St Vincent's 119

The scheduling check in desk can be hit and miss however everyone is very nice and helpful. The same is true for the call in number, some people are more knowledgable than others and sometimes you can get misleading information. The radiologists if fantastic and if you have questions about imaging, ask to him call you directly. He has been so helpful on many occasions. Brad in rehab is one of the best in Birmingham. He is pushy in the best of ways. Cardiac rehab at the gym is also hit and miss. Some of the younger, less experienced therapists do nothing. My mom went there for a year and the young woman helping her did nothing to expand her range of motion, improve balance or flexibility or endurance - the whole point of going to rehab. We finally got a new therapist after getting Brad's help and the quality of care improved tremendously. Basically, if you aren't getting the care you need or want for yourself or your loved ones, push harder and the staff at 119 will respond. My mom has also used the senior water exercising program and loved it but hated being cold AFTER the work out. We're working on that one. All in all, 119 is a wonderful facility full of very nice and helpful people who listen. Compared to others I should give them higher ratings but I feel like there is room for improvement.

Clean and quiet. Lots of classes and good equipment.

They are excellent.

They're the best. They have all different kinds of classes. Old and young people can use it. It's really nice. Their friendliness stood out. The cost is reasonable. Their customer service is excellent.

I have been a member at St. Vincent's 119 fitness center for a year. During that time I have lost 40 pounds and dramatically improved my health. The facility is spotless clean with every type of equipment you would expect. In a top notch gym and then some. With indoor and outdoor running tracks, treadmills, elliptical machines,stair climbers, free weights, a full array of resistance machines, a lap pool, a therapy pool, sizable hot tub, a basketball gym and a full spa among other amenities the fitness center has more to offer than anyone could ask for. The gym is un crowded and easy to work through. For those interested in personal training the trainers are all well qualified and motivated to help you meet your fitness goals. There are fitness classes of all types with multiple time options for each one and the fitness center staff are always friendly and helpful. I haven't been a heavy spa user but the massage services here are excellent and have helped correct the effects of a few years of neglect before joining here. I have been in a number of gyms through the years and this one sets the standard for excellence.

The price is reasonable compared to some other places. The facilities are very good and well maintained. They got a good staff on hand and they don't try to sell you a bunch of stuff on the side. You can get as involved with it as you want to. If you just want to walk on the track, that's fine. If you want want to work with the machine, you can get somebody to help you and show you how to do it. It's user friendly, I'll put it that way.

I was looking for a healthy way to relax. It was excellent. They were very professional and clean. They were very good about privacy and quietness. It was very relaxing.

The experience was amazing. I've received several massages from other places, but none as good as this. The therapist was one of the best I've had, polite and professional. But it's really the setting and atmosphere that set 119 apart. You're greeted and led back to a waiting room with ambient light and music--also a wonderful fragrance. And the massage room is even better; private, relaxing, and intimate. Every part of my experience was wonderful. My only problem is that I haven't gotten a chance to get another one! If nothing has changed, it makes the best present $180 can buy.

I like their environment the most. I would use them again in the future.

It's a relaxing, caring environment. They know their work very well. I'm satisfied with them.

I would highly recommend this fitness center

I have not been going there for a couple of months because now I have my own swimming pool which is what I like to do there. They have a beautiful pool, and beautiful hot tubs inside. They are reasonably priced. I just use the facilities there. I don't use any trainers. It is a very upscale facility. I will continue to use this facility in the future.
