20 Best Surgical Tech Programs In Grand Rapids, MI (2022 Updated)

Writing a review for UNMC is an emotional task for me because they have been there for my mom and family through life, sickness, recovery, health, and even death. In all they've been there for they did right, without judgement or bias, and with care, hope, and support. I live in Kansas, but I know this hospital and all the towers better than some streets near my home. I've interacted with many specialty doctors, nurses, techs, housekeeping staff, ER, security team members, and so many others. We've experienced teams in Kidney Transplant, Wound Care, Cardiovascular, Cardiology, Ophthalmology, ENT, Derm, Cancer Center, and the Comfort Care Team. I can tell you that these teams are here because they love what they do. If you're considering UNMC as a new place to care for your needs I would do so without hesitation. When my mom moved they were so helpful in her transition to Kansas. Without them we'd be lost. We will miss each of her teams, their knowledge, and their care. It was so hard to leave.Tam E

Very disappointed in care provided. Nursing seems sorely under staffed. Although they frequently have cell phone in hand. Communication between staff (doctors and nursing staff)is lacking. Communication of providers and patients is insufficient. Facility is dirty dusty and run down. And should we talk about HIPPA….nothing to talk about….it doesn't exist there. Hep locks do not get flushed even after several days….negligent much? Showers/bed baths not offered to patient even after 3 days in-house. Are they trying for some nosocomial infections?S B

Today I went to Nebraska medical center and the eye clinic. The people that are very friendly and nice it's clean has three levels. The doctor I seen seem very knowledgeable and was very concerned with my eye condition it was funny when we first pulled up and parked in the first row there was a broom next to the handicap sign made me laugh remind me of handicap which parking. Someone probably had clean snow off their car with the broom and left it there.Karen Beautiful

Went to Trilogy beauty salon for a haircut and hair color appointment. Student did a really nice job on both. All the students were dressed professionally They were wearing nice looking smocks unlike some other beauty schools were they wore whatever they wished Trilogy salon uses very high quality products which is appreciated Students do take more time completing a hair cut or hair color Instructors are there if they have any questions and everything they do is looked at by the teacher Students gain valuable experience there Highly recommendedKathy Salm

Affordable for gen eds but for a technical college they have some of the worse tech issues I have every seen my I have seen middle schools with better technical support. Do not take there advice on what laptop to buy since I was told to buy a Microsoft brand laptop but I needed to add every chrome extension needed to even access half the course material. I had to ask my instructors to use my personal email only since I could send emails through my school one but could not read any of the instructors emails.Gunfire Productions

Let's just say I'm no spring chicken. I got my Industrial electrical apprenticeship at the age of 46 and at the age of 50 I graduated. It was not an easy thing for me. But the program was excellent and they gave me alot of skills I use everyday at my job. Some days I think I should have tried fitting the instrumentation specialist into my schedule some how but with work hours it wouldn't have work. Id say they have everything you need to succeed at FVTC, because if I can do it at my age anybody can there!Heath Mischke

I really believe that Michigan Tech is an exceptional school. I am a high school counselor and I visited there as part of one of their counselor visit programs. They have a lot of excellent programs and a student well leave there well prepared for a career. One of the drawbacks is that it’s very far north in the state of Michigan which a lot of students don’t necessarily want to go that far. But if they do want to go that far it’s worth the trip. There’s also a lot of great aspects to the campus like you can ski for free there’s a lot of outdoorsy types of things to do and it’s right on the river.Jacob McLouth

University: Great school. Amazing management and very friendly people. If you have it in you then getting a professor to fund you is not very hard. Lots of on-campus part time job opportunities. Location: Though the scenic beauty is amazing and being a college town really has its perks when it comes to safety, life gets really really boring if you are not a fan of the snow or the cold. Conclusion: If you like to study, have a peaceful environment and go to a club like once or twice per semester then this is the place!Amey Sawant

A good University for mechanical engineering for design, manufacturing, IC engines, combustion, thermal, hybrid electric vehicle,etc. I specifically loved the location of the University, it's a beautiful city. For person who like to hang out more, it doesn't have much of things as u will expect from an American city. It also doesn't have any Indian restaurant. So overall it's a nice place to study and live in.Rushikesh attarde

I plan on transferring here to finish my MBA and so far the institute has been awesome, very helpful and informative. One of a few schools if you meet undergrad GPA requirements (3.4+) for their program you can skip the GMAT and gain entry into their program. Extremely fair cost of attendance @ roughly $570 per credit hour. Look forward to continuing this relationship! Oh and @ Nicole Marriott are you really leaving a poor review because you signed up for college and agreed to pay for it and are being held accountable for your debt? Seriously? If you sign up at any institute, private or public, once you sign the paper you are held accountable for the debt you enter. What is wrong with people these days? Nicole grow up and take responsibility for your actions.Zt Sig

The professors are amazing. You really have a feeling that they want you to succeed. Once you graduate they really just drop you. I tried working with career services and they only met once then dropped you. Really disappointed in the behavior of no longer a check coming in we no longer care. I have an amazing work history with several degrees but this new degree is transferring over to something new. So I really wanted help in the job search and advice in moving into something different. I wonder what their actual job placement percentage is. I am just so disappointed because it really could be a great school and the professors really have a passion for teaching.Natalie Roe

I attended night classes to try and finish my degree as an adult. I am told that classes during the day are very different. My experience was incredibly frustrating. The professor of my computer class struggled to log in to her computer and often asked me to help answer questions for the class. I took a speech class and the professor did not grade students on an even scale. The highest grade in the class was the student that wrote her entire speech and then read it without ever looking up. That is only a couple. Almost every in seat class was poorly taught.Shanleyhan

I appreciate Rasmussen University for having an abundance of resources and many professors and other staff members who demonstrate they want students to succeed. I especially have enjoyed being a peer educator, being privileged to work with Tammy Hopps who is an excellent supervisor and leader, and also being able to work with other peer educators who care for their peers as much as I do. I transferred from a local state college, which I considered sticking with to save money, but in reality, not much is saved when you compare the timeframe for graduation. At the state college it would take me an extra 2 whole years to receive my BSN, whereas at Rasmussen I save 2 years of time because of their second-degree BSN option. I am very pleased with the quality of technology – at the state school blackboard and other resources were slow and did not work as well on my cell phone, whereas with Rasmussen I can easily access everything I need from my phone when I'm on the go. It's inspiring to see so many single parents and married parents in school, some of which also work full time or part time like myself while completing their degree. Highly recommend!HappyNessa11:11& Family

I had such high hopes when enrolling at this school. However my experience hasn't been favorable at all. I am a current student and I was disappointed because even though I was able to enroll and start classes I really felt unsupported on this journey. I'm realizing Rasmussen may not be the school for me. I REALLY thought I would be supported and encouraged. I was made to feel that Rasmussen would be rooting for me through my academic journey. Instead I am bombarded with emails and calls telling me what I already know… I owe money. No calls or emails about how I can be helped to budget so that I can pay more toward the balance. I'm only being told: what I owe, to get the balance down to $500-$1000 and to take out loans; which will only put me in debt and it's too early to be taking out loans when I've been in school since September of 2021 and have 2 more years. Also this school doesn't cater to single parents, limited income and individuals that HAVE to work. This school ONLY has day classes for the nursing program and as I said before I HAVE to work full time.Sherria Clark

This morning I called the university for the North Orlando Campus for the Nursing program and spoke to the director of Nursing who was discusstingly rude on the phone. I called to get information, He had no patience and told me Not to proceed a career in Nursing because it was Not for me. This was a university that I was so excited to be a part of and be a graduate of Nursing. The director needs to be Fired because he is giving the university a bad reputation. To whom it may concern please take this review into consideration and hire a new director of Nursing for the program.Georgia Conde

My husband was on the nursing wait list for ten years. He is a veteran and a hard worker. He was told the RN wait list was 2-3 years by Sue Helmer. The professors goals are to make students repeat classes for monetary gain. This is what happened to my husband and several of his classmates. Failure is encouraged at this school. Students teach themshelves. My husband have retaken most of his classes because some of his teachers could not find proof of his final grades. Also the office lost his important paper work. He was marked down for failing the classes, and had to retake them over. Cora Beute, and Michelle Richter refused to look into their system, and marked him absent for classes when he was present. The financial aid department charged him twice for many of his classes.The administration took advantage of him having auto pay for classes. He was overcharged several of times. One thing after the next. My husband is now attending Grand Valley University. He had to retake more than seven classes over because some of GRCC classes are not transferable. A bunch of time wasted. My husband regret going to GRCC. I will recommend anyone to run from this scum of a place.护士Diane

Admission staff isn't very helpful. I'm being told on the FAFSA and by others if you live alone you do not have to fill out the parent information field just to call up here and have them tell me that's not the case. I'm in my twenties with my own place. Not seventeen just getting out of HS. I graduated five years ago so why do I need parent info? This is the latest addition though to a list of complaints. Just finally annoyed enough to leave a review. I've been considering for the last few years going to school and I have not committed yet due to personal circumstances. But every time I do seriously set my sights on it I find myself frustrated with the people I end up speaking with. Only giving two stars because I'm hopeful that my experience with the education side of things will be a lot better than all the tedious steps you have to do just get in and get assistance.A. N Marshall

My short experience has been good here. Although parking can be a mess, and often times people's card will not allow them to leave (it lets them in though) and the person on the telecom won't let them out, they want them to back up (when there's 20 cars bumper to bumper in line waiting to leave) and come inside. Or they can pay 4x the regular amount via credit card and then they'll be able to leave right then and there. Unnecessary hassle, a joke considering they're getting thousands of dollars every DAY simply from parking fees alone. Should attend common sensical decency meeting once a year.Patrcia Clemons

When I was looking into going to Ross I was a little apprehensive because I wasn't sure if this program was really any good. From the minute I walked in the door all my apprehension was gone!! The admissions staff made me feel right at home and walked me through the process step by step and answered all my questions. The financial aid staff was wonderful and answered all my questions about my financial aid and got it processed quickly. The school director was absolutely the best!! She takes time to actually sit you down and find out how you are doing in your courses and she is available to fix any problems you may have. The instructors are very friendly and knowledgeable about the subjects they are teaching you and are also available to answer any questions and offer whatever help you may need. Career services literally will not stop looking for employment for you until you have a job in your field. The best decision I ever made was going to Ross and it has literally changed my life forever!!Carol Riddle

Honestly so disappointed. A complete lack of communication from day one. Today should be my graduation date, and I can't even get an email response about anything. The education I received was so far off track from what I was told I would receive (Billing and Coding) and I think I might be qualified to answer phones and make minimum wage now that I am done. I get plenty of communication about sharing on social media but cannot even get a response about what I am to do next now that my qualifications for completion are met. Not even something stating I am done. I completed my externship then nothing. Like I dropped off their map.Betsie Reed

Updates needed for the sake of the teachers and students as far as efficacy goes. Machinery such as autoclaves and centrifuge could stand to be updated as well. All staff and personnel at Ross is absolutely wonderful and I have and will continue to sing this school's praises. I can't believe how quickly time flies when you're having fun learning and meeting others with the same goals. All teachers were extremely personable and helpful. I will miss my Ross family when I go, but I am so proud of myself and feel so accomplished for exceeding my own expectations here.Renae Cunningham

For the best experience, you must be proactive and you must advocate your goals and you must explore where you want to go. Tuition is reasonable and scholarships can be abundant. The ideal setup, depending on one’s circumstances, is to start here and use Lansing Community College to get to the next destination, whether it is a sought employer or university. I strongly recommend networking and using all available resources to find and develop a constructive resonance with potential instructors. Don’t hesitate to ask questions. There are countless people and support services ready to help people of all backgrounds and needs. Be advised and cautioned that the summer semester can be a bit more challenging due to its condensed schedule and that online classes tend to have some trade-offs that need to be carefully considered. There have been many notable infrastructure investments and student life improvements for activities and events. Of course, parking can be a bit of a trick sometimes, but carpooling or finding alternative nearby locations can reduce expenses. Make sure to apply for FAFSA as soon as possible for prime planning. By going here first and developing a strong core foundation, one can also save a lot of money rather than paying higher prices for comparable education elsewhere. Also, Lansing Community College develops strategic partnerships with many higher learning institutions and even hosts the joint University Center at the downtown location. But don’t forget to have fun and forge memories with your community while you endeavor your STAR journey.Ryan Guiles

I went to the Livingston campus right out of high school. I had great professors and loved my classes for the first few semesters, then everything started to fall apart. The front desk staff was rude, they weren’t consistent with their information and I almost lost my financial aid because they gave me the wrong information. Then a semester or two before I left, I took an online business class that was so all over the place I had to call the professors office and tell her that the due dates were off on the schedule, and then she argued with me without even looking at the schedule. Once she did she realized the dates were wrong and she changed them. But she must have been bothered by my call because I aced every assignment in that class and ended it with a 4.0, but she must’ve docked that after final grades went out because on my transcript I noticed it said that I ended with a 3.5, which I know wasn’t true. Now I have no proof and can’t change it didn’t because I didn’t notice it until after the semester was over. Very aggravating.Kaitlyn

Some of the teachers at Lansing community college are awesome! However, I am not impressed with the community college as a whole. One of the reasons being I feel their classes require you jump through a lot of more hoops that I have encountered while attending any university. For example, they require a lot of placement tests, which I did not encounter while attending Ferris State University. Also the graduation rate is very low!alexis timmons

I ended up backing out of the enrollment process. After sending my transcripts and FAFSA info. I asked what would be the cost for the classes. I could not get a straight answer from anyone. " We won't know until you are accepted … and enrollenrolled. And to be accepted you must complete the student loan applications process." I made it clear from Day 1 I was not taking out student loans. And wanted to pay out of pocket…. So they could have saved me a bunch of time by saying we won't accept you without loans. And I would have walked away. Even on my final email I sent to them say I was no longer interested because I found a local University that was cheaper and way more helpful the reply I got back was…. " well if you are still against taking out loans….hope that school is a better fit for you..".Jaime Seda

This school lacks communication so bad I do not recommend this School to anybody if you would further have questions later on down the road you’re better off joining another school. It’s all nothing but stress since I began the school. And they don’t make situations any easier. Also the professors are mean as hell! They don’t teach you anything. They write out what you’re supposed to do every week and grade and give feedback. That’s it! You have to literally teach yourself with research articles and your text book. And when you do receive feedback from them on an assignment, and you had some errors, instead of teaching us our wrong doings they decide to give you zeros and be rude when leaving feedback. I can’t wait to graduate because this school is nothing but BS!H D

Bellevue University is an outstanding educational experience with top notch staff and professors. I graduated in 2005 and the education I received at Bellevue impacted my career in a positive manner. I have since returned to work on my Masters. The curriculum is up-to-date and reflective of the real world. Rewards in life come with hard work and dedication. I read the comments made and was surprised by the negative ones. However, I served my country for 30 years to protect the rights of folks to practice free speech. In exercising that right, I would like to say well done Bellevue University, you are making a positive impact on professional and personal goals of thousands. James S.James S

Coming into this campus was very welcoming and helpful and they only wanted to see only what was the best for there students. the teachers/staff are very passionate on what they do/teach at there school and push you to keep going, it is an accelerated class and very hands on which gives you the best experience provided to get you ready for your career. I am happy I could be apart of the ross family and recommend anyone to make the next step and start there career.Michaela Cole

Great and supportive staff across the board. I like the small class size so you can actually speak with your instructor and get hands on help to learn the material. Some of the assignments through RossEdge were more focused on personal growth than the basics of the program I came in to learn about which I found frustrating on occasion. Also the SimChart assignments can be highly repetitive. Overall it was a great experience though.Travis Haines

I had an a amazing experience here at Ross. I was taught and prepared in the right way for me to go out into the medical field. Every staff member here cares about their students and wants them to succeed in life and to me that was the best thing to experience for someone who struggled in school. I cannot say enough about this place super blessed to have chose Ross as my medical school!Taylor Bilkovsky

Dr.George was the best instructor ive ever had LET ME TELL YOU! i have never enjoyed school and never made above a B plus but after taking my first module with him i past all my first 3 classes with a perfect score of 100. His teaching style is amazing, he makes you feel like youre not alone, and he loves when u ask questions so if you're like me and hate asking questions he makes it so much easier its awesome. I really hope i run into you again one day because you were the absolute BEST instructor a student could ask for. Love You! -Hailey <3Hailey Wilke

My career service advisor was great! Ms. Alexandria Vela helped me tremendously on my job search. She was one of the people from the campus who have always been very helpful. She has always been very attentive with me and always checked in, during and after my externship, and now that I'm hired she has continued to check in. She helped me apply for jobs and even walk me through interview questions. Eventually I did get hired and I cant thank her enough!estefania castillo

May I express, I was worried about joining this institution, I hadn’t been in school for a while but when I first visited everybody made me feel so welcome with a constant smile on their face, I felt encouraged and wanting to be in class. Dr. Navarro is very knowledgeable and she sure makes sure we’re updated with our work. I really recommend for you to visit CHCP institution, don’t just take my word for what I just experienced.Browneyes

I have had wax’s regularly for awhile now and recently relocated to the GR area, trying the European Wax center was a new experience for me. This experience was excellent and it was due to the diligent and great work of their new waxer and esthetician Alexia! Beginning with having great conversations and really feeling Alexias interest in waxing and beauty, to her confident hand with waxing. Alexia has a special touch that made my eyebrows look better then ever, and my under arms the smoothest they have been in my waxing experience! I would highly recommended her services, and will be visiting with Alexia again! Services:   Eyebrow waxing ,  Waxing ,  Underarm hair removalHunter Paterson

Love love love it here! I’ve had some *ROUGH* experiences with waxing at different shops and this made up for all of it. I went from having very long, excruciating sessions at other places to quick and easy ones here. It’s hard to get back on the horse when you’ve had so many bad experiences but I couldn’t be more grateful to the women at EWC for making me feel comfortable and safe when in such a vulnerable state (lol). I see Erica there and she is amazing. But all the employees are so kind and welcoming! 10/10 would recommend. Service:   Waxingbella patterson

This was my first time at European Wax Center so I just let them place me with a waxer. I got Angelina and I will always be going here to get waxed now. Everyone wa so friendly and Angelina really did such a good job and made sure I was walking out happy with the results. The whole experience was just great and different from any other places I'd been for a wax. Definitely will be recommending to friends and going back in 4-6 weeks. Service:   Brazilian waxingAmanda

I cannot recommend PES enough. They have a very welcoming and friendly staff that ensures you are getting thorough training. The lab is very hands on to be able to prepare you for direct patient care. The clinical experience allows you to translate your education into hands-on use, and the instructors are always great with questions and techniques. Cannot wait to use the lessons they provided me in the future.Dylan Stankewicz

I recently re-certified my CNA certification through PES's 2 week Nurse Aide Training program. I highly recommend this program to anyone who wants high quality nurse aide training, in an accelerated, yet thorough curriculum. Very high quality education, taught by friendly and experienced medical professionals. Great clinical experience and hands on training.Nicole Pollina

This experience has been amazing!! Dr. K is absolutely amazing at what she does and is a great teacher to her students. Her business has it all including medical equipment, mannequins to work on, and books. I just graduated from the course and it was great. I cant recommend taking this nursing aid course enough!abby iscaro

I would not recommend this school. There wasn’t any heat in our classrooms the entire winter. Students had to bring their own heaters and we only could plug up 2 with out blowing out the circuit. (They also have a heating and cooling program ) There still isn’t any soap in the cafeteria. Some one put water in an old soap dispenser, and over 100 students share that. The ST (Surgical technician) instructor is rude and unprofessional. I have documents, videos and dates of her yelling at me, cursing, threatening me and no one did anything to her. Actually, when I tried to report her, it actually got worse. I’m not the only one from this school…. or other schools who said the same exact thing. The man from financial aide will call, email and text you several times a day when you have to make a payment. The reviews are fake/ from employees themselves. Take your time and actually research the program before you apply to this overpriced school.Artie Alexis

Abcott Institute is a great place to help you with a career in the medical field. Abcott also have other areas to advance your career. The instructors are Helpful and encouraging. The Surgical Tech. Program with Mrs.Miller is great, she a firm and knowledgeable instructor. Working in the medical field especially the OR is no game, you are dealing with people lives!! The course is tough, at one point I wasn't so sure if I could finish. I talk to my instructor, made sure I studied more and did what I had to do to improve myself. Mrs.Miller firm but she care for her students and supports them wholeheartedly, you just have to do your part as well. This is not something everyone could do you have to be dedicated!!!Michiko Unu

Just focus and get what you need to get out of there. It’s a lot of foolery going in this school program not accredited and make sure when you pay for you certification test and pass get your money back because they will not mention it if you don’t and it’s included in your tuition. Just focus and get what you need don’t make close bonds with the teachers they gossip and tell other classmates business…I know things I shouldn’t know.. I took the surgical tech program…the instructor is very knowledgeable about scrubbing I will say that she knows her stuff but I wouldn’t recommend this school a community college is better it may take longer thoughEbinique Stephens

I had a great experience in the weekend classes. There were only 4 sessions which makes the class fast pace however, it is definitely attainable if you are following along with the book during class and outside of class. The hands on practice was very helpful and my classmates were very understanding and helpful. My instructor (Leticia) was hands on and wasn't afraid to let you know what your mistakes were and what you need to work on. She will also push you to strive and achieve your goal. Most importantly she ensures saftey and is understanding. She may come off as strict or mean but has good intentions for you to safely and correctly know how to draw blood. I definitely recommend taking this course if you want to further your knowledge or if you're trying to step foot into the medical field.Nana Ruiz

Nicole is an awesome instructor! She’s really detailed and breaks the lesson down. She’s able to teach everyone especially those with different learning abilities while keeping the class on track. She’s very patient and doesn’t get irritated when someone doesn’t understand something. I’m recommend you choose her as an instructor!Jordan Ross

This course was amazing !!! Nichole is one of the best instructors, have come in contact with .She made sure that everyone understood the material. She is just beyond awesome this class has helped me in so many ways and also ,each week I looked forward to coming. Her stellar personality made things easier to learn!!!!Kasanti Townsend

I really enjoyed attending MHA for my CNA course! I learned a lot of skills that prepared me for my hands on clinical that we attended this week- and I feel prepared for when I am officially a licensed CNA (tomorrow is our last day of the course & of clinicals). Note to future MHA CNA students, Don't be shy! Engage in the skills with your classmates. Guarantee you will meet a new friend, and have a skill/clinical buddy with- and you'd wish you met them sooner🙂 Also, the owner Angela brings her cute doggo who is super friendly & so harmless, loves food and will sniff your bag all day if there is food in it 🤣 if your uncomfortable with it, tell him "out" he will leave the bag alone. I enjoyed spending half of my month of June here! Morgan Howard

I am so beyond thankful to MHA and my instructor, Caryn, for help in getting my career going and obtaining information about sterile processing. Caryn did the best job at explaining everything by the book, as well as applying her own experience in an effort to ease and clarify the learning of so much information. Most definitely a 10/10 experience and I’d recommend it to anyone looking to start their path to this career.Hannah Walker

If you are looking for a school for sterile processing, this is the school for you. They were very helpful getting you set up for class. Caryn the instructor was the absolute best. She works in the field she teaches in and has a lot of knowledge and insight. She made me feel very confidence and was very encouraging. This was by far the best decision I’ve made!!! The weeks flew by.Heather Casillas

I wasn’t sure what to think about Rasmussen because I’ve heard mixed reviews from my coworkers. I was pleasantly surprised to find out this is the college to go to school if you’re a parent wanting to be a nurse. I am married and have three kids under 8 years old and I work in the hospital full time, and I’m succeeding. From my fellow coworkers, I KNOW this is the fastest program to get your nursing degree. I love my professors. I absolutely love the diversity of my professors and fellow students. I know that some have complained about the professors intelligence level. My professors are all very educated. Sometimes if English isn’t the first language, anybody would speak a little slower. This gives you an education you wouldn’t get anywhere else because you’re learning from people who are different than you but usually more intelligent as they had to work harder to get their degree because English was not their first language! Or at least equally as intelligent. People also on occasion complain about the price. I have done the math and at the speed I’m completing my degree, I will have saved more because I’ll have the degree at least a year prior to my fellow coworkers going to more affordable schools I also had Sara Packard as my advisor and she was phenomenal. She almost always replied back to my emails within an hour, and I asked A LOT of questions. Without Sara, I would have never been able to start up as quickly as possible without her quick start worksheet list of things I needed to complete. Thank you so much Rasmussen!Amber Broring

This is my second week at Rasmussen. It is challenging, but no school is easy. So far, the best thing I have encountered at this school is the support that the school incorporates together to help the students. My admission went well because I got a lot of help from my admission advisor, Brittany. She kept me alert and on track throughout the entire process. I strongly agree to listen to her advice if you plan to get your admission process completed on time. Another thing I'm pleased to have is Personal Support Center. Just like Brittany and the admission process, I got all my technical issues solved through Personal Support. Both of these two parties are well-hired for the job. You will like the support team here if you go to this school. Supports and admission definitely earn 5 stars.k yang

DO. NOT. GO. HERE. If I could give this school zero stars I would. The nursing administration and program is a joke. All they care about is swindling you out of money. They intentionally kept me from being able to retake an exam so I would have to retake a course again. Visit the BBB website and read for your self, the aren’t accredited by the BBB and they literally have a 1.19 rating out of 5 and after reading the filed complaints from other previous students it’s easy to see why. There are multiple classes that 40% of your grade is dependent on ATI exams, not the course content, so you can literally pass the class portion but still fail the course due to ATI. It’s a joke.Jaime H

For 15 years we brought our dog to Schmitt's. We came first just before Christmas with a small 6 week old puppy we'd just adopted from a shelter. She had a bad kennel cough and wasn't eating or drinking. They discovered she was also full of parasites. Dr. Jones was very kind, took Nuala, and said they would need to keep her for a couple of days in isolation because of the kennel cough and would treat that and the parasites, but she gently explained that she was already malnourished and may not survive. But she did survive and came home on Christmas Eve (we weren't sure how we would break bad news to our young kids). Since that first visit Schmitt's has always been kind and thorough. Three years ago just before another Christmas they discovered a cancerous tumor on her neck. Their surgery saved her again. But alas, this week was Nuala's last appointment. Dr. Jones provided Nuala's final pain-relieving service, and she could not have been more kind. Thank you to all the wonderful and loving people at Schmitt's who helped care for Nuala and made it possible for all of us to enjoy her for these 15 years.Jim Bell

Brought our dog in because he was not feeling well. The care, professionalism, and transparency were exceptional throughout the entire process. Communication was consistent, clear, and all of our questions were answered. The doctors, especially Dr. Timmer and Dr. Jones were informative and generous with their time. It was clear they cared about our dog and the care they provided was greatly appreciated. We were consistently updated with projected costs as well which we appreciated. After a few days overnight and a surgery, we were able to bring home a happy and healthy dog. Thank you to all of the doctors and techs at Schmitts. We are so grateful and cannot recommend highly enough.James Rex

Update – Went again today with my Eddie who has been terrified of getting his nails clipped. Over time staff have worked with him. He is taking half the sedation he was and we were able to get his nails done with the help of Vet Tech Sara R. who is amazingly fast cutting dog nails and Kait who helped hold my scared puppy. Thanks for answering all my dog travels questions too, Sara! I love Schmitt's Animal Hospital. Your staff have consistently been helpful, thorough, patient and kind with our Eddie and myself. I can't think of another thing you could do to make things any better.J F

As a member we found the experience ok; Shoppers were always rude and inconsiderate with their oversized carts and privileged outlook on life. The prices were often not any better than any other store for the food items we typically bought, and things felt like knockoffs from China. So I saved my $60 per year to spend elsewhere. But the experience I had when trying to return contaminated peanut butter will prevent me from ever becoming a member again: the less than helpful employee "We can't accept returns if you are not a member"… I explained Costco sent an email asking me to return it. "I'm sorry there's nothing I can do"… Awkward silence for a few seconds… I asked is there anyone else that can help with your computer? *Sigh* "Let me go see"… Eventually someone knew how to do it, but then warned me that they can't do that again in the future… Don't worry! I won't be back!Matt Fisher

Costco is truly one of the best run businesses in the USA. You can tell how well (or poorly) an employer treats its employees by the way that you are treated by those workers. I have shopped there a couple times a month for several years and every employee whom I've spoken to has been helpful! Most seemed quite happy. Costco's prices are fabulous. Today I bought a can of Starbucks Hot Cocao…getting ready for another Midwest winter. It was under $11 and the same product was $25 or 2 for $40 on Amazon. Amazon is generally very hard to beat. Their return policy is second only to luxury retailers. No, I don't and never have worked there. They just do not disappoint. I've had the same experience at the Davenport, Iowa store. Check it out for yourself.S S

They have pretty decent produce and the best olives I've ever had in my life. The employees are pretty hard to find but are always knowledgeable to get whatever you need. With all Costco's, make sure you bring a Visa card, debit card, or check to pay. You can run your total up pretty high with a full cart, I've dropped over $400 in one trip before. Their parking lot is not great like all Costco's and you usually have to park far away from the building but at least the gas station line is not terrible.Mackie D

OMG be careful ‼️I went to this store yesterday and it was in the morning around 7:45 – 8:00am I was paying in lane 13 and as I was typing my number in on the key pad a huge ROACH CRAWLED FROM UNDER WHERE THE KEYPAD WAS BOLTED. I screamed and jumped back naturally. I took all of my items out of the bag to make sure no roaches were in there because I didn't want to bring any home or in my car. So I called the store manager let her know all she did was apologize. No gift card in case I wanted to return those items that were inches from the roach soni could feel safe at a different Meijer. Bad business! Meijer on 28th and Kalamazoo has clear as water

I went into this store today and some 20 something year old cart pusher made me cry when I asked to use an amigo. After she looked me up and down twice, she still didn't want to let me use it instead she was gonna put away…. This is just a nice reminder that not all physical disabilities are obvious. But also that nobody should have to prove their physical limitations to minimum wage children at Meijer.Jessica Sower

This is the flagship Meijer location at Knapp Corners. A few things other locations might not have, but all in all the same thing you'd find at other Meijer stores. My major complaint is not so much the business, but the people who cut straight across the parking lot at 30mph with no regard for where they're going. In what I'm sure is a coincidence, most occurances of this involve Teslas or luxury SUVs.Philip R
