Well the section of the hospital I was in was clean as well as the restrooms. Shout to there cleaning crew! Now for the S. Unity Tower in particular: My sister had surgery and I can for the most part say most of the nurse were pretty good. However I have some shoutouts personally to some of them that left an impression on me. Yasmin L. You were absolutely amazing ma’am prompt, gentle, personable. My sister really enjoyed having you as a nurse. Ms. Kelsey R. Very sweet, informative, gentle as a butterfly, prompt and compassionate! Ma’am are the real MVP. Lastly Ms. Laura( Charge Nurse) hands down thee best charge nurse on that floor. She was on it when it came down to my sister. I mean everything that is nurse is suppose be she is! She was prompt, gentle, compassionate, personable. I enjoyed talking with her. She just doesn’t do it for a check and you can tell. This woman really cares about her patients and her actions show it. Acknowledge and appreciate these women! Peace, love and an abundance of blessings to you all🖤💚❤️

I recently took my wife to Methodist Hospital due to chest pain symptoms. From the moment we arrived, she was taken in immediately and attended to without delay. The nursing staff namely Leslie and Karizza was truly exceptional helpful, kind, and incredibly supportive throughout the entire process. we received good care and sincerely thank the nurses for their dedication and warmth.

This hospital used to be st John’s times have changed!
Needed to speak with Dr or discharge planner left vm for that department but was never called back. The nurse Matt was supposed to call me once discharge orders were written but did not. Explained to him patient might need skilled nursing facility as she could not walk well requested what PT was doing with her and what their assessment was but never received a call back. I explained her home was not safe she lived alone she would get short of breath with less than 10 steps they discharged her anyway and u ered her to her house. He never said what the discharge orders were. I

I believe the ladies name was heitite m. She was at the front desk with black hair. She was extremely rude. I came here as my mom wasn’t feeling okay and she was very condescending and seemed even annoyed. You would think for a hospital the people are supposed to be caring and nice but she was the exact opposite. Don’t go here

I have mixed feelings about this place but I will do my best to give an accurate opinion. I love the fact that the hospital is close to our house it is probably the only reason my wife is still alive. The nurses have been great, glad they have thick skin I got upset with them a few times and they let me vent. The Dr's were not communicating with each other in my opinion, I feel that they are under staffed and it puts the burden on the patient. My wife had a heart issue and is in ICU, the heart doctor said he can't do any test until the kidney doctor sees her so you would think they would coordinate this and make it happen but no such luck. So now I'm sitting here watching a monitor and seeing things get worse and so I called her primary Dr and he basically said look at the hospital reviews and you will know what to do. So I called around and will be transferring my wife to a hospital that specializes with the heart. This hospital is great for other services according to the reviews but not for what she needs. So do your research this place did it's job and kept her alive and I am greatly appreciative of them for that. However I believe they are under staffed and that is what's causing most of the issues I read about.

8 hours wasted with this place. They will gouge you on everything. I had insurance and they charged me 5k for 1 single lower back xray and 5x hydrocodone 5mg prescription I had to pay extra for which didn't even work. They also sat me in a chair left me for 6 hours with only a single cup of water. What kind of business are yall running. What's the 5k for? Am I putting a down payment on your 20k xray machines? If so then where's my xray machine. No way does it cost that much for a simple xray. I could get 20 full body xrays in australia for under 1000 without insurance so what's the go?

I been going to this urgent care for years. Never experienced horrible care until these last couple of weeks. This head nurse Akosua was so rude to me . Even tried to tell me how I was feeling. Had IV sitting in my hand hurting while she was just sitting at desk looking at her phone.!I had to literally walk to desk bc I pressed the nurse button numerous of times and she didn’t care…. Please get the old nurses that care back!

This review is for a older experience, nearly from 2 years ago but it’s bothered me for quite some time. Roughly two years ago, in December I came in with extremely bad back/abdominal pain. I sat in the back for at least 2-3 hours, nurses coming in occasionally, I saw the Dr treating me and diagnosing me one time and then saw the director or the chief for my diagnosis. While I was with the first Dr I explained all of my issues and mentioned how I thought the problem was my gallbladder, I was expecting him to at least double check to give me more certainty that it wasn’t my gallbladder but he promptly said gallbladder was not the issue. No more said on it and I went on with the visit, at this point I’m back in the lobby as it was getting busy and I was waiting for my final diagnosis. As I mentioned it was a director or chief someone of that nature that gave me the diagnosis, I was told my issue was inflamed rib cartilage, and my course of treatment was to rest and take ibuprofen. Instead of maybe questioning what was causing the inflamed rib cartilage I was sent home and not properly taken care of. Fast forward a whole month and a half, the pain has not gone away, ibuprofen did not help, the pain gets extreme again and by this point I can’t sit still, I’m crying, trying to use the hottest water from the shower to help the pain, none of this works and I decide to go to UTMB. Within minutes of being at UTMB they state several times it sounds like my gallbladder. They immediately knew, my symptoms were exactly the same between methodist and UTMB, the pain was just worse for UTMB, my blood panel at both hospitals showed the signs of my gallbladder having issues, I went over the the results of both test and my levels weren’t super elevated at methodist but I was still clearly able to pick out the indicators of my gallbladder, when apparently the doctors couldn’t. UTMB did a sonogram and MRI to conclude the issue was my gallbladder, the MRI showed that my gallbladder was full of gallstones and I had a gallstone stuck in my bile duct. They thankfully took care of my issue swiftly when it should’ve been caught at the first hospital visit. I went through weeks of the worst pain I’ve ever experienced, had to go through my birthday in pain and then recover from surgery right after my birthday. From early December to late January I was stuck in pain because of the lack of attention, or the lack of care I’m not sure, from methodist. UTMB had me admitted and scheduled for surgery within 5 hours. Methodist sent me home in pain without a real diagnosis.
