Kirkwood by the River in Birmingham, AL
5.0

My parents moved into Kirkwood by the River 9 years ago and I've NEVER had a complaint about anything. This is the best run and kindest retirement place anyone could ever find. The entire staff are kind, thoughtful, patient and courteous. A wonderful place in a great setting with Christian beliefs and attitude!!

Fair Haven Retirement Community in Birmingham, AL

There have been some issues with the billing but I'm having a meeting with them this week to get that resolved. Based on our experience I would recommend them.

Proveer at Grayson Valley in Birmingham, AL
4.1

The facility is pretty nice, I think some things could be upgraded. But mom is very pleased. The staff is very friendly and quick to address any issues we have. They do housekeeping often and her room is very clean. The food is good, mom is happy with it. Communication with the family is very good. They do have transportation for appointments and dining, which is great. I would recommend them to friends and family.
