I had a natural birth in a tub of water at the hospital and baby and i were happy and healthy. The midwives were great but everything else was a really bad experience. People kept coming in the room trying to give me an epidural when i told them i didn't want it. After the birth they told me i had to stay the night. The morning i was packed and ready to go. They said i had to stay one more night because they wanted to monitor my babys weight. We were nursing on a regular basis and despite this they kept trying to give her formula and make me pump. Her weight was totally normal. I told them i was leaving. They threatened calling security. Said I didn't want to do that. Said i was putting the baby at risk. I told them i was not asking their permission. We are both happy, healthy and going home now. We were there two days and nights against my will for no reason. My baby is nursing and gaining weight and we are going home. Get your paperwork ready. The nurse came back in after crying and told me she was so sorry for the way they were treating us. That she knew the way things are at the hospital are so wrong and she was just so sorry and she got a midwife. I told her what was happening and she got my paperwork and cut off the bands and got us out. Went to my pediatrician next day for routine measurements and she was shocked at their behavior and said the baby's weight was totally normal and she was nursing so well. Never again. Good luck to all you mothers out there. I am almost convinced they were trying to make me stay longer to charge my insurance more.

This hospital and the staff deserve zero stars but I have to give at least one to write a review. This is the by far the worst place I have ever dealt with! I personally chose this hospital for how advanced they are but that means nothing if they don’t do their jobs. They are unprofessional, rushed, absolutely no bedside manners, and spend more time laughing with their coworkers then actually treating you. I have been seen multiple times throughout my first pregnancy for multiple issues and each time I have been completely disregarded. They are fast to pump you with fluids and some medication to shut you up but have no issues seeing you back in 3 days to repeat. Don’t expect a diagnosis!! They will let you sit in pain. This hospital is all about their money $$! They are training lots of new people and it appears nobody knows what is even going on in there, save yourself time, money and pain and go to a different hospital so you can be cared for like an actual human.

10/10 do not reccomend delivering here if you want a natural.birth, even if you go with the midwives. I was lied and manipulated. they were impatient and were continuously looking for problems. I went through 3 different midwife/nurse teams. the two stars is because for the most part the staff were nice but I do not believe they communicated well with eachother at shift changes. again, I just want to leave this review so that if youre debating, I highly recommend not using this hospital. after my experience here I will never willingly deliver in a hospital. they lied about how much blood I was loosing and promised things and didnt follow through multiple times. their monitors for babys heart rate do not work unless someone is constantly holding it to your body. one women said to me "yeah, me doing this with my hands wont really help you deliver any faster" and continued to finger with my vaginia for several hours? so what are you doing then?... do not reccomend. bring a doula if you do.

Deleted my post. Disrespectful and super unprofessional. Didn’t know what rooms were able to hook up baby monitors and machines. Treated my wife like her pain and discomfort wasn’t important and didn’t matter. Constantly moved us room to room, then not move us rooms because reasons. Wife can’t even make it to the bathroom, our unborn child’s heart rate is constantly dropping every other half hour, and she’s crying in pain yet that’s “progress” Worst hospital experience by far. Will not be coming back the rest of this pregnancy or for another pregnancy. Period. Also they deleted my last review so that should say something to their integrity and professionalism.

I visited UoM hospital, Ann Arbor for my wife's delivery in 2nd week of Sept 2016. This is an excellent hospital with excellent staff including doctors, nurses, pantry staff, housekeeping, triage, front desk, etc. This hospital has given me THE BEST experience I could ever have, during my daughter's birth. Everyone is so polite and down to earth and they made us feel special. I was really overwhelmed with so nice gestures. The treatment was excellent and University of Michigan hospital provided the home visit of nurse post discharge just to check if everything is okay. All our queries were very well answered. They continuously monitored health of my wife and baby and were quick in their actions. I really appreciate University of Michigan for THE BEST care they have provided to us. Thanks UoM hospital ! :-)

Dr. Fenner is so awesome she makes you feel like you've known her forever she is a Dr. that actually listens to you when you talk to her very personable excellent bedside. I just love her and would recommend her to all women having female issues. The nurses and the surgical team were very pleasant and helpful I had a very pleasant experience. I am heading back for another surgery and hope to have the same experience 😁

Delivered my first son with great care and amazing nurses. My hubby drove an hour just to deliver my first baby in this hospital. Regardless of the emergency situations I went though in labor, I felt nothing but lucky to have this incredible experience as a first delivery. Great team, high quality service.......... 2 months later after writing the great review, (had to edit my review) Sadly I came to find out that the team actually fractured my baby's collarbone. I spoke too fast. Really really disappointed.

Worst experience I ever had in my life !! Please women DO NOT have your baby here !!!! nobody listens to anything you request and on top of that they push c-sections ; more than natural births don’t believe the hype about them !!!! Also they gossip about every patient in the hallway .

Can't say enough good things about the level of care we received at this hospital. The nursing staff was great coaching me through a long and painful labor. We received constant attention throughout. Loved the birth tub (you do have to ask for a room with a tub; it isn't guaranteed). After our baby was born we were visited by a series of specialists and nursing staff. Super impressed and would highly recommend to any momma-to-be!

I was born qt this hospital of course before the updates and things but things are always changing. I have most of all health care needs as a child with them. When I became and adult I left but quickly came back . I have had two kids here. My daughter did a week in there Nicuand my Son is doing his time now. I am High risk for many different reason and I wouldn't go anywhere else for the care of my children. Love this place. Yes I have had a few not so good help but more good then Bad and that's what I look at because anywhere you go in life there will be good and bad but which one out ways the other.?

I gave birth to my 2nd daughter here. The medical staff and physicians were kind, knowledgeable and understanding. Rooms were clean and properly stocked. The even had a gaming system in our room in labor & delivery. The reason I had to give them 4 stars instead of 5 is because they're either understaffed or just overwhelmed at night. The experience in the daytime versus after hours is much different. Takes the nurses and staff much, much longer to respond to patient requests/needs and I had to ask for simple things like water several times before I received it. The food in general was pretty terrible as well, but it's a hospital so my expectations weren't high. Overall, my experience/overnight stay was great and I would recommend this hospital.

This is a wonderful practice for disabled and challenged individuals!

I truly wish I was able to give this a better rating. I had high hopes when accompanying my mother to what I thought was one of the best hospitals in the state for her surgery. Unfortunately, I was quite disappointed. TLDR: the care itself (surgery) was fine but the communication was horrendous and wait times were ridiculous. We arrived in advance of the check in time and were told we’d be helped quickly. We waited for 1.5 hours without any updates. When the nurse came to take her, I was told I was not allowed to accompany her despite originally being told I could. I was asked to wait for a “short bit of time” without any indication as to how long that would be. After surgery was complete, we received a string of updates with conflicting information. We were told we could see her and we started getting ready to go the hospital and then we were told we couldn’t see her yet. This happened twice. After being told we could come the third time, I packed up and went and didn’t wait for them to change their mind (again). Upon arrival at the hospital, we went where we were told to go. However, no one knew where she was. I had to explain she had likely left post-op and was now in a room and had to ask them to call whoever knows who is in what room to figure out where she was. After about 30 minutes, they were finally able to locate her. Her stay was relatively uneventful, mostly because I came and helped out when she needed it. When planning for discharge, I asked if she could stay an additional day because she was woozy, would have a difficult time with pain on the drive home, and she wasn’t fully with it. The nurse said that probably wouldn’t happen. When I asked why I was essentially told “the hospital wants to make as much money as possible and we’d rather fill the bed with someone we can make more money on.” There wasn’t genuine empathy for her condition. Instead, she was a number and the medical attention she would receive would be based upon finances. This is truly a disgrace. During discharge prep, I specifically asked for her prescription to be sent to our pharmacy at home, which is a 2 hour drive away. They sent it to the hospital we were in. And, they waited until we arrived for discharge to send the prescription in. They had 5 hours to send it in before we got there, but didn’t feel the need to do so. I’m currently standing in the pharmacy waiting for a prescription that was supposed to be filled at a different pharmacy. It’s been over an hour wait. We have a 2 hour drive home with someone who has just been through extensive abdominal surgery. I think displeased is putting it lightly. I don’t share this to be mean. Individuals should be able to make informed healthcare decisions. Personally, I would never use this hospital again and what I saw made me afraid to even consider having a child here. Reading reviews, it is apparent others feel the same way. I’d suggest going elsewhere for your medical care.
