He's terrific

WOULD RECOMMEND DR HAMILTON !!!!

Dr Hamilton is a gem. I feel in such safe hands. First, he is a great listener and collected all my history about this problem. He also inquired about my opinions regarding future scans and monitoring. He incorporated some of my suggestions in his follow up plans. He reviewed the films with me. He's so gentle, compassionate and immensely knowledgeable and experienced that I hope the university knows what an asset he is for the organization. My other urologist I liked as well but relocated suddenly. I am relieved I found Dr Hamilton to transfer my care to. The transition was seamless.

Superb communication experience.

Doctor was very informative

Excellent Doctor

Dr. Hamilton is wonderful. Have had one in person office visit and one phone visit but the trip to Utah was well worth it. I can not thank Dr. Hamilton and Dr. Botak enough for taking their time during appointments to not only ask questions but to listen to patient concerns/frustration with current PCP/Pain Contract Dr. and guide me to a good treatment plan as I do not live in Utah.

Informative, concerned consultation, as in past visits.

The doctor is great, it is just that I am 78 and even though I had my daughter here, neither one of us could get my laptop to do the virtual visit

first rate physician who has been a great resource and comfort over the years--could not recommend him enough. An asset to the University

Although the procedure to remove a stent is an uncomfortable situation, everyone was professional and worked to make me feel comfortable as could be.

Dr. Hamilton is the most experienced urological surgeon at the clinic, and I was fortunate that he accepted me as a patient. He is helping with several issues: bladder tension/urine retention, ED, and prostate enlargement. He has succeeded at arresting all problems. Among his bladder prescriptions, however, I decided to avoid risking side effects of of dementia with Oxybutynin and weight gain with Trospium. Dr. Hamilton kindly changed my Rx to Solifenacin, which I am now taking. Yet with my advancing age (79), he has dispensed with PSA testing for signs of prostate cancer. Dr. Hamilton's bedside manner is just right: not over the top, just cordial yet formal, knowledgeable, and upbeat. He is wise and has acquired a diversified knowledge base in addition to his specialty. He has spoken intelligently (though not at length) about every subject I have ever mentioned. His enlightened positivity inspires a patient's confidence. As a token of my esteem, I chose to include him on my short list of gift copies of my latest monograph, a full-color, scholarly edition published in Spain (which retails for $150). Dr. Hamilton is thus unique in his department, an expert in his field, an erudite professor, and a credit to the U of U's national ranking and international prestige. I recommend his work to all of my friends as a superlative, 5-star, A+++ physician.

Dr. Blake Hamilton is at the peak of knowledge and experience in his career. Having completed 1,000 surgeries, he has become the iconic exemplar urologist of the western states. Even so, he is not aloof. He is kind and welcoming, tending to my needs, and patiently answering my questions. As such, his performance level soars above not only all the other urologists I have known but also the 5-star and triple-A-plus rating systems used to evaluate probationary faculty.

Dr. Hamilton listens to my concerns and responds, and then introduces additional information to consider. I feel I can trust him to do what he needs to do expertly, and with the experience to anticipate any problems. He is not afraid to discuss pros and cons.

We have already shown 1. BP can be lowered by running 2. Renal/splenic pain can be dissipated in 24 hours with ultrasound. We are hoping to show with a repat CT scan that ultrasound can impact the size of renal/splenic infarcts, and possibly a renal cyst. A successful 5K was completed yesterday.Thank you! [NAME REMOVED]

I loved Dr. Hamilton. He treated me with respect, he knew right away what was going on with me and didnt dismiss me like others had because my situation is rare and not many urologist have experience diagnosis or treating it. He did an excellent job explaining the procedure and giving me information for what to expect after my surgery so that I didnt have any false hopes that it would be fixed and have no further problems. He also knew I needed to be seen by a urogynecologist and helped me get set up with an appointment . He also asked if I would like to go home and think it over with my husband before e scheduled the surgery so I didnt feel pressured into something considering it is a big decision. I also live 6 hours away and he took that into consideration when talking with me on how long I would be there after the surgery. He said hed feel more comfortable keeping me a little longer invade there were any issues and because of the distance Id have to travel.

Very professional

Dr. Hamilton is a leading urologist in his field; I am so fortunate to receive his care as a patient. He is a master of all urological conditions, statistics, and the performance of his pharmaceutical remedies, yet without guile, pride, or criticism. As an accomplished surgeon, having performed upwards of 1,000 urological procedures, he can advise with hands-on experience, in all conditions and maladies. He epitomizes the Hippocratic oath. Dr. Hamilton transcends the typical 5-star, A+++, quantification, and has my absolute trust and confidence. Yet he joins the other outstanding providers of the U of U Hospital and Clinics that I have known in the past decade--the best health care team I have ever known in my 80 years. To be sure, I publicize these perceptions with all of my associates.

Dr. Hamilton, is caring, kind, knowledgeable and I appreciate his honesty

Dr. Hamilton was very professional. He made sure I understood the diagnosis and the treatment options. He even drew pictures.

Dr. Hamilton's explanations were detailed and specific. My treatment is entirely by meds, which are all working fine for me now, having just completed my 78th birthday. Dr. Hamilton is extremely caring but never over the top (insincere or gushing). He consulted me at length regarding the performance of the Rx's and cautioned that my bladder medication Oxybutynin has been known to hamper cognitive health, a side-effect associated with dementia. At our next meeting I intend to begin a replacement (as he explained that there are other alternatives). I would recommend Dr. Hamilton or U of U Hospitals and Clinics to anyone in the world (just ask).
