    SOUTH JORDAN HEALTH CENTER

    On the initial visit I would have benefited from more detail about the procedure (duration, limitations, etc.) - had to call clinnic to get this. Then following the procedure the Doctor and assistant said good luck and left the room - not asking if I was OK or in need assistance getting up from the table. Very different than experience at other UofU facilities where patient safety is more top of mind. Instructions were available in MyChart but not covered at appointment.

    SOUTH JORDAN HEALTH CENTER

    Dr. Gee was very professional & communicated very well.

    ORTHOPAEDICS CENTER

    Knowledge and professional. Good patient care.

    SOUTH JORDAN HEALTH CENTER

    knowledge of treatment and relief,

    ORTHOPAEDICS CENTER

    Kind, caring, explains well, asks questions and listens

    ORTHOPAEDICS CENTER

    Dr. Gee is very patient and kind. I am a frustrating patient because it isn't clear where my pain comes from. Many other providers have dismissed me after they realize they don't know how to help me. That has not happened with him, which is more encouraging than I can verbalize.

    SOUTH JORDAN HEALTH CENTER

    Dr Gee was very thorough and explained what was going on with my hip and how he was going to treat the issue

    SOUTH JORDAN HEALTH CENTER

    Excellent

    University Orthopaedic Center

    Dr. Gee and team were very professional and caring. They listened to my concerns an addressed my questions. They moved quickly, but not rushing me. I felt in good hands. Going to a specialist is often something done out of necessity, not choice. There is always some anxiety, but they made me feel better about what happened, treatment options and next steps.
