Seeking Opinion on Delivery at University Community Hospital

I delivered both of my children at UCH. Had a wonderful experience with both! Was taken very good care of in both the delivery room & hospital room. The nurses were extraordinary & I had total confidence in them. I highly recommend the Women's Center at UCH for delivery. :)

I have to agree with everything stated in the other responses. UCH was wonderful to me for both my children. Couldn't have asked for more efficient and kind care. I have yet to hear of a less than wonderful experience with The Women's Center at UCH.

i had all three of my boys at UCH, i initially preferred that hospital because my friend is a labor/delivery nurse there. UCH is a wonderful hospital and the staff is wonderful. I would never hesitate recommending UCH Womens to anyone! Good Luck!

I had a great experience and would deliver there again. Theu nurses and staff were wonderful. Contrary to what I think of the main hospital, UCH Women's Center was beyond my expectations!

I had my first child at St Joes and my second child - 2 yrs later - at UCH - I had a good experience with both - but would prefer UCH if I ever have any more children. I think the food was better at UCH too. Staff was nicer - I had a repeat C Section at UCH.

I also delivered both of my children at UCH. I had a wonderful experience. Both of my boys were delivered by c-section and the nurses were excellent. They check on you all the time and are there when you need them. Good Luck with everything.

I had a repeat section at UCH 4 years ago this month - I couldn't have been more full of a praise for a hospital and its staff. I had my other child in a different hospital/state - and after that experience, I was pleasantly surprised at how positive a scheduled c-section birth could be from the moment we got there to the moment we left. The nurses made all the difference to me. They were fantastic. It was busy there when I delivered and there was no room for me on the Mother/Baby floor - so I stayed on the GYN floor - not that it matters. They treated both my daughter and me as good as gold.

My mom is a LDR nurse (over 30 years) from up north and SHE was even impressed with the care I received on the GYN floor.

I don't plan on more babies ... but I would highly recommend this facility to anyone. Good luck to you.

I delivered my daughter at UCH March 2005 and will have my 2nd one there in 6-8 weeks. The hospital is wonderful – the delivery and recovery rooms are huge, bright and comfortable, and the nursing staff is phenomenal, and so accommodating and attentive. Not sure if St Joes does this, but when they were moving my daughter and me to the recovery room, as we exited the delivery room and wheeled to the elevator, a lullaby was played in the hallways to “celebrate” a new birth. It was really very touching. I have nothing but praise and positive feedback for UCH Women’s Center, and I'm sure you would too.

Well add me to the list of being very happy with UCH. I delivered in March 2000 and couldn't have been any happier.

Please choose UCH. All my girlfriends that delivered there loved it! Those of my girlfriends that delivered at St Josephs hated it! I delivered there 2x only b/c I loved my doc and wanted her to deliver both my children but I hated St. Josephs both times. My room was dirty both times, the staff was not overly caring, the nurses did not follow thru with anything, the food is dog food, and it's overcrowded.

I have delivered at both ST Joes and UCH. I LOVE UCH!!!! When I went in I had 4 yes 4 people in my room taking care of me when I was in labor, never with less then 2 people in the room. It was wonderful. The rooms upstairs were large and had a pull out bed for my hubby, ST, Joes only had a couch that the cushins came off of and he said was not very comfy. The food was to die for wonderful and they took care of our every need. My hubby got 2 meals- at ST. Joes he got 1 which he missed because they did not give us our card for it. We forgot to turn in his meal card at UCH and they came back and gave him his meal anyways. They were great with my lil one and he never left my side. They watch them and take care of them all in your room, I loved it because it gives other people ( mom sis fam etc...) to be around the baby for those first moments too... not just looking though a glass wall at the first bath. My sis had her baby there 6 months later and when I went to visit her, one of the nurses that had my room remembered me and my hubby and came to say hi! If that does not make you feel good and well taken care of... what does??
