They're slow. Wait times are always a hour or more. They're not adamant about refilling your medicine. This past experience was HOE

Hi, my name is [PATIENT NAME] and I've been coming there since [DATE] when I had breast cancer and the doctors are the best. The staff workers and all... all of them are just nice people, even the kitchen worker. I just think that the UAMS is a blessing to all of us who have to be coming there and I just, you know, pray that they always be there for us and the doctor that I'm seeing there she is amazing and I just like everyone at the UAMS because they're nice. They know how to talk to you, they know how to treat you. They just treat you with respect and I just love them because I know they love me too and they love all their patients and that's what have me coming back. So have a blessed day. Bye.

I had trouble somewhat understanding her speech. And I was a little bit... I was a little bit disappointed that I got a different recommendation from Dr. Tillman then the recommendation that Dr. Malapati gave me. But I did some extra calling and and got that squared away.

Dr. Malapotti is good, and I am thankful she is on my team with Dr. Ochoa and Dr. Eyegere. Dr. Yoo did not seem in sync or as personable/welcoming. It is hard to know someone on such a short notice and all our precautions, expressions are limited, so take that into account. Dr. Malapotti was/is excellent and asked about me personally, emotionally, and physically and drew out on paper what she was trying to explain when we did not understand enough! This is Fabulous on her part! She and Ochoa and Eyegere all worked quickly this week to get my labs and echo and now my port done so the chemo can get started asap. So Thankful for the TEAM approach at UAMS for us women and breast cancer! It ROCKS!!
