We were very pleased with his thoughtful and thorough explanations. Even beyond that he consulted both with his colleagues at Portneuf Medical Center as well calling a pancreatic specialist at the Univ of Utah Medical Center. It put our mind at ease over different issues. Very friendly and patient in spite of being very busy. We consider the business a plus not a negative. The best are worth waiting for.

I do not disregard Dr. McRoberts intentions, but he fails miserably. He is probably a great surgeon but he is too busy. This past surgery will be last preformed by him and the very last at Portneuf Medical Center. The recovery room after surgery is the WORST with the WORST nurses. I was out the door of the hospital before I was even fully conscious and he never came to see after. He is always too busy and late and full or excuses. He received a 2 because I'm still alive.
