First impressions are everything and it didnt happen for me at this hospital…read more Parking is literally non-exsistant. I assume due to construction there is only 1 garage for both the hospital and the dr bldg. Don't bother trying to get a spot as you go up, just go straight to roof where I eventually found one. It cost to park, take your ticket, they'll give you maybe $1 off if you validate it. If you can't find a spot, valet the car. It costs as well. The new concept of everybody checking in at the front before going to their respective waiting rooms is here. Its confusing since no one seems to want to help. Again first timers be aware of your surroundings. Communication lacks here with the particular office I was at. They may care but its more of a revolving door. The nurse i dealt with could use a few lessons in her approach. I won't get into details but if I stick with this particular practice I'll be going to their satellite location, not returning here.

The check in and nurse were great. Friendly and efficient. But the protocol is an expensive joke…read more Three appointments, at $100 a piece just to have a mole removed. Plus, the entire cost of the procedure because it's not covered. I asked why can't you just cut it off like my last dermatologist? They said that's not how they do it. Three visits, then the more expensive "cosmetic" department would "possibly" remove it. What a bureaucratic run around to charge more money. Absolute sham and a waste of my time and their resources.

DO NOT GO TO SLUCARE or better known as SLU-I Don't-Care. The opticians are students. The…read moreintern/resident optician insists that not being able to read street signs and menus is 20/20 vision. You will never see a doctor/MD. I have been seen by these students and this intern twice in a 12 month period. I have yet to receive an accurate prescription for eye glasses and contact lenses. I will never go there again. I found a wonderful ophthalmology doctor in West County.

Great signage to direct you through the building and a ton of helpful staff. The facility was clean, well lit and the decorations very children friendly.

Horrible ER visit. ZERO STARS IF POSSIBLE. We went in for my daughter who had been struggling to…read morebreath and had been to Mercy two days before. we managed to get checked in and placed in a room quickly. After that everything went wrong. They not once checked her 02 levels after being placed in a room, or placed her on oxygen. I had to go find a nurse when it was time for my daughters medication. had to remind them 3 times about the medicine, while my daughter was wheezing. After 3 hours my daughter and I asked for a drink and snack we did not receive those until we were leaving and I told them I had asked multiple times without receiving anything. After 4 hours of sitting waiting for chest x-ray results we finally hear that we are going to be released. Three hours after that i had to hunt down a nurse tell them we were walking out the door in 5 minutes with or without the discharge papers. Both doctors (one I believe was a resident) and all the nurses were sitting at their desk laughing and chatting doing nothing. After all this I still have to pay for the bad patient care!?! This place is exactly what's wrong with the health care in the US. We we NEVER go here again unless we are dying and there are no other options.

M. Louay Omran is a St. Louis Magazine "best doctor," with an impressive curriculum vitae (you can…read morefind it on the SLU Medical School website or google it) that inspires confidence. As I've said elsewhere, I really like practitioners who work in a teaching hospital and/or medical school because I believe there's a lot of competency and accountability built into such an interconnected system. Not only is there opportunity for consultation with fellow professors who are researching the latest and best, but there's also the instruction and mentoring of students. Personally, I know that when I have to teach something, I learn the subject matter better than when I am the end user. The teaching hospital and medical school connections make me more confident about the quality of care I'm receiving. And, the more confidence I have, the less anxiety I experience, which is a good thing since there's already plenty of anxiety built into receiving health care. Once, I was with an old friend before a procedure when the doctor entered with a "Good Morning. How are you feeling?" My friend replied, "I'm okay. But more important, how are YOU feeling?" When I saw Dr. Omran, it didn't matter so much how I felt. More important, he looked confident, caring, rested, and ready. The procedure went quickly, was painless, and had a good outcome. Thank you!
