Dr Bokat is terrific! She explained the medical issue, the possible treatment to deal with the medical issue. She was extremely personable and informative. I feel so fortunate to be under her care.

UofU Patient

first time visit, so not much to expect in terms of knowledge of my conditions.

UofU Patient
July 17, 2018
There is no doctor that is better in treating patients professionally but kindly. Her caring manner endures her to her patients and their families. She thinks outside the box and her expertise is top notch. She is the best!

UofU Patient

Dr. Bokat & Dr. Runyan are both wonderful physicians. I appreciate their expertise and care.

UofU Patient
July 04, 2018
Dr. Bokat said there was nothing she could do for me, so I cancelled my follow-up with her. Later, I received the notes from her Physical Therapist who listed an extensive treatment therapy. at the end, it said, "Patient has not yet been informed of this plan." So, I had to reschedule the appt I cancelled. I would have appreciated knowing that Dr. Bokat has something in mind.

UofU Patient
July 01, 2018
Dr. Bokat is great, I would recommend her to anyone needing treatment for pain. She always listens and has a plan for your treatment.

UofU Patient
May 21, 2018
Dr. Bokat is the best provider I've ever seen. She's forward, clear and I believe she cares about my well being. I couldn't ask for more than that. I usually have some hesitation about seeing a resident/med student or other provider prior to seeing her. However, on this appointment I saw a Fellow, and he was very pleasant and professional.

UofU Patient
May 16, 2018
I am aware that these are high scores I am offering here, but I have thought them trough and feel they are not inflated.

Cody felt very confident in Dr Bokat and her assistant that helped also. She was very informative, caring, kind and very sympathetic to his issues and pain. He believes Dr Bokat is on the right track at getting him well and back to his normal activities.

UofU Patient
March 15, 2018
Dr. Bokat is so wonderful she makes sure I understand everything so I can make informed decisions.

UofU Patient
March 08, 2018
Dr. Bokat worked around my work schedule and allowed me to come to the pain center rather than the headache clinic for my appointment so that I didn't have to miss work. The nurse from the Headache clinic drove my medication over so that i would have it for my appointment

UofU Patient
March 03, 2018
Dr. Bokat is simply awesome. She's been my doctor for close to two years, and I trust her knowledge & expertise. She treats me not only as a patient, but as a person. She is compassionate, empathetic, and professional.

Dr Bokat is awesome!!

UofU Patient
October 23, 2017
I adore Dr. Bokat. She's so incredibly patient and understanding. She addresses all concerns, but necessarily just the single problem for which I originally starter seeing her. She allows me to participate in the decisions made instead of pressuring me to go in any certain direction. I've worked in healthcare for 14 years and have a difficult time finding physicians with her skill, experience and patience. Thank you Dr. Bokat.

UofU Patient
October 23, 2017
Christina Bokat is an excellent, thorough and informative doctor, very learned in her profession. She is also so kind and comforting.

UofU Patient
October 23, 2017
As usual. Dr. Bokat was awesome! She is always friendly, professional, caring, and compassionate. She spends just the right amount of time chatting with me, listening to my concerns/symptoms, and answering any questions I might have. She and the "fellow" (doctor in training) who treated me in the exam room took excellent care of me. I wholeheartedly trust Dr. Bokat to take excellent care of me, and to help me with any issues that might come up.

UofU Patient
October 21, 2017

UofU Patient
September 17, 2017
The Professional people at the Pain Clinic are the most knowledgeable and courteous people I have met. They are easily the best medical professionals ever.

UofU Patient
September 13, 2017
Dr. Bokat and the (?) resident that preceded her were exceptionally patient, careful, pleasant and thorough in explaining options, addressing concerns in terms we could understand. Their attentiveness and expertise was most appreciated.

UofU Patient
September 13, 2017
First experience with Dr. Bokat. Really lovely person. As a Dr. she is kind and caring and listens to your concerns. We liked her a lot. I wanted more of a scientific approach or at least to try to understand the cause of my migraines. In that I was disappointed.

UofU Patient
September 13, 2017
Dr. Bokat is one of my favorite providers! She is so funny, kind and yet very concerned about my headache issues. I always leave her office feeling more cheerful

UofU Patient
September 08, 2017
So very nice, respectful, and informative.

UofU Patient
September 04, 2017
As always, Dr. Bokat was wonderful in explaining things to me, as was Dr. Smith, the fellow. It's also great that Dr. Bokat surrounds herself with caring, professional, experienced medical assistants and nurses.

UofU Patient
September 02, 2017
my doctor went over every question, every scenario, all side effects for new medication recommended and in the end let me make the final decision, listened to my reasons and we moved forward with a great plan of action

UofU Patient
August 21, 2017
Doctor Bocat was awesome. We have had bad docs in the past and was nervous about the U's docs. But the U's docs are great and made us feel like they truly wanted to help me. We left the U of U feeling that we had come to the right place for help.

UofU Patient
August 12, 2017
Excellent

UofU Patient
August 07, 2017
As always, Dr. Bokat was awesome. She genuinely cares about me as a patient, and cares about finding treatments that will best address my headache/pain.

UofU Patient
July 31, 2017
best care of my life through life-longheadaches and I'm 70 yrs old!

UofU Patient
July 31, 2017
Dr. Bokat and her fellow, Dr. O'Dell were great at explaining everything and were honest in explaining that the procedure would be uncomfortable, but promised to manage the pain to the best of their ability. As usual, Dr. Bokat was professional, friendly, respectful, and demonstrated that she cared about my health was interested in helping to alleviate my symptoms and treat my headaches to the best of her ability. I greatly appreciate her as my medical provider.

UofU Patient
July 30, 2017
Dr. Bokat had gone above and beyond on my care. She always listens to my concerns and takes time to explain options and treatment.

UofU Patient
July 29, 2017
I was in a lot of pain at this appointment. since Dr. Bokat doesn't have the equipment to treat my migraines she contacted the headache clinic nurse for me at the end of the day and they were able to help me. Dr. Bokat showed that she saw my pain was real and helped me find a solution in an urgent situation. Thank you Dr. BoKat!

UofU Patient
July 28, 2017
I felt safe.

UofU Patient
July 25, 2017
I adore Dr. Bokat. She listens and pays attention and she involves me in my care. I could not appreciate her more. I do not, however, have the same appreciation for the resident that I saw before her. He did not listen. He relayed his opinion to Dr. Bokat but presented it as mine, which I corrected once she came in. I would not care to see him again.

UofU Patient
July 22, 2017
I've said it before, and I'll say it again: Dr. Bokat is a rock star of a physician! She is kind, listens carefully, takes time to explain things, and makes me a partner in my own care. She is sensitive to the fact that I am an individual, and that whatever treatment plan might work for another patient might not necessarily be right for me.

UofU Patient
July 19, 2017
I speak highly of this clinic to everyone I know here in Utah and back home in Ohio

UofU Patient
June 27, 2017
As usual, Dr. Bokat was awesome. She is caring, professional, friendly, and works hard to tailor my treatment plan to my specific symptoms/problems. I appreciate how she listens carefully to me, is empathetic, and strives to be as helpful as possible. I truly appreciate her.

UofU Patient
June 19, 2017
I am sure the provider was not able to review the extensive paper work and precious labs before my appointment

UofU Patient
June 17, 2017
Dr. Bokat answered all questions,addressed all concerns, seemed willing to give my mother treatment choices and personalized the experience, did not seemed rushed, talked in terms we could understand

UofU Patient
June 14, 2017
Due to the reactions I have had to some medications I am often nervous to try a new one but my concerned have been addressed very well. I appreciate the different types of treatment that have been discussed/provided.

UofU Patient
May 31, 2017
Dr Bokat is one of the best doctors I have ever seen, and unfortunately I've seen many. she is always so caring, and compassionate. She always and I mean always spends whatever time necessary to answer any questions or concerns I have. She is so knowledgeable and willing to help in anyway possible. I truly don't know what I would do without her. she has helped to change my quality of life and you can't put a price tag on that! I would be happy to refer any one dealing with chronic pain to her.

UofU Patient
May 29, 2017
Dr. Bokat is awesome!

UofU Patient
May 22, 2017
Dr. Bokat, as usual, was awesome! She takes me seriously, listens carefully, and approaches me as a whole person and not just as a patient. She seems to comprehend that I have a life outside of all the medical issues with which I am dealing, and treats me with respect.

UofU Patient
May 19, 2017
Dr. Bokat is awesome. Couldn't find a better doctor anywhere.

UofU Patient
May 05, 2017
They handled my anxiety about the procedure very well reassured me and gave me time when I needed it.

UofU Patient
May 02, 2017
I felt in great hands with Dr Bokat. She is knowledgeable, articulate, and seems to truly care about my condition and helping me to get better.

UofU Patient
May 01, 2017
Dr. Bokat for president.

UofU Patient
May 01, 2017
this was just an initial visit, so we didn't talk much about medications or treatment plan. that is next time

UofU Patient
April 02, 2017
I truly appreciate the care I have been given by everyone at the pain clinic.

UofU Patient
April 01, 2017
Dr. Bokat is absolutely wonderful. Entrusting my healthcare needs to her is a no-brainer because she is caring, professional, friendly, knowledgeable-- and she CARES. She treats me with respect and has confidence in my explanations about my symptoms and experience. It feels great to be treated seriously, and to have a physician who strives diligently to find effective treatment plans that are personalized for my specific needs.

UofU Patient
March 04, 2017
prescription was called in different than what we talked about for the treatment plan with no explanation for the change.

UofU Patient
February 20, 2017
Dr Bokat is a partner in your migraine care. She listens to your needs and concerns, explains options and treatments and as a partner we decide the best course for my future. she is easy to contact through myChart when difficult to get into, is willing to look at all options and explain things in non medical terms. They really need two or three more of her.

UofU Patient
February 18, 2017
I felt the doctor really did not consider the pain I am in and prescribe appropriately.

UofU Patient
February 15, 2017
My experienceat the pain clinic has always been ecceptional, that's the reason I c

UofU Patient
February 02, 2017
I'm extremely comfortable with the knowledge, ability, and care of this provider. She's a sweetie.

UofU Patient
January 29, 2017
Dr. Bokat is an amazing doctor. Truly. I appreciate her expertise, professionalism, knowledge, kindness, caring, and sense of humour. She makes me feel at ease, and has been very helpful in treating me for my terrible headaches.

UofU Patient

one of the fellows was a little weird, but Dr Allen and Dr. Bokat and Dr. Jackman were super nice and quite funny

UofU Patient

UofU Patient

both of my doctors where caring and helpful..both understood and was willing to listen..

UofU Patient
October 29, 2016
I was impressed with all the doctors and nurses and the care and attention they gave. I was also was grateful for their gentleness and "least harm and pain" to dx.

UofU Patient
October 19, 2016
I was impressed about the concern she showed and her complete explanation and concern about my feelings and level of understanding .

UofU Patient
October 18, 2016
Dr. Bokat, in my opinion, is a rock star of a medical provider. She is awesome.

UofU Patient
October 17, 2016
dr bokat yes. the physical therapists not so much.

UofU Patient
October 16, 2016
Dr. Bokat is amazing along with all of the staff! We love the U!

UofU Patient
October 10, 2016
Dr. Bukat was very personable, a good listener, and made me feel like she understood my concerns. I thought she felt genuine concern for me, especially that there just aren't that many options for treating my problem.

UofU Patient
September 25, 2016
doc was awesome liked that I got a plan

UofU Patient
September 13, 2016
I never was helped by anyone but the nurse.

UofU Patient
September 04, 2016
she takes all of my concerns and addresses them one at a time until I feel completely comfortable not only with what is happening but our plan of action. she explains all the options and leaves it up to me with her recommendation, and I feel completely comfortable with her. I can ask her any and all questions I have without feeling rushed. she schedules appointments long enough for patients who my not be at their best, suffering at the time from a migraine, and still take care of what they need. She has proven her experience, concern and recommendations to be quality since I first met her with my incredible change in quality of life since working with her.

UofU Patient
August 30, 2016
Dr. BOkat and her Anesthesiology Resident were great!

UofU Patient
August 16, 2016
Dr. Bokat was very through and made me believe in her expertise and knowledge, therefore the help she was providing.

UofU Patient
July 23, 2016
Dr. Bokat has been a lifesaver and an answer to my prayers. After moving to Utah from WA (Seattle) I wasn't sure that I'd be able to find a provider that would be as qualified and helpful as my previous headache specialist. Well, Dr. Bokat is wonderful. She is courteous, friendly, attentive, professional, and caring. She seems to understand my medical needs and takes me seriously.

UofU Patient
July 17, 2016
I cannot say it enough: Dr. Bokat is awesome. She is courteous, caring, professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. I trust & appreciate her expertise and empathy. I also appreciate her taking the time to explain any hiccups that come up along the way, and how she works hard to rectify those situations.

UofU Patient
July 15, 2016
I really like Dr. Bokat. She inspires a lot of confidence in me concerning her expertise, knowledge, and experience. She is courteous, professional, friendly, and caring. Unfortunately, on this day, I was unable to receive my scheduled procedure because of a mix-up regarding a medication I was taking, so my procedure was rescheduled for the following week. Dr. Bokat explained the situation to me and was very apologetic.

UofU Patient
July 07, 2016
Dr. Bokat is very thorough and seems very invested in my health. She does a great job of reading though my patient history and is not afraid to follow up on unusual findings or to investigate any symptoms that might be a concern. She is also on top of current research and relies on good evidence when giving recommendations. Given how busy the clinic always appears to be, I'm sure she has a lot of her patients and is very busy herself, but I've never felt rushed during an appointment with her. I appreciate all the work she puts into my care.

UofU Patient
July 03, 2016
Dr. Bokat seemed to grasp how painful my headaches have been. She listened carefully, asked pertinent questions, and suggested a treatment plan that seems reasonable-- and that I'm hopeful will be effective in reducing the frequency of my headaches & the severity of the pain.

UofU Patient
May 31, 2016
This was my first visit - the evaluation. I spoke of my inflammatory issues and explained them in the questionnaire. While the physical evaluation wasn't terribly uncomfortable the end result was a tearful first night without sleep - to the point of throwing up. I'm now in my fourth day of increased pain with pounding headaches... not a pleasant experience.

UofU Patient
May 24, 2016
I felt that both the resident and attending were efficient and compassionate. they were concerned and attentive towards my needs. I would absolutely recommend this provider.

UofU Patient
May 21, 2016
I halready mentioned it to a friend who has shingles.

UofU Patient
May 17, 2016
my experience was very pleasant and knowledgeable I was treated with respect and dignity I would recommend two others with chronic pain depression etc...

UofU Patient
May 16, 2016
I've been seen by a number of healthcare professionals for this issue... Dr. Bokat was the top of the list for listening and discussing my health concerns. She's truly a terrific healthcare professional.

UofU Patient
April 26, 2016
great

UofU Patient
April 25, 2016
Dr. Bokat was very pleasant and very informative.

UofU Patient
April 19, 2016
I appreciate the time Dr. Bokat took to review an abnormal test result (from a test another doctor order) and discuss it with a colleague in order to ensure that I didn't have anything serious wrong with me or anything wrong that would interfere with our treatment plan. She is obviously interested in my overall health, not just in pain management.

UofU Patient
March 21, 2016
Dr. Bokat took her time in making sure all my questions were answered and my concerns were heard. I did not feel rushed, which I feel is so rare in todays medical field.

UofU Patient
March 15, 2016
After having to wait so long to get into this clinic, I was hesitant that no one was going to listen to me once I arrived, so seeing Dr. Bokat took all of that away as she was calm and listened and asked me about everything and was very aware of what I had already tried. She seemed aware of my case.

UofU Patient
March 07, 2016
The Doc took time and great care.

UofU Patient
March 06, 2016
Would have liked more time with Dr.

UofU Patient
February 16, 2016
I didn't spend more than five minutes with Dr. Boket on each visit. The Pain Clinic was my last resort and I felt that maybe they should have looked deeper into whatever it is that I'm suffering from. I started there in late November and was dismissed mid February. Very disappointing.

UofU Patient
February 15, 2016
Very kind and caring doctors and physical therapists!

UofU Patient
February 02, 2016
a little dissapointed in the result of the visit

UofU Patient
January 28, 2016
I saw Dr. Bokat at the very end of the appointment. The rest of my time was with her resident. They were both very friendly and helpful. I was running late due to bad weather, and they were still willing to see me. I was very relieved, knowing that the policy states otherwise. They talked to me about my dogs, and helped me to feel a little less stressed about being there. It was a great appointment overall. The only reason I marked "fair" on number 4, is because at this time I'm not being included on decisions regarding my treatment. The physician, psychologist, and physical therapist are meeting to determine my care.

UofU Patient
January 26, 2016
I really would like to continue to return to Dr. Bokat for my botox treatments. She took time to explain things to me, and gained my complete trust quickly.

UofU Patient
January 26, 2016
I have been very pleased thus far

UofU Patient
January 25, 2016
She was very understanding and concerned about my condition as well as the medications I was already on when considering treatment

UofU Patient
January 18, 2016
Dr Bokat seemed aware of complex issues and was willing to be flexible with suggestions that would best fill my needs yet still leave the decision as to course of action up to me. her insightful knowledge and experience was well worth even the four month wait to get into her.

UofU Patient
January 16, 2016
I don't know that I've had a physician that I sensed was more interested in getting to the bottom of my diagnosis or interested in making sure they understood the problem. She did very well and I really appreciated her attentiveness and concern and being thorough.

UofU Patient
January 10, 2016
Rachel and Christina both spent time discussing other issues I am going through too and their affect on my pain management. They listened and asked pertinent questions

UofU Patient
November 19, 2015
I totally respect Dr. Bokat! I might cry when she tells me things but that's because I can't cry at home. She puts up with me and speaks directly to me. I would recommend her to anybody. She is an excellent Doctor.

UofU Patient
July 14, 2015
Dr. Bokat is amazing! She listens and she truly cares. she calms me down when I am panicking. I worked in a pain clinic and quit because of lack of true concern for their patients. Dr. Bokat and all the staff are how every pain clinic should be. I applaud them for their thoughtfulness.

UofU Patient
June 23, 2015
Excellent
