Mercy Iowa City

This hospital is very underrated. It's often compared to a larger hospital here in Iowa City that's supposedly the best around. Nothing could be further from the truth. If you want to be patted on the head and told "you ARE 80 years and it's probably something you're going to have to live with, " go the hospital on the west side of town. Mercy's doctors and nurses, for the most part, are a lot more caring and will try to solve the issues you are being seen for. AND you don't have to have your surgery done by a student.

Went to heart therapy for 2 months and they are great with out them I would not be where I am today. This Hospital is great !! Also the food is very good.

This is one the best hospitals i have ever been in. I was in and out in under 4 hrs in the ER. The RN Joellen and the Student Nurse Taylor Dodd were AMAZING!! They were super easy to talk to in explaining what was going on and they made sure I had everything I needed to feel comfortable. And the DR I had, Naomi Whalen was just as amazing! She didnt blow me off, she took me seriously and actually cared about finding the cause of my problems. Great ER. And Great staff.

Switched from uiowa to mercy for my wife, me, and my 3 kids. Totally worth it. Great care, practical patient centered solutions, and VERY compassionate staff.

I cannot express my appreciation adequately for the extremely friendly and kind help I received this weekend when I went to the ER--from the receptionist to the intake person, to the physician, and the nurse who followed-up....light-hearted humor, good and interested listening, and excellent and prompt resolution of my problem...and no waiting! (Which of course was just a Cosmic accident)....and when I returned, having forgotten my billfold, the staff were already trying call me to alert me to my error, and immediately produced the lost article for me. I am beyond impressed!
