Dr. Brennand always wants to know how I have been doing since the last injections and addresses any concerns.

He was really quick and made my botox relatively painless and he explained everything really well
UofU Patient
August 27, 2017
he asked me very few questions. he abruptly left after proceedure and wasted a complete syringe of botox by throwing it away. he only asked one time where i wanted placement and as a result never hit my severe spots.

I had another person besides Dr Brennan, she was very nice, but her technique was not as good. I had a migraine and headaches for 3 days afterwords. This may not have been any fault of hers, I don't know. I just have not had that happen before. I usually just feel tired after my treatments.
UofU Patient

Dr. Brennan is an excellent provider. He is so professional and has an excellent bedside manner. He takes as much time as necessary, and explains everything thoroughly. I respect him and trust him implicitly. I'm so grateful for his kind care

I feel that the side effects were not talked about enough because I got very sick the day after and had to research into Botox to find out that it wasn't worrisome.

Dr. Brenin is an amazing soul. He does a great job at what he does in try to help heal people. He always treats you as a total person even when he is just addressing the issues of injections. You should give him a raise.

I couldn't be any happier with Dr. Brennan. He is so respectful, helpful, and professional. I feel like he asks questions until he understands my situation perfectly. He makes suggestions and gives ideas that feel like they will be very helpful for me regarding the chronic migraines I've had for over 24 years. I feel like finally we are making significant progress. I am so very grateful! I've had only a few minor headaches since June, and it's January!

Always a wonderful experience with you facility, the receptionist/secretary Debbie Bettinson is the absolute sweetest/professional/best/goes out of her way to help, awesome nursing staff, and Doctor Brennen is the greatest. When someone (my daughter) is so sick and in so much pain for such a lengthy time of her life, it means so, so much to have such a positive experience time after time.

This was my second visit with Dr. Brennan. He is very professional, answers all questions thoroughly, and makes sure I understand my condition and how the treatment can be helpful, as well as other at-home treatments I can try to help with additional progress toward reducing pain.

UofU Patient
August 07, 2015
I was very nervous about the trigger point injections but Dr. Brennan took the time to explain it to me. I thoroughly enjoyed the fact that once he realized I might not be the 'average' patient, he took the time for a discussion with me on the science behind the injections - including past and possible future studies.
UofU Patient

UofU Patient
April 24, 2015
my experience with this doctor was markedly different than before. He was very kind, very willing to answer my questions, treated me respectfully, and gave me prompt treatment without delay or even putting me through another series of activities to determine whether I was being honest about my condition. I really appreciated being respected and being given information at my level of understanding.
UofU Patient

Dr. Brennan is a very kind, courteous and likeable person. He addressed my concerns and wanted to make sure that I was happy with the botox procedure and wanted to know of any areas in my head/neck/back that would benefit from the treatments that I needed for my migraines.

UofU Patient
April 14, 2014
Dr. Brennan seemed a bit rushed that day. I travel 5 hours each way and spend the night in a hotel each time I see Dr. Brennan since he is a specialist that I trust. It's important to me to have time to ask questions and discuss the treatment.

As an established patient of Dr. Digre's this wasn't my first visit to the clinic; however, it was my first visit with Dr. Brennan for Botox and he was very informative and answered all my questions very thoroughly.
UofU Patient

UofU Patient
June 25, 2013
Dr. Brennan was very short with me when I was trying to give him my medical history. He kept saying he had to go and seemed very impatient. It took almost two years for me to finally get an appt. and I think he should have acted more patient with me. He seemed knowledgeable however.
UofU Patient
March 11, 2013
First time meeting and having patient care with Dr. Brennan. Found him to be very likeable, professional, and informative. Was very at ease with his care during my procedure.
UofU Patient
December 03, 2012
His confidence in his diagnosis was comforting but really threw us off balance because we did not think it would be so easy without an MRI.
UofU Patient
November 27, 2012
He let me know exactly what he was doing and why. I felt very comfortable with the injections I was getting because he knew so much about them and informed me about as much as he knew. I would have to say it was the best doctors visit I have had.
UofU Patient
October 04, 2012
Dr. Brennan has been an excellent provider throughout our experiences with him. He has provided the only lasting relief she has received after years of trying many treatments. We understand that her headaches are very complicated and impossible to cure, but Dr. Brennan has our complete confidence and has met with a good measure of success.
UofU Patient

Dr. Brennan was very clear and concise with what needs to happen and I appreciate him explains things so well on a level that I could understand.
Dr. K.C. Brennan is Associate Professor of Neurology and Vice Chair of Research in the Department of Neurology at the University of Utah School of Medicine. He was educated at Georgetown University and the Columbia College of Physicians and Surgeons.
Dr. Brennan's clinical practice is dedicated to the headache disorders. These conditions, which include migraine, cluster headache, and post-traumatic headache, are disabling, often stigmatized, and poorly understood. It is becoming increasingly clear that these disorders are not 'just headache,' but complex disruptions of brain excitability and homeostasis.
Dr. Brennan spends much of his time examining the basic mechanisms of migraine and post-traumatic headache. His lab uses a variety of techniques, in animal models and in patients, to understand the neural circuit disruptions that cause an otherwise normal nervous system to produce pain.
