Staff issues: Despite the fact that I completed a pre-visit questionnaire, much of my information was not captured and /or not correct staff at check-in were not accommodating - three people at the desk - one person seemed to be in charge, while the others sat and watched. As a handicapped person, I was puzzled that I was kept waiting (standing!) for more than 5 minutes as "person in charge" did whatever it was that was her priority. check-out and scheduling person did not provide adequate information re next appointmen, particularly directions and location, I expected better.

This was a first appointment with a new doctor in my ongoing care at UAMS. Everything was positive and I trust that we are moving in a good direction

I was here for 3 month check up after finishing chemo and it was first time to meet my new doctor and so I had a nurse I'd never seen before. I did not feel rushed at all and Dr. Murkajee answered my questions. He ordered a pet scan and I was called this morning to set appointment. I'm glad I came to UAMS for treatment for non Hodgkin's lymphoma. My brother has been coming for several years for a blood disease and he highly recommended UAMS and so would I.
