The Best 18 MEDICAL SERVICES near Gainesville, FL (Part 2)

Jorge Villaverde The entire ER crew were outstanding! I had a nasty deep gash on my hand that required sutures. I was tended to immediately with no delays. They multi tasked very well as a team and I had the most pleasant and quick visit to an ER in my entire life. The staff were very friendly, knowledgeable, and EFFICIENT! They also called the next day to follow up and see how I was doing. I can go on but I want to keep this short and sweet.

Vickie Dennis Was very impressed with the treatment I received. The staff was professional, knowledgeable, caring and helpful. Was seen in a timely manner. Nurse Beth was AMAZING. Super caring, helpful, very calming , reassuring, thoughtful person. I am terrified of needles and she has an amazing technique. I truly never even felt the injection, totally amazing as I am so needle sensitive and phobic. Beth is amazing and one incredible, OUTSTANDING, AMAZING nurse. Thank you for your kindness. Dont like the registration and being pressured to pay system at all. All the never ending forms and taking pictures of your insurance cards and having to pay right there while not having any human contact, all done through a machine, DO NOT LIKE THAT AT ALL.

elizabeth mclaurin Incredible experience! All needs for rehab are provided everyday.

Everyone (no matter their role) notices and is excited & encouraging for your hard work & progress. The meals are good with lots of options to select from every day.The facility is very clean with a great gym, and equipment & all rooms are private. Your health is monitored closely 24/7 -unobtrusively- so you feel safe & well cared for ! If you need a rehab center, you would be fortunate to go here.

Cheryl Sisson The UF Rehab Hospital was excellent. The outstanding staff, nurses, doctors, and therapists all worked together to create an environment for recovery. They are respectful, professional, and supportive in all the activities required to strengthen your body and go home. The hospital offers 3 hours of therapy everyday and they challenged me each time to reach my ability to take care of myself when I left the hospital. The staff was so attentive to my needs. I cant even begin to say how amazing the UF Rehab Hospital was for helping me recover and go home feeling confident and independent.

Rae Went in for a blood test. Nice facilities. I was disappointed by the staff who all seemed a little stand off-ish (not helpful for someone who is anxious for treatment). Never was asked if I had any concerns or talked through the procedure. Hoping that if I return things improve as UF health in general is good! One side note: if you prefer to lay down for a blood test/drawing procedure, I am not sure that this place offers that, at least not for me.

KRS 1111 Ive had good experience with my doctor. Only 4 stars because today I went in to make an appointment and the lady who helped me was unfriendly and seems to not like her job. I dont know whats going on there, but if the face of your company is glum and unfriendly, you need to address that!

megan pelley Im only given 2 stars because the Doctors and NP are great!! The staff doesnt care about patients needs. The office manger needs more training when it comes to how she speaks to people or helping them! Its been well over 2 months and I still cant get the medicine I need unless I get samples.

Tabring Lee Danielle was very polite and Assistive. She welcomed us with a smile and made check in smooth. She also checked me out with the same positive attitude. She’s an example of excellence in customer service!

Manee Shrestha I just went here Dec7 last week.The service was very fast and clean with new building. I was taken in very quickly in the bed. The nurses , doctors and staffs were so kind and amazing. I got my results for CT and Urinary infection immediately but I ‘m still waiting for my blood test result now. I hope so I will get it soon . Thank you so much.!!

Rachael Phillips I went into the ER a few days ago after experiencing vision loss and eye swelling. Without examining me, a medical professional who I believe (was named Michelle) walked into the room, took one look at me and told me to simply try hot compresses. At this point, the swelling was so extreme I could hardly keep my eye open. Despite explaining that I had already been trying hot compresses for weeks, despite explaining that I had been through two courses of antibiotics, and despite that I was in severe pain, I was told simply to do more hot compresses. I was also told that my antibiotics were pointless and that this could not be solved with antibiotics. I left, feeling as though I was “wasting their time”, only to go to bed and wake up unable to see in my right eye at all. I had severe swelling, and upon visiting a different ER, they were shocked and frustrated on my behalf. I had an amazing team of three professionals who were very attentive and actually examined me. They rushed me into contrast CT, marked me as a ESI 2, and prescribed me a very high dose of antibiotics. Long story short, based on the swelling I was experiencing, I was at risk for vision loss and much worse, but rather than being examined, I was met with a medical professional who never got closer to 4 feet away from me, and told me that I shouldn’t be on vision saving medication. I am shocked and disappointed to say the least, and the cherry on top was that even though I was rushed out and made to feel as if I was wasting time, I was the only patient (not an expression, LITERALLY) in the entire waiting room. Overall, though I am generally disappointed in the health care system, I was remarkably disappointed in this facility.

Michelle McDonough The professionalism and care I received at this clinic was beyond anything I have ever experienced. I’m sick and not feeling well. Had a bad experience at a completely different clinic/company and all of the nurses and providers were beyond nice and caring at this location. They listened to me and had me feeling better and on the mend when I left the clinic. Ladies thank you so much, I was having a really hard week and your compassion along with the amazing care you provided has lifted my spirits and health. Thank you for what you do! I appreciate you and everything you did for me during my visit. I am so thankful for compassion you gave me when I felt so low and also scared.

Valerie Keeney I had a great experience at this location today. First I want to say I was hesitant to go since I was very dissatisfied with previous visits years back. The waiting room was hot, stuffy, dirty and the front staff were inefficient and obviously overworked and stressed. Today was the exact opposite. The waiting room temperature was very pleasant and very tidy. Lots of seating and a nice area for kids. The receptionist, whose name I forgot to get, was delightful! She patiently waited while I fumbled around for my cards and was very efficient. Nurse Tammy was sympathetic to my obvious ill health as she noted my complaints. Allison, the NP, was also top notch. Compassionate, friendly and patient. I had an appointment and only waited around 15 minutes. Thanks for great service.

Phillip Pinon Even if you are insured, this is an HCA outpost and they will charge you a non-refundable, out-of-pocket "facility fee" for each visit ($120). They give you a form saying that you "may" have to pay this fee, without even giving the amount. Spent an hour on the phone with HCA, no one could confirm whether I would be charged or not. I made the mistake of trusting the last employee I talked to who said that I would not. 2 weeks later I got the bill (FYI, there is an article in the 3-26-24 New York Times about this scam).

Juan Kabu The phone operator (lady) is very rude. Her tone of voice sounded amiable when she picked up the phone. But when she heard me speak (latino accent), her tone totally changed. She made me feel that she is superior and I am a worthless mediocre folk wasting her time. People like her shouldnt be sitting on that desk answering phone calls. She represents the organization. And to act with entitlement over other ethnicity is simply detrimental to Senior Healthcare Center.

Peg Futvoye-Sterling One of Our Lords Promises of His Power is to make good out of what the devil intends to destroy. My son contracted infections. That led us on a journey of hospitals to address his severely damaged heart. And "This" hospital and its entire "Staff" has "His Heart" and my son doing miraculously well. One of the most priceless attributes is ... not only do they care ... but by golly if there is a way ... they will find it ... you can bet your life on it ! Thank you so much. Bobby & Peg My son, Bobby, passed away September 5th, 2024 ... BUT ONLY AFTER he conquered every single infectious assault ... he never gave up, and neither did all the doctors, nurses, and support staff ... thank you for fighting with my son.

Ramona Dillahunty I have had 6+ surgeries along with one upcoming. The doctors are excellent. The facility is great and clean. Nurses are phenomenal. I guess my only negative would be the food

G Brown Jr Visiting from Wa State: I came in experiencing flu-like symptoms. Not realizing how dehydrated I was. Got checked into the lobby, sat down for a few minutes and felt as though i was going to throw up. I stood up walked towards the door and somehow ended up blacking out and falling to the floor. When I came to, the doctors, staff had already called 911 amd was assisting me off the ground and was keeping me alert and calm. I just want to say thank you all for helping me and I see why your clinic has great reviews!

amber davis One Stop Urgent Care is filled with some of the nicest employees ever! The staff are extremely knowledgeable! The office and rooms are super clean & well kept up with! My husband and I both come here whenever we need our medical needs met!

Toni D Select specialty is a top notch care unit. I would give it 10 stars if I ! The Director, Jim, Is kind courteous, and really cares about his patients. He goes over and beyond, taking the time to explain things to our family and helped us through a very difficult time. The doctors are amazing, very thorough, knowledgeable, and kind. Every nurse, cna and aid Was also kind, courteous, and extremely caring. If your loved one goes to this hospital, they are very lucky. The care is the absolute best. Thank you select specialty for everything. The Kolianos Family

Nikki Jefferson-Bradley I cannot express enough gratitude to the incredible team at Select Specialty Hospital for the exceptional care they provided to my mother after her extensive, life-altering surgery. From the moment she arrived, it was clear that she was in the hands of compassionate, skilled professionals who truly put patient care first. My mother required specialized care, including management of a tracheostomy and feeding tube, which can be overwhelming for any family. However all of nurses, CNAs and respiratory therapists were absolutely amazing! Even the dietary and cleaning staff were fantastic. I cant thank Jim enough for the love and attention he provided my mother. He addressed our concerns with patience and empathy, and treated her with the dignity and respect she deserved, just as he would his own family member Thanks to Jim and the and the rest of the staff my mother received the critical care she needed and made significant progress in her recovery. I wholeheartedly recommend this hospital to anyone needing specialized, long-term acute care. Their dedication and expertise are truly unmatched.

Nan Leggett The entire staff was amazing, from the ER to the 3rd floor and everyone in between! Thank you nurse Christy and the whole 3rd floor team! I couldn’t have asked for better care. Everyone made a scary event bearable. Everyone was so pleasant, attentive, caring and professional. The facility was clean and well maintained. Even the food was good.

Ashley Gentry I chose this hospital because they really are kind and helpful here. I had a baby here 2 years ago, and had to come back due to complications a week later. They took amazing care of me. I knew it would be similar this time, and I was right! Everyone from intake onward was wonderful. The wait was 3 hours (which felt excruciating since I was sick), but they made it more bearable. If I can help it, Im always coming back here!

Angela Rogers I had the best experience at this hospital. I was having the worst day possible and I am so thankful to God that I was able to make it through the night. Upon arriving to their ER, they did not allow me the opportunity to sit in the waiting area for 2 seconds before the doctor was their at my side assisting me to the room. The staff was awesome and they made sure that I had everything that I needed and much more. Amanda my nurse on the very night made it very pleasant, family oriented, friendly, professional, relaxing. My nurse tech Joy was great and made my stay peaceful and pleasant. The staff at HCA Florida Ocala Hospital went above and beyond the call of duty to make sure that my stay was pleasant. Plus making sure that I got the property care that I needed for the reason of my admit.

Taylor If i could give this hospital a 0 i would. The nurses and techs were super friendly and helpful but as far as the doctors it’s a joke. My grandmother went in on Tuesday night with acute kidney failure and she was severely dehydrated. They gave her an IV in the waiting room and she had some other issues so they admitted her and put her in the hallway for 5 hours before putting her somewhere else. She finally got a room but it was a waiting game. She’s been in there for 5 days now with chronic diarrhea and has yet got any solutions. We’ve only seen a doctor a couple of times. She got a test done and the doctor never came to talk to her or even put in the results. They do not do anything in a timely manner and I feel like she’s being wrote off when she’s been having a problem for 2 months. They just recommended something she’s already tried and doesn’t work and an over the counter medicine. If you think about coming here, you’re better off going to Advent or west Marion because this place is a joke. Every nurse and tech we’ve had have been great and it’s not their fault their bosses are terrible.

Robert Johnson The pediatric on 2nd floor and staff were great... it wasnt until I grabbed lunch with my family at the Subway there and became of victim of racism from the African American woman with a face piercing. If the roles reversed Im sure things would have turned out differently. She needs to be fired immediately.

Robin Brady Great nurses, I had an appointment but showed up 3 hours early bc thats the only time my ride could drop me off and they went a head and took me in! They were so nice and respectful!

Tee Necole I broke my ankle 12/13/24 & all the staff has been extremely helpful and nice during every visit!! Today was my last visit 03/13/24…. I’m going to miss Dr. Christoper Reb , HE IS THE BEST. He helped me to a speedy recovery. I love this VA Facility ❤️❤️❤️

charles danforth I managed to get a cyst on my left wrist which I was referred from Tallahassee va to plastic in Gainesville. Drove the three hours to Gainesville just to be told by plastic that I had to have a MRI.two months now, after MRI, waiting another month for neurology. The looks like another two months to get back to plastic for removal. Mr Collins states they are going to get things done in a timely manner. Even for the government six months isnt a timely thing. It seems everyone is just pushing it off on a different department. I use to trust the va for my medical needs,but its seem to gone to the crapper. Elon and Mr Collins need to look at these places with a little more concern.

Reda Lawton My self & my husband were both patients of UF Health neurology. For me, it was migraines & the solution was to 1st, place me on Gabapentin. Gabapentin can affect your blood sugar levels & though mine were climbing after being placed on it, it was ignored. I took myself off Gabapentin to get my A1C back under control. The next solution I was given was the highly toxic Botox injections. Yes, they made a difference, but its a toxic substance being injected in over 30 areas around the crown of my head. Now, skipping over to my husbands story, he has been having severe neurological issues for several years & was getting worse. He started seeing UF Health Neurology around 2016. He actually went through 5 of their neurologist over the past several years. They refused to actually diagnose him with MS, even though all the evidence was there, as he cannot have an MRI due to having a pacemaker. Many years of testing & still no treatment for him as they sit back & watch him get to the point he could barely walk. In my frustration, I sought out a new neurologist. The 3rd one we were connected with in the summer of 2024, has saved my husbands life he was not controlled by politics as UF Health is. Thank GOD for Dr. Garewall in Ormond Beach for diagnosing & treating my husband, that has now been diagnosed with CIPD, MS & CMT. He ordered IVIG Infusions for him, which have saved his life. The Gamunex-C my husband is infused with, comes from people donating their blood plasma. Its working! Just 4 infusions in & my husbands life has improved dramatically!!! UF Health will not acknowledge this wonderful therapy & provide it to their patients. Back to me. After the journey of finding someone to treat my husband, I got to wondering "Am I getting the best care from UF Health Neurology?" after they were ready to just let my husband continue down the road to what ultimately would have been his death if he stayed with them. So I sought out a new neurologist as well and was lucky to find one that was willing to treat me with something much less toxic. Emgality is a monoclonal type of medication & it works! Its a lot more natural for your body than the Botox toxin. To all of you reading this post, please keep fighting for treatment that makes sense & refuse to accept there is nothing better that can be done! This clinic failed us and have failed 2 dear friends of ours. Never give up! God bless you all & keep fighting!

Jan Schneider Worth the wait. We were rescheduled twice and it took about 9 mounts to get in but very worth the wait for Parkinson’s. Excellent evaluations by physician, speech, OT and PT. Easy access by car and all services are in the same clean and well kept building.

Tara Moritz Erin smith has absolutely no bedside manner. During my unfortunate need to have an appointment with her instead of my usual doctor I was treated with sarcasm and zero empathy. I have waited to make this review after delivering my baby just in case I would have the misfortune of having her in the delivery room. She needs to read up on hg pregnancy and have some compassion for women who are suffering daily instead of making jokes.

Casey Neel Absolutely love coming here and being greeted by Essence and Amanda in the front before all my appointments! They make me feel like I am at home! Katie is a fantastic midwife and delivers amazing care for me!

Sheeds L I had what they consider “An Annual” appointment, but It did not feel like an annual appointment at all! The provider Nicole Mathew came into the appointment unprofessional with a dress on and a hoodie with the hospital name on it. She kept asking me what I came in here for and I told her an annual for you to check me. She asked what test I wanted. I really didn’t know. I’m from out of state and the doctor usually tells me all the test I need. When I asked if she was going to physically check me she said “oh yeah” then proceeds to listen to my heart and my lungs then puts 2 fingers on my stomach and sent me on my way! It was the worst experience I’ve ever had with a provider!

Rachel Gatto Hands down the best doctors office I’ve been to. The staff is always so kind and friendly and makes it feel very warm and welcoming! Love it here highly recommend

Evelyn Bachar I just moved to the area and my daughter who’s 3 developed a rash that was not going away. I brought her to this hospital and everyone I came into contact were so kind and attentive. Doctor Ashley Rumnock immediately knew what was wrong. After picking up the prescription my daughter felt instant relief. I cannot thank you enough. My daughter was miserable for several days and the staff here and the doctors were absolutely amazing. Thank you for all you do.

James Mills This is the first time I had been back to the hospital for years and I was greeted by two lovely and directed to the sign in counter. At the sign in I got no smile but I did somewhat of a professional mannerism. When I was told to where I was to go one of the nice ladies who greeted me came over to me and asked did I want a wheelchair cause of my leg, considering I had to go across the hospital I gladly said yes. She was very sweet and conversations was a pleasant experience. She dropped me off at the waiting room and shortly after that I was greeted by the X-ray technician she took me into the room to get 3 views of my knee. It seemed like forever since she was having issues of getting what she needed for the doctor. She finally got the x-rays and she gave me to the next tech for a brain scan. In there he was very sweet, kind and professional mannerism. He put a head mechanism on my head gently and he helped me at every step through out the process. Test were taken swiftly and professional by this tech. Thinking of the complete experience it was considered a good time length for the appointment. Thanks Putnam County hospital for helping me.
