The staff of the hospital were very helpful and kind. Thank you Dina for explaining to me how to navigate myself back to the visiting area.
I was quite surprised that the wonderful and beautiful ladies offered all the visitors snacks (bottle water or bag of chips) while we waited for our loved ones. They have a screen on the wall that tells you the status of patient.
The Ascension Saint Alexius Chapel was very beautiful that included detailed sculptures, mosaic window art work, a peaceful area.
Thank you to the nurses, doctors, all the hard working staff and family of the Ascension Saint Alexius hospital you are all very appreciated!

I cannot speak for the rest of the hospital but my experience at maternal and children's hospital was phenomenal. The doctors were amazing but there is no comparison for the nurses. The nurses in L&D, mother baby unit, and especially the nicu were some of the best I have ever encountered. I am so grateful to them for making my difficult time so much easier. All the staff did as much as possible to make me feel as comfortable as possible. Very grateful.

RN Brittany and Wendy are absolutely amazing nurses in the Mother Baby unit. From the moment they walked into our room, they brought a sense of calm, comfort, and genuine care that made such a difference during a vulnerable time. Both of them took their time explaining everything, answering every question with patience, and making sure we felt confident as new parents.
Brittany was incredibly attentive and compassionate--she anticipated our needs before we even expressed them and always made sure both mom and baby were comfortable. Wendy was just as exceptional, offering guidance, reassurance, and emotional support when we needed it most. Their bedside manner, professionalism, and kindness went far beyond expectations.
We are truly grateful for the care they provided. Nurses like Brittany and Wendy are what make the Mother Baby unit feel safe, supportive, and unforgettable. They are absolute gems, and we can't thank them enough for everything they did for our family.

Very positive experience with one caveat. While in the ER one of the admission people came by and said I needed to pay 20% of my bill immediately because "that was my insurance". It seemed shady at best since that has NEVER been a part of my insurance. Would have been a 5-star experience without that crap.

Front Desk Reception - Building 1 (H), Ascension St. Alexius Hospital
This was my first visit to the hospital, and wanting to be respectful, I approached the front desk to ask for directions rather than wandering in on my own. Unfortunately, the receptionist was noticeably rude. She didn't acknowledge my polite greeting or respond when I thanked her, and even rolled her eyes. I was courteous throughout, simply seeking guidance. First impressions matter, especially in a healthcare setting, and this interaction left a disappointing one.
