"Dr Jones is an awesome doctor. He is an effective communicator. He saved my life, literally. However, the new location- old mill- is more frustrating. The wait time doubled and it seems more disorganized. I go to my annual visit and they never send through my updated prescription. I also manage my blood draws. Because of the quality care I have received from Dr. Jones, I will continue as a patient, but be prepared for a long wait and incomplete management of your needs from the office."
"The Drs and staff are very attentive and caring. Dr Maxwell has explained every detail so we understand procedures and results. There may be some delay in getting an appointment, but this just means they are good at what they do."
"Dr. Miller is a very kind, professional, understanding physician who sincerely listens to and cares for his patients. He's extremely knowledgeable about conditions that effect the esophagus and was able to help me with a difficult issue. I would highly recommend Dr Brien Miller!!"
"This office of Utah Gastro and its doctors are amazing. I had a horrific experience with the St Marks office, terrible, but this office and its staff and doctors were so friendly and accommodating and their communication with me has been wonderful"
"Front office staff was helpful and friendly. I was taken back and seen quickly. Abbie is always very patient and informative. She takes her time to listen and then explains things in a way that is easy to understand. Highly recommend this facility!"
"Dr. Fenton is a special doctor. He is thorough, kind, funny & patient. We will be forever clients. His bedside manner is excellent. Maybe the U of U medical school could borrow him to teach medical students how to effectively interact, inform & reassure patients."
"Dr. Krishnamurthy is amazing I travel an hour to see her even though there are gastroenterologist closer to me. I wouldn't see another doctor if I can help it!"
"My visit was brief and to the point. My doctor, Dr. Bridge, showed up completely informed, having reviewed all my tests from multiple providers in detail and pulling everything together into a clear plan of action. I wish that I was getting this kind of patient focus and quality from my other providers."
"Dr. Jones and his M.A. Janet are simply first-rate. Dr. Jones has helped me in managing Crohn's Disease for several years, and he's been consistently knowledgeable (extremely well versed on menu of options including capabilities of various biologics), thoughtful, careful and caring in taking the time my visits require. That's true whether the visit is routine, for monitoring, or for a colonoscopy. He's always mild mannered, composed, and if he doesn't know something he's the first to call a colleague or other source that does. Sometimes he does relevant research after a visit. Janet seems cut from the same cloth. She, too, is careful, comprehensive and friendly in our interactions. I'm lucky to have them."
"The staff were friendly and our PA was very knowledgeable and helpful in discussing my wife’s options for testing. She offered all options but did not try to influence or pressure her in any specific direction. She helped us put in a request for follow up from the diagnostic center and we are awaiting their call."
"We had a urgent care issue that this office was able to accommodate quickly, including getting a procedure booked the same week. Staff & physicians are very caring and professional!"
"The staff is so friendly and kind. The medical assistant Shelby is so funny kind and friendly. The doctor himself is awesome, funny friendly and very kind. So down to earth!"
"I been seeing Dr Frech for at least 15 years. Hands down, he is the finest gastrointestinal physician I have ever known (that says a lot because I’m a nurse). It is apparently obvious he is passionate about his field of work. I enjoy working with physicians who love what they do and who get energized by the daily events of helping others. His compassion, wholistic approach to care, and gentle professional bedside manner are exemplary. He possesses a deep understanding of all gastrointestinal conditions and their interplay with the body’s organ systems. Being a keenly perceptive physician, he is exceptionally skilled in motivating his patients to take command of their own health and make the necessary changes for optimal wellbeing. He relentlessly instills hope and a “can do” attitude and has seen me through a multitude of complex and unique circumstances which required customized screening protocols and treatment plans. By managing my upper endoscopies and colonoscopies, he has literally spared me of cancer. Before the Covid pandemic, I had emergency surgery and my primary care physician relocated. Upon request, he filled in a critical gap in care and ordered some vital labs and a diagnostic scan while staying within the confines of his scope of practice. Unfortunately, my issues have continued to fester and this key information regarding the sequence of events has been highly valuable to my other specialists. Dr Frech has a quintessential combination of gifted intelligence and a high moral code which transcends into feeling safe and receiving extraordinary quality care. Words are not enough to describe how much I admire Dr Frech as a world class physician who genuinely cares and who has a passion to prevent and alleviate any unnecessary suffering in the world."
"Front desk very professional, and kind. Lorna was wonderful. I thought I had researched everything about my condition, but left the appointment feeling much more informed, and empowered."
"Dr. Frech is helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable. I especially liked that he clearly had his priorities straight and was visibly concerned primarily with my well-being."
"I have been seeing one of the doctors here for almost 20 years. This is a great clinic, and they have some amazing doctors. I have refered people here for a long time. I highly recommend this clinic if you have gastrointestinal needs."
"I’ve been a patient of this office for many years, but my practitioners have left and I have had to begin with a new physician. Dr. Pedersen was very pleasant and had several recommendations on how to proceed. I left feeling hopeful that these tests would bring answers. And my entire time in the office was under 45 minutes which is a win to me."
"Utah Gastroenterology is not only a very responsive and informative organization but the staff are really on the money. They know their stuff! Thanks for a great experience."
"With new symptoms coming to light, I was anxious to see someone rather quickly, preferably before we were scheduled to leave on vacation. Not only was I seen, but the prescription I was given greatly reduced my symptoms before we even packed. Yes there needs to be follow up care, but I am very confident in the doctors and staff at Utah Gastroenterology."
"Had a great consultation with Dr. Maxwell. He was thoughtful and caring while addressing my concerns. I never felt rushed and left with a sense of confidence in Dr. Maxwell as well as the other staff in the office."
"Dr Siddoway is awesome and his staff is very kind and professional. I've been seeing him for about 15 years. I would highly recommend him and UT Gastro."
"Dr Batista was great. Very knowledgeable and to the point. He is helping me figure out exactly what is going on so I can feel better and not let my issue effect my life anymore than it has. His assistant was also great- she was kind snd helpful and proficient."
"Dr.Frech and his associates at Utah gastroenterology you are so professional and helpful in understanding what or if you have problems it’s almost like they are family. I would recommend them to everyone!"
"I was greeted by a friendly and efficient receptionist . I only waited 5 minutes in the waiting area and only 5 minutes in the exam room. The nurse who accompanied me to the room was also very friendly. Dr. Krishnamurthy is a lovely woman who listened to my concerns, took them seriously and respected my privacy. She thoroughly answered my questions and reviewed my options. In the current healthcare system which tends to rush visits I am pleased with this positive experience. Leslie H"
"Dr Boschert listens and throughly looks at everything so he doesn’t miss something. He has good bed side manors and is willing to take all the time that is needed with his patients."

"Dr. Bridge is a very caring physician. He takes time to make certain you understand everything he is telling you. As well as making sure all of your questions are answered."
"I arrived 5 min early as requested and was taken to the exam room within minutes. They are always prompt. Brien Miller is a wonderful doctor. He's thorough, answered all my questions and took time to explain things. I truly trust and appreciate him."
"Dr Maxwell, his nurse, and all the staff at Utah Gastroenterology have been very kind and caring. Dr Maxwell takes time to explain everything and to answer all my questions. I would recommend Dr. Maxwell to anyone!"

"Dr kirschnermurphy is professional and kind. My appointments are always quickly filled, and the time waiting in the lobby room is only a few minutes at most."
"Dr Trowbridge is great. He listens to your issues and comes up with solutions that suit your needs. And in a specialty that can be uncomfortable, he makes you feel at ease."
"Dr Harmston was very informative, personal and action oriented—all very important and often lacking in healthcare! I clearly see why someone referred him and will do the same as opportunities arise."

He is amazing and if you need a good doctor for whatever reason gastroenterology Department I'm telling you dr. Fenton is the best!!"
"The doctors here have taking wonderful care of me over the years. The office staff has always been professional, courteous & very helpful. I appreciate my interactions with Dr. Frech and feel his genuine concern for me as his patient"
"I have been seeing Dr.Boschert at Utah Gastroenterology for 15 or 16 years. From the very first visit I was comfortable with Utah Gastroenterology. Dr. Boschert listens to all my concerns and questions and explains everything in layman's terms. The care I have received from Utah Gastroenterology has been second to none and I will continue to use their services in the future. I highly recommend anyone who might be dealing with any diseases that they specialize in treating to make an appointment. I highly recommend Utah Gastroenterology."
"Judy, at the front desk, is so pleasant! I did not have to wait in the lobby very long. The MA, JT I think was his name, was also very pleasant and thorough. Melissa the PA is so sweet, helpful and knowledgeable. She did a good job calming a worried mom‘s fears. I love everyone that I had contact with. Thank you!"
"Dr. Frech has been my gastroenterologist for years now. He's excellent in every way. I trust him completely. The staff at Utah Gastroenterology is also great."
"Dr is great. Staff is great. Why is a review needed. With your insurance you either have to go here or can't go here. If your lucky you can go here. The US healthcare system is a racket. It's a joke. Universal health care for all!"
"I have been seeing Dr Harmston for years now and absolutely love him. He takes his time, he listens to yours concerns, he is very knowledgeable and he is very kind. I have to have procedures done with him every 3 years and he is wonderful and I trust him completely, they have all gone great! This week I had to see his P.A. because it was sort-of urgent and Dr Harmston was booked out quite a ways. I really liked her also. (I’m sorry to say I don’t remember her name). Very kind, listened to my concerns, and took my history into consideration when deciding how to move forward. If your looking for great gastro doctors, this is the place!!!"
"I have trusted my life to Dr. Frech and Jessica. Through their knowledge and dedication to patient wellness, I have regained a path to a longer, healthier, happier life."
"Dr Roger Siddoway spent the better part of an hour in a private consultation explaining in detail my prognosis. We came to a suitable solution for both of us. Very impressed with him!! Highly recommend using his skills if needed."
"Dr Krishnamurthy was amazing! She took time to go over all my test results and answer my questions. She provided a treatment plan that was well laid out and clear."
"I have been coming to Utah Gastroenterology for 15 years and to say I feel blessed for such amazing care is an understatement. Dr. Harmston has always been personable, knowledgeable and caring. He’s always taken exceptional care of me whether it’s a simple office visit, or a procedure. His nurse, Becky, is equally wonderful. Even in the couple minutes she’s with you, you can tell she cares and values her work. The receptionists are always caring and efficient. I know when I come here I will see kind faces and genuine care for my health and that feeling has never wavered through the years. They are exceptional, always!"
"I loved working with Doctor Moore. He was so fast and efficient. He also explained everything so well and was always very kind about it. I would highly suggest going here!"
"This is Barry Richards, Diane's spouse, the recipient of Dr. Fenton's MOST EXCELLENT service, as ALWAYS, on February 19th.

"I had the best experience with Dr. Chaya Krishnamurthy. She was extremely personable and took the time to listen, which I feel is very rare. Her willingness to help me figure out the root problem, instead of shoving a bunch of medications to mask the problem, really spoke to me. Best gastro doc I've seen by far. Thanks Dr. Chaya! :)"
"I was on time - the staff were on time and took me right back. I only waited a few minutes for my doctor (Dr. Edward Frech) to come in and meet with me. Everyone with whom I came in contact was very pleasant and professional. When our bodies have problems, there are usually not immediate answers. I did, however, leave the office feeling heard, understood and believed - all very important to me. Thank you! 🌿"
"I saw Dr. Moore, and I need to admit that majority of Doctors don't take their time to listen and understand the patients situation or concerns. I am very happy with the professionalism and his passion to help me with my concerns. He made me feel very comfortable explaining my symptoms. Thank you Doctor Moore!!"
"Very happy with staff. Dr Bridge was so kind and listened carefully to my past medical history. Of course it helped that we are both from Nebraska. 👍😊. C Hamilton"

"I have been a patient at UT Gastroenterology (UG) for a number of years and the staff are always professional, courteous, and attend to my needs promptly. Dr. Harmston is very knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely cares about my welfare. Their facility for performing procedures such as colonoscopies, which is on the same floor as their office and exam rooms, is convenient, comfortable, and the staff makes the patient very comfortable before, during, and after the procedure. Based on the care I have received as a long-term patient, I recommend UG without any reservations."

"My wait time was about 10 minutes. My wait time in the exam room was about 3 minutes. The PA explained what they were going to do for my next visit and she answered all my questions and concerns, and the staff was professional and pleasant."
"I am very glad that someone referred me with these guys, they were very professional and very helpful for the problems that I had, definitely I will recommend them, thank you..."
"Met with Blair. She was very knowledgeable and explained matters thoroughly. My situation is not resolved, but she has set things in motion. I am grateful."
"Quality professionals at this establishment. On time with appointments, listening to patient's concerns seemed a top priority. Would recommend this office to anyone."
"I have seen Dr Pedersen at the Gastroenterology department at St Mark's Dr Pedersen is great. He always takes the time to explain everything and has done a great job taking care of my problem."

"I feel like so far they are taking me seriously, and they were kind, concerned and helpful. They got me scheduled to figure out what was wrong and listened to what I had to say during my first appointment. So far everyone has been kind, caring and helpful."
"They were able to get me in quicker than any other GI provider I had called. I was impressed with the connection made from a visit I had 3 years ago and the seamless continuation of treatment and help from Dr. Boschert."

"Dr Bown is wonderful. Took plenty of time to listen and was compassionate and understanding. The wait in the waiting room was a bit long, but they explained it was due to having to enter in all my information from the paperwork completed. I felt like my time with Dr Bown made up for the long wait; I did not feel he rushed the visit at all."
"Utah Gastroenterology has been a real like saver for me. There isn't a score high enough to rate Utah Gastroenterology. I look forward to working with Utah Gastroenterology in the future completely."
"It has been several years since I came to this clinic with my granddaughter who had pancreatitis. As her doctor asked about family medical histories. As l helped my granddaughter explain all the aspects of that her doctor asked me how long since I had been followed for my liver disorder. When I told him he asked me to make an appointment with him. From that day l have been working with the clinic for all kinds of tests and my specific problem was discovered. l am grateful to the two doctors l've seen and the staff for their patient, caring treatment. l would never go anywhere else."
"Dr. Siddoway is the greatest. Also the staff and the nurse's and everybody is very very attentive and just great people. I would totally recommend this facility. Thank you so much Dr. Siddoway!😊"

"I had a terrific experience today with Dr Maxwell and the staff, nurses and doctors at Wasatch Endoscopy and Colonoscopy. For procedures that aren’t necessarily fun to prep for, I had a great experience. From my nurses to Dr Maxwell. He was friendly and informative. He came back to see me after the procedure to explain what he found and his recommendations. Definitely a 5 star day!"
"I would recommend Utah Gastroenterology to anyone they were fast friendly and professional and followed up with a phone call later that day as well as the following day."
"I have been a patient at Utah Gastroenterolgy for almost 19 years. I have always had very positive experiences with them. The drs are very knowledgeable and they don’t make you sit and wait to eat in to see them. The last time I was there I didn’t even get my paperwork filled out and sit down before they called me back to see the dr. I originally had dr joseph who has sadly retired but I am seeing dr wills now and I am very happy with him. He is very knowledgeable and has made sure he is thorough. When I was there the last time I saw the PA Blair! She is absolutely amazing! Friendly, smart and very attentive. I spent 7 hours in the er at imc and they sent me away saying we don’t know what’s wrong so take this medicine and see your dr. This was after a cat scan of my stomach and their answer pain medication and with the stomach pain I was in they gave me medicine they said was for migraines. Then corrected themselves and said oh it works for migraines and your stomach. Needless to say I saw Blair at Utah Gastroenterolgy and she knew exactly what was wrong and gave my husband and I her full attention and explains exactly what the cat scan showed and how to fix it. I will request Blair anytime I go there I was so impressed!. Thank you! They are the best!"
"I do not enjoy any medical procedure BUT the staff at Utah Gastroenterolgy make the experience as pleasant as possible. Dr. Bown is the best. Always, calm and professional. When all is said and done, I am grateful for this potentially life saving procedure. Thanks everyone. See you in 2022."

"Dr Peterson is absolutely the best along with his PA. My bloating belly took me in last week, he set up a 2-week noninvasive plan. I appreciate that he starts with a simpler option then has other options ready if the first one is not effective."
"Always a great experience, whether I'm seeing Dr. Fenton or an MA. I don't want to go anywhere else. They take the time to go over you questions and they know their stuff."
"The front office was great to work with and very helpful at getting me in asap. Dr Bown was thorough and professional during my visit and explained the procedure process and answered all my questions and he took the time to do so."
"100% Quality Care. Start to finish. Everyone was very professional and personable. They took the time to talk about my procedure with me and were great after it was over."
"I recently had a colonoscopy at Utah Gastroenterology. I was not looking forward to it but knew it needed to be done. The whole experience turned out to be much better than I had anticipated. Everyone was so kind and professional. The whole procedure went very smoothly from the prep day to the recovery. They kept us informed and updated as to what we needed to do. My husband/driver was also very impressed. He is due for his next colonoscopy and wants to change from the facility where he had his last colonoscopy to Utah Gastroenterology."
"Dr Brien Miller is wonderful; he is compassionate, caring and efficient. I feel certain he sees me as a “whole” person and not just another procedure. His staff has been very caring as well. A special note of thanks to Jody. She always does her best to assist me with solutions to issues that arise. The procedures are not fun but I am assured I am in good capable hands. Diane Rosowsky"

"Everyone at Utah Gastroenterology were very courteous and kind. They treated me right, so after two times already, I will probably go back in 5 years for another visit (once I forget about drinking that yucky stuff)."
"100% Quality Care. Start to finish. Everyone was very professional and personable. They took the time to talk about my procedure with me and were great after it was over."
"I can't recommend Dr Maxwell enough. He really takes the time to sit with you and understand what is going on. He'll also take the time to explain possibilities and treatment programs. Past doctors have had me come in, wait 45 minutes, walk in without looking at me and just write a new prescription. Dr Maxwell will read through your history with you and try to come up with a solution. The staff are also friendly and helpful. My only complaint is because of the reputation here they're always booked months in advance."
"This was my first visit to Utah Gastroenterology and I was very impressed with everyone that participated in my procedure. All of the staff were extremely professional, made me feel at ease and comfortable. I'd highly recommend them."
"Every step I went through I was met with very warm and helpful people. If you have to go through something that can be unnerving, it's mice to have someone that cares to help you understand it and make your way through it. I fond everyone that I came in contact with here to be just that, very warm and helpful."
"Dr C. Maxwell is someone who completely understands his specialty. His compassion and willingness to 'look beyond the obvious' is the very thing that is giving me back my life as I once knew it. I recommend him to infinity and beyond!"
"Dr Peter Fenton is a very professional and kind. He answers all my questions and I feel like my health issues are important to him.I would recommend him to family and friends."
"Dr. Petersen is Excellent. I went to him with serious problems. I was always feeling sick. I had several Drs try all sorts of stuff, some of what was costly and unbenefitial in helping me. After visiting with him, having some blood tests done and looking at the information from previous Drs. He put me on some medications, and told me to see him again in 6 months for a review. I was amazed how things changed for me. Would recommend him to anyone with gastrointestinal problems. In fact have already done just that to a few family members."
"I have been a patient for 5 years now and I love my doctor. You're always willing to make adjustments when I have concerns about some things that are going on with my health"
"I see Dr. Brett Doxey and his PA Annie . They are the best! He is brilliant and has a brilliant, well trained staff. They make sure you understand the treatment plan and follow up. If you want to get to the bottom of your GI issues, this is the place to come."
"Dr Frech has been my gastroenterologist for about 15 years and has been able to complete my colonoscopies under circumstances when my previous Dr was unable to. Dr Frech confirmed my diagnosis of diverticular disease and helped me through occasional bouts of diverticulitis and on one occasion removed several polyps. He is very efficient but complete and personable in answering questions and considering details of my condition. I'd recommend him highly to any one in need of gastroenterological services."
"I have been going to UG for years. Dr. Batista has been a wonderful doctor. My last visit I saw Amy and really liked her too. All staff I've dealt with have been terrific. I've been there for endoscopies, colonoscopy and maintenance visits. They are very professional and concerned about their patients. I would highly recommend them."
"I honestly can’t say enough good about my experiences here! I see Dr. Maxwell and he is amazing to work with. He takes the time to listen to my problems, questions and concerns and he answers/explains things in a way I am able to understand. He takes notes during our appointments so he remembers each what we talked about each appointment. He truly cares about his patients!"
"I highly recommend Dr. Trowbridge and his staff. He is incredibly kind, caring, and knowledgeable. He has ensured at everything step that I understand and that I am comfortable."

"Very professional office Front office staff was kind and courteous as well as efficient. Preop staff was kind and caring. Dr. Bown was kind, caring and very informative. He answered all of my questions. This was my first visit there and I was nervous but I will definitely go there for continuing care and refer my friends there. Thank you so much!"
"My appointment was with Annie Banz, PA-C. Initially my thoughts were that I wanted to meet with a doctor and not "just" a Physician Assistant. She was fantastic! Very engaged and interested in any symptoms I have or think I have. She listened to what I had to say about being on an acid controller for over 25 years. She checked on multiple options and when the only acid controller that works for me was not on the approved list Utah Gastro was able to get them to approve Dexilant. Super happy with my experience."
"My wife and I have been patients of Dr. Roger Siddoway at Utah Gastroenterology for several years. We have been very pleased with Dr. Siddoway and with the staff. Would highly recommend."
"The whole staff were helpful and walked me through the process, Dr. Bown explained the procedure, made sure I was comfortable. He was there to tell me how everything went and any concerns there might have been. TY"
"I got excellent care at Utah Gastroenterology. I felt the practitioner spent plenty of time with me, listened to my concerns, gave me advice on what medical procedures I needed next and how to handle my medical problems until I could get a full diagnosis following tests. She explained what could be wrong and set my mind at ease."
"Utah"s Gastroenterology is very professional on how they handle things. The doctors are very nice and explain things very will and always ask if you have any questions too. I am very happy with them."
"the nurses do the best job at making you feel comfortable. the doctors are great and the front desk people are very polite. this place knows how to take care of their patients. they made a not so pleasant procedure into a pleasant day."

"Both my Mom and I have been seen by Abbie Siebanhaar, PA-C and both were extremely happy with the care. She was very personable while maintaining professionalism. She is very knowledgeable and we both feel she has our best interest at heart."
"I would recommend Utah Gastroenterology to anyone. I especially like Dr. Frech. He is knowledgeable, seems interested in ME, and doesn't talk down to me. I have studied human anatomy, so it is easy to understand what he tells me. I don't know the other doctors but Dr. Frech is the best GI doctor I have ever seen!"
"I received wonderful care for my colonoscopy from Dr. Bown and staff. He was referred to me by a family member who ALSO received wonderful care for an endoscopy as well as colonoscopy. I would encourage people to keep.up on these important procedures! They can be life-saving on so many instances! Thanks for taking such good care ofus, Utah Gastroenterology!"

I know the quality of care from the moment I reach the office until my discharge is comfortable, professional.

The receptionist to Dr. Bown share this marvelous attitude toward me as a person as well as a patient at this facility. I have complete confidence in Utah Gastroenterology and highly recommend them to any person requiring their services."
"My Wife and I have been with Dr, Bown for almost 15 years. Not only is he an outstanding Doctor, he and his staff are always show us concern and courtesy for our needs. The best testimonial is that my primary physciam recommended him as the doctor he uses"
"My first time there and everyone except one lady who checked me out was super nice. I was greeted with a nice smile at the front desk and did not have to wait. Abbey was wonderful."
"Dr. Christopher Maxwell has the most down to earth demeanor so not typical of the MD community. His attention to my explanation of symptoms showed compassion and of course he efficiently diagnosed. The office is great too. Very friendly staff from paperwork to leading me to the Dr. Office."
"Working with Blair has been absolutely life changing. Literally. She pickedup on liver problems that all other drs had missed. Fortunately, I haven't had any issues with their staff. It's been smooth sailing this far."

"My experience at the Riverside Drive, St. George Utah Gastroenterology Clinic was a very good one. The office is professional and Dr. Siddoway and his staff were the best. They made me feel comfortable in an uncomfortable situation. Dr. Siddoway was thorough in his assessment of my situation because he cares about his patients' well being."
"Dr. Frech at Utah Gastroenteroloy is a very competent and caring physician. In our family we have had some difficult health issues, but he is tenacious about analyzing symptoms and problem solving our health concerns. With a plan in place and follow up monitoring, we finally have some answers."
"Never had a negative experience, staff is always friendly doctors have excellent bedside manner and try to stay knowledgeable about new technologies, procedures and diagnosis."
"Dr. Frech and his staff made my visit to Utah Gastroenterology as pleasant an experience as one can have when concerned about a potentially frightening disease. Dr. Frech spent all the time I needed to be reassured that he would be my advocate in this discovery process. He thoroughly explained everything needed to create a plan of care, summarized his findings in my accessible chart and then called me personally to address my questions after my procedure was complete. He gets an A+ from a person who is not easily impressed with healthcare!"
"I had a very exceptional experience with Utah Gastroenterology a few months ago when I had my colonoscopy and again recently when I had an appointment with the MA inoffice. Those who have cared for me have shown exceptional caring and thoughtful consideration and have offered helpful solutions to my issues."
"I went in for a colonoscopy. The morning of, the cleansing treatment didn't work. Dr Woerlein sent me home with 12 packets of laxatives with another appointment @ 3:30. I appreciated that I was able to return that same day. I didn't want to start that treatment again another day. The employees were all very friendly and helpful."
"Very, very positive experience. The office was very active in sending reminders. When I arrived they were friendly and cordial. Throughout my visit I was treated very well and efficiently. The Doctor shower a great knowledge of my condition and history, and explained my condition as well as the action we can take to reduce its effects on my life. I must say again that the staff from reception to the nurse, Doctor, and the lab technician who drew my blood were excellent. The office was clean and comfortable. They could put some lazy boy chairs in the waiting room thought. SARCASM."

His knowledge combined with his respectful manner were outstanding and his recommendations on the mark. Without hesitation, I will continue to make appointments with Dr. Harmston of Utah Gastroenterology."
"I had suffered recurring problems for 16 years following the removal of my Gallbladder. It finally became unbearable. My family physician referred me to Dr. Siddoway at Utah Gastroenterology in St. George. The first doctor to search for a better solution. He referred to a surgical specialist in Salt Lake City. I had a very major surgery to correct the internal problems and am recovering nicely. I can't thank Dr. Siddoway enough for listening to my saga, taking the time to research options, and finding a surgeon with the right set of skill to do the surgery. DH, Hurricane, Utah"
"I was very pleased with the customer service as well as the treatment from them. My procedute was scheduled for 9:30 but they asked me to be there at 9:00. I thought it was to go over the paperwork they had sent me in the mail. I barely sat down & they called me back to begin the prep. Everyone was very thorough in explaining the process & I looked at the clock just before my short ‘nap’ & it was 9:28. Right on time. Truly a well-oiled machine."
"Although a colonoscopy is one of those things you'd rather not do, it CAN reveal information that could be a matter of life and death...and also can give peace of mind. Thanks Utah Gastroenterology in St. George for a thorough explanation and efficient preliminary procedure with detailed information. The staff was pleasant and professional and the summary of the procedure was also thorough and informative and was presented to us at the conclusion of the procedure."

I appreciated his attention to detail and reassurance to manage my treatment. I have referred several people to this clinic and will continue to do so."

Everyone from their front office, to their surgery schedulers, to their doctors are all professional and I highly recommend them to anyone in need of an esophageal office! Thank you"
"Great Medical center, I like how they keep you updated on your upcoming appointments. Been going to Dr. Wills for years and there is none better than him and his nurse Kristine, everybody is knowledgable and effeciante, again Dr. Wills is the best."
"I had let my fears keep me from getting a routine colonoscopy for far too long. Finally made the appointment and got it done. Would recommend Utah Gastro in St George UT to anyone. They were able to work with my schedule to get me in in a timely manner. Check in was a breeze, the facility was clean, warm and inviting. Dr. Bown came in pre-anesthesia to discuss procedure and ask if I had any questions or concerns. I don't remember anything after my first few drops of anesthesia until I was being told by the recovery nurse 'Ok, you're all done. You can get dressed now.' Was sent home with photos and a report with the results of the scan. It was a truly positive experience and I'm grateful to all the staff for their professionalism and help."
"Wow! Amazing experience with both the PA and the Physician. I am experiencing a lot of discomfort and was taking care of immediately. Tests ran, communication and follow up has been wonderful. THANK YOU!"

"Very friendly staff. I was seen by Abbie, a physician assistant who was knowledgeable and knew what she was talking about. Overall experience was good.. I'd recommend them to family and friends."
"I asked Dr. Batista and his PA Abbie for a second opinion on a diagnosis. They were fantastic at getting me in, reviewing my results and even ordered additional testing they felt necessary after my other doc performed other tests. I trust their expertise and am very impressed with their willingness to help me."
"Both staff and Dr.s were friendly, easy to talk to and very helpful. Procedure went very well. The results were explained and questions answered. Highly recommend."
"I just had a colonoscopy in November and it was a pleasant experience. The doctor and anesthesiologist even played me Beetles music to give me a relaxed and comfortable situation. It was painless and quick and I got my results before I left the office. They were very thorough to make sure I understood the procedure and it was a pleasant experience unlike what you hear horror stories about. I would definitely recommend Utah Gastroenterology to my family and friends and associates. The fantastic news is I got a clean bill of health and don't need to repeat this procedure for another 10 years. That's enough to make anyone's day. Roberta"
"I found the staff to be very accommodating. They worked me in to see Dr Trowbridge quickly when I didn't have an appointment. Dr Trowbridge is the best. He spent a great deal of time with me getting my history, chief complaint, treatment plan and options moving forward. I highly recommend him to anyone who needs a GI"
"Utah Gastro is an excellent place to go when their services are needed. From top to bottom the entire group is working to make your needs a priority and to find results to your issues no matter how small or large they may be. They have made a major difference in my daily life."
"Dr Krishnamurthy is quick and to the point, but listens. I really like this office. My only complaint is all too common. Doctors do tests and when they come back normal, doctors forget why they did the test in the first place. Something is wrong. Just because the test result is normal, does not mean everything is okay. You get your standard letter with your test results mailed to you in a timely manner, but if your test results are normal, there is no follow up. You will need to call the office and do that for yourself."
"I go to St. Mark's hospital for my care & gastrenterology provides me with good feedback but I'm in pain & thankfully got a referral to someone who can help me better. Hopefully I'll be relieved of my pain."
"I was/am very impressed with the professionalism of the Clinic and all of the attending Staff. My Nurse (Debra) was gracious and put me at ease. The Clinic does important work and even though they see many patients daily, it was clear that they try to create the best environment possible. My Doctor took the time to answer our questions."
"Love the PA very good in listening to my concerns. Scheduling my procedures was smoothed but MA is awful to call back when you have questions. I had to have labs done and I had to call the MA and then didn’t get my questions answered. Same thing with additional labs called the MA to question the test that was ordered was the wrong one and still have not heard back. Overall I love the front office staff and the Doctors. MA needs to be more careful and on top of things for patients."
"Utah Gastroenterology is very well run. The staff is friendly and efficient. I walked in and felt immediately at ease. I knew they knew their business, and took immediately steps to allay any discomfort I may have had. The whole staff make an effort to put me at ease and told me every step they were taking. I would certainly go to them again should a need arise and I give them high praise for a job well done."
"I have been with Utah Gastroenterology for over 7 years, under the care of Dr. Rayburn Moore. I can honestly say that this man has saved my life. The whole team at the office is phenomenal and the communication between patient and medical staff is second to none! I highly recommend!!"
"Wonderful experience. They were thoughtful, listened carefully, didn't rush, and I feel like they understood what I was trying to communicate. I could tell they really cared about me. The recommended treatment has helped me. I highly recommend them."
"Dr. Jones is amazing. He truly cares about my well being and will do everything possible to make the treatment work with my lifestyle and schedule. Dr. Jones went out of his way to find literatures and talk to colleagues before making treatment recommendations. He is up to date on the most current treatment. I highly recommend Dr. Jones to my friends and family."
"Normally I would not want to brag about a colonoscopy but I have to say these guys were professional and even fun. Started with the nurse Darrell, he was amazing easy to talk to and made me feel at ease. Through the whole process I had several people stop and talk to me to make sure everything was going good. I appreciate the extra care that was taken by the entire staff"
"I was nervous about this appointment but they made me feel comfortable. It was a very positive experience for me. Annie is the PA that I worked with and she was the best. I have other follow up appointments with them and I have no problems going back."
"I had a egd performed by Dr. Brown and the whole process from office visit to having procedure done was very professional, and all the staff, especially Dr Bown were very nice. Would recommend these folks and will go back if the need is there."
"I was seen by Angela Banz, P.A. She was incredible! Fantastic "bedside manner", she really listened to all of my thoughts and concerns and answered my questions. I look forward to my follow-up appointment!"
"Doctor Doxey at Utah Gastroenterology is a top notch physician. He takes the time necessary and is very exacting in his workup. I was very impressed with him and the clinic."
"I love Dr Frech. He saved my life and has been very proactive in my care for 8 years. He is compassionate, very well informed, and an excellent physician."
"I can't say enough good about Utah Gastroenterology and Dr. Siddoway and all the staff. Dr. Siddoway is a brilliant physician with a witty sense of humor and a wonderful bedside manor. As a team, they simplify complicated medical issues and do so with smiles on their faces and uptone personalities. Despite the fact my grandfather was a physician, I've always suffered from "white coat paranoia". At Utah Gastroenterology my paranoia melted away minutes after walking through the door. I highly recommend Utah Gastroenterology and Dr. Siddoway to anyone in need of the type of services they provide. A. Bruce Haddrill"
"They were very professional and they answered all my questions. They were on time and everything went as planned. I would recommend this place to anyone needing a colonoscopy."

Annie Banz was an amazing physicians assistant! She was super friendly and explained everything very simply! I was very happy with my experience at this office!"
"I have crohns so i have seen a lot of GI doctors and by far DR RAY MOORE is the BEST!!! He takes all the time you need to make sure you understand and feel good about the treatment(s) he is giving you. He is VERY personable and down to earth doctor. Truly a one of a kind doctor and staff; have NEVER had one of them be rude or make u feel unwelcome (even on the phone) he has been my doctor for 3-4 years now and NEVER plan on changing again!!"
"Blair was wonderful. She made me feel comfortable from the beginning of the appointment. She took time to answer all of my questions and concerns. I definitely recommend her!"
"Had a good experience at Utah Gastroenterology - the staff were efficient, courteous and concerned with my well-being. My only complaints would be there is only one male and one female bathroom for people waiting to go back for their colonoscopies and when you've been cleaning your intestines out this can be problematic. The waiting room and holding/recovery room is freezing! The nursing staff did give me some nice warm blankets to help combat that. Overall I would highly recommend!"
"The entire Staff treated me with respect, gave the time needed and reported treatment plan and prognosis professionally. I will continue using them for my GI concerns. Thanks to everyone in the Office."
"I love Utah Gastro!!! The employees and front desk are amazing- they are extremely nice and helpful. Dr. Moore is awesome! He actually listens to your problems and concerns, and takes your input when it comes to your care. Dr. Canale is also a very kind doctor, and I would highly suggest him also.

"Dr. Robert Jones is amazing. He is smart, willing to look at all options, and communicates in a timely manner. I have a very complex gastro case. He always listens and then determines best options in moving forward to better my health. He follows up to see how I am responding to the prescribed treatment! Every patient wants their Dr. to have that personal touch that assures you they care! Dr. Robert Jones walks the walk and talks the talk. Thirty plus years of working with gastro docs and I highly recommend him!"
"If you are looking for a doctor with a great bed manner? Then look no farther. Dr. Fenton alwats remembers me. I alwsys leaving a visit knowing I'm not going to get lost in the patient pile. I'm not just a number. the office staff is resourceful and curtesy."
"I went in for a prescreening appt and later two outpatient procedures. The staff was extremely pleasant and attentive and very informative on what the plan was. Dr. Maxwell is wonderful. I was in and out. While I was there my husband ended up going to the emergency room. He was also in and out within 30 minutes!! Unbelievable I have never been out of an ER so quickly. I highly recommend this hospital and the Gastroenterology department."
"Dr. Siddoway is the best! I have been to him twice now and both times he answered all of my questions, and made me feel at ease about the procedure and has great bed side manner."

They called to ask if I could come in at an earlier date, as they had a cancellation. The staff was very professional, accommodating and caring. Dr. Woerlein was very professional and caring. He listened to my concerns, did an examination and ordered further testing. Dr. Woerlein put my concerns to rest and was very reassuring. I definitely will return as I very much liked the care I was given. I will not hesitate to refer family and friends to Dr. Woerlein and Utah Gastroenterology - St. George. Excellent Dr. And staff!"
"I visited Dr. Doxey at the Draper Office of "Foothill Clinic." He was attentive, thorough and his diagnosis and subsequent prescription was "right on the mark!" I had minimal wait time and the support staff couldn't have been better. I'd recommend Dr. Doxey to anyone!"
"Everything was very organized and employes were very nice. The procedure when very smooth and the Doctor explained what will happen & what I should expect. Chris Derrick"

They are quick to get back to me with results, new stexps, referrals and/or courses of action! I feel safe under the care and direction of this team, and would highly recommend them. Denise H"
"Dr. Harmston is excellent! He's very thorough, listens, and takes the time to discuss issues to ascertain what is the root of the problem. He offers his complete attention, which is rare in my experience; I've never felt like he's trying to hurry me out so he can move on to the next patient. He takes the time to input everything we discuss in to the computer so I don't have to repeat anything the next visit. The quality I like the most is he's open to discussion. Overall he's talented, intelligent, friendly, and a nice person. I have never had to wait long after arriving for my appointment. The staff is generally friendly at check-in. The nurse has always been kind and considerate. The downside is it is difficult to get an appointment when a new patient, or if you have to reschedule an existing appointment it can take months to get in. My only real negative is the tech that draws blood does not have a soft touch. Ouch, every time!"
"Just had a colonoscopy with Dr. Bown. Very satisfied with the procedure, office staff and especially Dr. Bown. Very thorough and complete in his explanation of the results. I would not hesitate in my recomendation."
"They are the BEST! Dr. Andrew Fedoravicious is caring and patient and spends time asking and answering all questions. He is through in his explanations and treatments. I know I am in good hands."

"Eleven years ago I had a colonoscopy in Vegas, and I said never again. A health issue necessitated that I have another one last month. My regular doc referred me to Utah Gastro, St, George. It was a completely different experience. Quick, efficient, yet I was patiently given all the information I needed before and after the procedure. A prompt follow up letter explained the biopsy finding and advised a moderate treatment. Wow. Even the prep was much easier than the first time."
"I saw Dr. Ethan and he was the most efficient and helpful Dr. that I have seen here in St. George. He listened and did his research on me and I was very impressed. The Ladies at the the front desk were very nice and helpful"

I highly recommend this gastroenterology office to those that need their type of service."
"I am new to the area and had to find all new doctors when I came here, i have had issues with my stomach, bowels for a few years so finding the right doctor is very important to me and luckily I found Dr. Woerlein and his P.A.

The Utah Gastroenterology group is confident and very accommodating. I felt comfortable, and considered myself under competent care prior, during and after the three procedures conducted. I highly recommend the Utah Gastroenterology Group."
"My wife sees Dr Wills at this location and we couldn't be more pleased with our experiences at this office. We always have good friendly staff to assist us, the wait time are minimal, and there is obvious genuine care about the well-being of the patients. We would highly recommend going here.

"I've been seeing Dr Joseph for many years and incredibly happy with my care. I feel great and appreciate the attentiveness of him and his nurse, Shauna Sherman."
"the doctors are wonderful. My doctor not only decided against doing a procedure that she felt was unnecessary, but returned my copayment to me and never charge me for the office visit. Amazing"
"Thank You All for your wonderful attention and skills in taking care of a problem that had been getting worse over 3 yrs that no one could figure out.

"I have been to Utah Gastroenterology for several different appointments and procedures. With each appointment I have been treated with the highest respect. They explain things so that I can understand them. And they answer my questions as if I'm not an idiot and should know that. They are all very nice and treat me as a person not a diagnosis. I highly recommend them for all your "gastro" needs. Great people."
"Dr Fenton really listened and came up with a plan that showed he paid attention to my issue. He is fabulous ad I would highly recommend him to family and friends."

Also the informational sheets provided were a much better source of help than any I had received from other physicians. Everybody in the office was professional and friendly."
"Very on time office. Dr. Pedersen spent a good hour explaining to me and my family about regulations regarding stool implant. He is very knowledgeable on this subject ."

"I went to the St Marks office for a consult and met with Dr Pedersen. He is a wonderful MD and I would certainly recommend them. I was able to get in the same day and everyone on the staff was kind and friendly. Dr Pedersen listened to my full story and did not rush me. He never seemed bothered about the amount of time that I was taking with him. He eased my fears and explained what they would like to do. His assistant Whitney is also very helpful and caring. You will not regret choosing to go to Utah Gastroenterology and working with Dr Pedersen!"
"I have never had such a positive experience with a doctor before. I have been having the same illness for over 10 years. The doctors at Utah Gastroenterology in St. George found the problem and within a few days I felt better than I had in years. The entire staff were helpful and kind and willing to do whatever it took to help me, which included filling out several forms to help me receive the medication I required. Thank you so much to the entire staff, Doctors, nurses and office staff! You helped to change my life. Wendy in St. George"
"I have been a patient at Utah Gastroenterology for several years . I see Dr. P.J.Pedersen, and have the utmost confidence in him. He is personable, concerned for my well being, and easy to talk to. He is very knowledgeable and professional. Even my husband is impressed with Dr. Pedersen's ability to explain complicated medical problems easily, so that we can understand what is happening inside my body and why it is behaving the way it is. I wouldn't go to anyone else. Yvonne Hagen"

Each employee that I encountered was kind, courteous, and very knowledgeable. The nurses and Dr. Bown explained the procedure and answered my questions in terms that were easily understood and sometimes humorous. They were all very reassuring.
