My visit was routine annual visit..no more than 30 min with doctor yet I waited for an hour to be seen . Was there for 2 1/2 hours. I don't understand why this happens so often at UAMS?

Dr Samantha McKelvey is an excellent listener and one who definitely is aware of your history before your examination. She is extremely capable, helpful, and kind. She is a "keeper" for UAMS!

I was very pleased with the doctor. She seemed to know all about my past history and what I was about to do. She asked me if I was depressed and I told her I wasn't definitely not. Just happy to be able to come back after 19 years or whatever since I've had my double mastectomy. I think everybody should go there for their treatment if they need it.
