Every thirty feet or so throughout the entire hospital, there is a unique piece of artwork hanging on the wall commissioned by artists throughout the State of Louisiana. Reverend Avery Alexander University Medical Center is a gorgeous new construct affiliated with LSU Health Sciences New Orleans. The medical center is the most advanced in every way, leading the way of healthcare in New Orleans. The hospital was established with some controversy, for more information you should seek out the documentary«The Big Charity.» Nonetheless, this hospital will serve the New Orleans population well.

4 stars. Could have been five, but bad attitude with the reception area entering the ER. Other than that the hospital is gorgeous. My first time here so I am wondering are the doctors any good. The Interim Louisiana Hospital has moved here. I was kind of sad because I got used to the raged dy hospital with bad attitude workers and long wait time. I was expecting that from that place, but now you have this amazing built Hospital and they just transferred all the attitudes workers here along withe the waiting time. Lol. Hopefully the doctors are nice and can diagnosed me. ***************************************** Okay I had arrived here at 10 pm. You have to get a parking pass when entering into the garage but I later found out I can have it signed and you won’t have to pay as long as it is validated. This place is nice and big. I totally was getting lost but that’s ok too because there were signs and so I eventually just followed the signs. There’s the hospital side and then there’s the ER. I had to go to the Er. I thought I had strep throat and so I wanted to make sure I was safe considering the fact in have a One year old. Ok upon entering the facility, there’s the reception area and the employees were Not really as attentive to customers. I guess they figured we should put two and two together and use the Kiosk to enter our information. So I was standing in line, one lady was on the phone and the other lady was directing us to use the kiosk. By the way, you will receive a number/alphabet and it will show on the screen as well as what room to go to. Now here’s where the bamboozled happen. I go into a room tell the nurse what’s wrong she gave me my bracelet with all my information and a set of stickers with my information. Ok surprise you guys!!! Stage 2 waiting room. It’s 1045 am and it’s two other people waiting. That’s it. I literally took a nap for an hour and some change until they called my name. Then also they had no kleenex to blow my nose i had to use tissue. Im like you mean to tell ke this beautiful place do not have any tissues? There was a television and nice cozy waiting room. It just took forever to be seen by a doctor. So at around 12:20 they called woke me up from my sleep. I’m so tired everything they did aggrevated me but I managed to still be cordial. These nurses and doctors were nicer. The staff seem to know what they were doing. I liked how one of the nurses actually engaged in conversations with me and it made me feel more comfortable. Once I was diagnosed and everything I waited again for about an hour just to get discharged. I left the garage at 3:15. Let me drop this bomb on yall. There were hardly no one in there and they took their precious time. But I can’t get angry because it is the ER after all and that’s just the way of the World I guess! ******************************************* Let me tell yah like this… If you are going to come to the ER clear your schedule have yourself a meal and bring you some water because Aiant no telling how the cookie may crumble. This place is beautiful and we’ll decorated. I think the staff at the reception counter when you enter the ER could have been more friendlier and also the waiting time was just crazy. I now know. OTHER than that This place is amazing and the doctors seemed to know what they were doing. Very clean by the way!

This place is state of the art. It really is. I went on a tour before it opened, and I was in awe of the technology, art, and functionality throughout this entire complex. The conference room looked like a grand ballroom you would see in a luxurious hotel overseas. I had the pleasure of meeting several department heads, and they all stressed that they would only be hiring the most qualified employees that exemplify the most caring and moral qualities. I was definitely impressed. I’m sure it has been mentioned in other reviews, but UMC is our Level 1 trauma center meaning they are the BEST. They earn that title everyday through all their hard work.

The new hospital is beautiful(and huge). Nurses and doctors are caring and helpful. Clean private rooms(no hall beds, and for those of you who remember the old University Hospital, those curtained stretchers are gone too — finally not everyone in the pod can hear your business). Fast triage.

I will give you five stars when you remove the NOPD officer with the bad attitude from the front desk. seriously. this is a glitter dome, and somewhat of a ghost town for now. no one on the weekends at any of the desks to help you, so make sure you know where you are going before you arrive. yesterdays visit was great. I found my friend, the info desk people in the main lobby were really helpful and assigned someone to take me to where I needed to go. once there, to check on my friend who was having a triple bypass operation, the next counter was a bit of a wait. I was greeted by miss audrey, who was above and beyond gracious. she took my info, and gave me the info on my friend. I knew it was going to be an all day affair, so I didn’t stay, rather she took MY number and kept me updated throughout the day. very informative and reassuring. she is a blessing. patients advocate. great. I then left and went home to wait. today I went to visit my friend and its a ghost town. the information desk has a police officer sitting there flirting with young blonde ambitious hospital workers. he didn’t even blink an eye or acknowledge me until he felt he had flirted enough with these two ladies. he didn’t smile, he didn’t care. he cut me off halfway into my question and told me to call someone who MIGHT help me. I knew where my friend was so I got my info and proceeded to go visit with her. I will never understand why people with absolutely no personality or empathy are allowed to interact with the public. I was not the only one he was rude to. next visit I will put some balloons in my shirt and a blonde wig on, and see if he notices me. seriously. big mistake putting this guy in charge. once upstairs I found my friend, but again no one around, so I ignored the sign in at front desk sign, cause there is no one at the desk. once inside I found my friend, and her doctors and nurses were above and beyond helpful. what a great place. I can’t wait to see you up and running for reals. please make anyone who works your information desk take a test to see if they are compatible to work with the public. when you apply for work at a hotel, you have to take a test. same should apply here at the hospital. adding to peoples misery just because you can and your wearing a badge? makes you a jerk. it leaves a bad taste in a person’s mouth. I can only imagine what my mother would’ve said to that loser at the desk. please remove him. there are many people in this city looking for work who have better demeanors than this guys taste in bedside manners /blonde’s only. and congrats for finally getting your doors open, even if your not totally staffed.
