Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I feel like I'm in very good hands there every time I go to my appointments. The staff, and of course Dr Eng reassures me of things that I'm concerned with and my fears diminish. Thank you!

The doctor was... did an outstanding job by reaching out to my oncologist. I was very appreciative because my oncologist is not with UCI. He's at a totally different provider. And I really appreciate her taking the... the steps and the initiative and the, before seeing me, to make contact with him to speak to him about my case before coming to see me. I think that was awesome. She did a wonderful job and she's probably one of the first doctors at UCI where I've seen other doctors there, but she did an outstanding job. I... I... you guys... you guys have an awesome person and not only that, she treated me as a person. She gave me hope. She gave me that like, what's the word? She... she gave me hope and, but more than anything, she showed me... she

I really appreciate Dr. Jutric and her staff and particularly her nurse or assistant {Staff name removed}. They played a major role in saving my life from pancreatic cancer over a year ago. She just keeps on top of all my CAT scans and all the information. She takes action if necessary as soon as possible. I so appreciate Dr. Jutric and everyone at UCI. I think they're wonderful and they do a great job.

Dr. Jutric and her staff are absolutely amazing and every way shape and form. Tenacious to care for me, determine do the impossible and graciously keep up on my case. Dr Jutric visited me every day in the hospital for the 10 days I was there and was constantly concerned, a very intense listener, and immediately following up on all needs. Truly, an advocate!

I thought the doctor was rude as how she just came into the room and just told my son that if he had surgery he would die. She could have softened the blow a little. Patients have feelings. My son is {patient PHI removed}. He doesn't know how to deal with this type of news. I will never recommend anyone to this doctor. The PA was great. Maybe she needs to get in touch with her own feelings so that she may remember that others have feelings.

Dr. Jutric is professional. She tried to understand and listened to my concerns. She tried to list and confirm available options that provide the best-fit with patient like me who got stuck with insurance issues. She also communicated with a fallback action plan. She paid attention and looked into my eyes when talking and kept a friendly distance instead of standing far away. She is not rushing.
