It can be a wait to get in but even then if it’s serious they will make arrangements to take care of you."

The front desk staff makes it easy to schedule. His medical assistant makes us feel comfortable and calm!!!"

"Dr. Bridge is excellent. He listened to my concerns and addressed everything. His staff, both in the office and at the procedure room are fabulous. So good to have such a fine team for less than a fun procedure!"
"Everybody is really great there. They're always very concerned about my well. Being and always try to get the best help that I can get. I appreciate them and they are just amazing.

"This was my first procedure with Dr Maxwell. I found him to be very professional and thorough. He takes the time to explain in detail all aspects of the what's, where's, why's and when's so I knew exactly what to expect and I understood any concerns which put me at ease."
"Our Queen. Dr. Voaklander is thee best, no competition. She's personable, knowledgeable, and she cares. If you're scouting out gastroenterologists there's truly no reason to go to anybody else. There's a reason she only has 5 stars reviews."

"Dr. Frech was a doctor I happened upon when my former gastroenterologist retired. I have been THRILLED with every visit, encounter and/or procedure with him! He has been patient, easy-to-talk-to, understanding, knowledgeable and professional! My most recent appointment proved once again, how much he cares about MY situation, as he suggested alternatives for me to try. He shows his expertise by concentrating solely on what’s happening with me! I like that! He and his staff are amazing and I would recommend them any time, any place, with any gastrointestinal procedure. THE BEST EVER!"
"She is fantastic. I have felt hopeless, lost and overwhelmed and she has made this process so much easier. She is really cares and I think she’s great at her job."

Dr. Maxwell interacts in the way I would hope every doctor did!!! He listens so sincerely, takes such good notes to refresh himself about you before your appointment, doesn’t ever feel rushed, looks at you and the situation holistically, and is kind and sincere. I’ve been abundantly grateful to have Dr. Maxwell on my health team!!!"
"An excellent experience for my initial visit. Staff was very efficient and friendly, my new provider introduced herself, asked how she could help me and then actively listened for about 10 minutes. Her insights and suggestions were appreciated and very helpful, and at the end of the visit, she asked if there was anything else she could do to help me. Those are qualities of an excellent practitioner, and in my experience are very rare these days. Highly recommend!"
"I felt very supported through the whole process. Everyone I encountered was kind and caring and very helpful. And Dr Maxwell, of course, was incredible!! He treated me so respectfully and kindly. He is a very skilled and competent m.d. and also has a really great bedside manner. I appreciate everything and highly recommend Dr Maxwell, his team and this facility!! Many thanks!!"

"Dr. Wills is a very good physician. I went through a very difficult time with an internal problem. Dr. Wills and his colleagues including Dr. Maxwell and Dr. Bridges performed a range of procedures that were totally integrated with St. Marks medical staff that enabled me to fully recover and receive solid follow-care."
"Dr. Frech is amazing. He is compassionate and really knows his stuff. If you are looking for a Gastro doctor, look no further and book an appointment with him."

"Dr Trowbridge is a stickler to detail, but he's so personable he makes you feel comfortable he makes you feel that you're the only one that matters and he does a lot of research to diagnose the proper stuff. Dr Trowbridge has literally saved my life. May God richly bless his practice and his staffand he's been a really good friend"
"Overall the procedure went very very well, from the start, when the nurse explained the process and Dr. Trowbridge visiting with me prior to the operation, then going into the operating room, and all the way to the end when I woke up. The whole thing took less than a couple of hours. Thanks"
"He has been the best Dr. for what he does. I have had Dr Mark Boschert for over 30 years. I would tell anyone to go see him if he was not retiring this summer. He will be missed very much and I don’t trust very easy."
"Dr Fenton has been my Doctor for over a decade. When I first started going to see him didn't just put me on a medication and leave it at that he told me what he wanted to do test wise and I was so miserable I said let's do it. He found what was wrong and was able to correct it with medication thru the years since there is no cure. He is such a great doctor and has a wonderful uplifting personality. I am so comfortable talking to him and I am a person who isn't comfortable talking with just any man but peter Fenton makes me feel comfortable and respected and he is so very gentle. I would definitely recommend him to any one. Thank you Doctor Fenton for all the care and support and speedy time responses to my messages thru the years I hope there will be many more to come."
"Dr. Fenton is wonderful! He has done both of my procedures over the past 10 years. He is kind, explains things well, and is quick. My late husband has him do his procedures. And now my current husband has requested him to do his coming up procedures."
"I appreciate that Dr. Fenton's office keeps track of and notifies patients of when follow ups are due. Dr Fenton himself is very pleasant, puts patients at ease, stays on schedule, and is very professional/thorough. I have no hesitation in recommending him as a provider."
"Dr. Krishnamurthy and her staff were extremely polite. I cried happy tears to finally be able to eat and take my vitamins without them getting stuck in my throat. My voice is back to normal. I have lived with this so long. Thank you so much."
"Overall a very good experience. I am seeing Ashley for my kidney disorder. She seems to actually care, is straightforward and to the point. I can't give it a 5 star review because it's hard to get a call back when I have questions. If I even get a call. That is a bit frustrating."
"It was, believe it or not, a very excellent experience!! Dr Wills and the nurses and staff were, in my humble opinion, top notch!!! I would recommend them!"
"I’ve been a patient with Dr. Jones for more than ten years. I appreciate most his professionalism and his willingness to work with my wishes, with and without anesthesia on procedures- a process that I understand complicates things for those involved. I also appreciate his communication of results and recommendations, especially considering some of the results that had to be delivered. Enjoy retirement!"
"I had a great experience. The nurses and staff are so nice and Dr. Frech was amazing. They all made a 'not so fun' procedure a good experience. I will definitely go back there next time."
"Dr. Voaklander is great! She has a calming, happy and friendly way about her that immediately put me at ease. She is also the very best GI in the valley and I'm confident in her knowlege and ability and I trust her completely."
"Wow! I didn’t have to wait in the waiting room for more than 3 minutes. They took me back and I was done with my appointment before the time that my actual appointment was."
"Attentive caring staff that helps you feel comfortable with the procedure being done. Dr. Moore was very warm, genuine, annd informative both before and after the procedure."
"Highly professional and friendly staff (and Dr Pedersen😉). Everyone knew their stuff and answered all my questions. The whole process was very smooth."

"Had a great experience at the Wasatch Colonoscopy Clinic the staff, nurses and especially Dr. Pedersen were fantastic will recommend them every chance I get."
"It was so great to work with such a wonderful group of people. My PA was very well informed and explained everything clearly . They were able to resource me out to a wonderful physical therapist. And promptly scheduled me for the procedure I needed. I would recommend them highly."
"This was my first GI procedure with Dr Voaklander. She and her wonderful staff explained everything clearly, answered my all my weird little questions and gave a chuckle or two. Next thing I knew, I was done. I have no idea why I waited so long to get in and get screened, they made it easy.. even got a warm blankie after I got into the gown. The prep was no fun, but everyone in her office was sweet and professional."
"The way the staff greeted me the minute I entered the facility, eased my worries. I'm so glad I chose west mountain endoscopy for my procedure. Everyone involved was courteous , caring and very professional. Thank you for each one of you for choosing and taking an extra mile to make me feel comfortable and relax."
"Excellent Doctor, great bedside manner, my first visit and I'm impressed with the entire experience. Edit update: Had my first ever colonoscopy and the entire team is first class, I'd recommend this team to anybody"
"My name is Patrick Horgan. I am the person who went to this appointment. For some reason, my wife's profile shows up whenever I do a review. Anyhow, my appointment at this office was excellent! The office staff was friendly and welcoming. Ashlee Walker, the provider I saw, was easy to talk to, very compassionate and positive in her approach to helping me with deal with the issue I'm having. She gave me several suggestions which I am currently trying. Making the appointment was not as easy however. From getting phone calls from people who were obviously not directly associated with the clinic to getting texts with links to some type of virtual assistant that made no sense, the process was a bit awkward. I would have given a higher rating if this had not been the case and it made me think about possibly canceling my appointment. I'm SO glad I didn't."
"I was able to get an appointment with the PA quickly after an ER visit the week before. She listened to me and talked about what could be done to move forward. Abbie said she would let the doctor know what had happened."
"I switched to Dr. Doxey from another provider, and he has been so much better. He ensures I'm given the chance to ask all my questions. While he relies mostly on pharmaceuticals, he also gives suggestions for herbal and OTC remedies and supplements."
"I took my mom to your facility. Every person we encounter from front desk to assistant to nekenzie to scheduling. They were amazing answering every question being helpful and all full of smiles and laughter. I recommend this place as a great place of service. Thank y'all so much"
"My visit with your office was particularly frustrating. Not the service received by the doctor, but my exchange with your staff prior to seeing Dr. Frech. I am writing a detailed summary of what transpired before the examination, which I will send you in a separate letter. Thank you."
"My experience with Utah Gastroenterology has been fair. My physician and PA haven't really meant my needs but we are trying temporary plans and if they don't help then they will go the next step up."
"They were great! Got in immediately and don’t have to wait. Spent time talking to me and explaining what I needed to do and a plan. I would recommend this facility."
"Dr. Trowbridge has taken exceptional care of me for 25 years. He expects only the highest quality care from himself, and he is a remarkable human being."
"Dr. Frech is an amazing, skilled and dedicated physician. One of the best I've ever encountered. He's very bright, empathetic and listens very well. I cannot recommend his enough."
"Peter Fenton is a great doctor. I have been going to him for over 20 years. He is always personable, caring, funny and has a good bedside manner. Above all he is a smart doctor and knows what to look for in the medical procedure's he does. My family and extended family go to him also and they have all good things to say about him. I could write a book on how pleased I am with him. Peter has always made me laugh when I see him. I got him to laughing in my recent experience. Last colonoscopy he left a tattoo where a removed polyp was. He said that it made me part of the “In crowd” to have a tattoo. So I asked my brother if he would like to see it. He declined of course. Peter laughed. Good gastrointestinal joke. The anesthesiologist is also great. I tell him I want to watch the procedure on the tv. He just laughs as he administers the anesthesia. The nurses are all great with good bedside manners. And always providing warm blankets. All in all a very good experience."
"Dr Bridge is the most patient & hardworking Doctor I know. He is always ready & will to help. His knowledge, his wanting to help & his communications skills are outstanding. Makes you feel like your concerns ,no matter how stupid they are. Are just as important to him as to you. He cares & listens. Thank you Dr. Bridge for making me feel important."
"Dr. Maxwell and his staff were extremely professional and answered any questions that I had in regards to my colonoscopy. I would definitely recommend Dr. Maxwell to any of my family, friends and neighbors."
"No one looks forward to a colonoscopy and I didn't have a doctor to do this prior so when I was put in touch with Dr Pederson's office working with him and his was wonderful. They put me at ease and it was a very straightforward and simple procedure I really appreciate the way they handled everything and it was a great experience considering no one wants to do a colonoscopy. I would highly recommend Dr. Pedersen and his team."
"I have huge gratitude towards Dr. Voaklander, She has the best bed side manner I’ve ever seen. She answered all my questions and she’s beyond supportive and willing to figure out my situation and is very sensitive. So glad I was referred to her. Thank you for being so Personable."
"Dr Trowbridge was referred for me for have my first colonoscopy, and I was so pleased with him that my husband has Dr Trowbridge as his Gi Dr. Dr Trowbridge has been thorough with explanations given, answered all our questions, gave detailed understandable guidelines to follow and addressed our concerns of our diagnoses. Truly caring and concerned about his patients. He really is an exceptional Dr all the way around. We’ve been with him now going on about a decade! Can we clone this young man😉 Thank You Dr Trowbridge Respectfully Mary Trent"
"This was a first visit. The office staff was friendly, and Dr Todd was thorough and efficient. I thought it was a good experience for a surgery consultation."
"This office is so friendly and very efficient. Dr Will was attentive and very through. He takes his time and isn't in a rush. I definitely recommend Utah Gastroentelogy."
"I always have a great experience with Ashley. She is very kind, listens to all my concerns, and does all she can to help me and make me feel better. The office staff are all kind as well. Very nice and helpful. I’m so grateful for this office!"
"I attribute Dr Trowbridge discoveries during a colonoscopy two years ago to saving my life...REALLY! I'd seen him several previous times for those dreaded colonoscopies and always appreciated his care during and after each procedure. In the one two years ago, he discovered I had autoimmune cirrhosis of the liver. I was on a ticking clock, but didn't really know how short my time might be. He helped me get in touch with the transplant clinic at Intermountain Health and began the process of getting qualified for the liver transplant list. It took time and LOTS of patience. He also recommended that I have some other things done periodically to relieve some of the symptoms I had been experiencing. I was placed on the liver list (and it was decided that I needed a kidney). I celebrated my 1st year anniversary for both transplants February 2024. My outlook for the future is tremendously better, and I can only thank Dr Trowbridge for helping me get the ball started."
"Friendly and Professional Dr. Moore is absolutely AWESOME!!! He listened to what I had to say which I'm finding more and more rare in today's Doctors. Then he explained to me what he thought was wrong and then explained what he wanted me to do. He was thorough and took his time to make sure I understood what he was saying. I would HIGHLY recommend Dr. Moore and his staff."
"I’ve been seeing Dr Trowbridge for 12 years now. He always takes time to listen and he genuinely cares about what is going on with you. He listens to you and explains everything he wants to do to help you feel better. You leave knowing what the plan is and all your questions answered."
"Check-in was timely. Stephanie was sweet, kind and gave me a chance to ask questions. Wait time, between waiting room and room time was about 35 to 40 minutes. I feel that’s a little excessive, but was OK with it because I had nothing else to do."
"Utah Gastroenterology in Bountiful is amazing. My husband started seeing Dr. Moore for a serious disease. He took immediate action in getting my husband to a U of U Hospital specialist. He has taken care of him until this appointment. His staff is so responsive, helpful, empathetic and kind. Drew and Stephanie have gone above and beyond. Thank you to everyone at this office who has helped us navigate my husbands situation."
"My time there was good. The P.A that talked to me, ( I believe his name was Dr. Miller) was very friendly and answered all my questions plus more. I would recommend your staff to anyone in need. Just like my friend Susan DeHann recommended you to me."
"Dr Frech has saved my life and for many years he has continued to monitor my health. Knowledgeable, professional, personable and I have always known that he is genuinely concerned about me and my health situations. A good man and a good doctor. The BEST !"
"Never too much wait time. It easy to get in and get out. The assistants are friendly. Dr Bridge takes time and will listen and is thorough with the information. It’s a good office."
"I had a great experience from front desk to check out. Will Durante was a lovely provider. He listened well, was relaxed and very professional. Thanks Will!"
"I have been going to Dr. Harmston for 24 years. He is an excellent doctor and always listens to my concerns. I have a lot of trust in the doctors diagnosis."
"The wait is my only concern. I arrived early as instructed, and saw the doctor about an hour after the appointed arrival time. It was about a half hour wait in the exam room. However, the doctor was thorough and knowledgeable. The assistant was helpful and friendly while being very patient."
"The in processing was well taken care of. Very kind at the front desk, the nurse getting all of my information, everyone in the surgery room. I’m grateful for the care that was given and kindness I was shown. Everything went well. My meds that were prescribed, were not at the pharmacy. So I need to contact someone and get them so I can start getting things better."
"Friendly and Professional Dr. Moore is absolutely AWESOME!!! He listened to what I had to say which I'm finding more and more rare in today's Doctors. Then he explained to me what he thought was wrong and then explained what he wanted me to do. He was thorough and took his time to make sure I understood what he was saying. I would HIGHLY recommend Dr. Moore and his staff."
"Dr. Pedersen feels very present, and focused on the task at hand, and what you are saying What an excellent doctor with attention to detail that is super important in this area of medicine."
"Ashlee Walker is great to work with. She stays on top of all issues and is very thoughtful and helpful. Dr Miller listened very well, reviewed my history with me, did a thorough endoscopy, testing, and found several issues/diagnoses. He’s kind and thoughtful. The nurse anesthetist was also. The office staff is kind, especially the test scheduler. They have been short staffed and have had communication issues the last few months."

"I’m very excited to be working with someone who cares to find out what the problem is."

"NP Jones showed genuine concern for my issues & ordered a much needed esophagram & stool sample to check for bacteria & poss reason for not gaining weight. I felt hopeful & appreciate her thoroughness."
"Rarely get to see MD (who I think is excellent) unless having a procedure. Mainly see NP. Struggled with feeling like the NP and team weren't listening and it took 6 months to get a diagnosis. Several members of office staff/MA team are curt. Don't always get call backs same day, prescriptions not called in to correct pharmacy, tiny mistakes/frustrations that add up over time."
"She is smart and educated in her field. I appreciate her expertise and next steps from the appointment. I was vulnerable with my symptoms but I felt I wasn’t getting judge. In fact she was from encouraging."
"It was very good except that Dr. Nekenzie rarely smiled, but then after someone said she just had a baby, I could understand because my son kept me up all night in 1984 !"

From the staff at the front desk and Vince my nurse what an awesome guy 👍🏼 and my anesthesiologist hats off as well Great guy and finally Dr Brown! What a kindhearted man, extremely professional and very caring person. Dr Brown was at my bedside when I awoke and discussed with me about my procedure and what they found. I cannot fault anyone from the time I checked in to the time I checked out."
"When I first met with Dr. krishnamurthy I was impressed with her skills/knowledge as well as her interaction with me. She was friendly, interested, and showed concern for my concerns. I felt very safe and very confident with her as my doctor. My health issues via her health instructions for me appeared to be positive. An impact of improved health was immediate and that meant the world to me. I am still in good health and again, I am very impressed with Dr. Krishnamurthy, her intelligence, her wonderful persona, and her success with me and my health issues. She is, in my opinion, simply amazing!"

Dr Voaklander had taken the time to review my extensive medical record and was a powerful listener to what I had to add. She has given me a plan that I can follow to further try to resolve my problems. I would like to thank her and would recommend her to others."
"Smooth operation. Got in on time. Staff was informative; nurse technician, Anesthesiologist and Dr Bown from start to finish. I walked out with my diagnosis without help and no residual discomfort. I had an Endoscopy. Previous Colonoscopy went the same way a few years ago."
"Wait was not too long, Doctor is quick to come in, very knowledgeable. No one wants to deal with digestive issues. Dr Maxwell is sensitive to that, and yet very forthright"
"I have been seeing Dr. Frech since 2011, when my own doctor called in sick for my colonoscopy. I liked Dr. Frech so much I switched.

They always get back to me and help me. I am so thankful for him."

"I was very impressed with dr Harmston’s professional & thorough advise on my issues.He gives advice & discusses issues . I would highly recommend Dr Harmston, because I prefer only the BEST ."
