Patient Rating
Patients consistently praise Dr. Sundaresh as knowledgeable, compassionate, and highly skilled, highlighting his strong bedside manner and emotional intelligence. Many note that he listens carefully, explains diagnoses and treatment rationales clearly, and takes time to answer questions, which helps reduce anxiety. A minority reported mixed experiences with clinic logistics or handoffs—such as long waits, resident-led portions of visits, or initial medication details not provided immediately—but several of those concerns were later addressed through messages or phone follow-up.

Dr Sundaresh is very thorough. Explained my options and the next steps for my care and what may be needed in the future based on their outcome.
Dr. Sundaresh failed to name the drug with which he wanted to treat me (Reclast, by IV infusion) or review with me potential side effects of the drug. I asked for the drug's name in a MyChart message, which was answered promptly. I did some online reading about Reclast, and asked about side effects in a MyChart message to Dr. Sundaresh the night before my scheduled infusion, and stated that I would not proceed with the Infusion until my questions were answered. I called the clinic at 7:20 am the next morning and spoke with Emily, who told someone about my issues. Dr. Sundaresh then called me, and was yery pleasant and informative, responding to all my questions. I proceeded with the infusion.
Provider showed care and understanding.
Dr. Sundaresh even called the dentist.
New physician to us. Seemed in a hurry.
From my very first dx of my health concerns, our decision to come to Utah has been nothing but excellent customer service.
I mentioned that I was tired during the day and often needed naps. He was very quick to it was sleep apnea. I felt like I had been quickly dismissed and shoved off to another doctor. He continued to ask questions and see what our concerns were, but honestly I was already shocked and a little baffled at the pass off and couldn't think clearly.
Good
He is a very smart, kind man.
I appreciate Dr Sundaresh. He is so knowledgeable and caring in the way interacts with me.
Dr. Sundaresh was very knowledgeable, respectful, personable, and kind. He provided education on nodules of the thyroid, the statistics of people in the community that have them, and to not worry about them being cancerous. He educated me on the different medications and encourage me to go back to my former medication due to side effects from the medication that I have now. I really appreciate the care that I received. Thank you.
My first appointment several months ago seemed rushed and I learned the doctor had allotted only 15 minutes for me. I felt like I hadn't finished with my questions. The 2nd appointment didn't seem so rushed and I felt better about the communication with the doctor.
There was a bit of a bias towards bone medications; but I felt that Dr. Sundaresh was very respectful and supportive of my decision to not take bone drugs right now. I also felt that he was pretty thorough in ordering labs to identify causes of the osteoporosis diagnosis I was given.
Great interaction and understanding. Spent time listening and answering my many questions.
Good
Dr Sundaresh is amazing. I feel heard and validated when speaking with him. He addresses all possible options for treatment and gives me enough information to make the best choices for my care.
I am still pending bloodwork that has been in the system for a week with no communication to be. But have otherwise had a great experience.
Absolutely would recommend Facility ane professional staff
Very skilled practitioner with a sense of humor

The Dr rushed through my appt. I wasn't asked if I had any questions and labs that were ordered I have no idea what he is looking for. I was told to bring all my supplements to visit he never looked at them. He did take time and discovered that my bone density tests were done on wrong wrist. He also said he would like me to have my medication by infusion and explained that. I left visit without really knowing what next step would be.
Good
What a wonderful mix of empathy and knowledge
Dr. Sundaresan was very through. He took time to explain everything clearly. He listened, and answered all of my questions. He put me at ease about my condition, and treatment options.
Dr. Vishnu Sundaresh is a beyond excellent endocrinologist and doctor! He listened to all my questions, explained everything clearly, explained and showed me what he was doing in the exam, has a wonderful bedside manner and was patient, kind, thoughtful, and discussed with me a plan for my health and what to do if any issues arose! Thank you for having such an incredibly superb medical professional like Dr. Sundaresh as part of the U of U Health Team! Because of Dr. Sundaresh, I am healthier than I was three years ago and extremely pleased with my health care at U of U Health! Please express my gratitude to Dr. Sundaresh for his beyond excellent medical care!
Excellent
Dr. Sandrush is a deeply caring and highly professional doctor. He truly goes out of his way to take care of his patients. He is an asset to the U.
My impression of yhe doctor was excellent.
Dr and staff was great. Dr was great reviewing test results with me
Dr. Sundaresh is very caring, understands my concerns and is supportive of my choices. He is thorough, investigates all possibilities to determine needs and best course of treatment.
These weren't really applicable. It wasn't necessary to make any decisions. Treatments have already been established. However, I would definitely recommend the care provider.
Very impressed with Dr. Sundaresh. He looked closely at previous testing, explained his thoughts clearly with us and all f/u tests made sense. He also just had a kind, calm demeanor.
The staff are wonderful. The medical care is such I live 4 hours away and I ha e stayed with my U ofU medical doctors.
Both times I've seen him, he didn't want to hear from me. Instead, he based his treatment on information in the computer. Then, he talked at me. That information was helpful, but I felt like I had to elbow my way into the conversation to voice my concerns. He would still often interrupt me. His main concern seemed to be to move through the appointment as quickly as possible.
Excellent physician, I come all the way from Idaho Falls Idaho because I feel that is the excellence of care that I can't with him. Appreciation him more than words can say.

Dr. Sundaresh is great. I was also seen by a resident who was very nice and showed concern for all of my health issues/questions.
He is an excellent doctor.
I would highly recommend Dr Sundaresh. He's very nice and was very patient when answering my questions.
I have already recommend my physician to another friend who has hypothyroidism.
Dr. Sundaresh has really helped me with several health problems. He includes me in his thought process and decisions about my health
Dr Sundaresh truly listens and provides guidance and feedback in an empathetic and understanding manner. He was dedicated to following up with me in a timely fashion and included my thoughts into the treatment plan.
Dr. Sundaresh is the best! He is kind, thorough, and very knowledgeable.

A fantastic doctor, and human.
Dr. Sundaresh has always been a very caring doctor. I appreciate his time and concern. I will forevermore be grateful that he put me on the drug Tymlos that is ameliorating my severe osteoporosis.
i appreciate the nudge to do daily exercises given the strains COVID has put on gym classes and facilities.

Dr. Sundaresh listened to my concerns and provided great feedback. He always provides great service going above expectations.
doctor is very professional, informative, caring,and encouraging .
sometimes I have a hard time understanding him, he's very patient and we work through it together.
lab work was taken last Wednesday and have had results for a week with no phone call. I have emailed through MyChart and I have called and left a message about my results and I still have not heard back.
The phone call was good and helpful
good
Dr. Sundaresh is a skilled and pleasant provider. On this visit, as on the last visit, he did not seem to have any idea of the current state of my health. It's complicated and I've had several events this past year that should be considered in any treatment going forward, including many medications and changes to medication. It seemed that Dr. Sundaresh had not looked at my record until he walked into the room. The visit was pretty much pointless. Thankfully, I am also being followed by Rheumatology and feel confident that they can assist with osteoporosis issues along with everything else.
Dr. Sundaresh is absolutely wonderful. I get very anxious seeing new doctors, but within seconds of meeting him & talking, I was at ease.
Good Information
The staff at this facility is amazing.
I have never had a more excellent Doctor Who was so prepared with the knowledge about my case and his plans for me that all my questions were answered before I even got a chance to ask them. He is absolutely amazing!
good
Dr. Sundaresh is very caring and personable. He listens to your concerns patiently and explains all you need to know and also make you feel comfortable about the situation. He's very knowledgeable and knows what he's doing. He did the fine needle aspiration biopsy procedure on my Thyroid and he did a wonderful job. I highly recommend him.
complete open discussion of reasoning behind treatment
Dr. Sundaresh is always concerned, even with my overall health and mental health.
good
There was no discussion regarding what to expect with surgery, recovery time, long-term care/treatment, medications I may need to take. None of that was discussed. I'm guessing I'll learn that from the surgical team...whenever they finally contact me.
Dr. Sundaresh very friendly and professional.
It was a great visit for answering questions and explaining things during the appointment. I really like this about my doctor and I would recommend him.
Dr Sundaresh is the best. He takes the time to listen and have a meaningful conversation.
I like Dr. Sunderesh. He seems knowledgable, listens to my concerns, and answers my questions.
Dr. Sundaresh was awesome! He explained things, was patient, had a great bedside manner, seemed to genuinely care
The doctor did all of these things. I greatly appreciated all of it!
Listened to hear, talked and explained thoroughly and helped plan for the future. didn't follow up with a phone call as he said he would though.
all excellently handled
Dr Sundaresh is outstanding!
Dr. Sandaresh was kind enough to see me in person during this Covid-19 pandemic and limited contact with patients as I was in the clinic for a DEXA scan already. During the evaluation of the results he noticed the omission of a fracture in the calculation and tracked down the information for him to make an accurate assessment of my fracture risk.
very knowledgeable and caring doctor
good
excellent provider...
Dr. Sundaresh is excellent. I always recommend him.
new experience for me trouble with me conecting
He listened to all my concerns and explains things to me in a way I understood!
excellent
excellent care from this physician
He answered the questions we had before we even asked them. he is very smart and knowledgeable of the medical issue I had.
Dr Sunderash listens to my concerns and makes meaningful recommendations. He is the best.
I am still a bit unclear as to whether my treatment options (Forteo and Tymbos) are 2 separate options or would be used in conjunction (at the same time). Also these are apparently specialty medications and cannot be filled by my local CVS. Until prior authorization is given, I have no idea how much they will cost.
waiting on tests
my actual appointment was with dr German, i ended up seeing both dr. sunduresh and her, i was glad he came in because after the 2 minutes she spent with me i questioned whether she knew what she was doing
