  • My son plays football for a local high school. Dr. Maak discovered a fracture in my sons foot that had been misdiagnosed by two previous doctors. My son wore a cast/boot for 8 weeks when in fact he had needed surgery. A 6-10 week recovery turned into nearly 6 months. Dr. Maak has the most positive attitude and kept my son focused on next season instead of the season he had lost. He has a unique way of interacting with athletes to help uplift their outlook and focus on healing and getting back to the level they were before the injury. I will never go anywhere else.

  • Dr. Maak takes what is a scary, uncomfortable situation (seeing an orthopedic surgeon) and brings compassion, humanity, and honesty into each interaction. He has always shared information from an objective stance, yet delivers his words with genuine care and compassion. He truly is interested in your medical care and you as a person. He listens thoroughly and empowers the patient to guide the course of their medical care. Thanks, Dr. Maak! I thoroughly appreciate how you operate (literally and as a person).

  • I am a 23 year old student who has unfortunately faced knee problems for many years. I was scared to get another knee surgery, but Dr. Maak relieved any anxiety I had. Dr. Maak is a doctor who took the time to listen to me. He seemed to genuinely care about what would be best for me in the future. He was straightforward and honest and really made me feel I could trust him. Thank you Dr. Maak!

  • If you have a specific surgical issue, that needs to be evaluated, Dr. Maak is a marvelous surgeon. If you have ortho issues, that do not include surgery as an option, you may want to consult another provider.

    my experience was amazing! he has been the first doctor post surgery to try to help me try to really get out of pain.

  • March 02, 2016
    Dr Maak and his Assistant make a wonderful team- they are the best!!!

  • Dr. Maak is most excellent in his profession. He is able to quickly assess complaints and smoothly coordinates his physical exam with specific questions. He is thorough on evaluating the concern, clear in reviewing possible treatment options and compassionate in his interaction. I was impressed specifically with one visit. I came in for a hip concern, and was seen for follow for that. As Dr. Maak’s procedure had really relieved the majority of my hip pain, I realized that a shoulder injury had been hurting for some time as well. When I mentioned that, with the intention of getting another appointment to evaluate the other concern, he quickly assessed this and proffered treatment. He went above and beyond in addressing all concerns, even with the schedule that he needed to keep. As his patient, I was very appreciative of he and his staff’s support of the issue. It made me feel cared for and enabled me to continue on with life, with a noted decrease in pain. This clinic does a truly phenomenal job, in coordinating the patient through the clinic process. The registration clerk efficiently performed her job with sensitivity for private information. The support staff smoothly coordinates the visit, with the MA taking charge of the patient.

  • UofU Patient February 08, 2016
    Dr. Maak is awesome.

  • UofU Patient February 02, 2016

    Outstanding. I love Dr. Mack. His manner is so pleasant and caring.

  • UofU Patient January 25, 2016
    Very impressed! Dr. Maak came highly recommended by several staff members. He exceeded my expectations. I appreciated his condor and how he spoke to me during this visit. He was short staffed this day but did not seem flustered nor rushed. I will definitely recommend him as well.

The surgery scheduler, Francoise, was exceptionally helpful and went the extra mile answering my questions and helping set me up with a physical therapist I would be comfortable with.

  • UofU Patient October 30, 2015
    I don’t want to admit this, but I dreaded this appointment because of the reputation surgeons have. Dr. Maak has the best bedside manner of any surgeon I have met. He was so pleasant, clearly knowledgeable. I felt like he spent all the time I needed to feel good about the plan.

  • October 27, 2015
    I love the team approach to patient care. The clinic manager and rehab specialist are really excellent, and I know they will make my surgery easier. I felt like this practice was a well-oiled machine. That is reassuring, since I will be having surgery. The x-ray technician was really friendly. She tried to make sure I was comfortable, even though the position I needed to be in wasn’t particularly comfortable. I was really surprised that they called me to schedule after my orthopedist referred me. That was really nice. I was also pleasantly surprised by how quickly I got an appointment. I don’t want to admit this, but I dreaded this appointment because of the reputation surgeons have. Dr. Maak has the best bedside manner of any surgeon I have met. He was so pleasant, clearly knowledgeable. I felt like he spent all the time I needed to feel good about the plan.

    Dr. Maak has provided medical care for me throughout the 5 months since my injury, and he has been outstanding! He has been caring and has provided clear and detailed information about my medical situation. Though the results of my MRI showed a problem more serious than I had anticipated, I felt that he was concerned and was reliable in his diagnosis and instruction about how to proceed. I’m glad to have been cared for by Dr. Maak.

  • November 15, 2013

  • August 19, 2013
    Travis Maak is an excellent surgeon, but probably even more important, he has excellent personal skills in communicating with patients and involving them in the decision-making about their therapeutic alternatives. I am a health care provider myself and I was truly impressed with his “people skills”. I am also thrilled with the outcome of my surgery and would hands down, recommend him to friends and family (in fact, I already have done so).

  • February 02, 2013
    Dr Maak through his kindness, compassion, and experience continues to guide us through an extremely scary, stressful situation by providing us with honest, current, professional information, enabling us to make the difficult decisions necessary, feeling confident, and supported thought out this process.

  • August 31, 2012
    Dr. Maak was excellent. Most helpful and friendly.
