Review of Anchorage, Alaska


A+ Health Care in Anchorage
Star Rating - 3/21/2008
Coming from Houston, Texas to Anchorage we were completely wowed by the quality of health-care we found here. My mom is a nurse in Houston and my husband and mother-in-law (who also lives in Anchorage) both have a few minor chronic conditions, so I think I have a better than average insight. In Anchorage, you receive much more personal time with your doctor, and that goes for your General Practitioner AND and specialist you may see. You are not just another one of the millions of nameless people traveling to Houston each day for health care. I've heard that we have a shortage of medical personnel in Alaska, but you (at least those with adequate insurance - I can't speak for those that rely on free clinics, etc) would never know it based solely on the quality of care.
