My husband had outpatient surgery on 12/20/24. Our experience with everyone was fabulous. Most caring staff ever. I would highly recommend Broadlawns Hospital!
Response from the owner
Thank you so much. We really appreciate your kind words and will be sure to pass your feedback on to the staff.
Delivered my first baby at Methodist after my water unexpectedly broke two weeks before my due date. I was so overwhelmed when I got to triage, but had such compassionate care from the start, beginning with the midwife (Susan) and nurse (Kayla)that helped me accept that I needed to be admitted for the safety of me and baby. We continued to get exceptional care from all of the nurses that took care of me and my baby before, during, and after delivery, and the physicians who gave me my epidural (Dr. Meredith) and delivered my son (Dr. Meierding). Wonderful care start to finish and I am forever grateful.

Thank you for your kind words! We ve passed your note along to our care team.
They have treated me good at the VA. It is still an organization that is government ran, so it isn't exactly efficient, but they have some good, caring people working there.
Been a huge staple for my recovery and they have seen me back at my worst. Now I have been in recovery for almost 2 years. Thanks to all the staff nurses and providers they have an all in one healthcare facility for people with chemical dependency. And the thing that matters most to me is they actually care.
