My visit with the Russell burn clinic was a follow up to an ED visit for a burn to my hand. Being new to Alabama and having never been to UAB main hospital, I found it frustrating to find the right parking deck. Having worked at a level one trauma center myself, I absolutely should've known to allow more time to get to the clinic on time. Either way, if you're going to the clinic, you'll need to park in the 4th Ave parking deck. (You can put UAB 4th Ave public parking in your GPS) Allow 20 extra minutes to find parking and get to the clinic.
My parking was validated by the gentleman at the check in. That was a pleasant surprise.
The other staff I had were wonderful! Shun was amazing. She's an RN who's been doing burn care nursing for 17 years. She is very personable and thorough in reviewing my medical history.
The PA who saw me, Jared Morrison, was pleasant, professional and answered any and all questions I had. He explained the care of my burn thoroughly and made sure I understood. I was also given supplies to continue caring for my burn.
Very happy with the care I received which has given me a good first impression of the main UAB hospital. (Parking aside! ) read more
