We were recommended to see Doctor Geiger!! We finally got a…read morereferral but sadly it was after my daughter got her back surgery that went terrible wrong . She re herniated it 2 days from coughing since she got pneumonia . Her neurologist wanted a second opinion on what to do next . We called Doctor Geigers office and was told she had to wait SIX MONTHS to be seen by the almighty doctor since he thinks it is unethical!! We thought knowing we had a great referral from another doctor I would call again and explain the situation. Keep in mind my Daughter is 24 And has been through a lot this last year! 5 foot surgery's ,tonsillectomy ,back surgery that ended up with her in the Er from pneumonia and almost died before they had to put her on a ventilator!! Then a two week stay and weeks of physical therapy! Sooo rough year!! And she rehernated it from coughing so hard . I talked to Deb the Doctors personal secretary. Explained what was going on at first she seemed frustrated because she gave my daughter the reason which I have never heard of! But she listened and seemed to understand more and asked for us to send paperwork which we did. The next day she called and chewed my daughter out for having me call on her behalf! She stated she shouldn't have been bothered by me calling her because she is TWENTY FOUR years old! And I had no business calling her. She then asked to put both of us on the phone so she only had to explain this once so we didn't call her back!!! Well DEB if you were my secretary you would be fired!! You upset my daughter and pissed me off! No You will not disrespect my daughter and myself!! Think before you talk ! You are rude, disrespectful and a cold hearted person!

Procedure went very well where the communication between me and the staff was outstanding before, during and after the procedure and the staff and doctors were extremely professional, courteous, helpful and above all COMPETENT! Excellent follow up as well once we got home which was greatly appreciated. If anything of a serious note happened to us we always head to the UM hospital network in Ann Arbor as this is the best health care in Michigan for my money. GO BLUE!

The parking at U of M is less than to be desired. Especially with all the construction. It does take a while to get the initial appointment. I think I waited about three months. We will be going over different treatment options. If you have sleep apnea or other sleeping problems and need to have care for the problems, I would highly recommend the staff here.

Five-star review for nursing assistant Dawn M…read more Dawn formed such a special bond with my mom during her care. Even when she wasn't assigned to her, she would make a point to stop in, check on her, and spend time talking with her. She consistently encouraged my mom to push herself in order to get better, always with kindness and compassion. Dawn truly cared for my mom as if she were her own family member. She held her hand during difficult procedures, gently washed her hair at the bedside, and brought moments of laughter and comfort during a very challenging time. She is an incredibly hardworking and dedicated caregiver who goes far beyond expectations. I truly believe she played a significant role in my mom's recovery. Specialty Services is lucky to have someone like Dawn--and so were we.

A mixed bag review for Select Specialty Hospital located in St. Joe's Ypsilanti. This place made…read morelots of promises but delivered on few the first go around but they did much better on the second time we needed to use them. When my dad needed an acute care center to rid him of his trach tube and to help him with his physical therapy beyond what the hospital could do, this place came highly recommended. With a patient/nurse ratio of 2 to 1, we felt that my dad would get the care he needed. We were put on a wait list to get in and after a few days my dad was transferred in. Unfortunately, on the first stay- they really didn't do anything that they said there were going to do so he left exactly the way that he went in. Where was the trach rehab, where was the physical therapy? And why were they pushing him out before anything had been done for him? On his next stay, my dad's health was worse and it was during this stay that I actually thought he got great care . . . .like I expected the on the first go around. One nurse in particular, Georgane, stood out. She was great with my dad, asking about who he was before he was sick, and really taking the time to do what needed to be done with him. She seemed to genuinely care. Also- the social worker who was assigned us was very helpful in the end when we were looking for hospice care. She found a hospice that believed in what we did and it made the transition to home care very easy. This is the newest of the Select Specialty care locations so the rooms are mostly private and the place is clean and new with all amenities like flat screen TV's, decent chairs and large windows. If we hadn't had such a bad go around the first time- this would have been a 4 star review for sure.
