Dr Tyser was very patient and explained everything about which I asked regarding the carpal tunnel surgery
Tyser was personable, confident and communicative
I was worked in last minute due to injury. Very caring staff and thoughtful of insuring my health and cared about my problem and injury
Should have been more sensitive to my pain level. I cried for 2 was in server pain. Tylenol did not touch the pain level. Finally dropped to that pain level when I moved, otherwise the pain did not leave me. Now the dr is suggesting surgery. And now I have carpal tunnel and need surgery.
Very professional and helpful
The only bad... was finding nothing wrong to an ongoing problem. But not the doctor's fault!
Excellent surgery procedure and results.
Dr Tyler was excellent
Dr Tyser is always good to listen and move forward with any treatment or necessary testing.
good experience
I almost felt like the problems I presented to my physician was the least of his concern. as if the issue I advised I "should" be able to ignore without it becoming any concern of mine that the issues I have may not progress into something worse. he advised that my condition can just "go away" yet after 10 months working from home and doing just that "waiting" my pain has steadily increased moving from a 1 to a 2 now to a 3 and going even higher. some days I can't even express the amount of discomfort I feel in my wrists and how much this experience makes me want to completely give up. I didn't want medication, I wanted options, treatment options. a brace? how about another x-ray? the pain I feel CANT just be ignored it's causing so much pain I am going to seek additional treatment elsewhere hopefully where I can find a dr who will even just listen to the fact I told them I've waited I went through 14 sessions of physical therapy all to be referred to dr tyser for absolutely no help but to continue enduring the pain that I have. thank you
Dr Tysher was fantastic
I just felt like I wasn't offered any hope in regards to my knees

Awesome
Amazing
Dr. Tyser did a great job on my carpal tunnel surgery. Throughout the entire process he explained the problem we were dealing with, our options, and the procedure/path chosen. He listened to my questions and concerns and then addressed them. Dr Tyser is very easy to talk with. The surgery went well and I am in recovery with minimal pain. I am very pleased with the entire process and highly recommend him and the U of U.
He listened and answers questions well
Very good
Dr. Tyser provided clear explanations in a respectful manner & answered my questions.
Very good bed side manner!
Great staff, excellent care, and very personable. The only negative in the entire department can be because they are so busy, it can be a challenge in scheduling an appointment.
Dr. Tyser has a great personality. He is an excellent surgeon and has an amazing staff.
Andrew is kind and cares. Listens and is very professional. He is personable and knows his profession I felt very confident that my surgery would go great. I would personally like to thank him for his work on me. Much appreciated.
Approachable, knowledgeable.
Dr. Tyser was very arrogant and refused to hear my concerns or answer my questions. He was condescending and dismissive and offered no help for my problem.
I would not want to take him anywhere else good job
Dr Tyser was personable and efficient. He explained his assessment and treatment recommendation very clearly.
Mi experiencia como paciente por primera vez con El doctor especialista fue my satisfactoria y excelente en cuanto SE refiere a su profesionalismo como medico y ser humano Esperanto que siempre sea ASI la misma experiencia MUCHAS GRACIAS a El y personal medico...
Dr. Tyser was very friendly which I liked positive and careful and caring of my needs. Treated me very well with respect to him but I am pleased to of had him as my Doctor.
Dr. Tyser is a great physician!
He acted as though he was in a hurry. I felt rushed.
I am always pleased with the personal attention Dr Tyser gives to me ...never rushed, listens and explains and suggests....plus of course being a fine physician
The Physicians made me feel important, worthy and comfortable. I was afraid of being told that there was nothing to be done or be unimportant with my issue with "tennis elbow" but instead was made to feel of value, that the issue was of genuine concern and should be addressed in every way possible.
I was completely informed and all decisions were left up to me!
I became light headed and anxious. Staff was great to get me declined with feet up, bring me water and let me stay there after the procedure was completed until I felt better.
Doctor Tyser was extremely friendly, frank, and thorough. I felt confident in him and he left me leaving feeling really cheerful.
Very informative and a great experience
Dr Tyser was friendly, efficient. He showed me the fracture in my finger on the xray, we talked about a splint, possible infection, etc. I was in good care.
The entire staff was excellent
All good.
Dr. Tyser was very personable, professional and explained the procedure and on going treatment in laymen's terms which is most appreciated.
I liked Dr. Tyser a lot. He listens, he hears and is interested In what you have to say. He also has a nice sense of humor. He does not rush you in and out.
Dr. Tyser seems like a very competent and technically sound surgeon. I had no problems with the procedure itself and I loved that he explained what he was doing as he was doing it. My issue is with the lack of care afterwards and when I reported that my pain was not under control even after following the post op instructions, I was told to try the ER or instacare. I've never had a care team try to direct me somewhere else after a surgical procedure, especially not for unmanaged pain, and I would have never gone forward with the procedure had they made it clear that was their stance. I don't know anyone who would consent to having their wrist cut open without a way to manage the pain of that afterwards if OTC medication isn't cutting it. I feel like I didn't get to make an informed decision.
Very helpful
Dr. Tyser was very professional and friendly and explained things to me during the procedure. I felt very comfortable.
Listened and explained the process and attentive to my questions.
In addition to obviously being a skilled surgeon, Dr. Tyser is a very nice person. Concerning my hand surgery, at pre- and post-surgery, he was friendly and genuinely interested in making sure that I understood what needed to be done and what steps would be/were completed, carefully answered all my questions, and invited me to contact him at any time in the future if anything came up that I was concerned or had questions about. On a scale of 1 to 5, he is a 5+!
He is a wonderful Doctor listened to my concern
Good doctor Good care
Dr. Tyser was awful. He didn't even look at my elbow but then said he did a full exam in his notes. I kept trying to ask him questions and bring up concerns and he kept putting me off and not even answering them at all. Then after about a total of 2-3 minutes in the room he stood up and opened the door for me to leave. I can't do basic activities and he didn't even care. He was rude and dismissive. I haven't had a bad experience at the U of U health until him.
Dr. Tyser was easy to talk to. He was kind, helpful and knowledgeable. He made me feel comfortable and listened to my concerns. Rather than jumping into surgery, he suggested giving me a cortisone injection to see if that would help the problem with my hand.
Dr. Tyser (pronounced TISH-er) listens extremely well. He is an expert on fingers and hands. He is able to explain your options in plain language, but lets you make the final decision. Highly recommended.
Dr. Tyser is a great doctor, he is friendly & upbeat Dr. Tyser is friendly and upbeat. He listens to your concerns. He explains things in a way that you can understand.

Dr Tyser was very knowledgeable and made me comfortable with trigger finger in both hands. I had every confidence in the surgery he performed and was confident in his skills.. I had injections almost two years ago with Dr Tyser and didnt consider seeing any other Dr when the problem came back I knew it could.

Everything was very positive, and he answered all my questions
Very professional and personable A must for today's American patient

I was very impressed with both Dr. Tyser and his fellow.
no warning at all about cortisone flare. Holy smokes. I'd have liked to have been warned in advance about the risks from a cortisone shot. I was in so much pain for 3 days, with no prior education or warning about how to deal with it.

Dr. Tyser is an excellent surgeon. I had a great result, with quick healing, from surgery for arthritis in my left thumb. He listens. He does not overpromise, or pressure. He answers questions. One of the best providers I've encountered in my 70 years. Highly recommended.

I've seen Dr. Tyser several times and he's always been very thorough yet has a conservative approach which I appreciate. I feel like he takes into consideration my unique circumstances and together we come up with a treatment plan that is both evidence based and reasonable. I highly recommend him and his team.
Very kind, caring and supportive
He gave me options and he explained all. Very complete descriptions of everything.
Great!
wish he had shared the x-ray films with me so I could see for myself what my hand looks like.
I will be forever grateful for the work of Dr. Tyser to provide me with pain free hands.
I appreciated his explanation of the procedure and his letting me watch. I was fascinated and felt extreme confidence in his skill.
Great work doc. Sorry about the Packers.
This great doctor knows his stuff. He has made this procedure as easy for the patient as possible. I am very grateful for his help.
He seemed to have made his mind up about what my problem was before he came in the room. He spent little time and barely spoke to me. Just wham, trigger thumb, here's a shot goodbye.
Very thorough and very kind
Dr Tyser was a phenomenal surgeon. From the pre-op appointment to the surgery itself, Dr Tyser provided detailed information about the procedure. Throughout the procedure he was patient and supportive to the intern and resident and kept me informed on how things were progressing.
He is kind, has a base of education that he can relate to my issues. I am very happy to have him in my care.
Dr. Tyser was very patient with my questions and concerns. He explained my condition and treatment options in a manner that was clear and understandable.
Dr. Tyser explained everything before the procedure and then again as he did each step. He constantly ask me if I was OK.
I'm really impressed by the care I received.
I trust him, he was easy to be with, was completely satisfied with our conversation. He listened to my concerns. Thank you!
Great experience- Dr Tyser is friendly, caring and capable
Great demeanor, patient and thorough.
Dr. Tyser is the best. He has helped me several times with various health concerns in my hands and wrists: carpal tunnel surgery, "trigger fingers" etc. He's compassionate and understanding and doesn't jump to a diagnosis until he explores all the information. He takes the time to listen and I never feel like he's watching the clock. 10/10 would recommend him.
He's a very smart and intelligent man who is able to make you understand in layman terms has a great bed side manner and delivers on what he says
Dr. Tyser is the one doctor you want to have help you, he truly cares about his patients, he explains things so you can understand them, he is comforting and caring. He is just an amazing doctor with even better bedside manners, I can't say enough good tho ha about him, University of Utah Health is very lucky to have him, he is amazing.
He was great. I had a good experience and a very successful elbow surgery. Would highly recommend.
I had severe pain from arthritis and several other issues with my fingers. Dr Tyser was Able to get rid of the constant pain and gave me back full use of my hand. I appreciate Dr Tyser and all he has done to prepare himself to be a great Doctor.
He listened and explained my choices. I felt trust in his assessment of best way to fix my problem.
He listened, gave me an explanation of the problem and options for treatment. He explained each after some discussion we agreed on a course of treatment.

Dr. Tyser was great - very friendly and approachable.
I was apprehensive because the swelling on my wrist was not the result of an injury. Dr. Tyser was surprised as well but immediately ordered xrays.
Got exactly what I wanted without having to redirect the conversation or press an issue.
Good
I 100% will NEVER see this Dr. Again. Please see previous comments.....
Good
Did earlier. A+
Dr. Tyser was very kind and took the time to listen and explain things to me.
Dr. Tyser never gives up when the outcome of a surgery doesnt work the way it should. He referred me to specialists and they came up with a solution. He doesnt stop providing the excellent service to get me where I need to be.
I feel he has the experience and expertise to provide the best possible outcome for my injury. I also feel he understands my priorities and, where necessary, adapts to them. He communicates well with me and clearly represents my needs to the team
I found more information concerning my condition online, such as ways to relieve pain. It was never made clear to me if I have osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis. At the time of my visit, I didn't know to ask for a differentiation. I would think a responsible doctor, trying to provide a patient with information, would make that clarification.
Great Dr.
Dr. Tyler was very good and understanding. He explained everything so both me and my husband understood the process. He is an excellent doctor!
He was gentle and thorough. He was great
I was very satisfied with his explanation of what needed to be done
Dr Tyser is very knowledgable, professional and relevant.
good
The physician was only unsure because all X-rays looked good.
good
he told me the problem was something different than I thought & that I would be OK, but didn't offer any treatment ideas or timeline for healing.
Dr Tysher listened to all my concerns and answered me, without making me feel like he was rushed.

This was my second surgery performed by Dr. Tyser and he remembered me very fondly. His expertise is top notch and he was very professional and very explanatory of the procedure. Can't ask for a better doctor to take care of my hand next time.

Great and has a good bedside manor
Dr. Tyler did an excellent job and explained everything as he went along. He was very personable and efficient.
I expected the doctor would deal with both arms and hands but he seemed unwilling to discuss problems with my forearm tendons and he did not examine them or want to discuss them. I was glad that he at least gave me a business card for a colleague that could address those concerns.
Dr. Tyser was excellent! I appreciated that he didn't want to jump right to surgery. He discussed three other options and gave his opinion of each, then he let me make the decision about the next step. I felt he was up front and honest with me.
I left with a plan and that was great
Dr. Tyser did an outstanding job communicating with me and answering my questions. I really liked the way he allowed me to participate (at least somewhat) in my procedure process.
