Have your ever had the feeling that things aren’t right, physically, but you just can’t put your finger on a point except “I’m not well”? Perhaps you’re lauching onto the street after a skateboard stunt gone wrong. It could be as simple as an annoying cough and an equally annoying bent ankle. No bone-setting surgeon is required to put you right, though; this is a temple intent on seeing you back home.

People at Utah clinics get the highest-quality medical care around. My friend Lisa never won’t visit a doctor unless she happens to run into grizzly bears. But every time she comes here for her appointment, all the staff are wonderful. She always leaves with a smile as big as salt on her breakfast eggs, as if she simply can’t wait to get outside and trip over some fresh calamity. If anything these are easy on her before-work jitters, who knew Lisa loved us.

These clinics, however, are not merely serving as a center to deliver services; but they also can change the face of healthcare. Forget about finding one size fits all answers–each health plan is different and every bit tailored just for you. Your health is not a number, but an amazing tale that’s unfolding page by exciting page.

Speaking with the staff is much more relaxed. Those days of rigid, formal visits to a doctor are long past. People carry on lighthearted conversation among equals there. Ever asked ‘What happens next?’ only to receive an answer good enough for a Ph.D. thesis? Not at places like this!

Imagine tucking yourself into a comfortable chair as specialists from the health field gossip about their football teams, and continue, “With your mother’s famous lasagna–just shave some cheese off to make it less hard on your heart?” I’ve been told that a little cheer can only help medical advice!

They also are leading the way with technology. Scheduling your physical or watching your checkup results is more like Jesus buys lunch than filling out forms. You’re kept informed every step of the way and needn’t play bag-jumps for eight points just to keep them coming.

To visit clinics at the top end of this state is much more than foot-dragging through the motions and checking off forms. It’s about encounters on a grand scale–being heard, Seen, and changing your entire point of view for the better. This is what health care should be. In Utah, it comes naturally.
