TriStar Skyline Medical Center

Skyline was all over the place in terms of how I would rate it.
Emergency Room –3– They get 5 stars for efficiency. But 1 star for the Nurse Practitioner telling there was an issue with my heart which was way off from what it was.
Nurses — 5 — Every single nurse including the head nurse was awesome. Can’t say enough about the care and concern each and every one possessed.
Doctors — 3 — Fortunately I’m giving 5 stars to the one who actually performed my procedure, but the guy who made the rounds had absolutely no idea what he was talking about and the guy who made the initial diagnosis went a little overboard with his self righteousness.
Hospital — 5– Cleanest hospital I’ve ever been in. Didn’t have that «hospital» smell.

Ok… so I will only give a 4 star but not because the staff was bad but because I don’t like Hospitals. If I did like them it would totally be a 5 start… I unfortunately got the not so fun rush to the hospital while on a work trip to Nashville and these guys were great from the ambulance right down to discharge. Doctor was a little rough on bedside but no real complaint he did his job and did it well the nurses however were amazing. I can’t thank you all enough for treating me so well and having that personal touch. If you gotta do a hospital in Nashville this one gets my vote.

Very friendly staff! And the patient rooms are nice and warm! They treated my friend and I very well.

Great hospital. The ER needs more admitting/​discharge employees. Always a long wait to admit a patient here.

So I had to make a trip to the ER night before last, for terrible sharp back pain. I had to come in an ambulance. It was around 5am. When the paramedics and I got there, all of the nurses were standing around the nurses station staring at me like I was interrupting something really important, when there was no patients around to be seen.
They got me in a room quickly. Four of the nurses came in took my temp etc etc. Then they made me go take a test in the restroom. I came in for back pain, not being able to sit up or stand straight, and not a single one helped me into the restroom. I got out of the restroom and I almost fell down from my back pain and I had to scream for someone to help me.
The doctor came in, she was great. Took care of what I needed.
The nurse came in had to give me shots. She dropped one of the vials of medicine and the needle cover, left them there until the next shift came in. They took my blood pressure cuff off and just threw it on the floor, while it continued to inflate.
Dr. Barrette was great, but the nurses really needed some help. Dear god, I hope I never have to come to this er ever again.

By far the most caring hospital I have ever been in. My family member was admitted to the Neuro ICU and I cannot say enough good things about the staff. Michelle was her nurse on that floor and was one of the most compassionate nurses I have ever met. She made sure to introduce herself to the whole family and make sure we all felt included and informed of everything that was happening. Losing a loved one is never easy but to have someone as caring as her taking care of my family certainly made a sad situation easier to manage. She and the trauma surgeon (I unfortunately forgot his name) made sure to not sugar coat the situation at hand but present every option to us and let us make an informed decision. I cannot say enough good things about this hospital (Neuro ICU in particular). It is worth noting that every staff member we came in contact with in the hallways from a phlebotomist to a janitor greeted us. My job takes me in and out of hospitals on a daily basis and TriStar Skyline is undeniable the best one I’ve encountered.

I’ve never really liked Skyline, and sometimes I think the people working there don’t like it either.
I went a few weeks ago due to a sprain. I was there for almost three hours! The only reason I got checked-​in was because a nurse passed by and asked had I been helped yet. 45min later a person from registration came into the room. An hour later I got an X-​ray, and an hour after that a doctor came to tell me what I already knew by that point – sprained ankle. He basically told me to walk it off, and tried to get me to take some pain medication that I refused. He became irritated with this, shoved a prescription list in my hand, and refused to take it back when I stated that I don’t care for most pain killers.
I then asked could I get an ace bandage to stablize my ankle. Again, irritation. A nurse wrapped my foot and got irritated when she realized she had to wheel me to my friend’s car because when I was dropped off my shoes weren’t given to me.
Every time I’ve gone to Skyline, I’ve gotten weak service. I get long waits during emergencies, but I’ve gone to several Nashville hospitals and have never stayed that long during down times.

This is my favorite hospital in the Nashville area. Modern appearance with nice caring staff. Clean and efficient. Their ER is pretty slow once you are in a room but usually taken back and vitals checked and etc quickly. Their check in area for outpatient MRIs and etc can be on the slow side. Parking in ER and doctors building area can be a pain but the parking for hospital only usually decent. My family and I have spent a lot of time there as either patients or visiting some one in about every section and wing and most every time has been positive experience

Like most people I HATE HOSPITALS!!! but its always a good thing to get annual check up. Not gonna complain about how rough the Dr was and how i felt as if i needed a strong shot & cigarette after my physical! cause I’m no punk,…but damn does the Hippocratic oath have any chapters on gentleness in some areas… lol
The receptionist where very friendly as always and seem to know how to handle patients who can’t seem to read the signs posted everywhere that states to take personal phone calls out in hallway,.of course someone always gotta push the envelope! All in all this place is nice, friendly and fast which means a lot to me cause nobody wants to spend there off day at the hospital especially with THURSDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL!!!

Faculty is clean. The staff and volunteers I passed or exchanged greetings with were nice, friendly and helpful.

I haven’t been to a hospital in ages, but I was very impressed with the technology, design, and service at Skyline! It was comfortable, welcoming, and most importantly — clean!

As far as facilities go, Skyline Medical Center is one of the nicest hospitals in the HCA/​Tri-​Star family. The views are amazing from the campus. I’ve, unfortunately, had several trips to the ER with friends and family and each time we’ve been handled quickly, efficiently and politely.
My podiatrist is here, also, and he is amazing. The professional building is in tip-​top shape and there’s not a bad parking spot here. Definitely my hospital of choice in the Nashville area.

clean nice hospital, but I asked for pain meds and the doctor refused to give them to me. Iam in so much pain from a fall I had yesterday that it hurts to breath. I asked for a pillow three times and still have no received one, and asked for fruit or something with vitamins in it and they gave me peanut butter with graham crackers.

Fortunately I was «Just Visiting» but it appears to be a nice hospital. The staff I interacted with was friendly and helpful, and it appears to lack some of the high security measures of other hospitals in Nashville. Hopefully you won’t end up here, but if you do, you would appear to be in good hands.
