[NAME] at the front desk was wonderful! She noticed I was using crutches so she quickly got a wheelchair for me. Very polite and thoughtful! My nurse, [NAME] was very cordial, thorough and polite.

My experience with Dr. Steliga was terrific. My experience with the CT scan area was extremely frustrating. I had an [TIME] appointment for a CT scan with a [TIME] appointment with Dr. Stelgia. They did not do my scan until [TIME], 3 hours later. I pray I never have to have another scan done at UAMS.

Everyone at UAMS has been very helpful in answering my questions. I'm very pleased. I live in [NORTHEAST ARKANSAS] and will have to go back to UAMS for a covid before I have EGD ( scope) that's the only thing I wish I didn't have to do but I totally understand why in case I don't get the results in time for my scope-
