I was treated by Doctor Saltzman for a significant ankle issue including surgery. He takes the time to explain the issues and recommended treatment including going through the imaging results to show you exactly what is going on. He takes the time to listen, does an excellent job of answering questions and is very personable. I had never had surgery before so didn’t know what to expect but Doctor Saltzman, the anesthesiologists and all of the nurses put me at ease and did an exceptional job. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

Dr. Saltzman changed my life. I had chronic foot pain for about 3 years which was not being resolved by other treatments. One doctor told me to "shave off the bone on my toe" , another one told me to "burn off my nerve on my foot". So it kept getting worse. I did have one amazing doc whose steroids shots would provide some temporary relief but the pain kept coming back. As a 43 year old with an active lifestyle (sports), the chronic foot pain was devastating. Dr. Saltzman gave me an MRI, said something was there but he couldnt tell what it was till he went in. He found and removed a benign mass. I am now PAIN FREE and have MY LIFE BACK!!. Dr. Saltzman is heaven sent. I cant thank him enough for his steady hand and approach. He is knowledgable, straight forward (he didnt promise me anything and warned me of how tricky foot surgeries can be) and is my angel. Thank you Dr. Saltzman. THANK YOU! - Maria Graham

Dr. Saltzman has an amazing set of skills that are very helpful when others do not have the same abilities to help. My wife and I saw 6 or 7 different ankle specialists who were not trained with a Talar replacement reconstruction surgery. We were referred to him by several different orthopedic surgeon’s who said he was the man to see and even though we live in Iona, Idaho, we are grateful to travel several times to the University of Utah for his ability to rebuild my wife’s ankle. It sounds over-stated but he was literally an answer to our prayers. Thank you so very much for your hardworking expertise. Many prayers of gratitude for you Dr Saltzman.

Today I had surgery on my broken foot at the University of Utah orthopedic center on campus with Dr. Charles Salzman, and his amazing team! All the staff nurses anesthesia, nursing station, preop postop, and Dr. Salzman all have an amazing quality of communication dedication and care skills. I rate everyone above and beyond any expected service I don’t know how they do it. They are just amazing.!!!! Much gratitude to you and blessings! ?

Dr Saltzmsn is a true professional. He will do all he can to resolve your issue will still being respectful to you and keeping your dignity I tack. I owe my leg to him; others were wanting to amputate it or just give up and leave me with a nonfunctional leg and ankle. He found a way to give me one more chance while letting my leg heal on its own as much as possible. He makes sure you understand what’s going on and he does it in “lay terms” without making you feel stupid. If you ever have a foot/ankle problem it’s well worth your time to track him down at the U and get an appointment.
