UofU Patient May 28, 2014We are extremely happy with our doctors and the entire staff at the University of Utah Centerville Clinic.
UofU Patient November 21, 2013Doctor Y apologized for being so far behind, saying he had two emergencies come up. I realize those things happen. He seemed quite distracted and trying to "get his head" into my appointment. I assumed the emergencies were negative and had an effect on him. Also, for some reason, my labs were not available for Dr Y to use during my appointment and that also seemed to throw him off.
