UofU Patient

Dr. Cushman always has a very nice combination of technical knowledge conveyed in the correct level of layman's terms for the patient's understanding of their anatomy/injury. He is quickly able to realize when a patient has a better than average understanding of anatomy and is able to adjust his explanations to be more technical, providing much more satisfactory answers. He is able to do this while keeping a very empathetic view of the patient and their pain. Much appreciated.

I appreciate Dr. Barg referring me over to Dr. Cushman. Dr. Cushman made me feel very at ease, comfortable and explain the process which he was going to provide to me with the injection through the ultrasound. He answered all my questions, and said he would follow up with Dr. Barg and would get two questions answered for and I could call him on the following Monday and he would have the answers for me. He is and excellent doctor.

I have the highest confidence in Dr. Cushman. He was very thorough and took my concerns seriously. I feel like he practices with the most up to date research and best demonstrated practice in mind. I appreciate that he aims to solve and treat the problem, not just offer drugs. In my case, the referral he gave me for for an occupational therapist greatly improved my quality of life and enabled me to keep working with almost no limitations in my abilities.

Dr. Cushman is one of the best doctors I've ever been to. He explains everything so well including a path forward. I've never had a Doctor dig in so much to a diagnosis and follow up with other specialists if it is outside of his field. I highly recommend anyone who wants a caring, thorough doctor to go to him.

I found Daniel Cushman to be very caring and really spent a considerable amount of time with me to figure what was causing the pain in my shoulder. I really appreciated this.
UofU Patient
July 21, 2017
I had a really great experience but I didn't leave with any relief which is kind of frustrating. In the end we kind of still didn't know if the pain in coming from my knee or back. Dr. Cushman said we could MRI my back but we could also MRI my knee and in the end we still might not see anything. It didn't really make me want to get a MRI because it seems like I still won't have an answer after spending thousands of dollars. We also don't know whether to MRI my back or my knee.. I don't really feel any better about my injury but Dr. Cushman and his assistant were very nice, understanding and generally seemed to care.
UofU Patient
July 20, 2017
Dr. Cushman solved the question of why my lower left leg has swollen....I had a Baker's Cyst. He explained it quite simply and set my mind at rest.
UofU Patient
July 14, 2017
I cannot say enough great things about Dr Cushman. Out of all the injections I've had (and it's a lot) he is the only one that truly cares that I'm not in pain during the injections and doesn't rush out after but makes sure I'm ok to sit up before leaving. Absolutely adore him!
UofU Patient
June 27, 2017
Exceptional! How can an old lady complain about having 3 care providers? You were all fantastic! Many thanks.
UofU Patient
June 20, 2017

UofU Patient
June 20, 2017
Dr. Cushman was very thorough with his exam, but more importantly his history and explanation. This is very much appreciated, especially with complicated issues regarding the low back. He gave excellent, concise explanations and I was most impressed by his ability to back up said explanations with data. This is most important in a modern healthcare setting and is what separates facilities and individual providers apart from run-of-the-mill healthcare. I wish all healthcare providers could see the importance of providing evidence based practice, even for laypeople.
UofU Patient

Would definitely recommend Dr. Cushman

Dr. Cushman has seen me re my Knee problem for several times and has always been kind, concerned, and very helpful.

UofU Patient
April 01, 2017
Dr Cushman is an exemplary doctor who listened, asked great questions, educated me, made recommendations and after giving me instructions, asked me to repeat back to be sure I understood. He followed up on my visit with a report to my Physical Therapist. Who could ask for anything more?
UofU Patient
March 27, 2017
The explanation of my condition and what they were hoping to do, was very easy for me to understand.
UofU Patient
March 24, 2017
I truly appreciate the extra time & treatment that Dr. Cushman gave me! His immediate follow up with me is also amazing!
UofU Patient
March 14, 2017
The only issue is there was another dr there too. Not sure who he was. Dr Cushman had to leave the room for a few mins and the other dr was telling me his recommendations. Then Dr Cushman came back in and told the opposite of what the other dr was saying. It was kind of confusing.....
UofU Patient
February 12, 2017
He provided a very good description of what might be causing the pain, and what would occur during the treatment - also, the side effects. Spot on.

I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Cushman. He is ALWAYS there to greet you with a smile. He is incredibly knowledgeable. When he does injections they are less painful (I swear he has some amazing numbing technique that always works) Previous Drs have given me injections and I've cried through the whole thing.

Dr. Cushman exceeded my expectations in every regard. I wasn't confident that there was anything that could be done about my health concern, however he completely fixed the problem with a quick procedure during that very appointment.

I LOVE THIS GUY. Dr. Cushman show genuine care and concern and though we could not address the specific issue for which I initially set up the appointment (required a prior authorization), he focused on an even more chronic problem (my neck) and provided significant relief. I have already referred him to a friend and colleague of mine to evaluate (and hopefully help) for back pain issues.

UofU Patient
February 15, 2016
I would recommend Dr. Cushman in a heartbeat. I've had other injections and they've always been downright traumatic but he was amazing. He described everything that was going to happen and took time to make sure I was ok. Even telling me to stay laying down because he could tell my temperature had risen and I likely would have passed out. He also didn't leave the room immediately. He stayed and made sure I was ok.
UofU Patient
January 30, 2016
I cannot say enough good things about Dr Cushman and his staff. His positive demeanor is amazing. I will be singing his praises for years to come.

Dr. Coleman is to the point, which is fine. He got the job done more than some other doctors that spend more time explaining. In my case, I didn't need a lot of explanation. I wanted some tests done to get a real diagnosis, which Dr. Coleman agreed with.
