I came to her for a second opinion, after a urologist at a competing chain flat out told me he didn't know how to treat my very common condition, and wanted me to wait for 3 months, to see if I spontaneously improved. I am so grateful that I landed here with Kathryn Trueheart. She listened to me, and immediately began treatment. She's been knowledgeable, compassionate, and pleasant.

Apr 12, 2025

Dr. Truehart is super knowledgeable and confident. She explained things in an understandable way and helped me see the right path for treatment. It's apparent that she sincerely cares about her patient's wellbeing and is invested in seeing them get to optimal health.

SUGAR HOUSE HEALTH CENTER

She was wonderful. She was patient, kind, knowledgeable, and had an amazing bedside manner. Her personality was warm when I needed it to be, and clinical when the situation needed it to be. I came here for a second opinion, and I am so glad I landed in her lap. She was well versed in the situation (the Dr I saw at the other clinic said he didn't understand my very common disease very well). I was slightly nervous about seeing a female doctor for a male problem, but after meeting with her, there's no one else I want to help with my treatment.
