Dr. Savarise was excellent - I was very pleased with his care. I have just one suggestion. It would be good if post-op instructions were given in writing as well as verbally, so that I don't forget things.

UofU Patient

Great experience with both Dr and staff

UofU Patient
January 12, 2019
Horrible experience I will never recommend people to the hospital I will not want them to go to what I went through

UofU Patient
January 02, 2019
DR Savarese is very compassionate and a very good practitioner, however, access to him through the clinic is not very good

UofU Patient

Dr. Savarise is excellent in every way--thorough, caring, warm. I can't say enough good things, plus the surgery and recovery went extremely well.

UofU Patient
August 03, 2018
Dr. Savarise is the nicest surgeon I have ever met! He made me fill comfortable, he looked over everything in my chart to decide if I was a good candidate for surgery and gave me the truth or if the surgery would help or not. I've visited other surgeons for this same request and each refused to treat me because I was "too healthy" to have my gallbladder removed, but after struggling with IBS for 6+ years and nothing has worked he was willing to give surgery a try.

UofU Patient
July 17, 2018
Dr. Savorise was excellent, he used illustrations from a phamplet to explain what was going on and easing my fears of the condition and the process and time to heal.

UofU Patient
July 12, 2018
Dr. Savrice is awesome, removed 2 lipomas on my lower back and didn't mind me watching with a mirror.

UofU Patient
June 24, 2018
Savarise is excellent--smart, straightforward, thorough. Scheduling of both the appointment and surgery couldn't have been more convenient.

UofU Patient

UofU Patient

Dr. Savarise is an amazing doctor! He was both friendly and informative about my about my procedure every step of the way. I never had any questions because simply I had none because he explained everything so well! The whole process from checking in with the front desk girls to getting brought back was amazing. I love the University of Utah.

UofU Patient

UofU Patient
April 09, 2018
This was my first visit to Dr Savarise and I feel completely confident in his care for my health concerns. I sincerely appreciated his comfortable yet confident demeanor and the time he spent to explain all aspects of the procedure I may need, other options, and how my health concerns have progressed to this point. Explaining the procedure in detail and the recovery process helped me make a more confident and informed decision. You don't usually expect surgeons to be that personable and easy going, so it was refreshing.

UofU Patient

UofU Patient
January 31, 2018
Dr. Savarise is a great health care provider, I've seen him a few times and every time he is very attentive.

UofU Patient
January 25, 2018
I can't begin to explain how happy I was with Dr. Savarise! I even let my PCP know after the appointment that she needs to send more patients to see him! Not only did he make sure I left with a clear understanding of my treatment plan for what I was scheduled for, he also had reviewed my chart ahead of time to see that I was recently seen for another injury. Without me prompting, he quickly asked me about it, let me know he reviewed the notes and agreed with the other provider, but then went on to explain to me what my next steps needed to be. This was above and beyond my expectation and more than I have experienced with most other providers!

UofU Patient
December 25, 2017
Excellent.

UofU Patient
December 24, 2017

UofU Patient
December 03, 2017
I LOVED Dr. Savarise and felt so confident about having surgery after speaking with him. He has great bedside manner, made continuous eye contact with me and my husband during our visit, answered all the questions I had and I never felt like he was rushed. I will be recommending him to any one I know who needs to be seen in the general surgery department. He was truly wonderful!!!!

UofU Patient

UofU Patient
September 26, 2017
I love it when I find a doctor who knows more than I do (which you'd think should be the case everytime since I have no medical background). Not only did he know what he was talking about, but gave me details, reasons, and options as to how to proceed further with my health care. I loved that I didn't feel like a number to him, that I was an actual patient.. a person with concerns and questions about my health (all which he answered). I felt very well taken care of, and know now that I'm in great hands. I left feeling happy that I found a doctor who actually cared, addressed my concerns and didn't put me off (reschedule) to extend visits to milk me or my insurance to solve my health concern like most doctors I've come across at IHC. Thank you for being such an amazing doctor and taking the time to explain things to me quite a few times so that I understood everything to the full extent. It seems so rare to find good doctors who actually care, and he does. :) Thank you!

UofU Patient
September 15, 2017
great

UofU Patient

Dr. Savarise was the most pleasant doctor I've seen in quite sometime. The caring and compassion he showed and exhibited was exactly what I needed, considering I might have Lymphoma. I will recommend him from the rooftops if necessary.

UofU Patient
June 21, 2017
This is the 3rd doctor I have seen for the same problem. He was so kind and knew exactly what the problem was and gave me hope for resolving it with medication. Great doctor

UofU Patient

Dr. Savarise is an excellent doctor. He takes time to explain what my issue was and how he was going to operate on my leg. I appreciate how he responded to my concerns in my followup visit. You should give him a raise in pay.

UofU Patient
May 09, 2017
Dr Savarise is an excellent provider and made us feel like we were a priority. He showed great concern

UofU Patient
April 28, 2017
Dr. Savarise was recommended by my Brother who said "he is a phenomenal man". I found that assessment of him to be very accurate and true. He was always welcoming and professional. I felt comfortable and confident through the whole ordeal.

UofU Patient
April 10, 2017
Dr. Savarise was cordial, professional, and respectful. He seemed to understand most of my current symptoms, concerns, and medical history fairly well. I do wish I had pressed him a little further on a couple of points/issues, but perhaps we can chat about those things next time.

UofU Patient
April 04, 2017
I loved Dr. Savarise! Almost made me wish I needed surgery!

UofU Patient

UofU Patient
March 03, 2017
While we hope we never need the services of a surgeon again, we were very pleased with the care that Dr. Savarise gave.

Dr. Savarice was kind, empathetic, and understanding. He did a great job of making an uncomfortable situation tolerable for me. He was excellent at telling me what he was going to do, explaining the procedure as he was working, and being sensitive to my discomfort. He went a long way toward easing my concerns by answering all my questions - he is a very sensitive and caring doctor.

UofU Patient

UofU Patient

final instructions between nurses and physician were a little confusing and I had to call the physicians office the following day. No real issue just some uncertainty.

UofU Patient
February 22, 2016
Dr. Serveries was extremely professional and helpful, as well as being courteous and relaxed. His student intern, Jordan, was equally courteous.

UofU Patient

no complaints.

UofU Patient
February 16, 2016
I received recommendations from friends to have my procedure handled at the South Jordan facility. I'm glad I chose that center. I will recommend it to others.

UofU Patient

Care provided and the environment was exceptional. The doctor (Savarise) really instilled confidence in me.

UofU Patient
January 11, 2016
Everyone there takes the time to answer all of my questions.

UofU Patient
December 18, 2015
It seemed as if he didnt want to help me or didnt even want to be there. He came in to the room and just wasnt very friendly and definitely didnt seem concerned.

UofU Patient
November 27, 2015
He put me at ease when I was really uptight about my situation and I felt comfortable making a decision about what course I should take to resolve my issue.

UofU Patient
October 30, 2015

UofU Patient
August 28, 2015
Dr Savarise is seriously one of the best doctors. He explains everything so well so that I understood it. He has great bedside manner. He listened to me and I never felt dumb asking any questions. He addressed all my concerns. He even called me on my cell because of my concerns and questions regarding my surgery. What doctors do that? So awesome! I recommended him to a lot of my friends who need to get their varicose veins fixed.

UofU Patient
August 18, 2015
The staff kept my husband informed

UofU Patient
August 18, 2015
The staff and the physicians were AWESOME. Made me feel at ease with the procedure. I was told what was going to happen ahead of time and gave me the opportunity to ask questions.

UofU Patient
August 18, 2015
I had put off the procedure for several years but once I was in this staff care, all of my fears passed.

UofU Patient
August 05, 2015
I did not like the fact the the nurse, Tauna, took advantage of telling me about the procedure. When the doctor came in, he saw that Tauna had already informed me. I think she should have let the doctor talk with me.

UofU Patient
July 24, 2015
Procedure was much easier than expected. Looking forward to not having to deal with problem in future.

UofU Patient
July 05, 2015

December 04, 2014
My first visit with Dr. Savarise. Extremely professional, yet gentle and down to earth. Gave careful consideration to my input without inducing any alienation whatsoever. Carefully answered my questions and concerns with no rushing. Very interactive and explained things in a manner conducive to my level of understanding while always maintaining a pleasant smile. Doesn't get much better than that.

UofU Patient
October 20, 2014
I did not receive a follow-up care paper or instructions. This would have been helpful to know what to do and what to expect--what is normal or not normal.

UofU Patient
September 27, 2014
My visit and time spent with Dr. Savarise was a very pleasant time. He was so kind and understanding. He made sure I knew what the procedure was and what he was doing. He was a true professional with great ability to work with patients and helped me to feel calm about my procedure.

UofU Patient
September 25, 2014
Good

UofU Patient
September 25, 2014
Doctor Savarise has been very accommodating to my needs, both pre-op, during and post-op. I was able to text an image of the affected area of surgery, to see if he thought I should get a post-operative visit before the routine post-op visit. Having the ability to correspond via MyChart is a very nice feature of the U of U Health Care services too.

UofU Patient
September 08, 2014
Dr. Savarise is awesome. He knew what he was doing. He was quick, and very professional.

UofU Patient
September 07, 2014
I met Dr. Savarise for the first time at this appointment. He was friendly, professional and explained everything to my satisfaction. I had a few questions about the mesh he planned to use in my surgery and he cleared up everything that I was concerned about. It was good, comprehensive care.

UofU Patient
September 07, 2014
I had a new doctor this time (as the PA I used to see--whom I really liked--has moved). I am happy with the care I received and am relieved to have found a new doctor that is very caring and professional.

UofU Patient

UofU Patient

I requested a saline treatment, but unsure if that was the treatment I received. I had saline treatment at U of U in Salt Lake City hospital approx. ten (10) years ago. Salt Lake clinic was successful and minor bruising. I was confident same care/results would be at South Jordan clinic. It is yet to be determined/due to results of this current treatment.

UofU Patient
November 04, 2013

Surgery needs to be repeated because hernia (though obvious) was not repaired fully. I'm at my wits end figuring out what to do about this.

UofU Patient
September 24, 2013
Doctor and nurse were both excellent at putting me at ease and getting me through the procedure with as little pain as possible.

UofU Patient
September 21, 2013
I should have asked him for written instructions , I know this wasnt a big deal but I felt like I had to ask all the questions ,I asked him about pain management as I was leaving walking down the hall.

UofU Patient
August 19, 2013
The doctor saw me as an add on and he was wonderful. He addressed my pain and explained the procedure to me before and after. Very professional and very kind

UofU Patient
July 09, 2013
I had met Dr. Savarise previously at my office and he remembered me, which I thought was great because, as a pediatrician, I don't send him many patients. He listened well, answered all my questions, and really put my mind at ease about my procedure.

UofU Patient
July 02, 2013
I was so impressed with the cna she was very nice and made me feel at ease The dr. was very nice as well
