Listened to me and helped me meet my needs to live with my illness in a way I want with the meds I need etc
I honestly feel so fortunate to have been led to Dr. Clardy for my medical care. She is an outstanding provider and is truly at the top of her field. I can't recommend her enough.
I like how Dr. Clardy takes her time with each patient
It is very difficult to get help in the area of my need. Very fortunate to have someone within teach qualified to handle the situation.
Doctor did an excellent job of clearly explaining situation. Suggested materials to learn about diagnosis.
Zoom call with Dr Liu and Dr Clardy. They were very thorough, with pleasant and positive attitudes. I'm truthful about diagnosis and situationAnd expectations.
I tried for 9 months to get answers regarding my health. My husband and I did our own research. We found Doctor Clardy at the U. We encouraged our Family Doctor to make a referral. After waiting several months to get in to her and many, many tests and blood work later, we finally received sone answers. I have been seeing Dr. Clardy since 2016. She has helped me tremendously. I would greatly recommend her for your medical needs.
Dr Clardy, is amazing! She shows Compassion and empathy She's very straightforward with great medical knowledge. I sincerely appreciate her hard work.
DR STACEY CLARDY IS THE VERY BEST. SHE IS EXTREMELY CARING. I TRUST HER COMPLETELY.
Dr Clardy is very helpful in my care and takes great care to keep me informed of everything happening for my condition. Sometimes she does get talking about research and using medical terminology that I don't understand that doesn't always pertain to my condition currently- it would be for in the future if my current treatment doesn't work. I like knowing there are other options available if I need them but it's a lot of medical words in the explanation
She expressed her concern about my disease. She explained everything clearly to me. I appreciate her very much.
She explained things well and spent time with me.
She is incredible in every way! Wish my entire care team could be like Clardy!
We were very impressed with her knowledge, competency, caring attitude, experience & overall intelligence.
She is very caring and intelligent. Best neurologist I've seen by a mile.
Appreciate time spoke about situation
I absolutely love Dr. Clardy. She always takes the time to talk to me and answer my questions without making me feel rushed or unimportant. She's so smart, stays up to date with advances in treatment options and is truly a kind person. Good doctors are hard to find. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a fantastic Neurologist.
I love Dr. Clardy, I searched for nine months, trying to find a Doctor Who could help me with the medical problems that I was having. Through research with my husband, we found her at the University of Utah, and received a referral to get into her. I know the help that she is given to me has made a world of difference in my life. Thank you!
I'm grateful for her curious nature. That is part of her makeup as a fantastic doctor.
She explains stuff to the her patients what day should know thats the way I see a good doctor should be
See my prior comment. She is a gem.
I said very GOOD
Dr. Clardy is very knowledgeable and intelligent. I appreciate how well she knows my health history.
Dr. Clardy spend over 2 hours explaining my condition and treatment plan.
I am grateful for Dr. Clardy, after we talk over the issues I have, we decide together which avenues are best to care for my issues. Dr. Clardy types up notes in my chart so I can share it with my family. I have a brain injury and don't remember things unless they are written down. After the Doc has finished the notes she prints it off and we go through it again and she makes additional notes and we go through my upcoming appointments. She is the best and most helpful.
I absolutely love her! Dr. Clardy is so knowledgeable about my condition and treatment options while being personable at the same time.
Dr. Clardy greatly impressed me with her knowledge of Auto Immune Limbic Encephalitis and the options for treatments at the stage that we are currently at. She came highly recommended and did not disappoint us.
Dr Clardy is an absolute gift to have as a Dr. Her level of care & compassion is unmatched. SheÕs able to talk to me in a down to earth manner that makes me feel understood & valued. I am so grateful for her dedication & help!
She's great!
Dr Clardy has extensive knowledge and looks very carefully into getting you the right diagnosis all while being very focused and friendly.
Dr. Clardy inspires confidence and has an excellent manner.
She is a very good MD she also gives me the best advice and listen to my concerns.
Excellent and knowledgeable physician. An expert in her field. Good sense of humor which we need with this depressing diagnoses we all have.
Dr. Clardy is very knowledgeable and competent. I can sense her frustration that there is nothing more that she can do to relieve my pain or cure my very rare illness. I appreciate that she cares about me.
Dr Clardy is a brilliant physician and Im so glad I got in to see her. The wait time for the appointment is long, but its understandable because there are very few doctors with her specialized care.
i appreciated the doc and the time he took wth my husband and i explaining to us what needed to happen. i thought he had a clear understanding what should happen!
I waited for about 40 minutes online between the nurse starting the exam and the doctor and when she came on I felt a little rushed to get a question answered but she did talk to me about it.
She is very professional and an excellent doctor. [TRANSLATED]
If you are with her, you are in a unique situation, she will tell you things that you didn't know that they knew
She's amazing! She diagnosed my condition 8 years ago and has been an expert and friend ever since.
Dr Clardy is amazing
I was a nervous wreck when I got to the clinic and remained that way until the doctor came in and was able to calm me down.
She's is the best in Utah at what she does! Dr. Clardy cares a great deal about her patients quality of life and it shows! Her compassion and trying to put herself in her patients shoes is unsurpassed. I was diagnosed at 11 with Transverse Myelitis and now at 48 it's getting harder. I cannot recommend Stacey enough! Go! Even if you're scared and haven't been to a neurologist in years (me) and think every option has been explored do not let this hinder you from making the appointment! No matter what stage of the disease you are at, she would absolutely be my first contact! Don't give up, she is the real deal! *Ive never left a review for anything in my life* I hope this may sway your decision to make that call.
Since my first visit she has been caring and tried to get the best understanding of my health concerns. She listens and teaches and shares her knowledge, then follows up on concerns. She has helped me so much in understanding what is going on with some crazy ailments and what would be the best way to proceed. I am very grateful for her knowledge and care. The staff she works with are also thorough, kind and courteous
I was so impressed by the kindness, thoroughness, and level of concern shown. the doctor was also very knowledgeable.
Shes always gone above and beyond to help me.
I have had 3 visits with Dr Clardy and she has always been very professional, as well as, interested in my rare medical disease. She is caring and has called physicians in other medical schools trying to find more information to help care for me better.
Both Drs were very good.
She is fantastic, very professional and amazing.
Exceptional and caring provider. Explained my diagnosis and suggested additional resources for education which have been very helpful and informative. I could not have asked for a better experience!
I felt listened to and validated. I felt I was genuinely cared for.
They were very explanatory.
Dr. Clardy is caring and thorough. She does all she can to get answers for you. Dr. Clardy is clearly one of, if not the best, neuroimmunologists in the country.
Very knowledgeable in neuroscience, is always willing to help with anything that she can do for me.
Stacy was very in formative. I wish in Insurance company had a better upper staff then advocates.
She. Is. The. Best that I know
