My best friend of 35 years is being treated currently there. The staff is great, the food is decent. They have been taking good care of my friend. However, communication is definitely something to be desired... Otherwise I would have given them five

This is about Allspice Cafe. The hospital is good. Dr. Amer and his team have been great! Hospital food good. But don't try to take your hospitalized person to the Allspice Cafe. Tried to treat my husband. He was informed he wasn't allowed to eat there. Today we tried to get a drink and take a break from his room...he has a super tiny old room where anyone visiting has to sit sideways in the chair and not face him. This time he was informed he wasn't even allowed to sit in there. I don't have words for this. But I can take him OUTSIDE and sit in the car. Really??

I went to UF emergency room because I had swelling in my face from an infected tooth. I was taken to triage and processed almost immediately. I went to Ascension and another emergency dentist before I went to UF health and those two places did nothing. UF gave me an IV fluid drip for antibiotics, it did help with the pain ALOT. They sent me for an MRI to check for an abscess. They did locate one. I think the dental department at UF is called “OMFS”. Someone from that department came and drained the fluid as best as they could and that provided some relief. She also prescribed a medicated mouthwash. UF was very helpful and the doctor who drained my mouth was very comforting. I was very irritated and afraid of getting a needle in my mouth but she made me feel very comfortable and safe. I will be returning to get the dental work I need in the future.

Visited my sister in labor and delivering 04.16.2026 and I would like to give a shout out to the resident ally bear (not sure if it's spelled this way) who was assisting my sister post delivery on the 3rd floor. Her bed side manners are great and she was very very kind and helpful. And the lady at the desk who looks kinda Filipino (not sure ) with the short black hair was very kind when we needed refreshments. They made the visit 5 stars.

Urology team - doctors, anesthesiologists are experienced and professional. Support staff, very uneven. Sierra from night crew and Paulette were great. PT came by to say " hello" the next morning and then I never saw them again. So I never got a chance to walk until I was discharged - that's not right. Surgery coordinator, one in particular - T- did not return 2 phone calls. But their answering service message says they will. Nurse K ran through protocols for catheter use and acted like she was rushed- bedside manner should improve as she gains more experience. I had to ask how to use the catheter. Her assistant, intern Connor, was amazing and stayed with me by my wheelchair until I was released. I have not had luck with the urology hotline so far. Different people answer phones and give different answers. But will try to give them another chance. Healthcare in America- especially communication and follow up is very average - the equipment and toys are amazing now, and the paperwork to cover themselves is extensive, but the personal attention and follow up from a handful of these people is uneven to average. Some people were great.
