Report
This Area and hospital is a diamond in such a remote area. The medical staff is excellent. They listen to you and they actually care. The drs and nurses read your chart and listen to your needs. The cafeteria could use some upgrading. The day we were there there wasnt any hot food. So it was like snack time. They let me sleep in room with my husband without any problems. It is handicapped parking and handicapped accessible. I would highly recommend if you are in the Grafton ND area, don't hesitate to place your trust in the staff and hospital. Thank you unity Hospital for everything!

The staff was very polite upon entering the facilities. The wait wasn't long, the Dr. I had to see was awesome. Everything was a great experience for me since I live out of town during this great pandemic.
