The provider was great, residents were great and med student was great. Jim, the clinic manager was great. Clinic protocol is awful and reception/check in is fairly poor.

Provider showed no compassion or concern for the pain I was experiencing

UofU Patient June 29, 2018

Dr . Nunez used some big words I did not understand.

UofU Patient March 24, 2018

I never saw the surgeon. I could no longer wait. I left after 1 1/2 hours wait

UofU Patient December 29, 2017

She wasn't my surgeon and was unaware of my case. She thought I had a appendectomy without complications and was unaware that I was there to have a drain removed.

UofU Patient October 23, 2017

Needed to tell him my phone doesn't always work. The Cancer/pancreas people never got through to me that afternoon by phone.

UofU Patient August 03, 2017

I spent the majority of the visit with a medical student rather than the doctor, but this review is for the doctor. I wish I had spent more time with the doctor instead.

UofU Patient March 09, 2017

no medication and no follow up instructions.

UofU Patient August 01, 2016

they were very very busy the day I was there and they handled it all extremely well. I was impressed. love working with the u if Utah hospital.

UofU Patient July 26, 2016

The attending was excellent. the resident had a poor bedside manner and did not complete the procedure satisfactorily. Unfortunately the attending left the room while he closed the incision. He should have been able to to do this as he was a third year resident, but the incision continues to leak blood 4 days after the procedure.
