Well it's never a happy wonderful 5 star time when you're admitted to the hospital, except maybe when you've just had a child; however there is always an occasion for 5 star care, and that's just what I received at Nebraska Medicine.
I truly appreciated the professionalism and kindness of the Emergency Room staff. They were very busy, however I was never kept waiting for the attention of a Dr. or a nurse. I did not do well for a couple hours, but there was staff with me the whole time.
Fortunately for me I was able to recover quickly and with some like style changes I am marching into good health and well being!!

These people saved my life. They diagnosed a rare condition that two other hospitals couldn't. From aids, to surgeons, I've never been treated so well by medical staff. They were professional yet cheerful. The men treated me with dignity. Modestly. They wouldn't let me die when I begged them to. They would to have had to, but they persuaded me to let them continue the healing process. My home away from home. I love them all!

HORRIBLE! It was supposed to be a sedated MRI, I waited 4 weeks for! IT WAS a JOKE! They had to keep redoing images because my BACK and LEGS were jumping the whole time! WON'T RECCOMEND & WON'T GO BACK!

Really not a great experience at the er. There's no nurses or doctors or other patients. We've been waiting for 4 and nothing happens. This is getting very frustrating. No one goes to urgent care cause they can wait forever and a day. I get that they're busy but damn..then we got told we can't leave the room as if we were grounded. seriously worst hospital in the history of hospitals possible ever. Doctor was a nice guy though.

Very disappointed in care provided. Nursing seems sorely under staffed. Although they frequently have cell phone in hand. Communication between staff (doctors and nursing staff)is lacking. Communication of providers and patients is insufficient. Facility is dirty dusty and run down. And should we talk about HIPPA....nothing to talk about....it doesn't exist there. Hep locks do not get flushed even after several days....negligent much? Showers/bed baths not offered to patient even after 3 days in-house. Are they trying for some nosocomial infections?

The transplant team will not consider your loved one if they are even slightly over 70. Very disappointed in the heartless attitude the Doctors showed towards my mother. Other states transplant teams are far above Nebraska.

I have seizures the same time every month and none during 2 pregnancies. I have kept journals during this entire experience. They kept saying it wasn't hormonal. I insisted they checked my hormones but they refused. They refused to let me see a nutritionist there. They had me get a VNS sugery. It caused breathing problems and pain so I got it removed .They insisted and even tried to bribe me to try the RNS surgery but I refused. They scheduled the surgery 5 times and I finally told them it was harassment so they stopped. My family doctor is treating my hormones and I am finally seizure free after 11 years of having seizures and dealing with epileptologists using me as a guinea pig. I have trust issues because of UNMC, but I also thank them because I know how to say NO know!

Great hospital and school. Some of the best doctors and staff in this entire region. Amazing staff and dedication to this community and Omaha is lucky to call it ours. Highly recommend a tour of the campus to see the new additions and remodels. It is an amazing campus with lots to offer. Always happy to have this place have my back when I need it. They truly care about their work and about you.

5+ hours in the ER. I was taken back right away due to my issue. I made a horrible mistake going to Neb Medicine. I should have gone somewhere else. Next time, I will either deal with it at home or go to a different hospital.

I am not impressed at all with this hospital. The quality of care was questionable. My mother was transferred by ground ambulance from a hospital 2 1/2 hours away that could not do her procedure. We arrived after 11:00 pm and she did not see a doctor until we demanded one at 10:45 the next morning. She was told at 1:30 pm that she could have food and water, after determining that she would not be having surgery, at 6:00 pm she got water...still no food. They did not check on her unless we called them. My sister, a former nursing home caregiver helped her to the bathroom and adjusted her bed more than the nurses did. I hope we never have to come here again.

Not impressed with this hospital at all and we will never go back. My husband went in for a kidney stone removal. He told them upfront that he would not have any transportation until 1 pm because I had to work. They told him that was not a problem but then after his procedure I was called at 10:00 at work to come get him because they needed his bed. My husband did not feel that the nurses really cared or showed much compassion or concern for him. The hospital itself is falling apart and seems very dirty.
Update: Two weeks later my husband went to Methodist for the same procedure and the experience there was amazing. It made this place seem even worse!

I work here, and I don't find it that exciting. It is a hospital and they have been really nice and responsive wheneever I have been there. You can take a walk around but there isn't a lot to see around except a couple of places. Not a place for a laxy stroll or a leisurely visit, but not a completely boring place either. The research buildings look nice and the towers around the campus are kind of cool.

Went to the Nebraska Med. Ctr. emergency dept. for chest pain in the middle of the week. Waited for nearly 2 hours after being taken back to a room and never saw a doctor. We went to Methodist and saw a doctor in 10 minutes. Ended up being a pulmonary embolism. The only reason we rated them one star was because zero stars was not an option.

I'm pretty sure I was on compromised patient monitors when I had severe lower left quadrant abdominal pain. They sent me to psych ward and I got little help with my somatic issues. I wish things played out differently. If no one messed with me where is Alan Kolok? Seems like he just left when I was trying to get forensic hair analysis which proved high uranium exposure. It looks like they tried to make the uranium exposure look like it was from smoking. Why'd they yell at my psychiatrist to get their medical records back after trying to get the forensic data?

MRI was done with work comp autho. then, UNMC say they sent bill to Worker's Compensation but they denied it. So, they say I owe them now. I told them I don't have money cuz I cant work cuz work comp injury. I ask for Financial Assistance, I fill out paperwork. Then they say took too long to send in paperwork . I still cant work, still cant pay, they still say I am responsible even though I had authorization from work comp in the beginning.

Horrible, avoid at all costs. Will not treat underlying issues. They will lie and commit malpractice and Medicare fraud. Once admitted for endocarditis took 12 hours in emergency room before moved up to a real room. I was in excruciating pain and was put on pain medication for 8 hours until another doctor came on duty and abruptly taken off because of their opinion. This place is pathetic and I am considering legal action against them for other issues. I would NEVER recommend this place to anyone! Overcrowded, outdated, and filthy as well. Hire some proper cleaning staff, polite and knowledgeable nurses and doctors instead of opinionated and arrogant people that think they know everything. All people are not the same and not everyone has the same exact symptoms and complications for every illness. The doctors are of the variety that come in to see you every day only to give you 5 minutes of their opinion and will NOT listen to you then brush you off and leave. They charge you separately for their time for a $250 to $300 for "20 to 30 minutes consultation" fee every day.... for 5 to 10 minutes of hot air. I could learn more about my condition watching talk shows on television every morning than listening to theses quacks.

I have been a patient @ UNMC for quite a while due to referals from my PCP @ the air force base. I have had only the best experiences there. I've been seen by the gen surgery dept, pulmonary, cardiology , hepatology depts. Ive had lab work, lots of CT scans, ultrasounds, a bronchoscopy, EP study (heart cath) & surgery there. I've had great experiences with all the nurses, techs & doctors, but the registration staff can be a little iffy at times, lol. Would I recommend them? Absofreakenlutely!

I changed my doctor because he wasn't part of UNMC. I have been a patient of this hospital for over 20 years. I have always received professional and kind service from the front desk to the testing labs. The doctors and nurses as well.l always recommend UNMC.
