UAMS Hospital provides surgical services with professional and kind staff, including surgeons and nurses. The surgical team, led by Dr. Kang, is skilled and handles patient questions well. The nurses and registration desk staff are also helpful and conversational. However, patients may experience long wait times before surgery. The hospital's food has received mixed reviews, with some patients finding it tasteless or bad. On the other hand, the café in the lobby is considered good but pricey. Despite some drawbacks, the hospital's staff, including Leah and Lyrex, have gone above and beyond to ensure patient care and comfort. However, some patients have expressed concerns about billing mistakes and lawsuits. Overall, UAMS Hospital is recommended for its surgical teams and caring staff, but patients should be prepared for potential wait times and billing issues.
My mother has had two surgeries here to remove a cancerous part of her intestines-- one to remove it, and one to undo the ileostomy after she was healed. Dr. Kang was the surgeon both times and I will say that while he was very short with us he was still professional and handled our questions very well. The rest of the surgical team and all of the nurses were very kind, conversational, and helpful. The staff working the registration desks were also very helpful; a few were short with their words as well but they did their jobs very well. The only true negatives that bring this experience down to 4 stars was that even though we were told to be checked in by 7:45 (AM) both times & arrived early both times (before 7) my mother was not taken back for her surgery until almost 2 (PM) both times. I have no issue with how long the surgery took of course, but it was a very long and tiring process even before it even started. The other negative was that-- according to my mother-- the food was tasteless to downright bad at times, but we're unsure if that was due to dietary restrictions. The café in the lobby was very good but always busy and a little pricy. I would still say it was worth it. All in all, I would recommend UAMS for their surgical teams and the caring staff-- just with a small disclaimer of being prepared to wait!
My husband was in a freak accident on friday and i just want to say his team went up and beyond to make sure he was ok huge thank you to leah and lyrex both these woman went out of there ways to make sure he was ok they were amazing and i couldn't ask for any one else to help us threw this hard time both these woman deserve a raise or promotion cuz not only did they make sure my husband was good they made sure i was as well due to me being 5 weeks pregnant. They really do care about there patients
Maybe if I post a 5-star review it will stick?This place is a disgusting, money-hungry conglomerate which will do anything to increase the amount of your bill, and specializes in billing mistakes and lawsuits. Just beware what you are getting into you if you end up here….I’ve tried to post honest 1-star reviews. They get deleted. Maybe this works?
