  1. Wait time says 24 minutes it’s been 3 hours there are people here that can’t breathe they won’t take them back they just brought them oxygen and left we had a 8 year old that was receiving paralysis from autism medication side effects and they did nothing but say we’re full and waiting for rooms.

  2. If you need to go to the emergency room, you could drive to Wilmington hospital be seen, discharged, and on the way home before Kent hospital gives you a bandaid

  3. I’m still in awe of the egregious health violations that are happening on a daily basis at this so called health facility. I brought my wife here after she experienced multiple seizures along with swelling of the brain and they offered zero …

  4. Our labor and delivery nurses were TOP NOTCH! We had the best experience we possibly could have had because the nurses were so helpful and informative. I can only remember a few names so I would just like to mention Victoria from the fifth floor along with Chona and Bianca from the sixth floor. Thanks again ladies!

  5. I have been here for 7 hours I have had no sleep since the night before and I’m hungry. My friend and fiancé are of need of being looked at and it seems like everyone is still waiting in the waiting room for the emergency room all night …

  6. The only people who like this hospital, apparently with few exceptions, are women who had uncomplicated deliveries here. Overall bad staff attitudes, and Dr.’s who are on staff here are generally 2nd rate. ER has a nasty attitude, as people …

  7. Have been coming here my entire life. People need to understand they are at er not the ritz carlton tgete job is savd lives and sometimes someone else takes priority and your gonna wait. Ive witnessed very little of the incompetence people …

  8. This is a sorry excuse for an “emergency” room. They don’t give wait times and I was there for 3 hours with my one year old who had a 103 degree fever. We left and went to a walk in where we were seen promptly. When they bill me for their …

  9. Poor communication!!! Nasty Charge Nurse (Crystal ) I called to find out the status of my father who suffers from Parkinsons and dementia. After I was transfered to 3 people whom told me it’s not their job yo help me, I was connected …

  10. I delivered my babygirl here! The staff was amazing, caring, and alert! They made sure we didn’t need for anything before, during, and after labor. I will be back in the future.

  11. Well they are known in other hospitals as killer Kent if that tells you anything. If it’s something small I go here if not I drive an HR to Christiana.

  12. I’m new to the area so when started experiencing cheat pains it was the closet hospital. When I arrived I told the deak I was having chest pain they put in a wheelchair and just sat me the hallway along with 15 other people just hanging …

  13. I went in with a stomach ache and received a $1000.00 BILL. this doctor ran every test under the sun that she could and the answer I received was ” oh you must have had a virus”. This has to be the worst hospital on the eastern shore. Not …

  14. Hubby had chest pain and shortness, shortness of breath and high blood pressure. 3 hours sitting in waiting room to finally get a bed in ER. Never coming here again!

  15. Crazy…Loooong waits in emergency. I have taken my mom several times and each time an average wait time of 6 hrs. The president of the hospital needs to make some smart decisions and have a hospital that will serve the elderly and …

  16. Absolutely one of the worst Hospitals I have ever been to. I sprained my back getting ready for work, and the driver of the ambulance took me as it was a closer hospital. They took my information but never helped me. No medication to ease …

  17. Went in by ambulance 2 weeks ago and was seen immediately. Was a little frustrated cause my care was held up cause the radiologist didn’t seem to know how to use the arm to the camera. Apart from that it was a good visit.

  18. Almost all the staff is great but most of the doctors there are rude, belittle, lie, and treat everyone around them like they are 2nd rate avoid KILLER KENT

  19. I’ve been to Camden , and Lourdes hospitals in NJ and I can say this place is a palace. Great size room for icu , friendly staff and good food. Thank you for the hard work on my ma

  20. Today, June 05th, I went to the Kent ER on South State Street. I was sent over by my PCP for dehydration and treatment for salmonella contracted from undercooked chicken. I arrived at 10:30 am and was not addressed until 3:30 pm when I …

  21. Terrible experience I am from New Jersey and the wait there is never more than an hour. Moved to Delaware never seen a more disorganized emergency room! Waited 8 hours and still never got admitted so I just left. completely disgusted.

  22. I went to this hospital with stomach pains and vomiting, they had me wait for 10 hours while I was back and forth to the bathroom to throw up, and no one came to take me to the back. A man who needed his forearm reset after an accident sat …

  23. Me and my Military husband just found out I was pregnant and I have a history of miscarriages and I wanted to make sure our baby was okay and I spent four hours there and no one came to check or call me back for my BABY so I ended up …

  24. Horrible, horrible, horrible experience! Would not recommend this hospital – ER to anyone. I would take my chances and ask the ambulance to reroute to another hospital.

  25. I grew up in Delaware, have not lived there in many years, but I had a medical condition arise while visiting family there and Kent General Hospital (Bay Health) was my only choice for care. This experience was like visiting Hooterville …

  26. I really dislike leaving negative comments about anything. However, this is a must.
    My infant was sent here by ambulance. She had stopped breathing for a brief …

  27. I was there for Emergency Services. The staff took good care of me when I arrived at the ER with breathing issues. I was admitted for 4 days. The staff was kind and courteous.

  28. Hands down, the worst aspect of living in Dover is that KGH is the only hospital option. I and my family have had to come here for multiple reasons, from radiology to ER, for almost 20 years, and I would be hard pressed to give you even …

  29. On October 23rd of 2017, I was admitted to Kent General on an emergency basis and spent the following 12 days in their care for a life threatening condition. Over the next 7 months, I went many times to this hospital for testing and …

  30. Worst hospital ever, I came in at 12:00 and it’s 4:56. I still haven’t seen a doctor and the excuse is there are other people that have severe attention other then myself. This hospital is very unprofessional, the amount of people in this …

  31. Instant mash potatoes for one thing.
    Service here is horrible. We have people in the ER for EMERGENCIES while the staff here stands around and talks and laughs. Wanted a pillow but that seemed to be very difficult in doing. If you want to live don’t come here.

  32. This is the worst hospital to go to. The ER is the WORST. They will tell you you’re next for hours but will call others that came in after u first. Even if u have insurance. I went twice, for myself and for my baby. I ended up leaving both …

  33. Worst hospital ever ! Told me the waiting time for the emergency room was 6-7 hours & after waiting for so many hours they take there time once your in the back as if your pain doesn’t matter, I do not recommend coming here for any emergency or even slight pain. Customer service is bad no one can never answer your questions!

  34. I have recently needed the services offered at Bayhealth/Lent General Hospital. I don’t understand why this hospital gets such a negative review. I am a former employee of a well known Philadelphia hospital and I have found the level of …

  35. My father was brought in by ambulance for possible broken hip we have been here for 3 hours, no pain meds, seen the nurse once, were informed they only keep one Dr on staff at this hour, I just had to dig a urinal out if a drawer so he …

  36. They were great to me! They showed me love,respect, tolerance n patience during my L&D..especially a nurse called Julie..gush she was the best🙏..Bayhealth anyday!🤗 …

  37. I can’t speak for the entire hospital, but the emergency room needs some extreme intervention. I came in with flu like symptoms, and usually I’d just wait it out, but I couldn’t keep down an ounce of water for 24+ hours. I got there, they …

  38. Worst experience ever. Current wait time says 30 minutes and we’ve been here for 6 hours. The majority of the staff here has no clue. No common courtesy for anyone. My mother in law came here writhing in pain, came in an ambulance and she’s …

  39. It’s always a long wait even after you have been attended I’ve been told by people that worked in there that when when someone is suspected to die they let them die if they’re organ donors or if they feel that person has no health insurance …

  40. I would like to say that my Wife Matilda Scott was brought their by her sister Teresa James on Christmas Eve as we entered we were well greeted by two Security Officers as well as the the two young ladies working at the emergency window in …

  41. Believe the reviews . I went to the ER last night for heart problems . They checked my vitals right away than about 10 minutes later they did x-rays Than literally had me waiting in the waiting room from 5 to 10:15 and I just left . Never …

  42. It’s a terrible emergency room. Sitting in here for 9 hours now. 5 of them just waiting for a hospital room so my wife can get out of the emergency room. It’s a shame that people waiting to get into the emergency room can’t because the …

  43. Absolutely listen to there 2.1 review! Stay clear of this hospital. Arrived at 6:30 p.m it is now 10:24 p.m. still have yet to be seen with my 5 year old daughter. If you are in an emergency please, please, please book your flight cross …

  44. I wish I could give zero stars but trust I will be calling hospital administration on Monday. The treatment was horrible I was not stabilized it was horrible I will also be looking to speak with a lawyer

  45. Very good Doctors. The nursing staff treated my mom very well everytime she was admitted. The actually found out what was wrong with my mom when 2 other hospitals didn’t.

  46. They are sending me home with no answersNo answers to why my body is numb and so week that I’m falling constantly week to the point of falling… the doctor just told me they I said no other hospital will accept me and provided me no …

  47. Last September (2018), we had a horrible thing happened to us, and ended up in the emergency room at this hospital. We lost something very precious to us. Our insurance covers emergency room visits to the hospital 100% with $25 co-pay. It …

  48. ER more like better hope you don’t need urgent care. There is no urgent care here. If you read my obituary next week this hospital killed me by not seeing me in over 5 hours. …

  49. I went one time, had decent care. Since them I have been billed for incidents that were not even mine! I’ve told them several times that it wasn’t me and I wasn’t even in the state – and they refuse to take the charge down. It’s affecting my credit.

  50. A 6-hr wait for an emergency situation is inexcusable. This happened to me in 2018 and to my brother in 2019. What part of quality control do you people not understand? Get it together, Kent General!

  51. This hospital is ridiculous I brought my daughter here twice all for them to have us wait for ever. I decided to take her else where. They triage super fast but have you wait in the waiting room forever. Staff is absolutely inattentive. No one seems to know nothing about anything. It’s not even worth one star.

  52. This afternoon I was treated in the ER at Kent. Although there was a little wait my care by the staff and physician was excellent. Thank you to all who took care of me!

  53. This place is a joke sometimes
    There’s long waits in the er and staff don’t care about you. They forgot my father was even in the room and turned off the lights when he was there. Just …

  54. This isthe worst Hospital to ever go to in the world i wouldn’t bring my dog here if i Could never again i have been here for 10 hours and still nothing. The nurse had the nerve to say it could be a 30 hour wait

  55. I’m not sure what’s up with the nurses and doctors but they need to go back to college or something. My cousin was in there for 4 days and they bruised her arm from missing her vein to many times, bruised her hip (BAD) from some kind of …

  56. Literally the WORST hospital ever let me put it like this yu will die in the waiting room!!! It’s sbsol ridiculous travel somewhere else nd I would give them NO STARS honestly

  57. Read the reviews, it’s like most of these people don’t understand how a hospital works… ER’s are rough, you don’t get sleep, usually you can’t eat until they figure out what is wrong with you. Every time I’ve been there it’s been a pleasant experience considering the situation.

  58. This is crazy this is taking foreverrrrrrrr this women across from me been here for 12hrs the man next to her been here for 14hrs the woman went to the receptionist and when she walked away I saw them all laughing at her it’s DISGUSTING!!

  59. I honestly wouldn’t even give this place one star if I could leave a review without any, place is dirty!!! Blood on the floors and the nurses and drs just walk right past it and don’t even get anyone to clean it up. ( it sat there for 2 hrs …

  60. My Dad had hip replacement and the care he received on 2B was excellant. The staff on his floor gave him professional care and called to keep the family informed. Thank you all.

  61. I have right lower abdomen pain and I have been waiting for 5 hours now to been seen, doctors are rude, front desk is rude and this place is horrible. Never ever bring ur children or yourself here.

  62. We have been to Bay Health numerous times, and usually found it a decent hospital. Today we went to visit a friend on the third floor, and his room was filthy, and the trash can was way overfilled, rubbish on the floor. Based on our visit today, I would not want to be a patient here.

  63. Got admitted for pneumonia twice abd one time for “bronchitis” in a 3 week period and they must be understaff due to a 2 hour wait time when my Iv pump has been going off ig this is how people get treated civilian or not

  64. Wish I could give minus 1. My sinuses were bad I was promised and assuered they would be fixed. It was a painful operation that ended in disaster. I have worse issues and now I have permanent blood in my nose. Also sinus infection which I never had. Hard snot every day and constant sore throat. Please do not use this quack!!!

  65. OMG!!! I’m visiting from out of state and husband had an infected foot, plus hesh diabetic. We we’re here for 3 hours and stikk hadn’t even seen the ER doctor yet. Foot oozing pus and all. We just checked out, and trying to find another …

  66. Spanning 30 years and 20 plus admissions with various members of our family this hospital consistently provides sub-standard care, nursing is understaffed, overworked and quality of patient care suffers. Hospitalists are incompetent, and social services could not be more disinterested.

  67. Great patient service and staff was superb staff. ER staff were hard working during these difficult times, and still never loose site of the needs of every patient. Always a quick response on the call button. Would highly recommend this Medical Center to anyone.

  68. Bayhealth Medical Center, Milford DE does not care about your time AND after reading the very poor reviews on they’re facilities around the state, my complaint is confirmed. …

  69. I was admitted twice this year for pulmonary edema. The nurses took good care of me and the doctors were very caring as well. I have no complaints whatsoever.

  70. All the staff were very caring, helpful and friendly. My Father’s nurse was wonderful! Very responsive and monitored him very well. I highly recommend this Hospital to anyone with emergency cardiac issues.

  71. Just hit the 4.5 hour mark of waiting in ER without being seen. Pain is worse, fever is worse. My surgeon sent me here to make sure Appendix didn’t burst. When I got here at 6pm there was only 3 other people. Dozens have come in since.

  72. This hospital told me my brother was discharged at 10 pm at night after I called them and instead of being discharged I found out the transferred him! They don’t think to tell the family who Jess been worried sick about him all night trying …

  73. Came in an ambulance blood pressure sky high ended up in the waiting room over 6 hours!!!! Lady came out and said there was a ton of beds open but only 2 drs on call. So instead of giving us all beds they flooded the waiting room until there was no seats for anyone.

  74. WORST HOSPITAL IVE EVER BEEN TO!!! I came in with excruciating pain (still am in pain). Got to the hospital at 3am and it’s not 6am and haven’t been seen once. They just stick you in that dirty waaiting room with flies and the nurses gather …

  75. BAYHEALTH APPROVED SEVERAL DOCTORS RELIGIOUS EXEMPTION REQUESTS FOR THE VACCINE BUT DENIED ALL THE PEASANTS THATS WORK THERE(nurses, techs, support staff). NOW THEYRE STARTING TO FORCE THE VAX ON WORKERS THAT HAVE LEGITIMATE RELIGIOUS …

  76. This is less of a review and more of a fyi. The ER wait is so long because there are people in the ER who are dying and are the ones who really need the care then and there. If your kid is sick or even if you cut a finger off that’s not going to be fatal, you can drive over to a walk-in clinic for that.

  77. What a great group of professionals. The duress they are under trying to handle the volume of people is insane. Truly did care about me and took care of me. Just remember, you catch more flies with honey than you do vinegar. Thanks for all you did for me and I hope this pandemic starts to curtail.

  78. I want to say that as a nurse with 25 years experience at another facility.. the unit on 3W was excellent to my daughter. She received excellent care from the ED ..to the surgeon .the nurses the CNA’s and even . to the dietary and housekeeping staff!!!! Thank you Bayhealth for a positive patient experience.

  79. As my PCM I visited the office; though she (Zulehuma Rather) may have hundreds of patients there’s no sincere connection given by her it all seems robotic. One of my visits was because I had what appears to be a boil on my right knee it was …

  80. If I could give it 0 stars I would. They don’t care about their patients they’re just there to milk insurance. Horrible waiting conditions, and even ruder staff. Treated a tourist like I like garbage. I will NEVER go there and recommend going elsewhere

  81. This place is the pits. Nearly all of the staff is rude and cold. 6 hours in the ER with my girlfriend for a very basic illness. You could see that some people were trying but the overwhelming majority of the employees were more interested …

  82. Everyone, staff, I had contact with for procedures over the years have been kind and helpful. No issues with the timing of results, in fact they have been same day in my case.

  83. Emergency services at night are awful, 3+ hours to even be seen by anyone, sitting alone in a room with no idea what’s going on. Staff are unhelpful, disrespectful, and genuinely don’t seem to care about patients at all.

  84. Had to go in today for a massive kidney stone. They treated me SO WELL and were able to get me in for surgery within a couple hours of being there. The nurses and the doctors I had today were amazing!! I am so grateful!!

  85. This is hands down the worst hospital. No covid Guidlines were followed & I was put in a room for overnight with ppl 3 ft on each side of me. The staff is unattentive & alarms are IGNORED. They even use foul language. Heart attack patients with no IV Who are ignored.

  86. I wouldn’t recommend Bayhealth to anyone who has to deal with cancer or any serious conditions. Take your loved ones to Christiana or up to Penn. Bayhealth doctors and nurses gave my fiance chemo when he was malnourished and weak. They gave …

  87. I came in from work tired and mentally exhausted and the moment I stepped foot in the outpatient department of the hospital Judy greeted me with a smile and a reassuring sense of urgency, I immediately was sent to register and LeAnna was …

  88. Love this place would rather drive 1 hour & 30 minutes to come here than to go to any other hospital closer. Friendly staff excellent doctors.
    My last 2 kids were born here

  89. Always treated with the upmost respect here. I understand the long waits suck, but this is a very busy hospital. I appreciate what these employees do, not just for me, but all their patients. Keep up the good work and thank you for everything! I’ve been here 5 times in 3 years and always left in a better position than I came in.

  90. I wish we could rate this a 0. My fiance and I had gone to the ER because he was having problems breathing. They gave him a steroid and breathing treatment and told him he was good to go. Now they did run a few labs and give him a chest …

  91. Was admitted for heart attack from Bayhealth ER in Smyrna. Staff was amazing, working hard to keep me stabilized and to the cath lab ASAP. Dr Elfazzar came and got me himself, definitely Cadillac treatment! The nurses, techs, and aides are amazing. I can’t say enough great things about them. They saved my life!

  92. Never felt so unsafe in an ER. They allow junkies to come on and shoot up in their bathrooms and then doze off on the floors. It feels like a third world country there.

  93. Went in to see my doctor for 3 month check up. The staff is so friendly .
    Always made to feel very comfortable when there. Dr. Singh and his staff are wonderful. Always listens and easy to talk with.

  94. I went in the ER because i passed out and had a head injury from falling and hitting it against the wall. They had me waiting for 7 hours in the waiting room before i finally was seen. I kid you not… 11:30 pm and they called my name at …

  95. So much for Bayhealth Kent General. They are sending someone home with sugar over 300 and in extreme pain! The alarms we’re going off constantly for 5 hours! First it would flash yellow then flash red apparently these alarms and his leads …

  96. The doctors at this facility should be investigated. My foster sister came here for an emergency induction due to blood clots and preeclampsia. She put her half sister on her fathers side on her list and her brothers ex wife on her list. …

  97. Worst hospital ever. Waited for 6 hours with my 4 year old and newborn in the dirty waiting room. There was people throwing up everywhere. There was throw up in the bathroom sink. Food all in the kids part of the waiting room, dirt and …

  98. I had to wait 4 hours to be seen in the ER – There were only a few other patients. Desk clerks were rude. Doctor was nice, but kept me waiting an additional 20 minutes while she printed a prescription on to a piece of paper…after moving …

  99. My Mom was taken by ambulance to Kent after a fall. She came in around 2:00 pm today March 13 2021. I arrived around 5:30. They said they were admitting her her observation. I have inquired numerous times about getting her a room, they …

  100. This is the worst hospital I have been to and I am not the patient. My sister who is still currently waiting to be discharged after 4 hours of waiting. The nurse button gets 9ushed and it takes 1 hour to have a nurse come in, the I.V. …

  101. This is the worse hospital ever. I waited for 9 hours and the freaking doctor dismissed how I felt because I’m “young” and appear “healthy”. It’s so dangerous for them to feel this way smh. I literally was in the back for 10 mins and then …

  102. They made fun of me when my hand broke and kept joking around about my hand and not professional here. If I could go below 1 star I would. Don’t make patients feel uncomfortable, your job is to make us feel comfortable and get us in and out.

  103. I delivered my daughter here in 2017. There was great staff the people were nice, very helpful, and each rotation of nurses we’re amazing. I took my son to the emergency room here and I had a bad experience so I guess it’s depending on the …

  104. It was my first in this hospital. I had some difficulty with my health and had to go to the ER. The staff, the nurses, and doctors were very friendly! They take their job serious and make sure everything is correct. I was at the hospital …

  105. All the negative comments are true. My 6yo son’s pediatrician advised me to take him to the emergency room for severe vomiting (26 times in 24 hours). I signed him in at 9:30 am. Had to sit in that disgustingly sticky, stained, stinky …

  106. This is the worst hospital I’ve ever been too. 8 hrs in waiting room with positive Covid test and a chronic disease called Crohn’s which I’ve had my whole life. Dr Costello is the worse dr I’ve seen in 35 yrs.The dr blatantly lied to me …

  107. I was transported to Kent General Hospital today from a serious fall. When I first got here things were great as far as care but that quickly went away. I’m supposed to be transported to Christiana Hospital for surgery by a Specialist. At …

  108. Spent 7 hours there. Too much of a headache to explain. My advice Stay away unless it’s seriously life threatening. Better off driving hours to a better hospital if needed.

  109. Hit and miss. I had quadruple bypass surgery there and the doctor was great. Caught COVID while there and had to go back after I got home. I have been told that I was not the only person that had that problem. The Covid ward was a horror …

  110. Worse ER ever! Went in with my mom at 9am by 4pm we still haven’t been taking care of. This was insane and noone came out to say anything. All you heard was loud laughs from the front desk receptionists zero professionalism ever when people …

  111. Went in with an emergency. While the waiting room potion took a couple hours once I was taken back they took great care of me. Staff was very friendly, caring, and knowledgeable in the recovery room.

  112. I should have known the level of care I would get simply by the initial interaction with the triage nurse. His monosyllabic responses and abrasive disposition were unwarranted. …

  113. This hospital is awful. I actually went there in 2019 but I’m going to review it now anyway, just to lower the rating even more. There were maybe only 15 people in the waiting room, but I had to wait SIX. HOURS. to get checked. I came at 1pm and left at 8! I was so tired! All I needed was a blood test!

  114. I feel really horrible today & they told me that there’s a 8hr wait . my out of state insurance doesn’t cover urgent care & I hate ERs but today I had no choice. I’m so upset , although i know there’s people who’s concerns are more urgent , 8 hour wait time still seems a bit excessive for a ER !

  115. I gave birth here by way of C-Section in February 2020. The staff that helped get me ready for my delivery were very good. Because I had a c-section I had to stay for 3 days. The cafeteria is by far the worst I have ever experienced (I had …

  116. The night shift doctor and and nurses are awesome. But the dayshift doctor and nurses are horrible. This is the emergency department. I’ve been in a room for hours and no one came to see if I’m ok are if I need anything. I’m the forgotten patient.

  117. My mother went in for brain surgery yesterday and it was our first time there and I HAVE to say we were pleasantly surprised and so very thankful to the doctors and staff. Everyone was so nice. Barely any wait time. They continuously called …

  118. Came on a Friday afternoon, was seen promptly but still experiencing pain when I left. Came Saturday evening to be re-diagnosed, in excruciating pain, having great blood loss, but had to wait in the lobby for over 6 hours… The one star is …

  119. I came in around 12:00pm and everything was very quick until I came back to the patient result waiting area. I have been waiting on labs for 4 hours, when I was told it would only be 1 hour. I have asked for water several times, and not one …

  120. I had a scheduled catheterization at this hospital on October 16, 2020. Dr. Elijazzar, who did the proceedure, and his team were very proficient. However the hospital staff in the outpatient area was worse than I could have imagined. The …

  121. Granddaughter came in with head injury fell from 3 feet on head hard floor lump on back of head. My daughter went in at 1230pm was aware of everyone in waiting room I got there at 130pm she saw a couple who got there right when she did go …

  122. Bayhealth ER, Staff in the back have the worst attitudes. Patient laid in his own blood n fluids for a few hours. Everytime I asked nurse for something she acted annoyed and like we were bothering her. Information was not properly given …

  123. When we arrived at Bayhealth in Dover at 10:20 to be with my husband who was taken to the hospital by ambulance officer Jonathan McDaniel allowed the three of us: myself, our granddaughter and friend, we are visiting in Dover, who drove us …

  124. I would give them 0 but thats not an option. I came in to get a rock removed from my son’s ear, the doctor tried once got scared and stopped, his dad asked for a different doctor and was refusing to leave until it was out and they refused …

  125. I wish I could give a zero rating but one will have to do ! I was recently admitted at Kent General and patient advocate told me my exclusively breastfed baby had to leave in 30 minutes or they were calling child protective services they …

  126. Had triple bypass. Doctors and especially the nurses were great. Food service needs improvement and they don’t always ask you want you want. Would like to see some of rooms modernized.

  127. My relative presented to the hospital with reported suicidal ideation. The covering psychiatrist contacted his HCP (another relative) and discussed a possible treatment plan. The next day, my cousin called me to tell me he was being …

  128. First bad review, 1 star is generous. We arrived at 10pm, and stayed inside until 12am; then security switched up and kicked us outside until 2am. Terrible service from security who was unnecessarily rude and had different standards for how …

  129. Would rate 0 stars if I could. Attitudes of some staff is deplorable. Lack of rooms leaves people out waiting for HOURS. There’s never been a time I’ve left there & my condition was better than before I came. They’re just horrible w/ their …

  130. Staff is nice but bayhealth needs to reexamine their flow and procedures. No communication between departments. Antiquated admittance and triage procedures through emergency that lead to multiple inefficiencies resulting in patients just leaving without being seen due to exposure risks and just outright uncomfortable.

  131. It’s a hospital of death. Utterly neglectful of my friend’s stepfather who is suffering the effects of a seizure. Sitting in his own urine because they won’t put on a condom catheter. Swollen tissue and other wounds because of neglect. Constantly asking his wife to allow them to let him die.

  132. My daughter has been waiting over 5 hours in the waiting room with Covid and fever. People are right. You could die in this waiting area from Covid before getting seen.

  177. Why is your gift shop closed to visitors due to Covid but a pharmacy store is open? I used to enjoy visiting the gift shop and eating there.

  183. My grandmother came into your ER by ambulance in EXTREME pain and in a state of delirium. When she was ABUSED, MISTREATED, and NEGLECTED. We have photos for proof. My grandmother should not be sitting in her own waste and blood, when she has nurses ON CALL. This WILL NEVER happen to my grandmother AGAIN.

  184. Horrible service from one of the medical attendants at our doctor’s office. Took hours to be taken care of after refusal of service. Had to call the medical director at the office and had to come back in and was finally helped but was told this should never have happened but it still did.

I wouldn’t recommend this hospital to anyone

  190. The emergency room at this hospital is a joke. People could die before being seen and the staff are useless for any helpful info. I waited longer than 9 hours to be consulted about my x-rays and tests and still waiting. I will never use this poor excuse of a hospital again.

  191. If I could give a -5 I would. The ER was a joke, certain staff were not informative(one in particular in trauma)

  197. The worst hospital every! I was transported by ambulance due to Tbone car accident airbags deployed! When I arrived to the hospital I was taken off stretcher and put into wooden wheel chair and pushed to waiting room with now numerous …

  198. How is 16 hour wait times legally allowed? There’s no way I should be told I have to wait for at least 16 hours for a bed with a near stroke level blood pressure reading. No one is even monitoring my pressure! The US dept of health should investigate this ER and its practices.

  199. My family sat for two hours only to be told the beds are full and all the patients are being admitted and waiting to
    be transferred to another location. …

  200. All I did was wait. They move you from the waiting room to the hallway just to wait some more, then back to the waiting room to wait some more, then they move you into a room to wait some more. And I’m talking about hours each wait time. No …

  201. I wish I could give zero stars!! This hospital needs to be shut down!! Between them being a giant HIPAA violation and also not caring one bit about their patients. The people at registration are completely useless and are rude and have an …
