Vanderbilt University Medical Center

Thank you to the wonderful physicians, surgeons, nurses, staff, and many others who made our experience at the Vanderbilt Transplant Center so positive. My mother received a kidney transplant at Vanderbilt Transplant & Surgical Care in January 2026, and from the very beginning, we knew she was in excellent hands. The medical team was patient, thorough, and incredibly kind throughout the entire process. My mother, who is almost 70, had a smooth transplant experience and received truly exceptional care. The nursing care was so sincere, as well as the overall care on the transplant unit. Her husband, daughters, sisters, brother, loved ones, and friends, near and far, cannot thank you enough. Thank you to Dr. Dageforde and the entire team for your incredible work. Thank you, Vanderbilt!

I'm so happy I was transferred here to this wonderful hospital every one here has been amazing. The staff here has been taking great care of me from the Nurses in the emergency department to the hand surgeons to the wonderful nurses in the burn unit. My nurses Leah, Leah, Sophia and Breanna they have been exceptional in making sure my wound is clean and my pain is minimal and that my needs are met. I would also like to add the wonderful care partners that help take care of me Sarah and Kiera. They are very caring and kind. Thank you so much Ladies from the bottom of my heart for the wonderful treatment and kindness you have giving me during my stay. Today is my last day here 01/23/26. You all made me very comfortable during my stay and I appreciate all of your hard work and devotion. Please know I will keep you all in my prayers and my heart.

My dad was sent here from our local hospital to monitor his brain bleed. Unfortunately he developed a subdural hematoma, that had to be evacuated via a crani. The team responded fast and performed the surgery. The 8th floor critical care trauma team did a excellent job. We had nothing short of amazing nurses, aides and doctors; however, my dad was not able to recover. When it was time to place my dad on comfort care, the team was there every step of they way. Not only did they make things easier on my dad, they did us as well. I will always be grateful for the teams knowledge, compassion and empathy!

Took my husband to the Vanderbilt Medical Center for a second opinion and everyone was wonderful with caring for him! It was about a three hour drive because we live in Knoxville TN but it was definitely worth the trip. I totally recommend Vanderbilt for any type of care you may need. The place is very nice and clean with amazing staff! Call them for an appointment today! 😊

I work in outpatient addiction in MD. One of our patients was out-of-town in the area on work. Due to unforeseen circumstances, they were stranded without their medication for a few days. After circling back to check in on the patient to make sure they were ok, they reported that the hospital had welcomed them in with no judgement, and efficiently gotten them the life-saving medication that they needed. Thank you, Vanderbilt, for helping and saving a life today!
