"So neat to see what healthcare and a hospital was like a so long ago… even more cool to find out that my grandma and great grandma were born in this hospital!"
"A great stop on the way to or from the beach! Interesting tools and oddities from local history, we loved it!"
"Such an awesome place. Definitely one of a kind. Medical devices from all over and the first hospital in Foley."
"I must see when passing through Foley, Alabama! It has one of the best representative collection of medical equipment of days past that I've ever seen. It is a lot larger then one would expect. Has interesting items at every turn with good visibility and explanation. The docent was extremely knowledgeable about the museum and the area. Adding to this he was very friendly and enjoyed a good conversation!"
