)
The patient rating score is an average of all responses on our patient experience survey. The rating averages scores for all questions about care from our providers. The scale on which responses are measured is 1 to 5 with 5 being the best score.
Patient comments are gathered from our patient experience survey and displayed in their entirety. For the convenience of our visitors, some patient comments have been translated from their original language into English while preserving their original meaning as accurately as possible. Patients are de-identified for confidentiality and patient privacy.

very good doctor
I feel so fortunate to be able to be his patient. He explained things very clearly to me, and the plan of moving forward was clear to understand as well, and made sense to me.
Great doctor. Very caring and listens to you. He answers all your questions and takes the time you need to understand. Highly recommend him if you are in need of the services he provides.
To state that Dr Glotzbach is amazing is a very modest description. I've worked with CT surgeons the majority of my career. The more refined or focused a professional hones his (or her) skills, the less time he/she has to keep in touch with the "normal " world. They tend to loose some of their social/people skills. Dr Glotzbach is one of those rare brainiacs that has managed to remember to make room for his heart while climbing to the top. I am definitely a fan.
Glad to meet you see you soon
Such a nice Dr. very easy to talk to.
Informative and caring
He was very kind and took his time with me. Didn't try to rush through my appointment.
In my opinion, Dr. Glotzbach is very good and excellent at the care and caring that he exhibits for his patience.
personable and professional
Again, PHENOMENAL!
I know the lungs aren't your area of expertise but it bothers me when my report states problems with my lung and you don't even mention it.
Best communication of any Dr I have seen.
Very easy for me to talk to him and his staff. He makes me feel comfortable to talk to him if I have any questions.
A very caring and informative physician. He answered all my questions appropriately.
Dr. Glotzbach is not only a top-notch and very responsive, compassionate doctor but he has assembled a team of like minded professionals as his support staff. The care I have received to this point is allowing me to proceed with confidence as I prepare for very complicated open heart surgery. Everyone at the UofU has been wonderful. It is worth the 700 mile drive to receive this level of care.
I highly recommend Dr Glotzbach and the entire staff within this practice.
Loved Dr Glotzbach. He was attentive and unhurried. He asked many questions so that he could make a correct recommendation. Made it clear that it was my decision.
Very caring and professional.
Dr Glotzbach is what all doctors should be. Superb knowledge and a caring, patient bedside manner. I am fortunate to be under his care.
Dr Glotzbach is the most impressive person I've met in this journey. Kind, thoughtful and very professional. He is admired by the staff and recognized as being a top surgeon. They also liked him because they said he was ¿patient¿. He not only kept me informed but my family, as well.
it was a great experience and I know that I can call with any questions I have and my doctor and his whole team that he works with are fabulous
Good
I felt good about the appointment and help Dr . Glotzbach offered me.
Very good
It has been great so far
Dr Glotzbach was very informative and explained and answered my questions with clarity. The entire team was exceptional.
He was so compassionate when he told me I needed to get open heart surgery a year ago. He has continued to provide excellent care in my follow up appointments since.
Can you please refer to my earlier comments? This man helped save my life and keeps me alive and well. There's so much I am grateful for. He is one of the kindest, most caring people I know!
Dr. Glotzbach is the doctor I will have do my surgery. Explained my situation thoroughly in an understandable way. Listened to my concerns.
Dr. Glotzbach is great. He is very caring and understanding and I feel very fortunate to have found him to care for my aortic aneurysm.
I feel very confident that Dr Glotzbach is capable to take care of my heart problem and resolve the issue.
During routine screening for some elective surgery I was found to have a congenital heart defect that would have been fatal if it had not been caught. I was unconvinced, asymptomatic and very hesitant to proceed. Dr G's office is over 300mi. from my home, so he coordinated local care and we met viirtually to review testing. By the time surgery happened, I was completely comfortable with both him and his team. Five other board certified cardiac surgeons had never seen this surgery done on an adult. I don't know that I would have had the courage to go forward with this surgery without finding such an experienced, innovative, doctor. He and his staff were at my bedside at least once a day. They were never in a rush. My prognosis now is to go forward in life without the need for more surgery. I'm very grateful for Dr. G and his team. The CVMU nursing team was brilliant! UofU was incredible.The flexibility in my treatment plan and Dr. G's approachable demeanor made the difference in my care
All of the professionals that I came in contact with were wonderful + extremely knowledgable. The surgeon was very easy to converse with + obviously on top of his game.
There was a team of doctors who saw me and all were very professional and courteous during my visit.
Was punctual, caring, understanding.
He was professional, knowledgeable, explained my condition and instructions very well
Dr. Glotzbach has a wonderful, caring bed-side manner. He clearly explained my situation, patiently answered all of my questions and recommended a wise path forward. I consider myself truly fortunate to be under his care for a potentially serious issue. If my friends ever gave heart issues, I will recommend Glotzbach to them.
great provider
Awesome staff. Professional, they provide information, answer questions, are friendly and provide a caring atmosphere

I can highly recommend Dr Glotzbach to perform my surgery. After the remote overview he held with me, I am confident things will turn out well. Kudos to him and his staff!
Great team and doctor to have!
Very personable.
Personable and professional. I'm facing a serious surgery. I feel comfortable with my choice of Dr.Glotzbach to do this surgery. I researched him and I feel comfortable with my choice. The U of U has also been great to deal with.
Dr. Glotzbach is a top notch surgeon. One would have to look far and wide to find a professional that rivals his skills and his teams skills. If someone is unlucky enough with their health to require Dr. Glotzbach's care they will only receive the finest health care. Want wish only the best to the Dr. and his family. [NAME REMOVED]
