UofU Patient August 22, 2016
Dr. was very informative and seemed concern about my health
UofU Patient July 31, 2016Dr. Halwani was great. I was surprised and delighted he spent as much time as he did with me. it was also great to have the pharmacist in the room whom helped explain the medicines. Both were very professional yet I had the feeling they cared a lot about my situation and were there to HELP be through my ordeal with CLL.
UofU Patient July 25, 2016Completely satisfied.
UofU Patient June 12, 2016There was not a lot of useful information about my condition.
UofU Patient May 30, 2016I had more confidence in the nurse practitioner than Dr. Halwani. My answers above are based on him. He was nice but I need someone who is going to be my "quarterback" over the next few years and I need someone I can feel like I can talk to. I am a Physician Assistant myself, and I want to know all my options up front.
UofU Patient April 19, 2016Dr. Hawani is amazing! so kind and caring about what is going on with you!!! He talks so you can understand he is awesome!!
UofU Patient March 21, 2016I was completely out at ease
UofU Patient March 20, 2016MD texted on cell phone multiple times during visit. While he acknowledged it, seems to me after waiting so long to see him, undivided attention is a courtesy.
UofU Patient January 24, 2016Good
UofU Patient January 07, 2016Dr. Halwani is an outstanding oncologist who is on the cutting edge of his specialty and who treated me with the greatest respect.
UofU Patient November 23, 2015all good
UofU Patient November 10, 2015Both Renee and Dr. Halwani were great.
UofU Patient October 26, 2015DR. HALWANI EXPLAINS TREATMENTS, MEDICATIONS, FOLLOWUPS VERY WELL HE'S VERY DETAILED IN EXPLAINING THINGS AND HE ALSO HAS COURTNEY THAT WILL GO OVER EVERYTHING AT THE END. IN MAKING DECISIONS ON TREATMENT DR. HALWANI EXPLAINED THE TREATMENT USED AND ANSWERED ALL OF OUR QUESTIONS I DEFINTELY INCLUDED US IN THE TREATMENT AS FOR MAKING A DECISION I THINK IF IT'S TRUSTING IN OUR DR. THEN YES WE MADE THE "DECISION"
UofU Patient August 11, 2015We felt from the very beginning that we were in the hands of the best care possible. Everyone was helpful, friendly, competent, professional and caring.
UofU Patient May 04, 2015They should all be commended for their friendliness & caring & helping me to understand what is going on.
UofU Patient May 02, 2015I was very impressed by Dr. Halwani and his knowledge, and how nice and informative he was. I appreciated the time that was spent with him, in hoping that he can diagnose my situation.
UofU Patient November 22, 2014Dr. Halwani is such a caring and knowledgable Oncologist. As always, he is very thorough in discussing all aspects of my husband's condition. We trust him completely.
UofU Patient November 18, 2014My doctor was awesome, he was very kind and really explained everything to me, and answered all of my questions.
UofU Patient October 12, 2014My care could not have been better.

UofU Patient August 08, 2014The DR was assed a lot of appropriate questions to help determine what was going on & he seemed to really care about my health

UofU Patient August 03, 2014dr Halwani is amazing!
UofU Patient July 17, 2014Everyone was amazing. Dr. Halwani is amazing!!
UofU Patient May 25, 2014Everyone but especially Dr. Halwani treated my in an amazing manner on this visit. I was moved to tears by the time and attention he gave to me!
UofU Patient March 23, 2014This has to be the best experience I have ever had at any medical facility.
UofU Patient March 01, 2014All of my experiences have been exceptional.
UofU Patient February 21, 2014The blood results took a week to find out. That was longer than I was told but other than that worrying waiting time all was super!
UofU Patient February 02, 2014I was very satisfied with the. care and consideration I received.
UofU Patient January 20, 2014Fantastic people
UofU Patient January 17, 2014My whole experience was uplifting and reassuring. Dr. Halwani was amazing.
UofU Patient November 27, 2013I don't feel I relate well with his communication style. I feel someone more personable would be a better fit for me. he explains himself well but I feel he is missing the personality.
UofU Patient July 29, 2013Most of the information I received during my visit was from the nurse practitioner. They're loaded with clinical information and I usually spend the bulk of my time with them. The doctor basically looks at my labs and wonders when I'll be classified CLL or when I'll need drugs and medical procedures. There are no suggestions on how to sustain my current quality of life during this waiting period. In particular, there's no discussion on the effect of diet. Why are they not versed on that topic? I guess my belief is that a primary goal of the providers is to get as many of us into treatment and to then keep us there for as long as possible, and to profit to the maximum extent.
UofU Patient June 24, 2013I ask many questions and they are always great about discussing them with me. The problem is that I probably ask to many questions, so I actually feel sorry for your people, but they are always great with me.
UofU Patient May 07, 2013Everyone is very knowledgeable
UofU Patient April 01, 2013Very positive and made us feel at ease
UofU Patient January 09, 2013I am very pleased to be under the care of Dr. Halwani. I feel very confident about his expertise regarding my condition.
UofU Patient December 24, 2012The improvement over my past oncologist at a different facility is very comforting.
UofU Patient December 24, 2012did not recommend treatment just said wait
UofU Patient December 02, 2012Very good care. But concerned that we had came in for a 2nd opinion and I guess we were not clear on the past visit because we were under the impression we needed to get a biopsy to start chemo treatment and was informed we did not need the chemo just yet and don't know if the bone marrow biopsy was really needed. And again I believe this comes back to the schedulers communicating with the Doctors.
UofU Patient June 15, 2012I am pleased with all the staff. they seem to be happy and easy to work with.
UofU Patient May 11, 2012I'm serious about the marks, not only very good, but at times pleasant
