Just that I appreciate everything that all of the doctors and nurses have done for me at UAMS since the very first time i entered through the front door! I feel like these doctors are so very highly educated and knowledgeable and it makes me feel as taken care of as I was when I was at [OTHER HOSPITAL] as a teen. Thank you

my experience with my doctor, has been most definitely a good experience for me, for about 21 or 22 years. My doctor is part of my family. He explains everything that I need to know, and not worry about. My doctor is awesome.

The front desk needs a lot of training in working patients. The professionalism is horrible and we are treated poorly. The tone used during interaction and just getting general information is very derogatory in their responses. After doctor's visit, check signage is not clear enough. I stopped on the opposite where I check in and the lady was very nasty in directing to the check out. Unacceptable for individuals working with the public. Have you all considered having mystery patients strictly designed to help in improving the overall patient experience?

The nurse was not a good listener. I asked her to redo my Blood Pressure test because she was talking to me while taking it therefore it was high.
