The lady making appointments seemed very confused when making my return visit and they scheduled my next tests too far for me to drive it's over 30 miles from my home so I cancelled and will find something closer very disappointed with scheduling

This was my first visit to this office. Dr Kirk was courteous, professional and had my issue diagnosed within 2 minutes.. I barely got seated in waiting room when they called me back.. Waited maybe 3 min in the little room until Dr Kirk entered.. Was in and out in under 25 minutes.. Which is unheard of these days. Front staff was exceptional as well. Great team

Dumbing stuff down for patients is good sometimes but making them out to be no knowledge at all is offensive. If you have to talk about the same subject so simple like for twenty mins after acknowledging you understand and they are still repeating its kinda annoying like I get it move on thank you

She slandered my character,I informed her that I have been sober for 2years and 2days. She documented that I used meth 2 days prior.Causing me to be unable to receive treatment for pain management from the provider she referred me to.Also Dr. Kirk only spent roughly ten minutes with me.I was not able to answer questions thoroughly,,for I kept being interupted.I will not recommend Dr Kirk to anyone.

Dr. Kirk was Excellent. Elizabeth was professional and helpful. The front desk was not. I recommend having separate lines for checking in and out. It was confusing and had to wait. And front desk staff were not friendly.

This was my first experience with UofL Healthcare in many years. Some of the survey's questions can't be accurate for a first timer using your services. Overall, much improved services compared to years ago.
