    Dr. Frank Cackowski and Dr. Georgina Marusca are both doctors that I owe more than I will ever be…read moreable to repay in this lifetime to (and I don't mean financially, though insurance is always a pain in the ass to fight with, no matter how good of coverage you have.) They helped give me the best anniversary gift I could have ever asked for: no evidence of disease in my husband, who was diagnosed in April 2024 with stage 3A metastatic testicular cancer. They guided him through months of chemotherapy, adjusting it as necessary (and it was very necessary at times, like after week 2, when bleomycin completely obliterated his WBC count in a 48 hour span and landed him in the hospital w/an opportunistic infection), and checking in on him even when he didn't have an appointment to make sure he was doing okay. The outpatient infusion center staff is fantastic, and is beyond impeccable at their job-they are truly amazing, kind, and extremely competent nurses and techs. I hate that I know any of the staff of Karmanos, but I am so grateful that the staff I've met and those who have cared for my husband have gone so far above and beyond to ensure that he received-and continues to receive-top tier care in a really shitty situation. Oh, and one more thing: as always, fuck cancer!

    If you want to be treated like a piece of cr*p by their intake staff, feel free to give them a…read morecall. Otherwise I suggest looking elsewhere for your care. Good and caring medical treatment is about the whole experience from start to finish, not just the doctors, and that full positive experience is sorely lacking here.

    Great visits here. Our doctor has been awesome. Hopefully, this is our last visit. Today was a…read moresnowy day, and I made it here safely. Will be here for a few hours. Building has a few restaurants, banks, stores, and a pharmacy. This building is located next to the historic Fisher building. If you come in from the Fisher building, the skywalk walkway is on the 2nd floor to go into the Ford Medical Center.

    So... love the doctors here. Desk staff is always friendly! Doctors all provide great quality care…read more Have seen endocrinology, dermatology and ob/gyn as well as have used their radiology floor. Would be 5 stars however this building has increasingly become less handicap friendly. Last visit there's barely any room to walk past the giant partition blocking entrance when you enter the building, a wheelchair would not fit. I don't feel safe with my car in the lot now that there is now that the lot is owned by another company. The security guards are all always huddled at the main desk hanging out together instead of at their posted positions. The new parking lot company is WAY more expensive than previous lot owners. The parking reimbursement would not work at my last visit, everyone passed the buck. I put a help ticket in on the metropolis app just to make sure what the valet employee told me was true about a refund, and the app closed the ticket because I did not do it right away. I had another appointment to get to and was already walking all over with a cane trying to get help. On top of this at my last visit I saw they had removed all the handicap parking spots and I had to park farther away. Being a medical center, these issues need serious addressing.

    I hope this building is not demolished. The photo of it is so wonderful. They don't build like this…read moretoday. It was designed by Albert Kahn who was sometimes called the "architect of Detroit"! I know a family with the last name Kiefer. One of the children is named Byron. When I clicked on the map to see the location I zoomed in and noticed that a street running next to the 'hospital' is named Byron St. I am intrigued. I wonder about this family that is 'up north' and what relationship if any they have to the original founders. I was looking at Michigan locations on asylumprojects.org and the map location brought me to Yelp. Here is a link if allowed http://www.asylumprojects.org/index.php/Herman_Kiefer_Hospital I will add a picture as well from that page. The photo does not say who to credit. The link under the drawing takes me to a page about the "Sanborn" map. "It states Sanborn Maps is an American publisher of historical and current maps of U.S. cities and towns that were initially created to estimate fire insurance liabilities. The company's maps are frequently used for preservation and restoration efforts." Due to the age of the Sanborn map I hope it is free to use and I am crediting the authors correctly.

    Ok, yeah, I said in my review before "as far as I know the structure is in good shape" . . . well …read more . . not so much. As every Detroiter probably now knows, the damn roof caved in because the city hired contractors to repaint areas that had suffered acute water damage but didn't bother to fix the underlyng structural issue first so that more water leaked in and finally brought the roof down into the nice, freshly-painted offices they just renovated. Fail. And a pity, seriously, because this building could be a great, historic, renovated and re-purposed facility if the money and drive to do such could be found. As it is, it will probably linger on housing city/county workers until there's a really dreadful accident or it just becomes unfit for anything but rodents. Then it will probably be abandoned. Then it will fall into the same sad state as so many other large structures in Detroit. :[
