I always take the stairs when I'm in the outpatient building to avoid being in the elevator. The stairwell was very unkempt to be located in a medical facility.

I've been a patient of Dr. Saccente for about five years now, I guess. And he's always been very courteous, professional, as has his staff. And he explains things to me in a way that I understand what's happening and what we're going to do, and he explains the options that I always have. And I would definitely recommend him to any of my friends.

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.
