Steele Memorial Medical Center

I’m writing this review under the direction of a good buddy that I’m helping to rehab, “Big” Mike Gassmann from Hamilton, Montana. His Doctor recommended Steel Memorial because of the cleanliness, the equipment and the facility itself. After much research we decided to drive the 110 miles each way to have this procedure done there and we’re glad we did. Mike had a TOTAL knee replacement. Pretty tough surgery!
Upon arrival/check in, everyone was very welcoming, knowledgeable, polite, considerate, informative and most importantly professional.
My Doctor, Dr. Behm and his anathesiologist set me at ease before the surgery and everyone, I mean everyone introduced themselves. I couldn’t believe the amount of people on the team, all of which were very nice and caring. This set my mind at ease.
Next thing I knew I was in recovery. I guess I was trying to wheel and deal the nurses to give me a drink of water. $20? $35? What’s it going to take?
They never budged, only for me to find out later how important it was for them to stick to their rules. I was there 3 days. I’ve got to be honest, I hate hospitals but these folks were super. My requests were answered and met almost immediately. My stay was pleasant and almost enjoyable. Seriously, I felt like I was in a high end hotel. The nursing staff was amazing.
I want to Thank my Doctor, the anathesiologist, the hospital and all the staff for taking care of this guy who USED to dislike hospitals. It’s a good feeling to know that there is a place like Steel Memorial, top of the line.
Thank You All!

They focus more on money than actual care. They don't take the time to sit hear and solve the issue.

They take forever for anything and they never actually figure out what's wrong they just assume most the time. Wish they would have some doctors that actually cared in there. There's a very small amount that care.

Really enjoyed my last exam.

This place is horable. They don't know what they are doing.
