We had a terrifying…read moreexperience yesterday evening when we had to bring in our two-year-old Great Pyrenees mix for a major laceration. From the second we arrived, Dr. Pearson and the entire care team--Megan, Ethan, and Nicole (the CEC)--were absolutely incredible. They provided top-tier medical care for our girl, but what I appreciated most was how they handled my wife and me. We were in a total state of panic, and they stayed calm, kept us informed, and treated us with so much empathy. It's rare to find a team that can balance high-level emergency medicine with such genuine bedside manner. Dr. Pearson is a total pro, and the nursing staff made us feel like our pup was their only priority. If you're in the Austin area and find yourself in a pet emergency, this is the only place I'd trust.

Everyone from the front desk to the imaging area was so kind, helpful and knowledgeable. The nurses were thorough, professional, and caring. The radiology tech was one of the nicest people I've met in a minute! The doctor actually spoke to me like a real person. This was in stark contrast to the CareNow clinic I visited earlier in the day wherein the doc stared at his computer screen as he typed the whole time he was in the room with me. At Ally, the doc had a conversation and let me have a voice in my care plan. She actually seemed like she cared about what was going on with me even though we didn't really figure it out. She made she I was safe to go about life and try to figure it out with my pcp, which was all I needed. I had seen the Ally logo around but didn't know what it was.

Hospitals have their challenges, but my experience here was better than at most others. Not every…read moretechnician or nurse may excel, and the doctors might have their off moments, but overall, the team is genuinely trying to do its best with the resources it has. My father was admitted over a holiday, which made things even more challenging, but everyone was at least willing to listen--something I can't always say has been my experience elsewhere. I want to highlight a couple of exceptional team members: a nurse named Sabreen and a PT/wound care nurse named Melissa. Both are five-star professionals who deserve raises for their outstanding care. Although this hospital is not located near us, I am grateful we made the drive here, per our doctor's recommendation. Parking is convenient, and there are plenty of nearby dining options. The hospital is undergoing renovations, so noise can be an issue at times, but I understand that such work has to be done eventually.

I had previously visited another ER a week prior where I was diagnosed with something mild, but I knew something wasn't right so again after my symptoms flared up again I decided to visit this Family Emergency Room in Georgetown. From the moment I arrived here, the experience was completely different in the best way possible. I was taken to the back in a timely manner, within 15 minutes of arriving, which was a stark contrast to other emergency rooms where I've waited hours, even while struggling to breathe! The receptionist immediately recognized the urgency of my situation, brought a nurse out to assess me, and ensured my emotional response was met with compassion and I was taken back quickly. Every staff member I encountered was kind, attentive, and genuinely caring. They listened carefully to my symptoms without rushing or dismissing my concerns, which is unfortunately something I've experienced elsewhere. I never felt like I was just another patient being pushed through a system. Instead, I felt heard and treated like a person who truly mattered. Within a short amount of time, they were able to properly evaluate, diagnose, and begin relieving my symptoms. Their efficiency, combined with their thoroughness, made a huge difference in my care and comfort. This clinic also offers testing capabilities that many other facilities do not and accepts a wide range of insurance plans, which is incredibly helpful. Dr. Valentini was especially helpful, professional, and reassuring throughout the entire process. I am beyond grateful for the level of care I received and would 100% recommend this clinic to anyone, no matter how minor or severe their symptoms may seem. I am confident they will provide the proper attention, compassion, and treatment you deserve!!

It's weird to love an ER this much. Here is why this place is the best:…read more -They operate like a full-service emergency room and are federally required to be treated as in-network for all *eligible* visitors (must actually be an emergency visit). Their billing person confirmed this. Their website has a lot of info about the billing process as well. -They are flexible and will work with you to negotiate your dues to get the accounts closed out. I was stressing about the bills but their super nice billing lady helped us out. -Open 24/7. I looked at other options that were technically deemed in-network for my insurance plan and some were closed on Sunday. One of our visits was on Easter too. Why even bother with another ER when this place will bill in-network anyway? -Amazing nurses and doctors. Everyone is really nice and patient and takes great care of you. We've been there 3 times since November. Twice for my little guy (he was 1 during our first visit). Nurses and doctors were so nice and patient with him (and he definitely screamed a lot). -It's never crowded or full of sickly people. Not sure if that's a sign they don't have enough business though? PLEASE GO HERE SO THEY DON'T EVER SHUT DOWN. -Easy parking. -There's a cemetery next door which leaves a chance to make a morbid joke upon your departure.

You know how they sell $10,000 watches that work great but honestly there are watches that are just fine for 3% of the price? I get that when I go to an "emergency room" I'm going to pay extra and I get that. But this was totally off the charts. Yes, they take your insurance here when the other places don't but you can still submit to your *existing insurance* and work their claims dept. Unless you can't stand your insurance, you should do that instead. PROS: - Great service, got right in, no issues with staff. The only reason this isn't a one star review is they did a great job. CONS: - You can fly from LA to NY multiple times for the price of a 20 min visit. Just unreal.

I am 48 and not in a relationship right now. Why would they even perform this? I did not tell them to or give them permission. Also, since it is not described in the bill I would not even have known if my insurance had not told me. I am not working to negotiate this outrageous bill, there is no way I can pay this amount for something that should be in $300 range out of pocket.

I did not feel judged by any of the staff at all. I felt very Seen and they took incredible care of me. I would go there again in a heartbeat. If it's the end of the day and you're not feeling well and you just don't have time to go see your regular GP this is the most excellent option. I do have insurance, but I know that they have a program that will help people without insurance and they do not hide what your charges are gonna be. I appreciate their transparency appreciate their professionalism and this is the second location I visited, and I am a very big fan of ALLY.

Dr. McHugh listened to me, made an accurate diagnosis and prognosis, and offered the correct treatment plan.

No matter how many times I had health insurance changes, I always made sure I would be able to see Dr. Kravitz. I've had other doctors in other cities, but no one came close to Dr. Kravitz's knowledge (26+ years of practice), professional demeanor, and personability. He is knowledgeable on so many topics, and I know I'm able to ask him anything. And you know what? He listens. It's that simple. He sets your chart down, he looks at you, and he listens. Some doctors are just so harried they don't take the time to really let you explain what's happening or how you feel. It really does make the difference. We forget how important it is for a doctor to relate to his patients. I've seen doctors who have been cold, indifferent, uninterested in anything except performing an examination or treating whatever was wrong at the time. Sure, that's fine, but it's the bare minimum; it doesn't set me at ease. When I'm sick, and I'm concerned, Dr. Kravitz demonstrates a level of empathy I've yet to see in another doctor. It also helps he has a sense of humor! Even if he does not accept my insurance, I would only want to have him as my primary care physician. He's known me for years, and knows my medical history better than anyone. I hope to stick with him as long as I can. If you are looking for a new doctor in the area, you will NOT be disappointed. Dr. Kravitz is the real deal, and one of the few people I still trust in the healthcare field. A real winner!
