When my daughter and son-in-law drove me in to Somerby of Mobile, I was so impressed with the manicured landscape and the beautiful building. I was even more impressed when I walked through the doors of Somerby and met all the friendly staff and residents. I thought to myself "even my mother would love this place and she was very particular!" But, the best part of it all was when my daughter called me the next morning after my first night at Somerby and told me she had had the best night's sleep she had had since "Daddy" died because she knew I was safe. I have lived here for 2 1/2 years and I have met so many friends through all the great scheduled activities we have. From the first day I walked into the dining room, the residents were so warm and welcoming to me. Also, Somerby has allowed my spiritual life to be maintained by providing Bible study, Somerby Church services and transportation to different churches. Lastly, I cannot leave out how professional and friendly the staff at Somerby is. It blows my mind that the wait staff can remember all of our names and they always remember exactly what beverage we all drink. I just love it here! read more

My sister and I have recently been on the hunt for an affordable independent living center for our mother. It has been an exhausting search, but we have finally found a place that feels like home. Somerby of Mobile is unbelievable. The facilities are unique and still affordable. M. Milstead, the Director of Sales has been beyond helpful, calling to check on our situation, (staying in touch for over a year) offering his help and guidance in anyway he can. He is genuinely concerned and understands how hard some decisions are to make and patient when you explain you just aren't ready yet. Now that the decision has been made, we are excited, including our mother, to move her in. We know she will be safe and enjoy the independent living she wants, yet will be checked on daily and will receive wonderful, healthy meals. Anyone that is considering a Senior community with independent living apartments should look into Somerby of Mobile. There isn't a better place around. read more
