Imagine. Some diseases are kicking in and taking the toll on your physical strength. Or perhaps, you’re not completely healthy. You might be sporting a pesky cough or an ankle injury from trying not to fall off a skateboard. No matter in what guise, you are looking for some place that will take good care of you and your wellbeing, much like a lighthouse guiding ships home.
Utah’s medical clinics live up to the exacting standard of one patient + one nurse. They don’t look at patients as just another number. For example, my friend Lisa is generally the last person to go see a doctor after all her friends and family members have made their visits by flipping out on their way home from an encounter with wild bears; neither is she in danger this time around, for even she leaves her appointments at these clinics smiling thanks to the staff’s “approachable care”. Who’d ever think Lisa could be charmed without a cup of morning coffee?
More than just services, these clinics are bringing fresh medical thinking. No longer are one-size-fits-all solutions acceptable. Think about making your salad at the salad bar of the supermarket: each health plan is crafted specially for you alone. Your health isn’t a statistic, it’s a living tale.
Speaking to the staff is like having a cozy talk with a friend. The old days of grim-faced doctor’s visits are behind us. They are good conversationalists. Had you ever asked someone, “What happens next?” only to have him come up with an answer that would do justice to a Doctoral thesis? Not at these places!
You can also find them on the high tech frontier. Scheduling a check-up or getting test results seems no more complicated than ordering takeout. You’re always in the know without having to jump through hoops big and small!
Stopping for an examination at a top Utah clinic brings more than just checking off boxes on forms. It’s about forming real connections, getting our voices heard and when all is said and done taking away something brighter. That’s how medical care ought to be. And in Utah, it feels just right.
