October 07, 2022★★★★★I'm extremely happy with the care and thoughtfulness Daniel Hovey provided.
October 06, 2022★★★★★Daniel was extreme professional and so knowledgeable! I felt as though he listened to my concerns and took that into consideration when discussing treatment options. He was very thorough and explained all possible risks and potential complications. He took an enormous amount of time with us to review my history and to go over my scans. Very professional and offered to contact the surgeon to meet with us since he was pretty certain this was the direction we weee headed in. Dr. Daly cane in and also spent a generous amount of time with us. I felt instantly reassured by this stellar team and I have full confidence in them. They were personable and were genuinely interested in my long term goals for regaining function and being able to resume my active lifestyle. I am beyond impressed with the consistent professionalism and expertise of everyone I've encountered this year at the U and it's been a busy one for me and my family!
October 04, 2022★★★★★Very educated and insightful.
October 02, 2022★★★★★My experience has been overwhelmingly positive. Both my in person and Zoom meetings were professional, informative and courteous. I was given a lot of information in an easily digestible format and all my questions were answered.

July 29, 2022★★★★★I don't have a lot of care options at this point. That may/will change over time.
July 23, 2022★★★★★Not happy with my outcome but the facility and staff were exceptional. I got more answers, clarity, and honesty from this provider than I'd gotten from a Surgeon who had performed multiple surgeries on me through a different provider at a different facility. But at least I now know what's going on.
July 17, 2022★★★★★I was very impressed.
July 04, 2022★★★★★Dr. Dailey and Daniel Hovey are tremendous. Went through all the details of my surgery. Show me before and after X Rays. Set out the future plan. Was very positive about my progress. Couldn't have a better team.
July 01, 2022★★★★★Daniel Hovey is great!
June 20, 2022★★★★★This refers to Hovey
June 20, 2022★★★★★I was very pleased with all the help I was provided during my entire visit. My husband and I were discussed that I will switch from IHC to the University of Utah health care from now on. I definitely would recommend the same to others.
June 18, 2022★★★★★He was very thorough and explained everything very well.
June 15, 2022★★★★★Daniel Hovey APRN was excellent, personable and compassionate
June 14, 2022★★★★★Daniel Hovey was one of the best providers I have ever worked with. He listened to understand my perspective and goals. He took time to go ver the film and show me what was going on. He was very compassionate and discussed a "phased" approach to my condition. I give him the highest rating possible. He was far above other providers I have visited in SLC.
June 14, 2022★★★★★Thee is no way that I could complain about a single factor.
June 11, 2022★★★★★Very thorough and answered all questions. Reviewed X-rays & test results

May 21, 2022★★★★★Good
May 21, 2022★★★★★The nurse was very kind and helpful. Daniel Hovey is amazing. He has absolutely assisted me with this difficult situation with my back and broken ribs.

I am very blessed to have him as my medical person.
May 17, 2022★★★★★He did great taking me through the entire process.
May 16, 2022★★★★★I've never had such good attention. I'm too used to providers that don't want to explalin anylthing - they're In too big a rush to get to the next patient and all the billings that follow for "not good medical attention and care". Untill now it has been quite disgusting.
May 13, 2022★★★★★Daniel Hovey is excellent and explains everything to ensure your understanding
May 13, 2022★★★★★I was told he didn't think he could do anything else for me. Felt like I got fired?
April 22, 2022★★★★★Such an excellent and professional visit
April 18, 2022★★★★★Daniel Hovery is very kind and professional in all that he does
April 18, 2022★★★★★Excellent care. Daniel Hovey is outstanding.
April 05, 2022★★★★★The health care provider was professional, personable, knowledgeable, supportive, and kind.
April 03, 2022★★★★★Great experience with Daniel. He took his time, showed compassion and answered my questions.
March 22, 2022★★★★★I recently saw Daniel Hovey. He referred me to Huntsman Cancer Institute for a total body bone scan to assess me for metastatic bone cancer. I was also referred to Mountain Medical for a thoracic CT Scan to assess me for lung cancer. Hearing the news that doctors were concerned enough to order these scans was shocking and terrifying. I have four kids, I'm young and otherwise healthy. Upon leaving the visit with Daniel Hovey I was handed his card and told to call him Immediately after I was done with these tests. They said I wouldn't have to wait for results, he would be able to quickly review them and discuss them with me the same day. I had the CT Scan on [DATE REMOVED] and the Total Body Bone Scan on [DATE REMOVED]. I still have heard nothing from Daniel Hovey or from anyone is his office. I have called many times and left messages and have been told that someone will call me back to discuss the results, but these promises have been unfounded. I am able to see the results in MyChart, thank God. Things look ok as far as I can tell but I have no idea what the future plan is. I have no closure. I have only silence. These past few weeks, waiting to hear back from doctors on such critical tests, have been the most excrutiating weeks of my life and have taken an incredible toll on the lives of my family too. I think the way this has been handled is completely inappropriate, considering the severity of the tests ordered. Thank you so much for listening.
March 19, 2022★★★★★It was a life changing experience to fund Dr Hoovey. He is excellent. He is concerned about me and I trust him. That means everything to me!
March 18, 2022★★★★★Dr Daily's team, to include Daniel Hovey, shared their gift of repairing my spine defect. God is still working with me on the slow and at times painful nerve regeneration and physical healing. I'm blessed and pleased with the results to date.
March 15, 2022★★★★★My x-rays looked great. Dan and Dr. Dailey gave me my life back in terms of having a successful surgery and outcome. I am so grateful for their help.
March 13, 2022★★★★★Daniel is one of the best providers I have ever been to. I will be going to him for life!
February 15, 2022★★★★★Would like to speed up the process
February 15, 2022★★★★★I am having back surgery in less than two weeks. After leaving Daniel's office, I felt much better about the surgery. He softened any fears that I had about the surgery.
February 11, 2022★★★★★Dr. Hovey was excellent, listening to my concerns, explaining things I didn't understand, and generally helping me feel comfortable by providing knowledge and pleasant interaction.
February 07, 2022★★★★★I have experienced several office visits with Daniel. He is an amazing physician's assistant. It's surprising how he remembers all of the patients he deals with on a day to day basis. I have found him to be quite attentive to questions, and his answers are explained in easy to understand terminology. This is VERY rare in today's hurry you out of the office mentality. Daniel always takes the time to make sure you know how you are, and explain what needs to happen going forward. Again, This is very appreciated.
January 21, 2022★★★★★Such a positive experience!
January 16, 2022★★★★★Was great
December 26, 2021★★★★★All he had was "answers" where do we start
December 26, 2021★★★★★Daniel Hovey is very kind, professional and it is an honor to have him as a care provider
