r/Birmingham

as title suggests, looking for a dentist in the BHM area that is conscious and accommodating for someone with pretty severe medical anxiety, especially around dentistry. unfortunately i think i (30) finally need to have my wisdom teeth removed after being told in my teens and again in 20s that it most likely wasn’t necessary. in the process of figuring that out, would love to find a dentist office that is sensitive to and accommodating to person with medical anxiety. (**i know ill most likely need an oral surgeon who specializes in wisdom teeth removal, but wondering specifically about a dentist for now.**) thank you!

Your name is Emily. You look like you were painted. We got along very well, I told your friend she needs to take personal responsibility. (:

For anyone living in highland park, does this area attract a lot of weirdos? Is this due to being so close to down town?

I’ve had odd encounters with people around here. Thought I’d ask if anyone else has experienced this.

Ok bham, I'm gonna be a grandmother! Recommendations on OB and what hospital is great or bad for birthing experiences. My daughter lives in Ragland so obviously will be delivering in the ham. She is not picky on male or female Dr, just wants to know where the best drs and hospital is for this occasion.

She does work in the 280 area, but OB doesn't have to be that area necessarily

A couple days again there was some heavy lightning and ever since Spectrum has been reporting an outage in my area with no estimated fix time. This is in the irondale/Crestwood area.

Where can I find thick cut bacon with the rind still on?

Hi all 👋. New to the area. I’m a runner and I‘m looking for a place to do speed work. Are there any running tracks here that are open to the public?

I live near Waldrop stadium and was thinking maybe I could train there before scoping it out in person. However the barbed wire fences and signage make it pretty clear it’s closed to the public.

Anything cool going on tonight? I know it’s the day after FOJ so might be the most dead night in the city, but just wondering if there’s any sneaky cool things happening. Thanks!

I wanna find some cool houses this year my kid has been obsessed with Halloween decorations lately (idk kids are weird)

Just moved here a few months ago and I want to tap into the art scene.

Is there an “art night” or any galleries or shops that have open house type events? I’m from Tuscaloosa and I used to do the First Fridays downtown and I loved it.

I’m trying to save money right now, so all I do is go to work and go home and it’s bumming me out.

I work 11-8 most days (worst schedule ever) so are there any shows, pop-ups, or art markets that I could go to either before or after work? Obviously I can do stuff on my off days but I need a better idea of where to go.

I plan to hit up the art museum on my next off day, and the botanical garden sometime soon.

It seems that in uptown. Those dopey idiots with the loud motors like to meet up. At 2AM. In a well populated area. This is Alabama. There are literally hundreds of empty spaces that you could go to. Are you looking to have someone hang out a window and appreciate your tiny members? Instead you waste the neighbors time and the police have to follow you around all night and for what? So the car you spent money to have your muffler sliced off on can be appreciated by two rednecks who don’t know what an actual well tuned vehicle sounds like? I may be being a bit much but I’m actually trying to understand what level of stupidity it takes to keep on doing this week after week

My husband needs rehab for alcohol/hydrocodone. We are Christians and would prefer something that has a biblical lens, but we know that may not be possible. Two questions: What are some good outpatient programs in Birmingham (He needs inpatient, but outpatient is what he’s willing to do at this point)? He is without a job, so has anyone navigated getting insurance through the marketplace? Thanks in advance.

Uhhhh hey guys just checking, anything with fireworks going on tonight ?

Are there any good MX game watch parties for England that aren’t at Salud? The place is awesome but it is so small and last time was so packed just seeing if there’s anywhere that has more space? Either way viva Mexico vamos !🇲🇽🔥

Come to the game stay for the fireworks!

Hey y’all. I’m looking for some good spots to watch the fireworks show. I live in Five Points South across from Highlands United Methodist Church. There’s a parking deck nearby behind Hotel Indigo and next to Tower on Tenth. Do y’all think I’ll be able to see the fireworks from the top of that parking deck? Let me know. I really don’t feel like driving somewhere. That place is within walking distance from me.
