  1. Honestly they don’t know how to do their job broke my pinky and they just put a cast on it with out resetting the broken bone and the cast fell apart in the first week

  2. I would have given it 0 stars but that wasn’t an option.I don’t recommend going to any Capital Region clinic, or they’re hospital.It took two days to get an anxiety medication refill, but before that I had to take a piss test that I’m sure they’ll bill me for.I never had to take one before.Ive been talking the prescription for 9 years.

  3. Waited 3 hours for the doctor to come in my injury with finger a couple times and say put ice on it. No one came to check on me except for when I first got in.

  4. Check in process is AWFUL unless admitted through ER! They should do like SSM ( S. Mary’s) where you go to the department you at scheduled yo be and check in there!!!

  5. If I could give zero stars I would this emergency room was the worst and the doctor was horrible she shouldn’t be allowed to be a doctor I came in with a major stomach pain doubled over cramping she didn’t examine me she sat across the room …

  6. My aunt was there in 2017 for major heart problems. She could not have had better care. She even made a special trip back there to perssonally thank them for their care!

  7. David Wood, the Telecom Administrator, is also a Missouri Legislator who voted for a mandatory, 2nd invasive pelvic exam for women, 72 hours before outpatient surgery. He does not appear to be a licensed physician, yet is helping write the …

  8. The picture is of my boyfriends leg that was left uncleaned by any nurse after he came into the emergency room after a car accident. This cut bleed though he’s pants and was left untreated from 12:00 Sunday night until 4:00am Monday morning.

  9. Wife needed an I V, waiting in the ER for 4 hours and still don’t know when she can get in. And it’s a slow Friday afternoon, now night. Not staffed real well.

  10. Spent 6 hours in the emergency room, wasn’t given any lab results until I said I wanted to go home. The nurses spent most of the time laughing and joking at the nurses desk. It took them an hour to come to my room to collect my urine sample. This hospital is horrible and I don’t recommend it for anyone with an emergency!!!

  11. Was told by day nurse that I could stay overnight with my 70 year old mother who is having a lung biopsy tomorrow then the night nurse kicked me out at 10pm. Terrible bedside manner

  12. Went in twice for severe stomach pain and diarrhea. Got sent home twice with out treatment. Second doctor had to call me the next day to tell me I had a stomach infection. Looked it up online and it turned out it could be life threatening.

  13. The nurse Grace was very rude, unprofessional, not willing to help or assist with others. She wasn’t knowledgeable on hospital policy and had a Nonchalant non-caring Demeanor !!! I Would not recommend this place to anybody

  14. Waiting over 5 hours to see a doctor, for my daughter who had a temperature of 103.9F our nurses was amazing and very kind but the remainder of the staff just stood around talking

  15. I just went there for severe pain in my foot. I thought I may have twisted something so I expected an xray to see whether a bone might have been out of place. Instead of giving me an xray the so-called doctor (Zafar) just took a cursory …

  16. Everybody has some experience or another when going to the Hospital. CRMC has always been my choice. The nursing staff are compassionate and friendly. The Hospital is always clean. I have had some very negative experiences with St. …

  17. Probably the worst hospital experience I’ve ever had. I had been diagnosed with appendicitis from another facility, and had decided to take it out at capital region. After arriving they made there own diagnosis saying it was only dilated, …

  18. While on a visit to Jefferson City my wife had an episode with high blood pressure and when I took her to the emergency room we went through the typical triog.but during the questions I was never asked who I was and I was completely ignored …

  19. Very poor experience in the ER. We were checked in and then left alone in a hallway for 30 minutes . We finally got up and found our own way out. Not a caring atmosphere . Will not return for an emergency.

  20. Capital Region Medical Centers covid floor is wonderful. The care, compassion, and professionalism was outstanding. It’s a great crew and I was very thankful for each and everyone.

  21. This hospital is a disgrace to the medical community of the United States!!!! My wife had surgery back in november 2014 and developed a infection where she has surgery 3 month later her surgeon Judith Light said she was just dumbfounded by …

  22. Girlfriend went in for clavicle joined surgery, was supposed to take 40 min. Took 5 hours. Swore it felt like she was being tortured the whole time. Also the same place that told me and my daughters mother that our daughter was cancer and not pregnancy.

  23. Went in with some severe stomach pains, while passing through on work. Was there for 6 hours (I understand this is part of the treatment process for stomach pains), but I never once saw a doctor. They did tests and I just sat there until it went away. They then sent me to collections after never having sent me a bill. No bueno.

  24. My daughter had a baby there yesterday. The room and nurses were great. My only complaint, is I had brought her some Starbucks coffee drinks, that the nurses put in the fridge and some employee saw fit to take them!

  25. I was having chest pains at the emergency reception. I was taken immediately to the Emergency room. The physician and nurses were excellent. Within five minutes, the physician performed an EKG to explain that I had a heart attack. The …

  26. Went to the ER to get stitches in my knuckle. Was expecting to wait a while, but waited less than 10 minutes and I was taken to the back. The NP and nurse was awesome and didn’t even make fun of me (well, a little) for my own stupidity in …

  27. My moms friend rushed my mom in the emergency room because she was having a heart attack. They made her wait almost an hour to take her back and let two people go back before her because they were younger. When she finally did go back to …

  28. I took my 8 year old son to the ER here because it was the closest after he injured his knee.
    He was seen by Osoego Elochukwu. My son was unable to put any pressure/move his …

  29. Had a wonderful nurse when we arrived at the er but after shift change we got a nurse that had the worst bedside manners I have seen in a while, I think she took it personal when I made a comment to the fact that my daughter was being …

  30. The head nurse John in the Emergency room is the most sorry nurse I have ever seen. He would rather talk to his staff than care about his paitiens . This will be the last time I go there

  31. Mindy , ER nurse had the most disgusting bedside manners ! Dealing with several emergencies in our family on travel and this nurse was the nastiest person to deal with ! She couldn’t handle her patient and show compassion or empathy . She …

  32. Best hospital I have ever experienced, have had multiple surgeries there, and I was treated with the upmost respect, and all my needs were met and then some. Very polite with the exception of one nurse, however everything was explained to …

  33. The cardiac floor took the greatest care of me I could have asked for. I was flowen in from the Oklahoma Panhandle with heart problems and DR. Sanders and his crew did a great job with every test he did to find out what needed to be done to fix me I can’t THANK them enough may GOD BLESS THEM ALL.

  34. I don’t remember the name of the procedure, but they send a camera in from your wrist to your heart. They determined that 75% of my heart had blockages. Two days later I had a quadruple bypass, and everyone was wonderful. The medical …

  35. I love this hospital I like how everyone is so nice they treat you as a friend and not a cash cow. All the nurses and doctors in the ER didn’t treat me as though I wasn’t there, they kept me in the loop step by step throughout the process …

  36. My 2 year old daughter was brought in with a high fever and was told it was a ear ache that caused it. She was above 103. I asked for someone to do a X-ray of her chest because it sounded badly. They said there’s no reason to. Sent us home …

  37. My Husband just had a hip replacement surgery yesterday, and we were both thoroughly impressed with literally all of the staff and the care he was given, from his doctor, to literally everyone. Everything was very clean, organized, and …

  39. I have been going to Dr. Smith and his staff at Wound Care twice a week for several weeks now. They are a wonderful team! He’s very interactive, and always asks how I feel and if this feels better. The nurses have my treatment down to a …

  40. I have a son who had emergency surgery last night. I left to go get some sleep and come back this morning to be told that I cannot get in to be with my son cause their visiting hours are over. No one said anything about not being able to …

  41. Sarah from Xray showed such sympathy for my situation. I walked from er to xray. My back was killing me. Sarah carried my purse for me. Offered for me to hold her arm and hand more than once.I didn’t want to be a chore. But she offered and …

  42. They want their money enough to send you to collections at the drop of a hat but not enough to have a user-friendly billing system. I got a bill, I paid a bill. Then I paid another bill, but that was for the hospital not the medical center. …

  43. December 15, 2018
    My husband had a truck accident and was brought to this facility. He had a concussion, shoulder, and hip injury. I was 3 hours away in Springfield Missouri. …

  44. Wouldn’t be my choice for care for anyone I care about . Dr Lisa kolb put my sister at risk for serious infection and complications due to not following strict protocol while performing dialysis. They did not have accurate records of what …

  45. My daughter in law was a patient at CRMC for 6 weeks before she passed. I could not have asked for more compassion and dedication from the ICU staff or her Drs. They were very helpful and understanding during the COVID precautions time and …

  46. I’m from out of town. I came here Friday. I realized Friday night I had forgotten my insulin. My pharmacy transferred my insulin to Walgreens Saturday. Saturday night I realized they didn’t give me the needle caps so I called your hospital …

  47. I went too capital region where I tested positive for covid. Well next day I had come back, couldn’t breathe I didn’t know if I was gonna b ok. They admitted me they immediately got too work treating me. I was panicking and they calmed me …

  48. Most amazing experience with my surgery. They did such a good job that I’d even recommend the surgery to anyone. Dr Teri Deffenbaugh, her office and the surgical staff exceeded my expectations. They made sure to call the next day to make …

  49. I had to wait 5 months to get an appointment with a gastrointestinal Dr. I finally get an appointment for today, Dec 29th at 3:30. I arrive to find out it’s for tomorrow, not today. Yesterday I get a robo call asking me to confirm my appt …

  50. This is the worst hospital in the entire United States. The woman who is the receptionist at night is the rudest, nastiest most hateful person I have ever met in my life, probably ever. I have never been talked down to in such a manner in …

  51. We are a active duty Military family that was traveling from Texas to this area from a Red Cross emergency surgery on a family member . While here I suffered excruciating pain and was vomiting real bad . The ambulance brought me here and I …

  52. As a first time mom, being scared of the whole delivery process.. I would absolutely come to Capital Regions again for another child. From the great staff, great doctor and excellent care. They also provided a dinner for two parents. 10/10

  53. Brought my son to the ER on july 3, 2021. He had severe migraine pains and was suffering. My son is one that usually refuses medical care at all costs, but he had even brought himself to their ER earlier that afternoon to try to get some …

  54. Doctors are fine but billing sucks.
    I have 2 insurances and they still send my account to creditors. I’m tired if doing their accounting for them.
    After 3 weeks i can’t get through via phone call.

  55. The nurses were nice when they were around but they were never there, also they could be quieter at 3am when people are in the ER for severe pain. I laid there for 3 hours before only I noticed my IV never started & that’s why I was still …

  56. My primary care doc, OBGYN, and pediatrician are excellent. I’ve had a surgery that went smoothly, my surgeon was very clear and communicative, and multiple trips to the ER, and besides the wait (which always feels longer when its an …

  57. My mother was in the hospital this last week. We were hoping she would get better and go home but it was her time to go to Heaven. The staff on the 3rd floor were absolutely wonderful, kind and caring. The housekeeping staff kept us …

  58. If I could give it zero stars I would. You guys need to be a little more lenient with your visitor policy. I have a loved one in the ER and drove all the way from Columbia to visit this person. When I got to the ER first thing I’m told is I …

  59. I’ve had 2 surgeries at Capital Regional Hospital this year and I had the very best care. I was treated with respect and they answered my questions very thoroughly. Everything was on time. I couldn’t have asked for better care. Dr Wilhelm and Dr Deffenbaugh for my surgeries were great and very caring as well.

  60. I went in with extreme pain, passing a kidney stone. Blood pressure was extremely high due to the pain. When I arrived the person at the desk was very quick and told me someone would be out to get me. After a wait of about 25 minutes …

  61. New to the area and called over the summer to secure a normal yearly appt. I set it with Dr. Blanchard for their soonest available December 23rd which is today. I got a call yesterday that their system is down and they had to cancel my appt …

  62. I don’t understand why people leave horrible reviews. I have never been unsatisfied with any services my kids or myself have received. I always find the staff very friendly, great bedside manners. The rooms are large and easy to move …

  63. Went and tested positive for Covid. The staff was absolutely wonderful. Every staff member I met was a superhero in their own right. They made sure I was taken care of. My nurses were outstanding never let me down and mad sure I had …

  64. If I could give minus 10,000 stars I would. The most horrible place from the emergency room to clinic and lab. My daughter had a miscarriage last week the ER was absolutely horrible disregarded her symptoms sent her home and second visit …

  65. Very disappointed with the overall atmosphere. Waiting for my brother to have a child. We obviously all know, this takes time. Their OB waiting room has been having conferences, which is no problem. We’ve been here for 7 hours, then …

  66. One of the best healthcare provider facility in Jefferson City. I have been using Capital Region Medical Center since 1990s and have never had any issues with them. In particular, I am grateful to their billing department for working with …

  67. It was clean. Other than that, the whole experience was terrible. I drove 1 1/2 hours, as this was the hospital I was referred to from my PCM. The week prior the receptionist called and said my appointment was at 1:00pm. We got there on the …

  68. Just tried to pick someone up. That was it. The hospital called me, told me to pull up to outpatient and park outside the doors. Arrived at 2:10 to be told it would take longer but I should keep my car parked outside the doors and wait …

  69. I’ve gone here for years and I love my Dr. But this place is always a hot mess. They’ve blamed their issues on their new computer systems for like 2 years now it seems. I almost always have to wait 30+ mins for my appointments (sometimes an …

  70. My son fell and broke his wrist. The ER staff was quick and friendly. Within the week we got him in to see Dr. Gupta. He and his staff were helpful and friendly as well. The facility is clean and modern with plenty of parking.

  71. Was there for rehab after surgery early December & then again in the ER on the 23rd ultimately admitted to the 3rd floor. All my care & interactions with Dr’s, nurses, OT, PT was wonderful. I am a retired nurse. I know what’s good & what is not. No complaints from me. Only place I turn too. Thank you all for all your hard work.

  72. Went to the ER for ear pain sent home with no help. Went to the doctor the next day both ears where infected. Don’t waste your time going there. Go to columbia. Better doctors and a better care.

  73. I have always enjoyed CRMC. My male nurses, especially Doug Selbach, has always been very nice and helpful to me. They’re food was very good. A lot depends on your doctors also. Dr William Schegel (who is NO longer there) saved my life in 2003

  74. My wife was there for one week before she passed, the nurses were great but the Drs nonexistent. They overdosed my wife, a lung cancer patient and to compensate they decided no more pain medication so she suffered for 24hrs before they told …

  75. The only reason that there’s not five stars is because they are understaffed. My wife was in there for 18 days and intensive care and the nurses were so caring and loving to her. She passed on August 5th 2022. But I couldn’t ask for better nursing or doctors that she had. They tried everything to save her.

  76. Discharged my 78 year old mother from the ER with a “vertigo” diagnosis. She arrived by ambulance. They were sending her home with my 79 year old father. I told them my parents lived 90 minutes away if they called 911. She could not walk …

  77. Capital Region is not the place to take your family. I’ve accompanied my elderly parents to this hospital twice within a short time frame. Each time the staff have been unpleasant to deal with and refused to pass on instructions to me or my …

  78. CRMC Physicians was an excellent doctor’s office for a while, although over the last few months, my kid, wife, and I have all lost the doctors we have had for several years because they left the practice. I am not sure what happened, but …

  79. All the nurses in labor and delivery are amazing! Had such a great experience and never felt better taken care of. Each genuinely spent time getting to know me and my baby and not just coming in to quickly get things done. …
