Dr. Kutscher and his staff, especially Robin are amazing.
I cannot overstate the difference Doctor Kutscher has made to my quality of life. I believe, his care will result my my life actually being extended. That is, his treatment has not only improved my quality of live, but I think will also help me to live longer.
He explained the issues so that I could understand. He answered all my questions.
Appt staff lovely, visit with doctor, so disappointing
He is such a good doctor!
He was professional and thorough.
Dr. Kutscher is an excellent care provider. He has been my sleep doctor for the past 5 years and I know, regardless of when my next appointment is, that if I need something he is available via message or through the care team. I would recommend Dr. Kutscher to anyone and will continue to be a patient of his for as long as I am able.
I'm grateful for his attention and information.
He is an excellent physician who listens well and provides the utmost of care

Very efficient
Dr Kutscher is very understanding and interested in providing me with solutions to help me. I appreciate the time he takes to make sure I get my questions answered. I come away from my appointments feeling that I have received excellent medical care from a very knowledgeable medical professional.
He always answer all my questions and very patient, friendly and detail!
He’s awesome! I’ve seen him 3x now and he’s
So pleasant and helpful. I told him my concerns and he immediately came up with solutions. I really enjoy working with him.
Dr Kutscher is an excellent doctor with a comprehensive grasp of his field. Those are table stakes. What makes him an excellent doctor is his compassion, empathy, humanity. He understands at a visceral level how stressful it is to have a serious diagnosis dangling over your head. He is always 100% honest, but in a very diplomatic way. He gauges how much information a patient can reasonably process and finds a way to share the information in a way that lets you know he's in the foxhole with you.
he is great
Scott Kutscher is top notch! He is caring, knowledgeable, and professional.

Dr Kutscher is a doctor who knows how to present a serious diagnosis in a way that is both honest and compassionate.
He is an excellent doctor. He listens very well and asks questions that help him to suggest changes that might be helpful for the patient’s CPAP therapy. He also reminds the patient to be sure to contact him if the patient is having problems with the suggested changes. I would definitely refer any friends who are having sleep issues to him.
I met Dr Kutscher for the first time today. He is a very pleasant and easy to talk to. I was worried as Dr During was my physician until he left. I feel very comfortable talking with him. I think it will be a good patient, doctor relationship.
I really feel hopeful that I will finally get the right help
Provides easy to understand instructions and is a good listener
Dr. Kutscher is always very thorough in answering questions and in providing explanations.
Dr. Kutscher is very considerate about my time and providing his professional opinion about ongoing treatment via CPAP and what is ahead. In my particular case for example I'm at my 5 year to replace my aging machine and Dr. Kutscher gave me his insights and recommendations.
Staff are very helpful
He dose his job very well.
Excellent appointment. Professional and well-informed.
My opinion is that Dr Kutscher is an excellent knowledgeable physician. He provides me with the information and health care that I need. I appreciate that he provides a sincere concern for my health.

Scott is an exceptional doctor who is deeply knowledgeable. Listens attentively and communicates clearly, with honesty and compassion.
Dr. Kutscher is an excellent physician. He is knowledgeable, patient, listens attentively and answers my questions. He sums up the most important answers for me again at the end of the appointment. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing a sleep therapy physician and have already told several other people to ask for him and to go to the Sleep Clinic at Stanford since I think it is one of the best in the Country.
Scott is great. Listens well and gives thoughtful feeback.
Dr. Kutscher is compassionate, extremely knowledgeable and one of the more competent physicians I've had the good fortune to have on my medical team.
Entire experience as efficient and professional. Exceeded expectations all the way around. Including the free parking!
Dr. Kutscher was very easy to understand and explained my disordered sleeping in a clear fashion. He went through next steps and I left the visit ready to try the solutions he recommended. I felt the visit was as good as if I had been in the office with him.
Dr. Kutscher has been my sleep medicine physician for almost 3 years and I am grateful for his support. Dr. Kutscher is always reachable and is extremely personable and patient when we have appointments. I highly recommend him to anyone who asks about my care.
Really nice and always on time. Asks all the right questions.
Dr Kutscher is terrific. Very thorough. Good communicator. Empathetic. Listens.
Scott was pleasant, attentive and listened to wha I had to say. I feel confident about the proposed plan going forward
He is wonderful
It was a very productive meeting. We accomplished everything I needed to accomplish. And though I didn't think to request it, Dr. Kutcher thought to invite Dr. Martinez to the appointment to discuss CBT for insomnia with me. Very helpful.
This meeting worked like a typical, efficient business meeting works. We agreed to the goal of the meeting and the agenda, covered each agenda item, with Dr. Kutcher checking in to make sure we had shared understanding and agreement prior to proceeding to the next item, then we recapped so that everyone was clearly on same page and in agreement as to the next steps. I particularly appreciate that Dr. Kutcher listens really well and explains things in a really helpful manner - in person and on myhealth.
He is very helpful, caring and connects well with patients.
I think Dr. Kutscher is a wonderful Dr.. He is very helpful and has been extremely patient in listening and addressing any problems that I have had. He has put me in touch with others who can help in getting CPAP equipment and they have also been very helpful.
Very attentive
very thorough, explains well and answers all questions
we like dr. Kutcher
I am very happy to have Dr. Kutscher as our doctor. He has been a blessing as I struggle with RLS.
Excellent. Very happy with his care.
I always enjoy my visits with Dr. Kutscher. They are always fun, informative and on target. I always feel at ease with Dr. Kutscher and that I could discuss anything with him.
I've been impressed from the beginning with Dr. Kutscher. His advice has been on point and has helped diagnose and control my position-sensitive sleep apnea very well, using a combination of the Night Shift collar and raising the head of my bed.
He's also knowledgeable about related issues; offers consistent, straightforward advice; and is friendly -- I look forward to meeting with him.
Dr. Kutscher was informative and patient with my questions. Thank you!
I always like Dr Kutscher. He always listens to me and treats me with care and respect. He's always even-keeled, but friendly. I trust him, as well!
I enjoyed my visit with Dr. Kutscher because he was on time, courteous, and asked several times if I had any further questions. He was clear and used terminology that I understand. I am also clear on next steps. I would definitely recommend Dr. Kutscher to others.
Dr. Kutscher does an excellent job of listening to my concerns and formulating a viable strategy for addressing the concerns. I'm very pleased with his skills as a physician.
Dr. Kutscher has always been a wonderful listener, gives good suggestions, is knowledgeable and engaging.
He encourages my use of the machine through reinforcing statements and by saying that I'm doing a good job using the machine.
He makes adjustments based on my feedback and his review of the stats.
He's also very responsive on the my health emailed questions.
If I had the original Fellow who I'd met with, without the benefit of Dr. Kutscher, I doubt my Sleep Apnea treatments would have gone as well.
One plus about the video visits is the patient doesn't also have to meet with a Fellow, who may be like the one I met with--likely in the wrong profession.
I feel very lucky to have been assigned to Dr. Kutscher and recommend him to anyone who will listen.
Thanks, Doc!
He is a great physician and there is no difference in his visit whether it is in-person or video.
Super friendly, great bedside manner, willing to answer all my questions - very much appreciated!
Dr. Kutscher is very helpful and supportive. I believe that he understands my issues and works to make sure that I have the care I need.
He was late but apologized and understood my questions and comments.
we are lucky to have dr. Kutscher.
Scott was fine, seemed knowledgeable and helped me get to the next step.
Thank you so much
Dr. Kutscher is very good at listening: I feel like I am heard when I am speaking with him.
He always seems able to come up with things to try to help me out, and solve the problems I am having.
I have already referred several of my patients to the sleep study center at Stanford because of Dr. Kutscher's excellent fund of knowledge. I have referred my husband because my sense is that Dr. Kutscher cares about your concerns as a whole person (not as a 'diagnosis').
Very professional
I've always enjoyed talking with him.
I liked him a lot. The reason I wouldn't suggest a video visit with him is that I don't like video visits at all but I wasn't given a choice for this appointment.
He's very professional and very supportive.
Under Dr Kutscher, I have had the best care ever for managing my chronic RLS. His knowledge of my condition has improved my quality of life.
Dr. Panek the fellow, & Dr. Kutscher, the attending, were great. Both made sure I had all my questions answered and ensured I knew I could return for follow-up if needed.
Dr. Scott Kutscher Ihave me an excellent analysis of my sleep clinic data. Considering my concerns, he provided healthy alternatives to the Advil pm that I was using for sleep. His solution of Gabapentin is perfect! Dr. Kutscher provided a range of the medication to work with and 200 every night is working just great. Dr. Kutscher has a warm, friendly personality along with his competence.
Great, virtual session, worked really well for this check up.
Dr. Kutscher is one of the best doctors I've had.
Dr. Kutscher was super just like he is in the in-office visits.
Dr. Kutscher is always on time; very personable; listens; and, discusses options. Excellent provider.
Very good.
Dr. Kutscher usually responds to my messages within 24 hours, which is much faster than most doctors in my opinion.
I am pleased with the care provided by Dr. Kutscher for my sleep apnea.
He is so wonderful. Between Stanford's sleep team, pain management, and my GP my life has changed, and it has been drastically for the better.
i had my first meeting with Dr. Scott Kutscher in Sleep Medicine. He is everything that you'd want in a physician. I was extraordinarily impressed.
The doctor was friendly enough, but he did not seem like a natural for offering patient care. He seemed rather nervous in his role and as a result came off a little bit odd. Not that he was rude or unfriendly at all, but he did seem awkward in his interactions with me.
The Doctor is great. Spent adequate time answering my questions and helping me understand my treatment process.
It was very pleasant it has always been like that.
I have recommended patients to Stanford for 20 years it's an impressive institution that I intend to continue to use myself
Very little time spent discussing treatment, its effectiveness and what I might expect going forward. No to little emphasis on my specific issues.
good
Dr. Kutscher is an excellent physician. He is knowledgeable, professional and compassionate. I would not recommend any other doctor in the clinic!!! Stanford knows how to do it!!!
He took his time and explained everything.
Outstanding physician. I am fortunate to receive such good care.
Awesome!
Dr. Kutscher is an excellent doctor!
He was very good at explaining things in detail, answering questions, providing information, and not rushing through. I felt well cared for and appreciated.
excellent MD!!!
I saw a fellow for most of my visit before seeing the doctor named on this survey. I think the fellow could have listened to what I said better, and been a bit less routine. Two questions he asked showed he hadn't listened to what i said. I felt that during the short time i spoke to the doctor named in this survey he listened.
Dr. Kutscher is great. He is compassionate & caring & nice, knowledgeable & competent.
Your staff are not only knowledgeable, but also caring, very people oriented.
Dr. Kenia was excellent.
Dr. Frederick, Dr. Kutscher and Dr. Tan have all been excellent--far beyond anything we expected. Very attentive, caring, and highly competent. We have a lot of confidence in them and are grateful to be in their care.
I always feel that my doctor listens and understands what it is I am speaking to him about.
Although not entirely forthcoming himself, he answered my questions to my satisfaction
Doctor was knowledgeable. Was not an efficient visit. Visit lasted 45 minutes and likely could have been completed in half the time.
very supportive and accommodating
Even though I travel from out of state to see Dr. Kutscher, he is absolutely worth it. Dr. Kutscher always listens to any cocncerns or questions I have and I never feel rushed during my appointments, which is especially nice since I do travel from out of state.
Even though traveling to Stanford to see Dr. Kutscher requires more time, money, and effort on my part, I choose to keep returning because of my confidence in Dr. Kutscher and his ability to help me. He has taken an extremely frustrating and depressing situation and made it better. The medications he has prescribed have been life changing and are allowing me to live and function again. And because of that, he has given me back hope. He has made such a positive impact on my life, in ways he is not even aware of. I am grateful for Dr. Kutscher and for Stanford.
Dr. Kutscher is amazing. He always takes the time to explain test results, treatment options, etc. I never feel rushed and I believe he genuinely cares about me and helping me with my health issues.
No medications were prescribed at this appointment. I was so relieved after this appointment and I really felt confident that I was on the way to getting my life back.
Dr. Kutcher did excellent work in being warm, informative, analytical and supportive.
Very good communication. Doctor accurately assessed my degree of understanding and adapted his presentation appropriately.
Can't overstate how good of an experience this was. The Doctor I spoke with, Scott Kutscher, was extremely helpful and professional, and his advice has made a big positive impact on my health.
It was a foregone decision for me to begin using a CPap machine when I sleep. He explained the proceedure very well. I had already decided to use it if my condition warranted, which it did.
Dr. Kutscher was well manner and thorough in his diagnosis about my sleep problem. He's so concern about my well being & treatment of my condition.
Very good.
Excellent 'bedside manner', answered all questions and didn't rush me, thoroughly documented everything we discussed. Dr. Kutscher is great!
I find Dr. Kutscher MD to be a fine human and a great doctor!! Nothing but praise!! I have already recommended Sanford Sleep Center to many friends!!
Dr. Kutscher makes me feel extremely comfortable I ask questions without hesitation. He is an asset" to patients!
great doctor, I felt the doctor was both competent and willing to work with me as an individual on a treatment plan that fit my needs
Couldn't be better very knowledgeable! I felt comforted, great listener & understanding.
Dr. Scott Kutscher is an exceptional doctor, very compassionate and understanding. A superb listener!
very understanding & sympathetic attitude of the MD, both for scheduling appointments & while treating geriatric patients.
Dr. Kutscher reminds me of Dr. Ruoff. They both are very thorough during the visit. Dr. Kutscher went over the data on the cpap memory card and mentioned the good stuff(e.g. little to no mask leakage,AHI was at an all-time low).He even asked me if I had any questions or concerns before logging out of my chart.
absolutely superb care , from the very start. Thank you!
This was my first experience with Stanford Health, and as someone who works in healthcare, I tend to be very alert as to how things are run. I was impressed with the facility and the staff.
The doctor quickly dismissed a concern I had about side effects of the sleep device I'm using. He said, "No. It couldn't cause that" - with no explanation. It seemed to be a prejudiced rather than a reasoned response. An ENT dr. said I had a valid concern.
All good but too expensive.
I dedicated man to my treatment.
my visit was wonderful. i drive 2 + hours to get there and it was well worth it.have considered a change to something closer in the past but always decide to remain. always glad i have.
Dr. Kutscher was very attentive and knowledgeable on my symptoms.
Recommend to others.
