Moab Regional Hospital

While traveling thru southern Utah, we stopped and myself and 2 grandsons walked up Wilson's arch. I slipped on the way down and broke my ankle. I didn't need a Dr to tell me that. Nearest hospital was Moab Regional. What a blessing! We got there about 12:00 pm went into surgery at 3:00. Could not have asked for better workers. While waiting for surgery the staff was having ice cream sundaes. They went to the lobby and got 2 very scared, frightened, crying little boys and invited them to the ice cream party. Being from south Alabama it's great to see that there are still good people out there for when you need them.

Nurses and staff are extremely helpful and personable. I'm not sure how much they get paid, but they deserve a raise. The hospital itself is composed of a great team that gets things done efficiently and effectively. Doctor Quinn does well at the surgery part of his job. I've had my ACL reconstructed multiple times, and this is the first time I feel as though it was done properly. However, he severely lacks bedside manner and cultural competency. I appreciate a doctor who is right to the point and gets the job done, but it is also vital to be aware of who your patients are and where they are coming from. His demeanor felt degrading and cold at times. I think it would be beneficial for him to take classes and brush up on his people skills. However, this being said I would like to restate that my knee feels better than it ever has.

Very professional and caring staff and doctors. Dr. Steven Rouzer's explanations were informative and clear. Wish we had his practice in our hometown.

Bottom tier hospital with bottom tier medical staff. Unprofessional, rude and inconsiderate medical professionals. STAY AWAY

Your care at this hospital depends on the professional you see. Georgia in the ER (I believe she's an LPN) has always been cold and indifferent. Doesn't listen and doesn't care. I have kyphosis of the spine and have chronic pain. When I do get a sprain or any type of injury I try to see ANY provider besides the ER. Georgia has rolled her eyes while I've talked to her before. Don't go without a witness. I had bleeding ulcers also before, and my blood count would be quite low. I was told by my physician to watch it and if I felt faint or had bloody stools to come in to the ER. One time I came in with bloody black tarry stools (meaning my stomach was bleeding). The nurse who was working handed me a glove and told me to do my own gouiac (sp?) exam, since I'd had so many I should know how to do it. They stood outside my room and talked about how it's all mental and I'm 'obsessed' with my blood counts. Well yeah. I didn't want to die. Finally had the problem corrected at St Mary's in Grand Junction, which is a hospital I highly recommend.
