I can honestly say this has been one of the most positive and life-changing experiences I've ever…read morehad with fitness. Train Smarter truly lives up to its philosophy: "Train Smarter, Not Harder." This isn't your typical gym environment--there are no intimidating crowds, no competition, and no pressure to "perform." Instead, it's a welcoming, supportive space focused entirely on helping you move better, feel better, and live without limits. What sets this place apart is the level of personalized attention. Every session is either one-on-one or in a very small group (2-6 people), and each class is led by knowledgeable, professional coaches who genuinely care about your individual needs. They are incredibly helpful and always prioritize your safety, while guiding you toward better balance, strength, and overall health so you can truly thrive. They take the time to understand your abilities, past injuries, and goals, adjusting every movement accordingly. It feels less like a workout and more like a reset for your body--correcting old habits, improving posture, strengthening joints, and building functional strength that actually translates into everyday life. The atmosphere is incredibly positive, encouraging, and fun. It's the kind of place where people of all backgrounds come together--whether they're starting from zero, recovering from surgery, healing from injury, or rebuilding after major life changes like illness or having a baby. I've watched people of all ages transform--not just physically, but mentally--gaining confidence, energy, and a renewed outlook on their health. One of the most inspiring things is the range of people here. I've worked out alongside individuals well into their 90s, all improving their strength and quality of life. That alone speaks volumes. For me personally, this is the longest I've ever stuck with any fitness program. I'm about to hit my 3-year mark, consistently attending twice a week--which is something I never thought I'd say. The flexible scheduling (anytime between 6am and 6pm) makes it easy to stay committed. I truly can't say enough good things about this place. If you're on the fence, I encourage you--give it a try. Invest in yourself, and love yourself into better health. You won't regret it. Cindi Routman

I'm new to Hoover & very happy to have found the pediatric branch of Brocks Gap Dentistry!…read more I scheduled an appointment for my oldest child, as a follow up to having a tooth extracted in our previous state. Upon entering the office we were pleasantly surprised to see his name displayed on an a-frame sign, welcoming him as a new patient. How thoughtful! I've since returned with my younger two children for cleanings & for follow up visits for my oldest. My entire crew enjoys visiting this practice! Staff has been consistently friendly & helpful. Hygienist and doctors are skilled & knowledgable. They have provided quality care and ongoing clear communication. Paperwork is complete online prior to appointments or in-office with a tablet. The waiting area are child friendly & fun -- complete with arcade style game machines (Pac-Man, Stargate, Galaga, Multicade) and sit-on monster trucks. If you're looking for a pediatric dentist, I highly recommend scheduling with Brock's Gap Pediatric Dentistry!

Not many people understand what it's like to parent a special needs child. In our case, every day is different and many times good oral hygiene is a struggle, leading to many, many teeth and gum issues. We have taken our daughter to over 20 dentists in the Birmingham metro area (yes, early on, we called UBA and the wait was a year for anesthesia), and Brocks Gap is THE ONLY DENTISTS who were willing to save our daughter's teeth. THEY CARE. Dentists, hygienists, DAs, managers, receptionists, etc. are there to help, but this is how they feed their families and they must be paid (this is a finger shaking to the negative reviewers who are angry that they charge a late or no-show fees). They went above and beyond to help a middle-class family who did not have all the funds to give their daughter a new start with her teeth. They are working with a new company that doesn't focus on credit score allows patients to make monthly payments for dental work, so if you think you can't afford to go to the dentist, give them a call. They have so many options for struggling families just like us. If you have a fear of dental work, you can even request anesthesia, which is a must with our child, who has extreme anxiety and could not tolerate the time sensitive and lengthy dental care she needed. If you have a child who is autistic, you will be in VERY SAFE HANDS at Brocks Dental. We will be letting families everywhere know that there is a dental facility that can care for the whole family, but ESPECIALLY our autism babies who need the kind of care that they give. We will never, ever forget the compassion and empathy given by each person who makes Brocks Gap what it is, a place where parents are not judged, and a true love of children and their well-being is so very apparent. Thank you to everyone who has greeted us with a smile, understood when we needed to reschedule due to melt downs or blown tires (we drive over an hour to them, because it's worth it). given patience to a very sensitive 16 year old and still helped us when Mom has had stress induced breakdowns. We would not trust anyone else with our daughter. There's a special place in heaven for those who care about children and who are humbly gracious with the struggles of others. We are so blessed to know them! Lisa Dolce

This is my second Lasik surgery in 40 years in Birmingham. My vision in 1990 was 2800 before…read moresurgery and I had extensive astigmatism. I hated glasses and since I hunt wilderness areas by myself for weeks at a time, losing my glasses would have been really bad. Dr, Sarah Hayes did my first surgery the first year Lasik was allowed in USA. My corrected vision went from 2800 to 2015! I had been blind all my life and now had hawk like vision. I was dumfounded!! Now 35 years later my vision had deteriorated to 2070. Dr, Hayes had retired and after some research I settled on Dr. Michaelson in Birmingham, Al. He is an intelligent and interesting person to talk to with excellent people skills. On the day of surgery, he was a different person. No joking around or laughing but all business. He is very thorough and over next few months I met with him numerous times for follow-up. So now after 3 months my vision is 2020 and getting better after each visit. I have 1 more visit in 6 months but I expect my vision to stay at 2020 or even improve some more. So if you are tired of wearing glasses that get broken, slide down your nose, always needing cleaning or just looking goofy in glasses, don't be afraid to get Lasik surgery. Its somewhat expensive but it will be the best investment you will ever make. I have gone now though 2 Lasik surgeries and have had no problems at all on either surgery. I consider Dr. Michaelson to be the best Lasik surgeon in Birmingham and possibly the entire South East.

I looked around to find the doctor I believed had the lowest complication rates and was very competent. Now I'm honestly not sure where his price is compared to others but he was definitely the right choice. Extremely thorough and took his time to fine out exactly what my needs were. I am a plastic surgeon so I needed great vision up close but also wanted things far away to be clear. We opted for monocular vision lasik. The surgery went great. I still can not believe I waited so lone. Great doctor who cares.

Holly explained that she often uses a massage approach that does not require getting undressed, yet still provides the full therapeutic benefits through targeted muscle manipulation. She has a calm, pleasant presence and was wonderfully intuitive. She engaged in conversation when I wanted to talk and allowed quiet rest when I needed that instead. A fantastic location for overall wellness. I truly felt cared for from start to finish.
