I honestly have never been unhappy with any of my doctors who are part of the University Health Care groups. I feel confident that all of them are compentant and caring professionals.

UofU Patient
September 02, 2013
He has improved my arm use from very poor to excellent!! I am very satisfied with the results of the surgery!! I will sing praises the rest of my life.

UofU Patient
August 07, 2013
Both the medical student and doctor were very thorough and clear to understand! They also listened, listening is an amazing thing, there was gret mutual respect!

UofU Patient
July 22, 2013
Dr. Tashjian and his staff were awesome. On my first exam with him, he spent more time to find out what was wrong and set a plan of action than my previous Dr. spent with me over a 6 mos. period of time.

UofU Patient
July 22, 2013
Dr. Tashjian answered all my questions and never seems to be in a rush to move on to the next patient. I have complete trust in Dr. Tashjian's evaluation and plan for treatment. We have fun talking about my life, and had a few laughs. I enjoyed that.

UofU Patient
July 22, 2013
Dr. Tashjian is great, he takes the time to answer my questions and get's me excited about making more progress as this slow healing process moves forward.

UofU Patient
July 15, 2013
Like the Dr and think he is an awesome clinician, but really dislike the huge wait times. even when I schedule 1 appt of the day. Was there for 1 hour 15 min to see him for 10 min. This has been an ongoing issue for the past year every time I see him. Maybe different scheduling practices need to be examined.

UofU Patient
July 15, 2013
Maybe instructions could be written down since they are hard to remember like recovery time and what you should do and expect.

UofU Patient
July 09, 2013
It's refreshing that everyone makes sure you understand everything, if not they are more than willing to take the time to explain.

UofU Patient
June 24, 2013
terrific md...staff...and organization

UofU Patient
June 16, 2013
Dr. Tashjian has been excellent overall. He hasn't operated yet, but will in the next two weeks. He's always been friendly and thorough with explaining his plans and intentions. Sometimes his vocabulary is too technical, but if asked, he's always clarified using terms I understand.

UofU Patient
June 10, 2013
Dr. Tashjian is the best!

UofU Patient
June 10, 2013
It is always a pleasure seeing Dr. Tashjian.

UofU Patient
June 10, 2013
I had a list of questions & he made sure we covered them all.

UofU Patient
June 04, 2013
Dr Tashjian exceeded all of my expectations, I feel very lucky to have found him in such a short period of time for such an unusual injury. Dr Tashjian made me feel very confident in his ability to handle my pec tear and while I am only 2 weeks out of surgery I am feeling pretty good, and feel like I am in great hands. Wonderful doctor that I completely trust, not something I say everyday.

UofU Patient
May 25, 2013

Dr. Tashjian was great to work with and took the time necessary to explain my options and post-operative care. He also did a wonderful job on repairing my tendon. Thanks so much!

UofU Patient
April 29, 2013
With 3 doctors in the room it was difficult to have my opinion heard. I wanted a more aggressive diagnosis since I have already seen several doctors for my medical issue.

UofU Patient
April 05, 2013
Dr. Tashjian is the best, he performed both off my elbow surgeries. He explained the procedures in a way that made me feel relaxed and confident that things would go well.

UofU Patient
April 01, 2013
Dr. Tashjian is the best! While the wait times are long, Dr. Tashjian is worth it.

Given a choice I will not return to this clinic

UofU Patient
March 04, 2013
The doctor has a good "bed-side manner" and a kind demeaner.

UofU Patient
February 25, 2013
I had no problems with the health services and care of the providers. It was the appointment process and communications where I experienced the problems

UofU Patient
February 18, 2013
I was very impressed with his confidence and experience, even with such a rare issue as mine

UofU Patient
February 18, 2013
No need to say more.

UofU Patient
February 18, 2013
Even though appointments were behind schedule the Dr didn't try to rush thru the visit, he took time to make sure all our questions and concerns were answered.

UofU Patient
January 21, 2013
Impressed with the doctor's willingness to answer any questions or concerns I had, as well as his assistant's time in assessing my shoulder concern.

UofU Patient
January 08, 2013
I have already recommended Dr. Tashjian to others...

UofU Patient

Dr. Tashjian & his staff, are the first, in all my health care - to be so "patient friendly" ..everything matters to them

UofU Patient
October 01, 2012
My dad is a nurse so I bring him with me so that I can understand what my surgeon is telling me. He gets pretty technical at times but I don't mind because he provided excellent care.

UofU Patient
September 24, 2012
Felt very confident getting best of care..

UofU Patient

stellar, I am one of the lucky ones.

UofU Patient
May 02, 2012
Dr. Tashjan made me feel I was in good hands and talked about my previous treatment and what to expect with this additional treatment and in the future

UofU Patient
May 02, 2012
Trying to understand what I can do and cannot do after surgery was a bit confusing as it was given so quickly. I know the doctor will go over it again, but printed out instructions that I can read would be nice.

UofU Patient
April 27, 2012
i already have recommendedDr. Tashjian to 2 others

UofU Patient

UofU Patient

Good Job.

UofU Patient
March 09, 2012
Dr. Tashjian was very good.

UofU Patient
March 02, 2012
I've appreciated that Dr. Tashjian very much has included me in decisions along the way and over the course of 4(?) appointments has taken plenty of time to discuss my situation and various options. I feel very comfortable proceeding with surgery with him because he has been very thoughtful about the decision to do surgery and encouraged me to do the same.

UofU Patient
March 02, 2012
My care provider was everything that I wanted and needed, my experience was beyond excellent it was exceptional. This is what health care should be.

UofU Patient
February 22, 2012
This is the 3rd or 4th one of these I've received in the past few months. It is becoming annoying and redundant. I continue to have the highest regard for Dr. Tashjian and his staff - that will not change. Should you want specific replies and more redundancy to your questions, please refer to my past completed surveys

UofU Patient
February 17, 2012
After waiting so long I felt like they were making up for being so far behind, and they rushed me through my exam and appointment, a bit.

UofU Patient
February 17, 2012
top draw in all regards

UofU Patient
January 20, 2012
I have a high regard for Dr. Tashjian as he always take great care to listen and respond appropriately. He takes the time to fully explain the issues and questions I have.
