    Note: This review is for my 6 month experience with the prenatal clinic & birthing (in my case,…read morec-section) floors only. I had a high-risk pregnancy & was here for weekly labs/imaging. It was almost a one hour drive but the care & quality was worth it. The prenatal clinic is very clean, has a large & peaceful waiting room with a garden courtyard & all of the ladies at the front desk have a friendly demeanor. The prenatal radiology team is wonderful, the rooms are well kept & the equipment is the best I've seen. They went above & beyond to send me the regular, 3D images as well as the video footage of my ultrasounds each time that I could upload at home every time. My c-section was preformed & supervised by a very high rated surgeon, experienced calm anesthesiologist, along with the medical student team. It is very important to remember/come in knowing that this is also a learning medical hospital for UW students on their way to becoming doctors themselves who will be part of your surgical team. It isn't something to be alarmed about while they are discussing the progress and confirming things during the operation. This was my first experience with a c-section (or baby) & the surgeon came in the prep room before to discuss things with us, but the best part was a great but respectable sense of humor and personable attitude of him. It created an uplifting atmosphere. Great anesthesiologist who spoke through what he was doing each step. Fantastic nursing team to keep me calm. The surgeon came over with a smile to check in with me every few minutes. My husband had a great experience as well. I didn't get to see our baby girl right away apart from briefly holding her above the curtain but my husband was very involved. They held her on my chest but couldn't hold her until it was complete. I was out of surgery pretty quickly & taken to our room. Very spacious, very clean room with nice bathroom/shower & a wonderful, prompt & personable nursing team throughout the 5 days there. They weren't constantly changing so you built a nice relationship. I recommended one for the Daisy award she was so fantastic with myself & our new baby. Also, really delicious food made to your liking that came up pretty fast. I was eating pancakes quickly after surgery! Great checkout experience showing us how to bathe our little one, use the pumping equipment & get her ready to go. What would I change? Not much. My husband would recommend a more comfortable area to lay down sunce we were there 4 nights. It was pretty cold and there weren't many blankets or comfortable pillows available for him -I brought my own. Very long review, but I wanted to address the whole experience! It was wonderful, from my months of weekly visits, surgery & recovery. Note: my friend has had her five children at each of the hospitals in Madison (as well as Sauk & Reedsburg) and said Meriter was by far the best as well.

    A family member was transferred from another hospital's ER to Unity Point Health - Meriter,…read moreMadison, WI, after we confirmed with their team that we would have opportunities to share pertinent information, communicate with the treating team, and address other ongoing physical medical needs that another physician overseas. Unfortunately, upon their arrival, these assurances were not honored, which negatively impacted care. Specifically: Information Sharing: We were not allowed to share critical medical information upon arrival despite its relevance to treatment and being told to do so by other medical professionals. Communication with the Treating Physician: Despite repeated requests over several days, we were consistently denied access to the treating physician. On Day 1, we requested to speak with the physician and were told they were too busy but might contact us later. This did not happen. On Days 2 and 3, similar requests were met with excuses, delays, and vague assurances. Eventually, we were told that the treating physician would not have contact with us because this was a HIPPA violation. This claim is incorrect, as HIPAA explicitly permits family members to share information with healthcare providers. It was not until late on the third day, after pleading, working with the patient advocate for over 24 hours, and expressing the possibility of the patient checking themselves out, that we were granted a brief meeting at the close of business. The meeting was very limited and still did not address basic questions that we had. The lack of communication and transparency severely compromised patient care. As their family/care team, we coordinate and support their aftercare, and the lack of collaboration from the treating physician undermined this process. With a release of information (ROI) in place, the refusal to engage with us appears not only unprofessional but unethical, immoral and possibly illegal. Medical Needs: We were informed that their ongoing medication needs could not be addressed, with the implication that they could "just get by" without them. These are only the 'highlights' of the failures. The list, unfortunately, is much more exhaustive. This experience was deeply troubling, and we remain appalled by the lack of accountability and transparency from UnityPoint Meriter in Madison, WI. To date, we have not received any explanation for this behavior, which raises concerns about whether such practices are routine in their inpatient unit.

Upon arrival, she informed staff of her health status, but before she could finish, a nurse casually dismissed it. Later, a doctor spoke to her in a condescending and unnecessarily harsh manner, despite her calm and apologetic demeanor. This kind of treatment is unacceptable. I have filed a formal complaint and will be following up to ensure this matter is taken seriously. If necessary, I will seek care elsewhere, but I will not tolerate disrespect toward my family. Since the doctor chose to act this way, I will make sure our voices are heard.

    Convenient two locations…read more Sometimes mistakes are made by the front office and him. BUT he seems really genuine in his apologies and I did return. Furniture is outdated and pretty worn - not falling apart but visibly needs updating. That's all.

    I saw this doctor several years ago. I am finally beginning to recover from the "quick and easy…read morefix" he convinced me to have done, where he cut both of my big toenails, removing about 1/8 inch of nail, going down each side and into the quick. This, supposedly to end all ingrown nail problems. Fact is, I didn't go to see him for this problem and he talked me into it. He didn't address what I wanted to see about, diabetic shoes, and since he knew I was a diabetic, he might have taken into account that it would take a lot longer for both of my feet to heal at the same time. I left his office, barely ble to walk with my husband's help, and in tears because of the horror I saw when he let me look at my feet after he was through. It was bloody as hell, poorly wrapped and well, just messy, as if bandaged in a hurry by an amateur. The nails never came back in right, and the wounds he left festered and had to be constantly disinfected and walking became sheer hell for me. This "simple procedure" was, in my opinion botched, because now, the edges of those nail where he cut about 1/8th of an inch off of each side, well, they grow back, constantly, as a very sharp point that then pierces the flesh on each side of both feet, causing a much worse problem than any ingrown might have been. I'm not a doctor, and it is only my opinion, but people, I hate what this doctor did to me. If you see him, ask questions and think twice before letting him anywhere near you with a scalpel!
