20 Best Medical Assistant Programs In Cincinnati, OH (2022 Updated)

The University of Cincinnati is a magical place! One of the best public universities in the world. Top in research and innovation. Flowing with new opportunities. Committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion. A well-rounded community of students in countless career fields. Spaces for all to find their niche and a sense of belonging. A university that focuses both on academia and preparing its students for the real world. Forever grateful to have spent my undergraduate college days as a Bearcat. I learned so much at this great institution, acquired dozens of new experiences, made such sweet memories, and gained countless life-long friendships. Proud alum!Jillian Leedy

We were working on our project (Our Green Hope) today where we used 3000 reusable bags to make the largest mosaic. The worker at the campus were friendly and supportive. After finishing the project, all the 3K bags were given for FREE at Kroger to encourage people to start using reusable bags instead of plastic grocery bags. Thanks for all the love and support from UC.Sam Alyami

This is a great school. It’s in a fairly big city, but the school is not that big. The business school has already provided so many opportunities for my freshman.Cassie Jones

Horrible school. I attended the school for about 2 years and have a better experience at the DMV. I was told in high school by a Cincinnati State that my credits would transfer from Cincinnati State to University of Cincinnati seamlessly – they did not. In fact when I went to UC, they stated they could accept me as a transfer student but none, zero, NADA – of my credits would transfer. I applied to Miami University (Ohio) and was able to have 3 classes transferred. Miami was also cheaper at the time than Cincinnati State. I had to start all over from scratch after 2 useless years at Cincinnati State. The staff at Cincinnati State, including the teachers, were low quality. Staff seemed to brush off any concerns you have. Asking for help? Only the minimum is provided to guide you in the direction you need. Teachers mostly seemed to be low quality and bottom of the barrel – I only had 2 teachers that were okay out of 2 years. A few teachers I was able to show issues with tests or exams – although they agreed that I was correct at the time, one refused to fix the exam grades for everyone because "That is what the test key answer is and she would have to go back and regrade all the tests"… Sorry? That is literately your job… The next teacher could not understand the wording of their own test question that they provided (online) and would not correct the answer for the students. I communicated this error via email and was pushed away. I pushed back stating the teacher was incorrect and provided the work as to why the answer was wrong, in a professional tone. The teacher responded unprofessionally by changing the color of the text in the email to red, downplaying my proof, not using punctuation, and using unprofessional language. I dropped the class as this is not a teacher in my eye; but someone who is there for a paycheck. Cincinnati State had a graduation rate of just over 12% when I attended. 12% of students graduate from this school…. For the 2019 year it is now 17.9%. The odds of you attending this school for 2-3 years and graduating are very low. You are better off attending a real college if you are serious about your future. The overall poor quality as well. I have never experienced so many arguments between teachers and students in a classroom before. After class is over, everyone leaves campus immediately unless they have another class within the next hour or so. The current ad campaign that is on TV does not portray the school correctly. The average age of students is middle age. There is very few labs due to limited budget. Little to no student engagement events. Printers were not free. Book store was a COMPLETE ripoff, some classes did not require the book due to costs. Teachers would not communicate to students about schedule changes in tests and exams effectively for online classes (I missed my final Physics exam due to this). Save 2 years of your life and go somewhere else. I am not the only one with a really bad experience. If you know someone that attended or attends Cincinnati State, talk to them. You will typically find they did not graduate or they think it is okay but plan to transfer to another school before they finish. Take my advice and stay away from Nati State. -Brad, MSHIBrad Mueller

My experience at Cincinnati State was something of a mixed bag. I had previously attended a 4-year university but was seeking a career change. Given the low cost of attendance that community colleges provide, I figured that Cincinnati State would be a great option. My first year of studies were great. I had some very kind professors who genuinely cared about the students and the material that they taught. Some faculty members could be a bit rude at times, but that is to be expected in higher education. After my first year, I truly felt like I was on the way to great success. My second year on the other hand turned out to be quite the opposite. During my first semester back from co-op, I received notification that I had been dropped from two classes without explanation. Upon reaching out to the registrar, I was told to contact my program chair/advisor. Upon reaching out to my advisor, I was not given any guidance. I felt like I was really left to my own devices to try to figure out how to schedule my classes. In addition, I found the teaching quality to be quite disappointing. In the one class that I was able to take that semester, my professor did not once hand out a syllabus or explain the grading rubric. I persistently asked him when grades would be given back, and he would give me a specific date. Only once did he ever give back grades on said date. The rest were given at the end of the semester, thus leaving all students in a state of anxiety over what our final grade would be. He stressed the importance of attendance and punctuality but was hardly ever on time for class. On some occasions, he even made me late to work because class would run over. For these reasons as well as the problems mentioned earlier about the administration, I decided not to return to Cincinnati State. In short, Cincinnati State is a good option for those seeking a low-cost education, and there are some great programs and professors here. However, the unorganized and highly bureaucratic administration combined with some exceptionally unprofessional professors keep the school from being as great as it could be. Please tread lightly if considering Cincinnati State now or in the future.Nick Workman

My review was removed probably by google because I mentioned that I don’t appreciate how their curriculum is trying to indoctrinate you. It’s other wise a good school. I got my degree in two years and had no problems. The instructors for my program were great. But it’s absurd in my opinion that a college feels the need to assert their opinions in to every core class. My English class was consistently wanting us to watch TED talks that talked about political standpoints. My sociology professor was the absolute worst. Even if you did an assignment and followed the rubric, but disagreed with her opinion, she would give you a lower score. Then try to justify it by using her own opinion as sources. She also said that anyone who believes in God is likely uneducated. Overall, my experience was good and I’m glad I got my degree here. But it’s just too liberal for my taste.Britt Jones

I wouldn’t be where I am today without the excellent preparation and wonderful environment of Ursuline Academy during my formative teenage years. From the lower student to faculty ratio, which provided intimate mentoring and great 1:1 interaction, to the ability to fine-tune schedules to best fit our individuals goals and aspirations, Ursuline values each student and aims to help her thrive and be the best woman she can be. As I am now a PhD candidate in engineering, I can affirm that my early exposure to engineering classes at Ursuline helped provide a strong foundation for my eventual career path. Mrs. Nunez helped expose me to real-world engineering problems, and took us on field trips to talk to engineers in practice. While one could argue that these skills and experiences could be acquired at any school, I truly think that Ursuline is different in that the faculty encourage young women to pursue STEM and other ambitious career paths, particularly in the face of adversity. Published research shows that young women are vulnerable to dropping out of such career paths and losing interest in STEM if they are not immediately perfect (I.e., get all A’s) at it. Ursuline professors went beyond the call of just teaching, but actively mentored and coached us in our chosen disciplines. As a result, myself and many of my fellow classmates have achieved advance degrees and significant accolades in our career paths compared to our friends at other area schools. Beyond the academic portion of Ursuline, I was impressed with the variety of clubs and organizations offered. There are clubs for every interest and students are encouraged to start their own if they feel a need for it. I appreciated Ursuline’s commitment to free speech and letting students organize and explore causes, extra curriculars, and experiences that were important to them. For example, during my time there, I was able to found the Ursuline chapter of United for UNIFAT, which provided support for impoverished students in Africa. In sum, I would go back all over again if I had the opportunity. And considering high school can be a tumultuous time for many, I consider that a strong endorsement.MJ H

Attending Ursuline Academy was one of the best decisions I could have ever made. The education was superior, and gave me a foundation that prepared my for university and beyond. Ursuline was critical in developing my time management skills, emotional intelligence, and helped me become the strong, independent woman that I am today. In addition to the items listed above, Ursuline's course load is unique compared to other high schools in the area. While there, I was encouraged to take an Introduction to Engineering class, which exposed me to the field and eventually led to my decision to pursue engineering in college . Having never considered engineering prior to the class, I do not know if I would have known that was an option for me otherwise. This is an incredible school that continues to amaze me with it's dedicated students, faculty, staff, and alumnae.Jenna Shallcross

I could not be happier with my daughter’s education. We chose Ursuline because we felt its ideals and mission were very similar to Jesuit Catholicism, and because it has an unparalleled reputation for educational excellence. It’s an environment that isn’t afraid to explore tough and controversial topics, and one that gives our daughters a chance to learn how to think on their own. I’d much prefer this over a school that provides black and white answers to an increasingly colorful world. I’m happy that my daughter has learned how to be strong and confident in her beliefs, regardless if they are the same as her classmates or not. If you want your daughter to grow up learning that it’s cool to be smart, and to feel empowered to be a confident and independent thinker, then you are coming to the right place.Craig & Jen Doerger

As I approach the end of my studies I wanted to take the time to say that I absolutely loved Beckfield College. The flexibility of having fully remote courses made it very easy for me tobcomplete study with 2 babies. Instead of having to worry about sitters and sitting in class for hours at a time multiple times a week. When problems did arise I recieved prompt assistance and the staff was simply amazing. I absolutely loved the computer the school supplied and was so thrilled when i was informed it was covered under warrenty after my daughter broke it. With no questions asked Beckfield's staff made it very easy to ensure all necessary materials for sucessful studying were aquired. Not to mention the huge benefit of the 6 week courses and the quicker progression than other facilities. If your looking to go back to school I highly recommend Beckfield College and thier tuitions aren't through the rough. Financial aid is also amaxing in assisting you every step of the way through the fasfa and grant opportunities. Thanks for reading have a great day and choose beckfield!Nakeya Sowders

I transferred to Beckfield from another college in January of this year and it has been nothing but great! Every class is very focused and driven to the success of every student, the class sizes are much better for my learning style, and all the people from students to staff are just so caring in general. There are so many services offered for students, and they do anything they can to help you with your financial situation, academically, job search, and life school balance.Lindsay Steenken

I’ve been at Beckfield since January 2021 and I absolutely love this college. Since it’s a smaller college, I’m able to get one on one time with my instructors. The teachers also take time to come in and help me with topics I’m struggling in. All the staff are very sweet and helpful!Adelle N

I went to OVCT for the MA program. My experience at OVCT was very positive. My number one concern when going to school is knowing that if anything happens they will have my back and during all the situations I went through when attending school they were there to help me out and accommodate my classes so it would be easier for me to finish them without having to drop out school. The staff and instructors are very nice and they help everyone in any way they can. They are kind and friendly and your success is there number one priority. I would drive 1 hr to school and 1 hr back home but it was worth it because I wouldn't find a school with such amazing people near my town. With a person like me with social anxiety and having English as a second language completing a program like Medical Assisting is really a success but I also know that I wouldn't be able to finish the program without the help I received from OVCT.Dejanira Cosme

The nursing program admission process is very easy and Donna will help you to understand the process and all of the requirements to get into the program. Becca will help you to get all of the financial aid requirements completed to get your education funded. All of the nursing instructors are great! They spend alot of time helping the students and assuring that we fully understand the many different topics covered throughout the program. The evening and weekends class/clinical schedule is prefect for people like me who work!Richard Bailey

Ohio Valley College of Technology is a great place to learn. Everyone of the Instructors are always willing to help. I have encountered a few instructors that have gone over an above to help myself as well as other fellow students to succeed. I appreciate all that they do and am very greatful for them. I have learned a great deal in my field of study. I would recommend coming to OVCT to anyone who is wanting a great education and wanting to be part of a wonderful family.Heather Mooney

Medical Assisting Degree Program, Louisville, KY Its scary going back to school, especially college. I was worried when I started in 2017 that I had told all these people about my new goal in life and the first semester already feeling like giving up and letting everyone that cheered me on down. But I kept pushing and moving forward and it got easier and easier and ATA and the teachers really encourage you, the first semester was really hard for me but there was so many teachers that checked on me and helped me to see the light at the end of the tunnel. ATA IS THE PLACE TO BE. You will make the best decision of your life if you come to this school. Here I am graduating in May with my Associate Degree in Medical Assisting. And I have been on the Honor Roll each semester. You can do it ! Come to ATA.Joy Shacklett

Been in the Limited Medical Radiography Program with Medical Assisting, and it has been AMAZING! Love the small classes! & The Instructors are by far the most involved with every student and are dedicated to them as well. Very passionate in their teaching. All of the staff from ATA from Admissions and Financial Aid and Student Services are also very dedicated, helpful and GREAT! Last but not least The President! He is super uber Amazing! He visits the classes, greets every student, personally hands out the Honors or President Awards to the students who've earned them. Also looks for better ways to improve ATA. So, if you're looking for a College to Attend to, ATA College is where its at!! 😀dulce matlala

I have been attending ATA since may 2017 and I am proud to say that I will be finished December 15, 2017. The staff at ATA are truly amazing and a blessing. They push you and help you so much throughout your Journey. Attending ATA has been one of the best decisions that I have made. If your looking to further your education in the medical field ATA is a great place to start that Journey. The staff is always there to help they have one on on interaction with students if the they need to help and they are always there to help you throughout your journey through school and after you have graduated. I want to think all the staff at ATA for this amazing experience I am truly grateful.Courtney Brown

Dr. Weeks and his staff are so incredibly helpful and friendly! I expected a very clinical, cold doctor and staff; Idk why but I expected it to be hard to a doctor about why I need medical marijuana. Dr. Weeks (& staff) remove all of that stigma, anxiety, and awkward tension immediately. He talks to you about any & all symptoms your trying to relieve; gives you advice based on what your needs & what is currently available at nearby dispensaries. Will continue seeing Dr. Weeks & recommend him to anyone considering getting their card. He's got a 30 minute consultation appointment if you just want to talk about your options, eligibility, etc before taking the plunge also. He works with all of his patients, just have to communicate with the staff! Excellent!!Rachel Snider

Taking the time to thank Dr Weeks and his staff for outstanding service today! Dr Weeks was very knowledgable in discussing his field expertise around care and I was able to have all my questions heard and answered in a consultative manner. You can book your appt either online via Zoom or walk in at their office, which is what I did. Would highly recommend this location to all! Thanks-ChrisChris Lynch

Dr. Weeks was attentive and informative. I just renewed my card through him. Process is easy and his staff very helpful. In my opinion though the best part is he is a real, local, and independent doctor. Your not just a number your his patient. Unlike the out of town corporate places and websites out there. Thanks Dr. Weeks. See you next year for my annual renewal.Jared Hicks

I saw Dr. Stephanski for a knee injury and he was great! He alone would get 5 stars for his care. The 3 stars are for the absolute NIGHTMARE of actually getting to surgery. His “scheduler” Susan gave less than 24 hours notice for when I needed to show up for surgery (yes she told me when my surgery was for the very first time THE NIGHT BEFORE) and I had to frantically call out of town relatives to arrange a ride with no notice at all. I had called the direct number Susan personally gave me, highlighted and in bold print for her direct office phone line which I called a total of 19 times in the 8 days leading up to the actual surprise surgery date and she did NOT answer the phone even a SINGLE time. Why have a phone, if you never plan on answering it?! I tried methodically at different times throughout the normal workday and never once reached her. I only ever eventually got her to call me back by calling the normal office desk and explaining my situation to a sympathetic secretary who apparently directly confronted her. Overall it was extremely anxiety-inducing, stressful, and just really unprofessional. She could have at least returned a phone call to say they didn’t have the information yet, but that she was working on it, instead of leaving patients in the void.Swimmy Chick

I had initially became a patient to Dr Mark Yuhas in April with a broken thumb and also a broken hand , wrist area and forearm later a few months after. I had a very good experience with this group. Dr Yuhas listened to my concerns and explained what might happen if my hand wasn't healing properly. The whole staff from receptionist, therapy, x-ray, therapist assistants and Dr Yuhas are fabulous with patients. I highly recommend them to everyone in need. Hopefully I won't be back. If ever I need an orthopedic doctor and services, it will definitely be OrthoCincy! They are the best. Thank you for taking such great care of me ❣️ I would also like to thank Barb from therapy. She was so pleasant and helped me recover with motion range beyond belief for my elbow plus my hand. Kudos to this staff!Trish Hamm

This was my first time at OrthoCincy and I was quite impressed. Everyone was friendly and professional. This was my first time seeing Dr. Yuhas. Again, I was quite impressed. He was very personable and very thorough. He took the time to explain in detail what the x-rays showed, to discuss the course of action, and to answer all of my questions. And there was no wait! I was called back at my appointment time. My visit was a very positive experience!Virginia Brezinski

When looking for a location to complete STNA classes I was struggling to find one that would accommodate my current work schedule. Thankfully I found Paradigm! They offer evening classes so I am still able to work my regular job while going to school. All of the teachers I have encountered are incredibly knowledgeable and truly want you to succeed. They provide excellent first hand knowledge to help prepare us for the test, and the real working world. I feel very well prepared for my state test, and I know it is because of the excellent experience I have had at Paradigm.Stephanie Hyle

This place is amazing. Unfortunately I had to take online classes due to the pandemic but the classes and service was super duper amazing. Online classes had just as much info. I liked online classes and if I had a question it was always a quick response. Michael, Shayla, and Kay where so fun to be with. They made the class serious but fun.They are very good teachers, very knowledgeable and are willing to help in any way. They really want you to succeed. I really got my money's worth in this class. I will recommend to all my friends.Alicia Green

I just got finished with the STNA class with Paradigm and i can say this was THE BEST decision i could have made! The instructors are thorough and not only want you to succeed but do everything in their power to make sure this happens. They truly care! Don't let the online part intimidate you either, it is so doable and the instructors are just a message away at all times! The clinicals were so much fun which made it even easier to just soak it all in! 100/10 recommend to anyone and everyone!!Catie Yoak

If you’re rehabbing from an injury the team at NovaCare will take fantastic care of you. Every person I’ve met has been kind and helpful. From Tiffany at the front desk, to Marcin the center manager, and my therapist Yelena. Bonnie was always there too with a smile on her face and a friendly hello. I do want to give special thanks to Yelena for her strength, kindness, and consideration. She’s very professional yet personal. Sometimes she would be overwhelmed with a few patients at once but she was always great managing multiple sessions and focusing her attention on the right things. Due to how I’m healing I’m not sure I’ll need to go back, but having done a few sessions earlier I’ve gotten stronger and definitely gotten more range of motion back. It can be scary after you’ve gotten an injury or gone through surgery, but the team at NovaCare is here to help. I definitely recommend their services to everyone in the area who are looking to heal. So thank you!Ying Liang

Yelena, the main physical therapist at NovaCare rehabilitation in Oakley has been an amazing physical therapist. I’ve had multiple knee surgeries in the past and other sports related injuries where I attended Physical Therapy through other providers. NovaCare’s staff in Oakley has done an amazing job with my shoulder rehab after 4 major surgeries. Yelena is extremely knowledgeable and motivating, but she also is thoughtful and understands the rehabilitation process and will not push further than she knows your body can handle. This goes for the rest of the staff. Everyone at this location is knowledgeable and experienced. I highly recommend NovaCare Oakley for any PT needs.Christopher Ipacs

If you are looking for a REHABILITATION CENTER i know the place that will be the best choice for you NOVACARE OAKLEY STATION you will get great care starting with the Manager Marcin Jez and his friendly PHYSICAL THERAPY STAFF with a good clean work out station i am hard to please and i am very happy with the choice that i made you will also .Luke League

This place is a joke! They do not inform you of all information, they just push you in there to get your money. I received a phone call thinking it was more information about the program next thing I know I’m enrolled! Tried online classes, seem great but they barley reach out when you need help by the time they do you can’t finish your assignments on time. When I told them I wanted to drop out it was not a good time it took two weeks for them to call me and the only information they gave me was “if you want to come back you can enroll in our next classes in 30 days.” They do not give you enough time to figure out whether you even like the program or check up on you unless you miss payments then they’re blowing up your phone everyday. It has been 4 months and I received a letter that I owe them over a grand, even though I was only there a week, I was told past 3 days you automatically have to pay a percentage. Tried to call and ask about my laptop to help lower my owed balance and was told that because it was opened an past 30 days I can’t return it. ONE they made us open it in class to do the work which took 3 days to even get and TWO never mentioned you Have 30 days to return it once dropped out. I have a friend, whose almost graduated, being harassed with calls by multiple people about payment when she’s told them the dates she would make payments. They put on a good friendly I care about you act but it’s all about getting money.maranda jackson

Teachers and staff are amazing! I went when the pandemic first started and we did online schooling. It was still very organized and if I ever had any questions I was always able to get ahold of someone. They helped get me prepared for the RMA exam. I graduated in December, completed my Externship and have completed and passed my RMA exam and now am working with an amazing group of nurses and doctors. I honestly couldn’t have done this without everyone at Ross! So very thankful and would recommend anyone to come here if they are looking to further there education in the medical industry. 🙂♥️Lindsay Warth

I enrolled at Ross Medical Education in September this year after waiting years for a Veterinary Assistant program to be available in my area. I am so grateful to Ross for this opportunity to fulfill my dreams of becoming a Vet Asst. Every Staff member has treated me like family. I couldn't ask for more however I was also blessed with the best and most knowledgeable instructor I have ever met, Ms. Tessa White. I look forward to each and everyday of school. My director Mrs A is absolutely the best..I love Ross as if it was a part of my family.Tina Mullins

I have been using Seven Hills Women's Health Center for 20 years, and I must say the atmosphere and customer service of the front desk has gone downhill immensely since years past. It used to be a warm and inviting atmosphere. The ladies working seemed to care about their position. Unfortunately, I am not able to say that anymore. The staff at the desk was a bit rude and the entire time I was in the waiting room, all they did was gossip and talk about patients. Not at all a good look. The entire front desk staff were all newer it seemed to me (since my last visit last year when I gave birth). I had not ever seen any of them before. Had a visit with Dr. Rahe, who was just as kind and amazing as he has always been. His assistant was as sweet as ever. (She was a familiar face as well.) It was the forefront that was not a pleasant experience. But that can cause one's outlook to change drastically.Steffanie Bode

I've only been a patient of Seven Hill's, and after today I'll be seeking care elsewhere! My original OBGYN "retired" from what I was told. Now I see why. The practice is not what it used to be. I still have the upmost respect for my ORIGINAL OB. However, the doctor that I saw today had me in tears! I was asking questions, as one should, about my body and health to better understand my appointment; I'm not sure if this doctor didn't like how I worded my questions, or was just purposefully argumentative! But I was coming from a place of genuine concern. Never have I had a doctor be so physically rough with me. I said, "OUCH" more than once. Though the doctor nonchalantly expressed that whatever I'm going through isn't life or death so therefore it's fine. I wasn't bleeding when I walked in, but I am now. And no, it's not my period.Emily D

Dr. McCarthy is very easy to talk to – she's very master-of-fact about delicate subjects. It really helps. Many practices focus mainly on younger women and obstetrics, so it was great to find a place to help me through some of the tougher aspects of being post menopausal. I took 1 star off because they do not use MyChart, like most of my other Mercy physicians do – that would make things far more efficient for me and for them. I had to keep looking things up on MyChart on my phone to give them information i felt they should've had access to already.Nancy Davis

I was a little hesitant about going back to school to get my Master's degree after a long hiatus between my Bachelor's but I am extremely glad that I chose UC Online! Not only am I getting an MBA from a renowned school of business in Lindner, but the way UC Online managers their programs makes it painless. I had experts walk me through the application process and help me with everything through my enrollment and then I had a professional with me to answer questions and help me throughout the program! You never feel alone or by yourself.Brian Eck

Going to school online has never been so easy. I thought I'd be alone taking an online program, but my teachers, advisors, and fellow students have made me feel comfortable about going back to school. I can't wait to graduate with my degree from UC Online!Benjamin Smith

UC Online truly makes signing up for online classes a breeze. The recruiters are easy to talk to, and really help make sure you sign up for the program that is best for you and your professional/educational goals.Beau Wyrick

I do not have enough words to describe how pleased we are with Assisting Hands. My daughter was getting married and my mother-in-law is in a memory care facility with Alzheimer’s. It was very important to my husband, daughter and I that she be able to attend the wedding but there were a lot of challenges/logistics involved. I contacted Assisting Hands and Greg immediately put my mind at ease that they would be able to help. We first met with Marla who came to the memory care facility to meet us and my mother-in-law. Marla immediately made me feel like we were making the right decision to hire Assisting Hands. From there Kathy was assigned. I cannot say enough about Kathy. She was professional, kind and companionate. She went above and beyond. She was so sweet with my mother-in-law and she fit right into the wedding. She made sure that she was well taken care of, but also helped so she could be a part of the formal possession into the wedding ceremony, got her into pictures and made it so she could not just attend, but participate. Thank you, Assisting Hands, for making it possible for my daughter to have her grandmother her wedding. It meant the world to us!!Suzie Kroeger

As I turn 65 in a few days, I want to give an awesome & abundant shout out to one of the biggest blessings in my life, Assisting Hands Cincinnati & Northern KY. They are a team-oriented Christian family home company providing exceptional health care for their clients. I have worked there as a caregiver for 4 years & I get excited about going to work every day. The blessing for me is meeting new clients & their families & bringing some peace, joy, laughter, & stress relief for both sides. Assisting Hands is the only home care company that I know that is offering client-centered dementia training to caregivers, office staff, & families so that we can better communicate with their loved one as a "Care Partner". People often forget that their loved one with dementia is still a real person with thoughts & needs. Assisting Hands is partnering in care with clients & families to maximize a client's best life experiences with love, dignity, & respect! I am proud, happy, & blessed to be a part of the Assisting Hands family. It is the best job I have ever had!Melissa C. Abbott

The team at Assisting Hands gets a 5 rating. I had never had any experience with any type of home care until this past summer. Kate came out to the home and went through all the expectations that I had and that her team would expect. She gave me several helpful tips for when my father would come home and what I could do to make his home a safer environment. It didn't take long to get a steady team of caregivers that I trusted and my father liked. They were always on time and followed my care instructions to the letter. Loved the very detailed daily input forms as how he did during the day/night while I was not there. The team that came out was also prepped ahead of time as to what to expect and if there were any special instructions – it's these tiny details that makes this company outstanding.Kim Speagle

My experience with Dr. Crellin was that I was properly informed about my health care and options from the first day I arrived in his office in 2016. He performed rotator cuff surgeries on each of my shoulders and the scars are barely noticeable. I was so impressed, and healed so greatly, as well as very timely, that I had no qualms about referring others to Dr. Crellin, and ultimately, they too were equally impressed with the results of their care and work. He is honest and upfront and didn’t perform unnecessary surgery, but gave you other options for treatment. Last but not least, his staff has always been great (past and present). They were all helpful with my concerns, knowledgeable, and I felt as at ease walking out of Beacon Orthpaedics and Sports Medicine as I had in the past. I was a patient of his before Dr. Crellin moved to Beacon Orthopaedics and I hadn’t realized at the time he moved on because so much time and a pandemic had passed since I was diagnosed and treated. I’ll end this review by saying, that his outstanding quality of medical care is exceptional, he’s knowledgeable and I highly recommend Dr. Crellin. I even felt bad that I had to return to his office because my life choices caused me re-injury to his great work!Yunick Kendall

Went to see Dr Crellin for pain in my knees. Was fantastic at diagnosing it with Arthritis. Gave great examples on explaining. He had wonderful personality. Made me feel super comfortable. Had to get cortisone shots. Normally wouldn’t had done that due to hate pain but definitely needed it honestly. He made me feel comfortable about it and when he did it I felt no pain at all with it! Thank you Dr Crellin for everything. Highly recommend him.Kristi Fisher

Dr. Crellin is GREAT! His manner is friendly, engaged, knowledgeable, and you can tell he wants the best for you, even if it means visiting another Dr. He listens and doesn't make you feel rushed. Anything you have to say is important to treating your condition.. I've been a patient for years and he has take very good care of me and my health problems. I even recommended him to my Mother and he took very good care of her.ROSE CALHOUN

The care I received at Beacon after complicated fractures of the tibia was of exceptionally quality. All the staff is friendly and courteous. The manner of working is efficient and with great personal care. Questions are dealt with on same day base. I had this experience at the doctor’s offices at Sharonville and Anderson, Physical Therapy, MRI and the administration department. Dr. McClung is not only an excellent orthopedic surgeon but his down to earth manner and positive attitude with great eye for detail, kept me positive and motivated. He is very good in coming up with creative solutions for difficult problems. The wait might be a little longer sometimes but having a doctor who always listens carefully and is always well informed and clearly has a passion for his work , is definitely worth that! I am very grateful for all the personal care and attention. Johanna PoortmanGerald Hazelaar

Dr. Hamilton and his staff are Wonderful! Surgery was a breeze, I was back to myself in no time. My only complaint, I had to pay $20 in order to have a work note filled out. I was never told I had the option to have them send one for free, if I had one filled out that I had brought to them it would be $20. You spend thousands of dollars on surgery, therapy etc and to have a $20 work note be an issue to get is very frustrating. I truly hope you reconsider this, its all about the principle. Thank you!Nicole Engle

— My 2 pm appointment did not start until 2:30. If he were coming to my office to do his tax return, he would not wait for 30 minutes. — He asked me how I felt. I said the PT had helped a lot. He looked at a two-month old xay and that was the extent of the examination. — The "back issue" turned out to be arthritis and not my back. — I was not at all happy with the visit and feel that I wasted my time and $30.

Saw the Dr 2 wks early because having trouble with wrist they got me in 2 wks early so he could look at it told me everything was looking good and suggested I started therapy as soon as possilbe to help with swelling and getting more movement to my wrist. They are very nice and thoughtful they put my mind at ease. I would suggest the dr and his staff to all of my friends and have already had 2 people called him.Dona Leverenz

My child (16 years old) saw Dr. Faruqui after some disappointing visits to Cincinnati Children's for a broken wrist. We were confident in the care and compassion we received. Hand Therapy and casting is a seperate check in process but they were also kind and professional.Melissa Hendrix

All staff members were friendly, efficient and patient. The doctor explained everything thoroughly, and I knew exactly what to expect. He also took the time to answer all of my questions.Dottie Lustig

By looking at the reviews, I guess it would have been better had my husband been at Select a few years ago. There are a few stand out ppl who work there but my husband has been in their "care" since July 7 and I have never met his doctor, he's been neglected and abused (which were reported and I still have no idea if or how they were reprimanded) My husband is now back in ICU and back on a ventilator and I 100% believe it is due to their neglect. The day he was sent to ICU, I walked into his room, the door was closed and he was gasping for air and his o2 was at 84% and nobody was alerted nor helping him, I had to call someone for help and that wasn't the first time! Avoid this place for anyone you love!! I'm looking into other options once he's released from ICU but unfortunately, Select is the only LTAC in town so we're stuck with them. I'm praying they don't kill him before I can get him out of there!!Denise Wolfer

My dad was recently a patient there. He was there for several weeks. Even though he was ready to move on to the next strep, he said he would miss everyone. I can’t say enough great things about this place. They treated my dad great and that was very reassuring to us. The Doctors, nurses, aides, respiratory therapists and physical and occupational therapists were the best. I can’t remember everyone’s names but there are a few who went above and beyond. Case Manager Sondra, Nurse Jennifer, CNA’s Melissa and April, OT and PT Dannie, Wes and I think Allison and Melissa and all the respiratory therapists I think Beth and Patty who got my dad where he is today. I would definitely recommend this place!!!Molly Pierson

I had a wonderful experience during my time at this hospital. The entire staff was attentive to my needs , friendly and always willing to go the extra mile to help me. I'm very grateful to the doctors who hoped and prayed that I'd come back from being on a ventilator over a month. They were very patient and willing to help me. A special thanks though to the entire occupational and physical therapy team. You helped me in so many ways. You were there showing me various ways to help myself get stronger , giving great advice that would benefit me. I Am a Success story and it's a miracle I'm still alive because of you. Thank you for your love and a sincere caring heart.David DeMarco

We waited over an hour with no update of the wait time. I saw other people being notified that there would be a long wait time so they were able to leave and come back. With all of the other notifications you all are able to send out. It would be helpful for the front desk to communicate that the doctor is running an hour beind OR send out a notification (via text, phone call, etc.) telling us there will be a delay. There was not one apology given for the inconvenience of having to wait. We arrived for a 9:40 appointment and weren't back in the room until 10:40. I understand things happen but what I am upset about it the lack of communication to me about the situation. Very inconsiderate and rude. Especially when I see that information being voluntarily given to other individuals. If I could rate below a 1 I would. Do better beacon at communicate to ALL waiting patients.Cierra Brewer

Long delay waiting after my appt time was scheduled, the preregistering app is clunky and long, it also has errors in it that you have to fudge non-applicable data in to get it to move to next page, I saw a PA, not my preferred doctor, did X-ray before the PA even saw me , not sure that was the right steps for diagnosis and not sure the cost I will have to pay for the X-ray, nurse was not versed in explaining the physical therapy instructions, I left uniformed on my questions on the stretches and band work, PA seemed pretty knowledgeable but not who I wanted to see. I may not have picked Beacon if I knew this , not sure if they pass on the lower cost or charge me the same price to see the top surgeon I wanted…. they have some room for improvement, previous experiences for my kids few years ago was a full notch or two betterDan Grinstead

Beacon Rehab and Physical Therapy (Summit Woods) canceled the last 6 rehab sessions of a purchased package of 8 scheduled sessions (spanning 2 weeks), related to distance running for my son. They refused to make a full refund, even though the therapist acknowledged that scheduling 2 sessions, without more, would have made no sense and would have provided little benefit. (We certainly would never have purchased just 2 sessions of rehab.) I just felt that this refusal was really petty on the part of Beacon Rehab — and far below the high standards set by Beacon's orthopedic physicians and surgeons. Seek your rehab and physical therapy services elsewhere.Daniel Zegarski
