The Kirklin Clinic of UAB Hospital

I mean, who wants to have brain cancer and then make a two plus hour trip one way to another state, but you gotta do what you gotta do. Compared to the other clinical settings I've been in, the Kirklin Clinic is top-notch. COVID has unfortunately done away with the valet parking, but Google lists the parking deck as a separate entity. Routinely spaced throughout all of the facilities are attendants to assist patients and visitors in finding the doctor they are looking for or just to locate a restroom. Sneaky Pete's Restaurant is conveniently located for a quick, tasty bite on the ground floor of the parking deck. My favorite place to hang out is the Starbucks Cafe just as you cross the crosswalk into the main clinic on the second floor. I've been a patient of Dr. Nabors at The Kirklin Clinic for 10 years now, and I've always seen the Kirklin in the cleanest, working order. Unless you just happen to walk into the restroom right after someone made a mess, it's always clean. I don't use public restrooms. I seriously will go hours, but I will go to the restroom here. If you're interested in architecture, it's a beautiful building considering it's downtown Birmingham. It's a beautiful building situated anywhere.

I would recommend them to everyone. I drive almost 3 hours to see the doctors here. The doctors and all of the staff are so nice and welcoming. It is also very clean here. I’ve been going here 3 years and never had a bad encounter. Everyone does such a great job. 👏🏽

From the time I went in through the doors and left out the doors, I was treated with nothing but respect. I felt like I was home. Having traveled over 5 hrs the day before, for an 8am appointment the next morning, I was a little nervous about my visit and what to expect. My mind was put to ease the minute I arrived. Thank you UAB for making me feel at ease.

Most people come here because you gotta go through what you gotta go through to get your health back. I sat in chairs with stuff going out and stuff going in for treatment. I sat next to many others over the years in the same situation. It isn't fun but the Doctors, Nurses, and Techs just keep you going somehow until hopefully something works. They also seem to be those " smartest guys in the room" types that know what could work and what is worth a try. I am so very very grateful for the treatment I received here. Now, If we can just get that universal healthcare in our country so treatments aren't followed by all those zeros in the treatment bills.

Everyone was so patient regarding my mobility problems. There is valet parking. The nurse and doctor were thorough, and made a treatment plan that I could follow. I am going to use them from now on.

My husband had his first appointment at the Kirklin Clinic dept. of Neuroscience. We had a little trepidation because of the size of UAB Medical, and we had to drive 2.5 hours to get there. We shouldn't have worried; the clinic was easy to get to, the parking garage had plenty of spaces, directions to each floor were clear, and the people we spoke to about locations were helpful and friendly. Our medical staff was excellent: professional and personable—more importantly, they listened from the intake nurse to the doctor.
We couldn’t be happier with our experience at the Kirklin Clinic and highly recommend it to anyone who needs medical care.

Dr. Clarissa Thomas is the best of the best at facial reconstruction. I lost ny entire right cheek and most of my upper lip to a flesh eating bacterial infection. She has been able to do what no one else could or would even attempt to do in the last three years and I have seen doctors and surgeons throughout Alabama as well as the Cleveland Clinic in Miami. I highly recommend Dr. Thomas and the staff at the Kirkland Clinic of UAB.

Took a family member for heart evaluation. Very nice place.. From the valet parking all the way to 5 th floor everyone treats you with respect .. We needed a wheelchair not a problem... Someone picked her up at the front door took her to lab then took her to get EKG then up to 5th floor to see doctor.. at 2:30 someone picked her up took her to car. Thanks Kirkland...

Saw Dr. Marshall Holland today and google had me already on the operating table. Dr. Holland went over my MRI with me, discussed treatment/options, turns out Google was wrong lol He was very kind , did not rush, explained in detail and has excellent bedside manners. Kirklin Clinic is top notch. I was hoping the man was downstairs playing the piano, but today he wasn't. If you have to go, it's the place to be.

I been go here years . I have experience excellent service and I had great Doctores .

I love the staff and doctors. Everyone has made my health journey a positive thing.

Friendly staff! Everyone is working hard and quickly to keep limited wait time. Staff appears to be happy and actually enjoying providing different services from janitorial (clean and safe) to our nurse practitioner. Today has been a smooth and informative day. Thankful for the experience.

I drove all the way to MD Anderson to get a second opinion but ultimately decided to be treated at the O Neal Cancer center here in Birmingham. The staff is professional & I couldn't be more pleased with my decision. Everyone has been great to work with.

I love coming here. I do have to have a lot of testing right now. You cannot ask for more professional people to take care of you. They make sure that you're okay and explain everything. Some of the nicest staff I've ever seen.

I cannot thank Dr. Okor and his staff enough for giving me my life back. I had a botched back surgery in July of 2022 from a surgeon in Montgomery and I had been searching for someone to help me ever since. 4 surgeons turned me away over the course of 10 months. Even Dr. Okor was leery to help me at first but agreed to do an exploration surgery after I pleaded with him. Thank the lord he did because he found an extremely large CSF leak causing all my troubles for the past 10 months. I’m 1 week post op now and I feel amazing. All my symptoms are gone, I can walk again and care for my infant daughter. No amount of thanks will ever show how grateful my family and I are to this doctor and his staff. He gave me my life back.

I love Kirklin Clinic at UAB. They have a great parking deck adjacent to the clinic. Elevator's on each level for your convenience or if you want to be dropped off at the entrance on the 2nd floor you can do that. There are attendants there to check your temperature and see you have your mask on. If you need a wheelchair they will be happy to get you one. If the person who brought you is still
parking the car you can wait right there until they arrive where you are.
Once their temperature is checked and they have a mask on. You go through an enclosed crosswalk to the Kirklin Clinic. Once there someone will greet you and ask
where you are scheduled to be 1st.
If you need directions, like the first visit they told me exactly how to get to the sonar department. Then I had lab work scheduled, they told me what floor to go to. Then my doctor's appointment they told me where his office was located on what floor. It is so convenient for everything you need to have done to be in the same building. Everyone is good at their job very nice and welcoming. I would recommend Kirklin Clinic to everyone. All the Specialists you need are there for all your medical problems, test and procedure's. They have made me feel like I am getting the best care possible for me. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I was so impressed with UAB, Dr. Vaddiparti is Wonderful she listened to me and I felt that she addressed all my concerns and her staff is the best. Anything that needed to be addressed they were all more than willing to help me with and I couldn't ask for a better experience. If you are looking for wonderful healthcare please give Kirklin clinic of UAB hospital a try. This was my the personal experiences with their neurosciences department

Kirklin Clinic is the best! My PCP and several of my Specialists are located here. I have my testings, labs and radiology tests here when ordered. The Staff & Nurses are very professional & nice. And my health care is excellent with my Doctors. I’m thankful that they listen and we work together to help me maintain a healthy standard of lifestyle. I’m very satisfied! THANK UAB HOSPITALS!

Doctor was great. Staff was friendly.

This was my first visit here. I was very impressed with Dr Simpson and his staff in the ENT department. I live in Pensacola, Florida and had a heart ablation procedure done on 9/21. My vocal cords were damaged during this procedure and I lost my voice. The Cardiologist sent me to my ENT. He told me that my vocal cords were damaged/paralyzed and referred me to UAB voice center. I have an appointment with Dr Simpson on 6/2/22 to get an injection in my vocal cords to help me get my voice back. Looking forward to being able to talk with a normal voice again.
