It would seem that the mistakes in this visit could and should have been avoided by simply talking through the planned procedures with me rather than looking at and relying on the wrong notes from a prior visit / chart and forging ahead with eye dilation rather than the scheduled visual field. In other words, if they had asked me, I would have told them that the appointment was for a visual field rather than eye dilation, instead of wasting everyone's time that day, inconveniencing by vision for the day, and necessitating a follow-up visit later.

UofU Patient

Doctor Chortkoff is very professional -- she is also a great listener. She takes time to answer questions and many times provides answers without the questions being asked. I have full confidence in her care. She makes a patient feel comfortable and she gives her full attention to the patient she is with.

I have visited this MD for several years - invariably find her to be interested in my health, informative, and personable. Given that I am a nurse, we are able to discuss matters in more depth which is appreciated.

UofU Patient
December 06, 2017
I love Doctor Chortkoff, she is wonderful. I have always left her knowing that I am am doing the best for my vision. She is such a busy Lady I am sure, but took time to send me a warm sympathy message, when my Mother passed away in October. My family were impressed by this. I appreciate her very much.

Usually my eyes are not dilated because of my close angle glaucoma, however, they were this time. No drops were administered to reverse the dilation afterwards.

UofU Patient
June 01, 2016
Dr. Chortkoff walks in the treatment room with a smile and cheery greeting. Even though she had a full schedule (which I know, because I was being worked in), she takes time to be very thorough. She listens to my concerns and addresses my questions and concerns. I am very confident in Dr. Chortkoff and would definitely recommend her to others.
UofU Patient
May 31, 2016
I was very impressed that Dr. Chortkoff had reviewed my chart THOROUGHLY prior to meeting with me. I was a little nervous to meet with a new doctor in fear that something may be overlooked or a different opinion or diagnosis would not play in my favor. After leaving my appointment I can say a am 100% comfortable with Dr. Chortkoff and I fully trust that she will provide the best care for my vision!
UofU Patient
May 31, 2016
My need for an appointment was urgent because of my past history with a similar problem. Not only was the appointment easily scheduled, but Dr Chortkoff was able to arrange for Dr Shakoor to see me during the same visit.

Dr. Norm Zabriskie was my doctor first in the clinic. He was outstanding. When I heard, from him that he would be leaving I was a little disappointed. I had someone else before Dr. Sorthoff(? spelling) who was nice but I didn't warm up to. Dr. Sortkoff was extremely helpful, friendly and wonderful about providing information about my conditions and other eye questions I had

UofU Patient
February 06, 2016
Dr. Chortkoff is very, very good about explaining procedures, conditions, reasons, and expected outcomes. Her dedication to good care is abundantly clear. She is diligent about performing or ordering tests to confirm or negate clinical impressions. This patient is convinced all manner of reasonable care is being provided.

As I said before, I come from Idaho to the Moran, because I feel like I am in very good hands and treated very well. Dr. Chortkoff is wonderful--she is curious, takes time with me, looks over my records carefully and compares prior years with the current--she is not in a hurry at all. And as I said she is curious. I feel like I am maximizing the probability that any problems will be discovered in a timely way by coming to the Moran.
UofU Patient
December 07, 2015

Dr. C is just awesome!!
UofU Patient
November 19, 2015
This was the first time I was seen by Dr. Chortkoff and I was very favorably impressed with her efficiency, personality, technique and knowledge. She explained things clearly, was thorough, and followed through with informing me of test results. She used hand sanitizer when she came into the examination room, and again every time she handled the computer and then examined my eyes. She even put a clean Kleenex on the counter on which to place my eye glasses while she was examining my eyes! She was not rushed and was a good listener. I would definitely recommend her to others.

UofU Patient

Dr. Chortkoff is very thoughtful and caring towards me.
UofU Patient
September 11, 2015
The medical assistant explained about the testing and how the machine worked. She reduced my stress over the testing procedure itself. I felt more confident in the procedure once I understood better how it worked. This was the most informative explanation I had received about the machine/testing although this was my 4th or 5th time for such a procedure over the past several years.
UofU Patient

UofU Patient
August 31, 2015
Dr. Chortoff has been excellent in all aspects - she has gone the extra mile to give me the best care. She took the initiative to check the outcome of the Path report for a growth removed from my right eye. She then called my home and cell phone to discuss it with me, expedited an appt. at Huntsman and got me in two weeks earlier than I had been able to do on my own - changed her schedule to see me to follow up after tests at Huntsman and overall has shown a caring and personal interest in my care. I have never experienced that kind of care from any doctor in any discipline in the past and I greatly appreciate her interest, professionalism the care she provides for her patients
UofU Patient

Had to wait longer than ever before for Dr. but after she was there, she took good care of me and made me feel at ease.
UofU Patient
August 03, 2015
Dr. Chortkoff explained my condition and what to expect in the future. She was very helpful in telling me how I might proceed in getting new glasses since I most likely would be needing cataract surgery in the near future. And what I should be thinking about when that time comes. I appreciated her candor.

UofU Patient
January 16, 2015
We were not Dr. Chortkoff's typical patient since my daughter has no serious eye problems. Still, she spent time with us and explained things to my 12-year-old daughter in detail without seeming condescending. Dr. Chortkoff's assistant (who performed the eye exam) was also terrific and very thorough. I am sorry that I don't remember his name.
UofU Patient
January 14, 2015
Dr. Chortkoff (sp) was personable, knowledgable, caring, and efficient. I am and was fortunate to see her. I would be happy to recommend her.
UofU Patient
January 13, 2015
Dr. Chortkoff identified the problem I have been having with my glasses. I have been complaining about the right lens for a year, and she was able to determine that the astigmatism measurement had been left out of the prescription. Previously, technicians and doctors alike just told me I tested at 20/20 and nothing could be done. Since I had an appointment later that day with Dr. Christiansen, the low vision specialist, she decided to let him provide the prescription. I appreciate Dr. Chortkoff for determining that my glasses were NOT correct.
UofU Patient

Great technicians and Dr. Chortkoff is excellent...sorry if I spelled her name wrong!

When the Dr. first diagnosed my problem in the fall, she said I had a condition often seen in people with high blood sugar, and to get my physician to test it. If she had said it looked like "Diabetic Retinopathy" I would have taken it more seriously. So in this case, simplifying the language was not the best approach to use with a patient with a PhD.
UofU Patient

Dr Chortkoff takes the time to explain things on my level. She shows great concern to my worries.
