Donald Carney, MD - Athens (TX)

Janae Calvez My husband and I had our daughter there this past weekend. When we were first taken in, we were lead back to an intake room where Melissa and Mary helped us. Miss Mary made all of our anxiety go away and was able to help me get an epidural as quickly as possible. Our anesthesiologist, Brodie, was amazing. He was able to help minimize my labor pains to make it a somewhat enjoyable experience. Mary checked on us constantly and made both my husband and I so comfortable. The next morning, our AM nurse Kaylee came in and introduced us to Dr. Romeo. Kaylee constantly took my pain concerns seriously and made sure that I was well looked after. When it came time to deliver our daughter, I was so thankful to have her and Brandi in the room. They made sure that myself and my daughter were safe through labor. And both of them made me feel as though I could make it through anything. I had minimal pain after delivery and was transferred to a postpartum room after only 2 hours. My little family and I stayed overnight and were well taken care of again, by Miss Mary and my daughter was checked on constantly by Miss Wendi. They did great checking on us while also letting us sleep. They constantly made sure both my husband and I had water and were comfortable. The next day, we met Courtney (our final AM nurse). She was so helpful and made sure I had all my pain meds. My daughter met her pediatrician, Dr. Chambers, who was so lovely and just radiated kindness. The housekeeping staff as well as all of the people that worked for the dietary department made sure our room was always cleaned and we were fed. Dietary even brought us a gift basket full of snacks. We were set to be released once Miss Melissa made sure our daughter passed all of her testing. I cannot recommend UT Health enough. I was lucky to have all my prenatal care with Dr. Davis and my nurse Amanda. The ultrasound techs, Mindy & Josey were always so kind. Miss Regina at accounting services is always so helpful and just a genuinely good person. Kaylee, Brandi, and Mary are the epitome of great people making an impact in the community. We’ll be continuing care for our daughter with Dr. Chambers.

Frank Boyce One of the best oncologist around! Treated my colon cancer, and Im nearly 4 years cancer free! Super nice guy as well

Kat Kramer So the doctor is awesome. Listens, got the ball rolling on some much needed medical treatment; but the office is Extremely difficult to get a hold of. Im bleeding 3 weeks out of the month on this new birth-control and cant get anyone to answer the phone so i can make an appoint to ask the doctor if i should keep taking it or not. Is this normal ? I dont know. But calling and leaving voicemails isnt getting me anywhere. Even talking to the on call nurse answered none of my questions. Day four of me trying to call and nothing. Can i get an appointment to follow up please???

B G Terrell What can I say about Vanessa, Dr Hester’s PA. Well she is just the best. So sweet and friendly. She very thorough with my x-ray results. She took the time to explain everything clearly to ne and answerd all my questions. If she is a reflection of Dr Hester then I can’t wait to meet him next month. Thank you Vanessa for treating me so well.

Santrice Watson If you’re looking for care and compassion!! This is the place! The staff is friendly and helpful as well as understanding and it’s a nice clean environment, peaceful for our loved ones! So many activities and things to participate in! And therapy is the BEST! Not to mention the home cooked meals served to the much deserving clients! Thanks for caring for our loved ones!

Donna Clayton I was very pleased with the care I received at this Athens Facility. I was hesitant going in as I had heard bad reviews. The staff, doctor, nurses and everyone was knowledgeable kind and helpful. I would totally recommend anyone to seek treatment here I was happy to receive such a good quality of care.

Wayne Echelmeyer Staff seems efficient and well organized.

Katie Renberg The doctor literally prescribed me a steroid for my face that caused a whole new condition, when I told her what I thought I had, she brushed it off. I went to a specialist, and had what I told her I thought I had. You know what it’s caused by? Steroid use on the face. Also every single time I went I waited at least a full hour to be seen in the doctor’s room. Needless to say, I switched doctors.

John Washburne Horrible care! Almost killed my wife. Thank god I took her to Kaufman where she ended up inpatient for a week. She had shortness of breath, and they made her walk to the x-ray. The director of nursing, Walter is a liar and unprofessional. I reached out to the main campus and complained and they apologized for making her walk for the x-ray and they said they would re-educate that department otherwise they did absolutely nothing.

Martha McSweeney I found the staff to be personable and professional. My questions and calls were answered promptly. The hospital staff was also friendly and professional. Colonoscopies are never a fun procedure to prep for but the information provided made it almost bearable. Dr Takata was was professional and informative in both the findings and what I might experience next.
