Awesome Dr, honest and genuine!!
Dr. Joyce has been wonderful to work with while undergoing shoulder surgery and recovery. All of my questions were answered, and everything was explained to me in ways I can understand. I used the resources provided, and my interactions with the team were always positive. I had questions and concerns after my surgery that were addressed and managed extremely well. I am very happy with the outcome of my surgery and the care that Dr. Joyce provided.
Dr Joyce is extremely kind and has the sound of a real Doctor. There are many, many MDs, but few have the soul of a Doctor. Dr Joyce epitomizes his profession. He listened carefully.
Dr Joyce was excellent!!
Dr. Joyce is a very, knowledgable, caring, and skilled surgeon that thoroughly explains your condition and the treatment plan. I was very impressed with the level of care I received from Dr. Joyce.
Very personable and explained my situation in terms I could understand. So nice and made me feel very comfortable!
This was my first time meeting Dr. Joyce. He was very professional and caring. I appreciate his understanding of my condition and recommendations for treatment moving forward.
Dr. Joyce treated me with respect and caring. He presented me with all of my options, and answered my questions truthfully and thoroughly.
My surgeon in my home town replaced both of my shoulders about 16 years ago and the hardware inside my shoulders has worn out and needs to be fixed, my doctor said he was comfortable fixing my shoulders because it is a very complicated surgery, and he said that no Surgeons in my area don't do these kind of procedures, so he recommended that I visit with Dr. Joyce at the University of Utah medical center, so my wife and I made the trip to visit with him, he was extremely nice and explained everything so I could understand, he said that both my shoulders needed a revision surgery to repair the worn out parts in my shoulders. He is very intelligent and experienced with this specific kind of surgery. I will have my first one done next month June 19th. I would highly recommend this Doctor, he has had a lot of experience doing these type of Surgeries.
I like that Dr. Joyce is waiting to see if I'm able to work through what's happening with my shoulder to see if it will get better without needing more surgery.
Dr. Joyce was professional as well as extremely personable and put me at ease immediately. He shared his observations regarding the condition of my shoulder and the options that he felt were available to me on a very understandable and clear manner. He engaged me in the decision making process about what path I would like to take regarding treatment and answered all my questions clearly. He definitely earned my trust and respect'I would give him a 5 star rating!
I was very appreciative that a surgeon was willing to offer treatment options that weren't surgery. He is very personable and easy to talk to. I felt very comfortable with his advice and expertise.
It has been a pleasure meeting Dr. Joyce and having him treat me! DR. Joyce is very polite & very professional with a very positive attitude; he has a great team working with him as well!
Dr. Joyce is an exceptional physician-kind, knowledgeable, respectful, answers questions clearly and understandably, transparent about surgery, encouraging, hopeful. He is my surgeon -I'm grateful. I trust him.

Dr. Joyce is competent, compassionate, and professional. You should trust him with your life and especially trust him with your shoulders!
Very smart name knows his business
Before surgery I asked him a little bit about his background and training. And it really impressed me. Before I asked him those questions, i sat in his exam room and listened to him talk about different options and what they would entail and that impressed me. The day of the surgery he showed me everything that was going to be done using my own x-rays as the example. That was impressive. After the surgery he was kind and his staff was wonderful helping me out. And then in my follow-up he was to the point and told me what I needed to watch for and gave me suggestions for the future. So far it has been a great experience.
Thank you.
He gave his best opinion on my shoulder I'm waiting on other surgery and the outcome of it before he can operate on me he has a good plan for me
Dr Joyce is great and has a great understanding of the situation at hand
Dr. Joyce was very professional and thorough in his assessment of my condition. His exam was complete and his explanation of the diagnosis was easy to understand.

Great Dr. Easy to talk to and explains things that you can understand
I have to apologize for mistaking Dr Joyce with my doctor. He was direct on what he said, and I am being kind of sceptical on if I'm going to go through with it or, I just might get a second opinion, because I really have to think about it if I want a metal ball in my body.
He talks until he run out of things to say and when you speak it's obvious you're thoughts don't matter.
My neck surgery will be shoulder replacement, this will be the third surgery that Dr. Joyce has done for me. First one was my humorous. The other was my right shoulder now my left shoulder needs a replacement. Dr. Joyce is one of the most professional and knowledgeable surgeons I've ever dealt with.

Great surgeon and an even better person.
Dr. Joyce is always professional and caring. Taking the time to answer all of our questions, He's been thoughtful in finding a solution to my rate shoulder injury. He's gone above and beyond to communicate and respond to emails and provide recommendations as we navigated finding the best fit for a physical therapist and a routine that fit our schedule. We also have to travel a distance to and from appointments, Dr. Joyce has been very considerate of that, using telehealth options when he can and finding the right hybrid program to best meet my needs. We also really appreciate the professionalism of Dr. Joyce's staff, every time we visit the nurses and physical therapist have been kind and helpful. This a great team! Thank you!

Enjoyed meeting him and appreciated his advice.
Dr. Joyce is excellent in treating clients with courtesy and respect, listening carefully, explaining things in a way I understood and including me in decisions about my care options. He runs a kind and efficient clinic where all scans and follow up appointments can easily be scheduled as part of the visit.
Dr. Joyce is the best surgeon there could possibly be. His follow up and genuine concern about my recovery was impressive. He is very polite and thorough. You wonÕt find a better surgeon anywhere. IÕm very happy and blessed to have found him.
I love a doctor who listens and keeps you informed on what's going on. I've never had a doctor contact me the night before surgery to see how I was feel and to reassure me about the surgery. I would recommend him to all my friends and family, he made me feel like a friend. Keep it up.

Dr. C. Joyce is extraordinarily competent in all aspects of his medical talents. He is most certainly a cut above. When choosing a doctor, bed side manner is an important factor in addition to medical competance.
