Was originally told by the surgeon that I would be able to go home after two days in the hospital. Despite the delay, I was pleased that the doctors kept me until they were satisfied I could safely go home. My recovery at 3 weeks post surgery is going well. I am a 78-year-old widower from Auburn.

After the visit, they do not make it clear how to pay, they do not always actually send the bill, and when they do, it doesn't include the statement for what you are being billed for. I recently received a statement in a partially ripped and taped envelope. It's a shame given that their service is good, however when I am trying to focus on getting better, I shouldn't have to spend several days and calls trying to figure out how to pay a bill that was never even sent.

The quality of care I have received has been more consistent than it has not. There have been one or two individuals I haven't cared for, but I took the proper channels to address them. Parking is a pain like any other medical facility so be sure to account for that when deciding your arrival time. Be aware of EVERYONE walking in the garage. Someone will pop around a vehicle in a blind spot quickly. They have coffee that you can purchase at the cart or Starbucks if you just really need it. Sneaky Pete's and Wall Street Deli are easily accessible if you don't bring your own food, snacks, drinks and of course there are other options you can walk or drive to if able (sending someone else is ideal if you're here for treatments instead of a regular appt). Bathrooms are clean/checked often, facility is clean, most staff is pleasant/helpful. I find it easy to navigate by following the signage. Add some additional time for elevator wait times in case they are busier than normal. This is a high traffic building in general. My main complaint (0/5) is with the changes in the 5th floor infusion clinic (I can't speak for other areas). The individual that took them over at the end of last year has made several changes. One of the main ones I find an issue with is claiming there is no budget for snacks or drinks for the patients anymore. It used to be customary to offer a snack and drinks upon receiving your treatments to help with nausea, mask the horrible taste you have while receiving treatments, provide something for your time there, etc. I bring my own anyway, but there are several individuals who simply forget, don't focus on it because or pain or discomfort, or cannot afford to do so. There were 6 complaints I heard in the pod I was in for my most recent treatments over this change. I loveeeee the nurses here and even they aren't pleased delivering the news each time. UAB makes entirely too much money to claim $.05 cheez its, peanut butter crackers, chips, etc are out of budget. They offered that and more plus ginger-ale, juice, other sodas or water for years! The little things tell you if a facility cares about/values you as a patient. If you think people don't notice - they do. Even from something the higher ups feel is so small.

My experience at Marshall Medical North on June 19th was extremely alarming and put my health at…read moreserious risk. I was evaluated during my first visit that late morning/early afternoon and was told to return immediately if my condition worsened. Later that same day, my symptoms became significantly worse, so I returned as instructed. During this second visit, the physician on duty did not come into the room, did not examine me, did not reassess my symptoms, and did not repeat labs despite clear deterioration. The medical record from that second visit states that an exam was performed and that I was "in no distress." This is not accurate. I was sitting on the side of the bed actively vomiting, in severe pain, and visibly unwell. My blood pressure at discharge was 90/43. After being discharged in that condition, I traveled to a hospital in Birmingham, where I was immediately admitted with acute kidney injury and infection. I remained hospitalized from June 19th to June 23rd and required urgent surgery on June 22nd to remove the obstructing stone once the infection and kidney injury were stabilized. I have filed formal grievances with both the hospital and my insurance provider regarding the care I received during the second visit. Based on what happened to me, I cannot recommend this ER and would not feel safe returning. However, I do want to acknowledge that the initial doctor I saw, Dr. John Alves, was outstanding. He acted quickly, ordered the appropriate tests, and made sure I received pain relief. I truly appreciate his care and professionalism. I only wish he had still been on duty when I returned in worsening condition.

If I could rate zero stars I would. After finally getting to the back, the staff was very polite. They asked about my experience in the front and apologized for the treatment. They were fast and efficient.
