Mary Greeley Medical Center Reviews ( 85 )

  1. (Translated by Google) Well, we only came to uninstall a CT scanner in this great hospital and, as in all of the hospitals where we have gone to work, the care in terms of work is good. …

  2. Deeply disappointed by the “care” in emergency. They took so long, I decided my issue must not be that serious, so I checked myself out and I will go to much cheaper urgent care in the morning.

  3. There needs to be someone who knows what they are doing for mental health issues. Reporting false information because they don’t have a clue shouldn’t be an option, it should be illegal!

  4. Had a very positive experience with Mary Greeley. They helped me with an animal bite quickly and efficiently. Dr. Mattson and the staff really know what they’re doing. Thanks again

  5. They are terrible my girlfriend is pregnant and they will do nothing for her she’s been in pain and early labor and my buddys lady went through the same thing and they induced her terrible place never go her to deliver a baby

  6. I was born there in the 1960’s -so of course 5 stars with my birth story.
    “Mom said the c-sec, done vertical then, was cut half the size of later delivery c-sec in another state of her 2nd delivery (yet small baby) She felt safe and …

  7. If you hate your relatives and want them to die, this is an excellent place to take them. This is the worst medical facility I have ever seen, and I once had to retrieve a family member from a hospital with feces on the walls. I would get …

  8. We recently had our first child at MGMC. It truly is the best place to have a baby. The unit is geared toward a baby friendly environment through rooming in and providing so many resources to help with breastfeeding. We have only the …

  9. Twice now Mary Greeley Hospital in Ames, Iowa has written my complaints off as in my head. Twice I have told them exactly what has been wrong with me. Twice I have been right. TWICE they have PUT MY LIFE IN JEOPARDY. …

  10. The staff are very attentive and helpful but if you’re uninsured it’ll be better to go elsewhere as this place will price gouge you for everything. I got a bill 26 days after getting out with monthly payments at more then I make in a month.

  11. This is a terrible medical center. They only ask question and don’t provide any help what so ever. They would rather put you on medical hold rather than listen to what you have to say. They don’t keep you informed about what they are doing. …

  12. If you live in Ames and dont want to OR cant drive to Des Moines, there is no choice in the matter-this IS your hospital. All of my impressions of the hospital are based on this fact. It is also incredibly difficult to understand where Mary …

  13. I went to Mary Greeley to give birth, because my family was nervous about non-hospital births. I came with a birth plan to try and get some things out of the way — no formula for my baby, no circumcision if it’s a boy, no pushing to get an …

  14. I can say from experience wit both being a patient at Mary Greeley and our son being there that the hospital leaves much to be desired. I was misdiagnosed in the er with a heart attack and the meds they gave me made me worse. Our son came …

  15. I had back surgery at Mary Greely Oct. 15th 2012.I had not 1 problem or complaint. From checking in to checking out,the nurses everyone did their job and did it well and with a smile.A+ to them and also Dr Kasper for the surgery. He takes …

  16. My husband was hospitalized for possible heartache. The care he recieved in the ER to inpatient unit was nothing but excellent, delivered by a professional team. As a health care provider myself, we could not have asked for better care. As out of town guest, we couldn’t have been treated any better.

  17. Needed a visit to the ER on Christmas Eve. Met a couple great nurses who were dressed for the holidays 🙂 and an awesome doctor… Dr. Waite. Went in feeling like death, and left with my next day Christmas plans back on track. …

  18. The doctors and nurse were great…but…if you go in for any issues with the baby before birth and they are gonna admit you later in the day DO NOT LEAVE they are only doing that so they can double bill you for services that day.

  19. I have always had excellent care at Mary Greeley… including with the birth of my daughter in 1997 and various surgeries from 1991-present (2017). The majority of the staff members I encountered were very committed, caring and knowledgeable; also took the time to explain details that put my mind at ease.

  20. Nice staff and building. I did endoscopy with Dr. Fields in gastroenterology and my experience was very good. I was a little shocked by prices but fortunately insurance covered most of them. Definitely recommend this clinic (anyway, no other options…)

  21. As a hospital we’ve always had great service, but trying to pay our bill is one of the most frustrating experiences I’ve ever encountered. My husband went to ER during COVID and they refused to take his copay at time of service due to …

  22. I went there recently and it was amazing, I was in the pediatric floor (I’m 15) I had the most amazing nurse named Jessica the sweetest person I’d ever met! She made my stay a million times easier on me because I was so stressed. Thanks again Nurse Jess love you!

  23. Mary Greeley is the best hospital that I know. I was born at Mary Greeley, and my mom told me that they took the best care of me. I had to stay in the hospital 5 days after birth. I think that Mary Greeley takes great care of their …

  24. Extremely disappointed in Mary Greeley. My daughter had surgery and the surgeon was excellent. Unfortunately, her aftercare was abysmal. We did have one overnight nurse who was exceptional. Post op day 1 she was checked on twice in a 9 hr …

  25. During my pregnancy I had a preterm labor scare and was admitted to birthways (maternity ward). The nurses who took care of me during my stay were very kind. During my labor and delivery last month all the nurses and my midwife were very …

  26. I was admitted into their emergency room in the summer, and the bill was hefty due to having expired insurance. The financial office was very informative and very willing to work out the payment with me. They have a financial aid application, as well as a payment plan, and I am overall very thankful for help and understanding.

  27. The medical staff told me they should just allow me to die. I am disabled and have outlived my usefulness to society. I had to make a scene just to get life sustaining drugs. Granted I was in allergic shock and not easy to deal with. Their …

  28. May 29th I ended up having to have emergency surgery. Thanks to the ER department for doing everything they could to control my pain while they ran tests to find the problem. Soon after CTScans found the problem I was headed into Surgery …

  29. Absolutely excellent! From the facility, to the volunteers, nurses, surgeon, and even the kitchen staff, everything was above and beyond my expectations. I came in on 7/28/17 for scheduled back surgery and was treated like family from the …

  30. They sent my dad home with a fractured skull and bleeding on his brain, and told him to just take tylenol. When they were having him do physical therapy the nurse forgot the lap band to keep him safe, even though he is a fall risk. Though …

  31. We had our first baby at Mary Greeley Birthways and we were so happy with our experience! I saw Dr. Zoulek throughout my pregnancy and she was able to deliver him. Dr. Z was wonderful in educating us, answering our questions without …

  32. I was asked to remove my review but I don’t feel like I should remove it but I will update and explain more as to my reason to feel the way I do. I did remove the nurse who was the one who set me over the edge with the way she attacked me. …

  33. I was there 2 weeks ago, the nurses I had, were fabulous, they helped me with my pregnancy and they took good care of my son and I. I couldn’t be any happier. I would definitely recommend this hospital to anyone.

  34. I had a colonoscopy with Dr. Fields and staff. A great experience. Everything was well planned, prepared, and carried out. All did their jobs perfectly 🥰. Jim Prouty, Ames …

  35. Over the last few years I have been to many hospital for various reasons and family members. This hospital hands down has been one of the best. A really nice campus great staff and the cafeteria food is fantastic. Glad my wife decided to have surgery here instead of in des moines

  36. Visited last week for a procedure, had to park on level 2 of parking ramp. Went to go use elevator and said it was broken. Next thing we saw was a Skywalk, went to use that but said staff only – badge needed. Then had to go find a …

  37. Great hospital but disappointing billing practices. Processed then refunded our payments every few months over the last couple of years, and then sent three small (under $200 total) bills to collections. I’ve paid repeatedly, but they …

  38. Went in today at 12pm there was a 20
    Min wait no one was in the waiting room and they got busy and they kept pushing me back letting other people go ahead of me. I ended up leaving after waiting 2 hrs of no communication. I kept asking them and the guy response they get to u. Never going back

  39. I was here 2 weeks ago to have my little man everything was good and some of the staff were super helpful and nice with the labor and delivery. We are now back 2 weeks later due to the fact that he wasn’t making weight since birth, and …

  40. The nurses were heartfelt.However they knew nothing about hard to place bandage care or that there is cloth tape for people that can’t use regular tape.. (Doctor) I give no stars!! I won’t go into detail but I would not bring my pet there..

  41. A family member was hospitalized here and then was in the acute rehabilitation center for several weeks. The care was exceptional and the staff members were amazing! Everyone was friendly, kind, and supportive. A wonderful hospital!

  42. I was taken care of very well when I had appendix surgery around 5 years ago. This is a super delayed review but better than never. I noticed/remembered their great care due to some bad experience that I recently go through in west coast. We often forget to leave good reviews ;/.

  43. I am updating my review as I know more now. When I was in Mary Greeley hospital my health problems were not taken care of the right way . As usual , I have to go to Mayo clinics in Rochester to get to the real problems and get treated. …

  44. Very disappointed in the lack of caring. People in the hospital are alone, in pain, scared. The least that could be done is acting like you care. I realize you’d rather be flirting with other staff and on your phones, but you chose a caring …

  45. I don’t even know where to start. I was on the 6th floor and the nursing staff there is excellent! I was pretty concerned about my condition and the care here was fantastic putting my mind at ease! I can’t say I had a favorite because each …

  46. The worst hospital i’ve been to, went in at 5 am for stomach pain leaving at 8:30 am, during that time I was never voluntarily checked on. I had to call the nurses station and when they answered they apparently couldn’t hear me speaking and …

  47. I was an employee for this place and I have nothing good to say about this place. I worked in two different departments and they both had the same problems. First department, I was a dietary aid – wasn’t a bad job but I can’t say the same …

  48. I’ve been here twice to the ER. The care was excellent and fast. I had to have surgery which went well. My husband was also here for back surgery and we were very happy with his care and results also. The doctors and nurses were wonderful and the food was pretty good for hospital food.
