UF Health Rehab Hospital, Gainesville FL

Shands Hospital Gainesville rehabilitation is the best, if you ever get sick, need a primary or a special come to Gator land you won't be disappointed

They’ve treated my mom really well and have helped her get better from where she was. The nurses are professionals & take time with the patients. PT, OT, & speech therapy staff have been really good with my mom. I don’t know how much they are all paid, but it’s not enough! The PT area is great all the equipment is updated and relatable to what the patients need to work on. I want to go here if I ever need to!

I had a great experience at UF Rehab. Everyone was professional, kind and wonderful caregivers. I would recommend UF Rehab to everyone who needed care. I was blessed that my physician recommended this facility

Everyone from the housekeeping staff to the doctors were fantastic. They are all so motivating and positive!

This is an amazing facility! The physical and occupational staff are professional, positive and energetic. Everyone on the nursing staff was so patient and kind. Even the food was good. You'll work hard but you'll reach your goals.

I had triple bypass heart surgery on 8/30/23. Going home today 9/13/23. The UFHealth Rehab Hospital and staff is amazing. It's the best facility I have been in. What ever your need at the time, the staff is there to help. I know without a doubt that I would not be going home today, if I had been placed someplace else. With therapy so soon, I was able to get back on my feet faster. I want to thank everyone for being there and helping me.
Thank you for your kindness to your patients.

The progress he’s made in just ten days is more than we could have imagined even 30 days from now. The intake team, the nursing staff, the dietary and kitchen staff, PT, OT even the environmental staff have been amazing. The management has done an excellent job in hiring compassionate, skilled and caring professionals!

After 2 months in hospital and transfers back and forth to nursing homes, I despaired of ever receiving the care I needed. This hospital and it’s wonderful caring staff proved to be a god send for me. From the housekeepers all the way up to the house supervisors, every single person was caring, compassionate, and encouraging. I do not have enough room to name everyone who cared for me with excellence and professionalism but I’m sure they know who they are. I could not give this rehab hospital any higher than 5 stars but I would if I could.

Sandra King, case manager supervisor, does not return phone calls. My mother was discharged (after 9 days) unable to walk, unable to get herself to the bathroom or stand up from the toilet by herself. She was doing all of this on August 15th when she was discharged from Advent Ocala. She came home on 130 mg. Of blood pressure meds (was admitted on 25 mg.) and her B. P.was 205/105 when I got her home. She was severely constipated, so much so that magnesium citrate didn't work. She had hemorrhoids that were huge and that was the pain that increased her blood pressure. She was so tired and dizzy from the ridiculous dose of blood pressure meds that she couldn't even sit up. Her lower back, L-1 which was cracked and the reason she went in for P. T.in the first place, was all swelled up when i picked her up on August 24th. She said P. T.hurt it doing bed exercises. I told Darren and Naomi at the time. It was not swelled up when she was admitted. Charge nurse Donna and Darren both were helpful and tried hard to help when there were issues, but for the life of me, I don't understand how people that choose this profession can perform with such ignorance and disconcern. The doctors do not return phone calls. Apparently this is a learned trait from their peers. Very disappointed in their apathy. I expected much more based on the amazing reviews. Pay attention people.

I'm very pleased with the staff. They are so helpful. I felt like I got better every treatment.

My dad had to be at the UF Rehabilitation Hospital twice, first for 3 weeks and now for 3 weeks also, I have stayed with him everyday and night and all the staff are amazing. Friendly, professionals, and the food is great. I will take the time to say that I would recommend anyone who has to do rehab to do it here. Physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy all are great. We will miss y'all but we gotta move on.

I would highly recommend this facility. Excellent staff and support staff, clean, and everyone is extremely efficient and friendly. Food is good too!

From the time I came in to the time I left, the care was just awesome. I was nervous at first but they treated me with such excellent service. They were patient and so caring. Every person I came in contact with was phenomenal! It was like I already knew them and they knew me. They seemed excited to have me and to care for me!

After spending over 5 months in a ICU, our daughter needed Physical Therapy Rehab with OT and speech Therapy. The UF Health Rehab facility was the perfect place for her to transition and prepare herself for getting back to her normal routine life at home. The Staff was truly outstanding as was the level of caring my daughter recieved! The facility and the food provided (numerous options) were also outstanding. The Therapists were also innovative in the way that they addressed the individual needs to obtain a desired outcome! As for the the facility itself, it was clean, modern, and well maintained! The end result has been a significant improvement in our daughters overall strength and health! We recommend UF Health Rehab to anyone as a pathway to return to normal life.

In the past couple months I've spent some time at several different inpatient facilities. This is the last stop before going home. It has been far superior to any others I have ever been to. None of the others did anything to get me mobile again. If it weren't for the amazing staff and management, I would still be bedbound and laying in a hospital bed somewhere. Thank you UF Rehab Hospital. I'd love to give a shout out to so many of the staff members, but every single person, no matter what level they were at all had smiles on their faces and a warm greeting.

I was admitted towards the end of March 2023 to Shands hospital Rehab. The staff here could not be nicer, nor more caring, and considerate. I have made so much progress with their help, and I am forever Grateful for that. I was unable to walk when I first was admitted and now I find myself walking with a walker On a side note, the food here is delicious and I would highly recommend anyone who needed inpatient rehab therapy to come Here. We come all the way from the Tampa bay area up to Shands, and it is completely worth the distance.

My father has been a inpatient at UF Rehab, I have nothing but great raves about this facility, everyone that he and the family have come in contact has been amazing, professional, and very caring.
