My brother was brought by ambulance with heart troubles, he had to be revived, & was on a vent. The emergency room staff managed to loose his belongings, dont know how this happened?, along with $560!! We tried to take care of it ourselves to no avail! They don't even have a sheet in his chart showing he came in with anything. But clearly he wasn't naked when they brought him in!!! He was sent to the CCU. The nurses were very nice, & compassionate. The doctors on the other hand were very cold, & not compassionate at all!! The worst hospital I have ever had a loved one in. Unfortunately, he didn't make it, & I blame this on the doctors lack of care, they gave up on him the 1st day! Wouldn't recommend to anyone!!!
Me and my wife recently had a beautiful Boy here. To start, ALL nursing staff are great, our midwife was nothing short of perfect. Couldn't have asked for a better care system. This is directed towards "the powers that be", " the administration, management, pencil pushers, whoever. Your birthing facility is in shambles, meanwhile you spend on oversized foyers and pianos that play themselves, the location of the birthing facility is as backwoods as a mountain holler, that mothers to be have to traverse to even start this birthing process, meanwhile there's not one but two Starbucks accessible from a short, 30 second walk from the street. They tell me that me, wife and new baby will have too double in a room, to share this new and intimate time with our son, because they are all out of room. At uk by god hospital that takes up 8 damned city blocks, we are packed into rooms as new family's like nothing more than forgotten pups. Your wonderful and caring birthing staff is tired and overrun, in an outdated and undersized facility and working environment, meanwhile the sports medicine clinic is updated, wonderfully sized and I'm sure well funded. All because some pencil pushing beaurocratic folks have said to the birthing center , in need of update, room and repair, "you are not profitable enough". Why? Do they not contribute to curb appeal enough? Is it because they have nothing to do with the sacred athletes we worship on the sec? Is it because the huge, useless entrance hall and self playing piano are that much of a priority? Give me a break. You have the most caring and wonderful staff to care for these little babies being welcomed to the world, you see their labor, their integrity, their care and toss it aside like old hat because at the end of the day, it's money that matters. "Lexingtons only baby friendly hospital" ... act like it.
My mother had to be admitted here. The staff, including the doctor were wonderful to us, so much so that I felt I didn't have to be there every hour of the day because I knew they were taking good care of her. The doctor spoke to me and discussed Mom's health care--taking time to listen to my input. Even the food in the cafeteria was good. As a patient, Mom liked the meals brought to her and she said her bed was comfortable. Thanks, UK.
There is no other hospital I'd trust with my health care.
We were admitted to hospital Thursday Oct. 26, 2017,and stayed until Nov. 6,2017. Dr. Michael Sekela was our physician, this mañs wisdom,dedication is beyond awesome, he is wonderful. His entire team, Nurse Melissa, on a scale of 1-10 was an 11.Never have we had such wonderful health care. We loved everyone we came in contact with whether it was food service,house keeping, Pharmancy,Xray,Lab,our Techs,nurses, they were awesome. A few that stood out, the sweet lady who brought his tray while on 2nd floor ICU, or Techs Morgan on 8th Icu or Chad 8th floor transitional unit. They are in the right field their bedside manner goes beyond excellent. The nurses to mention a few Madison 8th ICU, Renee 8TH icu, Heather, 8th transitional unit, Bre 8TH FLOOR transitional unit. All these people deserve a raise, they go the extra mile to see you are taken care of. If we ever had to go back for surgery or neede any other medical treatment, this would be the facility we would choose. GOD BLESS YOU ALL FOR TAKING SUCH OUTSTANDING CARE OF US. THE FAMILY OF TIMOTHY TACKETT, JENKINS KY.
