(Translated by Google) Visit this hospital on Wednesday 10- February-2016. The symptoms were fever, cough, brown mucus, back pain, body aches and shortness of breath, and weakness. In addition to this I had a bad stomach for 2 days before …
The doctor and nurse were great. Good luck getting medical records from them when you need follow-up treatment. Small hospital with big-city bureaucracy.
I went to the ER with pretty bad stomach pain and cramping. Waited over two hours before being called back, which I was willing to do in order to receive some help. After tests were done, I was diagnosed with a splenic cyst. The problem, …
No one seems to want to work,must called out when I was there. Further more the financial dept is full of liars that don’t know what’s going on at all.
My experience with this hospital, is horrible I’ve been waiting more then two hours just to be seen and the staff is lazy and rude. Bottom line go to Savannah
Sat 3 hours in back after my chest x ray and then the doctor come in after 3 hours said he was going to wright me a scrip for cough and i waited another hour before he came back with the scrip
Why anyone would go to Memorial when Effingham is available is beyond me. I have yet to go in for routine tests where I wasn’t greeted warmly, treated respectfully AND PROMPTLY. …
I just completed my Occupational Therapy and couldn’t be more pleased with the facility. Russell and Magan were amazing with helping me get the use back in my elbow.
I just wanted to say my brother goes in there hurting bad oh it’s cozy go home take some Tylenol ibuprofen guess where he is this morning having surgery on his gallbladder the emergency room doctors is a joke
Always excellent service with no waiting at Effingham Family Medicine in Guyton. The staff is always very professional and courteous. Kristie Moore is the best!!
Typical ER. No sense of urgency and the wait time is excruciating. At least let people sign in and then send them a text when it’s their turn to be seen.
Brought my 2 year old in because she was having respiratory issues Dr Hogan wrote her a prescription for a steroid pill after they saw that she could not chew it and would not eat it crushed in pudding , I simply asked if I could get it …
Excellent service from the ER Dept and from the whole hospital staff during my 10 day stay. Big change with the new permanent doctors and staff. Effingham needed this! Thank you
This hospital is by far one of the worst I’ve ever been to. Im literally laying in er room making this review thats how bad i feel and how crappy i feel i was treated. I will definitely be getting ahold of the administration. If I could give it less than 1 star I would.
never really had a problem with this hospital just small things here and there, but just got off the phone with my insurance company and the hospital has been trying to double bill for bills that have been paid by insurance and then trying to send the same bill to a collection agency. will never go back to this hospital again
Save your self time and pain, I would like to give them a big negative -5 ⭐ the worst unprofessional uncaring emergency facility I’ve ever been in. Definitely staff and doctors are there just to get a paycheck not caring about patients, …
Amazing ER I was in and within the first 30 minutes they had already done all the necessary test! Very friendly staff I would recommend this ER from any that I have ever been to!! The best around 5 stars all day!!
This place is so horribly slow. I would rather drive to savannah to get my kid help. This place is ridiculous. Like come on your a hospital. And let alone don’t even have a L&D.
My family has used the Imaging Services on several occasions over the last year, at the hospital and Imaging Center. Always great service! Facilities are clean. Staff is wonderful!
My mistake I thought the sign said EMERGENCY ROOM. The women at the check in window was completely rude and could not have shown any less concern and after being skipped over 3 times I had to leave and the shock was when I told the same …
Excellent service when my husband had to get an MRI. We did not have to wait long; the whole process was very efficient and the staff were very knowledgeable. Thank you Effingham Health System!
Misdiagnosed my son with a stomach virus that was ACTUALLY a spider bite. We came in with the complaint of a growing spider bite or bug bite of some sort & I was told ” spiders don’t bite kids, webmd makes parents think that” …
My husband went in with an
Aceomioclavicular Seperation. All they did was an x ray, gave him a sling and sent him home. They didn’t even tell him what was wrong. His shoulder was missing …
I saw a Dr Campbell on Thursday 1/14/16. I was sure it was a kidney stone. He walked in looked at the meds list I’m on for a 25 year old injury. I saw a change in his face he thought I only wanted drugs. He said it was a muscle spasm. He …
Nothing was as it should be . misdiagnosed my broke bone . was told to walk on it ..nothing done to keep it stable . no crutches to help me walk . and sat there 4 hours without any type of pain meds . this place is a joke …they all seem …
Never in my life have I ever had a hospital wait until the day before surgery to tell you the schedule or the amount of co pay and refuse service or reschedule of surgery after surgery has been scheduled for several months. Most backwards and unprofessional environment ever.
Worst experience ever. Dr winstead was very unprofessional. Did not even introduce himself when he walked into the room. I had to ask who he was. Was there from 1230am-5am and we were the only ones there. Will never go back to this ER. I’ll drive to savannah next time!!!
My husband had a very good experience with an MRI. The staff were very caring, friendly and efficient.He was in a lot of pain and they did their best to make him as comfortable as possible.
Effingham Health System is a clean, caring, knowledge and safe hospital where people care about their patients. I have had many friends and family that have been seen at the hospital in the ER and have stayed in the hospital and I was very happy with how they(we) were treated.
Such kind and helpful staff. My little boy was sick one night with terrible stomach pains and they got him right back, X-rays and found the problem. The staff was fast and caring, put me and my son at ease.
Always excellent care and treatment at Effingham Hospital ER, MRI services at Hospital and Open MRI in Rincon, as well as radiology services at hospital and Goshen facility. Very little if any waiting and when waiting is necessary, explanations have been thorough.
While the staff was friendly enough. Nearly 4k$ for 2 hours where we didn’t even see a doctor is nothing short of robbery. Go to Savannah if you need a hospital. You will end up there anyway….
The Absolute Worst! I will never take anyone to that ER again. Not sure what was going on with the staff at the reception desk, but you just don’t treat people that are worried about family that way. If you can make it to another ER I would strongly suggest doing so.
We are lucky to even have a hospital of any kind but… I was there for siatica symptoms and the doctor came in stood by the bed and said it sounded like siatica, ordered me 2 pills to take there (one was coedine based pill which I am …
Every time we have to come here the treatment gets worse. The fron desk staf is rude and lazy. The er staff (minus one or two) is just as lazy. All they have is excuses as to why things aren’t done, and no accountability for getting things …
The doctor said a few disparaging things about me to the staff and I could hear them laughing from my room. The absolute worst experience I have ever had. Maybe you can give your staff some people skills. Treatment like this should never be tolerated. Unbelievable. Nasty little man and nasty little people.
I have used Effingham Hospital for 7 years and have had wonderful experiences. The registration process is the only area that needs to pick it up a little. I’ve had MRI’s, mammagrams, and ER. Expert care in all these departments.
Effingham Hospital has totally change the way I look at healthcare. The staff is so professional and the care was wonderful. Me and my wife are glad we have a wonderful hospital.
I had gallbladder surgery yesterday and dr wynn and the nurses were amazing. They even gave me a card they all signed. That was sweet lisa and to all the nurses that were by my side thank you so much. I had a great experience
The clerk for ECB occupational medicine is racist, rude, and extremely unprofessional! She needs to be fired. Her actions today will be handled in court.
Horrible…. sat in the waiting room for 4 hrs watching people come in after us getting seen before us. No one to help you or give you information. Nurses not friendly or courteous. It sucked here. …
I would give zero stars if I could. I visited the ER in Feb 2020 and they could not help with my situation and turned me away. But still billed my insurance and for services I did not receive. They will not return my phone calls or give a …
This “Hospital” is a major joke. I showed up at midnight to the ER with a Severed finger and waited for four hours in the waiting room by myself, then, when their doctor got here, they figured we could do registration for the doc saw my …
This place doesnt deserve any star. My husband came in for a smashed thumb. We signed in at 8:30pm. Numerous people after him were seen and left. Then finally called him back at 11pm. No one saw him until 12am. I’ve sat out in the waiting …
Today I went in for a MRI. Shawn was very sweet, also the young lady that was working with him. It was the most pleasant MRI I ever had, and I have had a few. Thank you for all that you do!
Our son was injured during football practice and was rushed to Effingham ER. They took such tender care of him and could not have done a better job of easing his pain and helping him relax. We are so thankful for the ER team at Effingham Hospital!!!
I had my first initial visit with Dr. Toni Sylvester at the Women’s Health Center. She is amazing. She was so caring and explained everything so I could understand and took time with me. The entire staff there was excellent. I believe I made a great choice in seeing her.

My 8 year old daughter had to go to the Imaging Center on Goshen Rd in April. The facility was very clean and spotless. The staff was very friendly and professional. My daughter was very nervous about the procedure but the tech was great …
I came in to check my oxygen level. I was told to wait outside in the 90 degree heat. Pass out on the floor and was given a wheelchair to pass out on. After 6 hours of heat, I was put in a freezing room. Call twice for a blanket. I am still freezing.

If the only insurance you have is medicaid, expect a huge bill and no forewarning that you aren’t completely covered. Since I’m on disability, which barely covers my regular bills, there is absolutely no way I can ever pay these hospital …

I have received my blood work and mammograms for years at effingham health system.. And everyone has always been very professional and fast… I have never waited more than 20 minutes between registering and getting my test completed. Customer service is exceptional..

Everyone was warm, friendly and capable. We greatly appreciated their efforts and were thankful to be able to go home with a healthier baby.
Been sitting in the waiting room for 3 hours with 3 sick kids and 2 people have already walked out. Y’all have signs that say wait time could be 4-6 hours, that is completely ridiculous. Maybe one day this hospital will actually improve.

This review is based solely on the fact they will only let one person back with someone in the emergency room. The explanation given was” they just never changed it after covid”. This is ridiculous and unacceptable.
There for 3.5hrs “missed” my sons name (more like didn’t even put it in) meaning the 7 ppl who came in AFTER us were now IN FRONT of us!!!! Left without being seen bc 3.5hrs without even being seen in triage is absurd! Get it together !!!

Wonderful staff in the mammogram/ultrasound department.
I will die before I go back to the emergency room
My experience with this hospital, is horrible I’ve been waiting more then two hours just to be seen and the staff is lazy and rude. Bottom line go to Savannah
What a complete waste of time! They have no interest in helping. It’s just a paycheck I guess!
Top notch care and a compassionate and knowledgeable staff. I’m very grateful to have this facility in this community.
I would put 0 stars if i could. Horrible staff that are not attentive at all. Easily the worst hospital ive ever been to.
In and out in less than two hours on Sunday evening with an elderly parent with bronchitis. Staff was generally nice.
Very clean. Friendly staff. Prompt to be seen when visited. There was no one else in the waiting area.
Don’t take care of patients in waiting room. Disturbing and disgusting! My family was mistreated and I know others are!
You could go in here healthy and probably still die.
Sat 3 hours in back after my chest x ray and then the doctor come in after 3 hours said he was going to wright me a scrip for cough and i waited another hour before he came back with the scrip
Excellent experience with outpatient radiology-MRI suite and mammography. Timely, competent, professional, friendly providers
Why anyone would go to Memorial when Effingham is available is beyond me. I have yet to go in for routine tests where I wasn’t greeted warmly, treated respectfully AND PROMPTLY. …
I just completed my Occupational Therapy and couldn’t be more pleased with the facility. Russell and Magan were amazing with helping me get the use back in my elbow.
Very friendly and efficient. Processed paperwork and administered the tests in a professional manner.
I just wanted to say my brother goes in there hurting bad oh it’s cozy go home take some Tylenol ibuprofen guess where he is this morning having surgery on his gallbladder the emergency room doctors is a joke
Always excellent service with no waiting at Effingham Family Medicine in Guyton. The staff is always very professional and courteous. Kristie Moore is the best!!
Typical ER. No sense of urgency and the wait time is excruciating. At least let people sign in and then send them a text when it’s their turn to be seen.
Brought my 2 year old in because she was having respiratory issues Dr Hogan wrote her a prescription for a steroid pill after they saw that she could not chew it and would not eat it crushed in pudding , I simply asked if I could get it …
Excellent service from the ER Dept and from the whole hospital staff during my 10 day stay. Big change with the new permanent doctors and staff. Effingham needed this! Thank you
Needed some minor surgery done quickly today. Wow, everyone was awesome. Doctors, nurses, staff were lovely and could not have been more professional.
This hospital is by far one of the worst I’ve ever been to. Im literally laying in er room making this review thats how bad i feel and how crappy i feel i was treated. I will definitely be getting ahold of the administration. If I could give it less than 1 star I would.
Nice staff in the beginning, very long wait, there was only one Dr in the ER. He didn’t seem to take much time with our emergency visit.
never really had a problem with this hospital just small things here and there, but just got off the phone with my insurance company and the hospital has been trying to double bill for bills that have been paid by insurance and then trying to send the same bill to a collection agency. will never go back to this hospital again
Nurse’s are the best,overall the hospital is the worst.
3 hrs waiting when I asked how long it would be was completely blown off
Save your self time and pain, I would like to give them a big negative -5 ⭐ the worst unprofessional uncaring emergency facility I’ve ever been in. Definitely staff and doctors are there just to get a paycheck not caring about patients, …
Amazing ER I was in and within the first 30 minutes they had already done all the necessary test! Very friendly staff I would recommend this ER from any that I have ever been to!! The best around 5 stars all day!!
This place is so horribly slow. I would rather drive to savannah to get my kid help. This place is ridiculous. Like come on your a hospital. And let alone don’t even have a L&D.
My family has used the Imaging Services on several occasions over the last year, at the hospital and Imaging Center. Always great service! Facilities are clean. Staff is wonderful!
My mistake I thought the sign said EMERGENCY ROOM. The women at the check in window was completely rude and could not have shown any less concern and after being skipped over 3 times I had to leave and the shock was when I told the same …
The tech the performed my mammogram, Emily, was wonderful!! She was attentive, friendly, and explained everything so well!
Excellent service when my husband had to get an MRI. We did not have to wait long; the whole process was very efficient and the staff were very knowledgeable. Thank you Effingham Health System!
Misdiagnosed my son with a stomach virus that was ACTUALLY a spider bite. We came in with the complaint of a growing spider bite or bug bite of some sort & I was told ” spiders don’t bite kids, webmd makes parents think that” …
My husband went in with an
Aceomioclavicular Seperation. All they did was an x ray, gave him a sling and sent him home. They didn’t even tell him what was wrong. His shoulder was missing …
I saw a Dr Campbell on Thursday 1/14/16. I was sure it was a kidney stone. He walked in looked at the meds list I’m on for a 25 year old injury. I saw a change in his face he thought I only wanted drugs. He said it was a muscle spasm. He …
Nothing was as it should be . misdiagnosed my broke bone . was told to walk on it ..nothing done to keep it stable . no crutches to help me walk . and sat there 4 hours without any type of pain meds . this place is a joke …they all seem …
Never in my life have I ever had a hospital wait until the day before surgery to tell you the schedule or the amount of co pay and refuse service or reschedule of surgery after surgery has been scheduled for several months. Most backwards and unprofessional environment ever.
Worst experience ever. Dr winstead was very unprofessional. Did not even introduce himself when he walked into the room. I had to ask who he was. Was there from 1230am-5am and we were the only ones there. Will never go back to this ER. I’ll drive to savannah next time!!!
My husband had a very good experience with an MRI. The staff were very caring, friendly and efficient.He was in a lot of pain and they did their best to make him as comfortable as possible.
Effingham Health System is a clean, caring, knowledge and safe hospital where people care about their patients. I have had many friends and family that have been seen at the hospital in the ER and have stayed in the hospital and I was very happy with how they(we) were treated.
Such kind and helpful staff. My little boy was sick one night with terrible stomach pains and they got him right back, X-rays and found the problem. The staff was fast and caring, put me and my son at ease.
Always excellent care and treatment at Effingham Hospital ER, MRI services at Hospital and Open MRI in Rincon, as well as radiology services at hospital and Goshen facility. Very little if any waiting and when waiting is necessary, explanations have been thorough.
While the staff was friendly enough. Nearly 4k$ for 2 hours where we didn’t even see a doctor is nothing short of robbery. Go to Savannah if you need a hospital. You will end up there anyway….
Had my MRI today. The staff was very friendly. Billie the MRI tech was very caring and let me know every step that was done. Billie you rock!!
The Absolute Worst! I will never take anyone to that ER again. Not sure what was going on with the staff at the reception desk, but you just don’t treat people that are worried about family that way. If you can make it to another ER I would strongly suggest doing so.
We are lucky to even have a hospital of any kind but… I was there for siatica symptoms and the doctor came in stood by the bed and said it sounded like siatica, ordered me 2 pills to take there (one was coedine based pill which I am …
Every time we have to come here the treatment gets worse. The fron desk staf is rude and lazy. The er staff (minus one or two) is just as lazy. All they have is excuses as to why things aren’t done, and no accountability for getting things …
Toby Sledge was a very knowledgeable and courteous agent. My wife and I are excited to get our new shower.
The doctor said a few disparaging things about me to the staff and I could hear them laughing from my room. The absolute worst experience I have ever had. Maybe you can give your staff some people skills. Treatment like this should never be tolerated. Unbelievable. Nasty little man and nasty little people.
Left in the same condition I arrived in. Doctor was useless and incompetent
I have used Effingham Hospital for 7 years and have had wonderful experiences. The registration process is the only area that needs to pick it up a little. I’ve had MRI’s, mammagrams, and ER. Expert care in all these departments.
Effingham Hospital has totally change the way I look at healthcare. The staff is so professional and the care was wonderful. Me and my wife are glad we have a wonderful hospital.
I had gallbladder surgery yesterday and dr wynn and the nurses were amazing. They even gave me a card they all signed. That was sweet lisa and to all the nurses that were by my side thank you so much. I had a great experience
The clerk for ECB occupational medicine is racist, rude, and extremely unprofessional! She needs to be fired. Her actions today will be handled in court.
Horrible…. sat in the waiting room for 4 hrs watching people come in after us getting seen before us. No one to help you or give you information. Nurses not friendly or courteous. It sucked here. …
I would give zero stars if I could. I visited the ER in Feb 2020 and they could not help with my situation and turned me away. But still billed my insurance and for services I did not receive. They will not return my phone calls or give a …
This “Hospital” is a major joke. I showed up at midnight to the ER with a Severed finger and waited for four hours in the waiting room by myself, then, when their doctor got here, they figured we could do registration for the doc saw my …
This place doesnt deserve any star. My husband came in for a smashed thumb. We signed in at 8:30pm. Numerous people after him were seen and left. Then finally called him back at 11pm. No one saw him until 12am. I’ve sat out in the waiting …
Today I went in for a MRI. Shawn was very sweet, also the young lady that was working with him. It was the most pleasant MRI I ever had, and I have had a few. Thank you for all that you do!
When the dr is so arrogant and condescending that he makes you cry when you leave…there is a problem. …
Our son was injured during football practice and was rushed to Effingham ER. They took such tender care of him and could not have done a better job of easing his pain and helping him relax. We are so thankful for the ER team at Effingham Hospital!!!
I had my first initial visit with Dr. Toni Sylvester at the Women’s Health Center. She is amazing. She was so caring and explained everything so I could understand and took time with me. The entire staff there was excellent. I believe I made a great choice in seeing her.
I had outpatient surgery on my lumbar spine performed by Dr. Sofianos of Chatham Ortho. The support staff and nurses were well prepared, fast and efficient. Everything was clearly setup in a streamlined process and worked really well. I couldnt have had a better experience. Also, Instant relief!
My 8 year old daughter had to go to the Imaging Center on Goshen Rd in April. The facility was very clean and spotless. The staff was very friendly and professional. My daughter was very nervous about the procedure but the tech was great …
I came in to check my oxygen level. I was told to wait outside in the 90 degree heat. Pass out on the floor and was given a wheelchair to pass out on. After 6 hours of heat, I was put in a freezing room. Call twice for a blanket. I am still freezing.

My mother was admitted to this Hospital for treatment of pneumonia. The staff were very kind and helpful. They took the time to answer our questions and gave us daily updates on my mother’s progress. We will definitely be using this Hospital from now on for all of our healthcare needs.

This hospital treats people horribly. I was brought in via ambulance after a car accident with severe neck and upper back compression pain. My husband had to track someone down just so I could get a sip of water. I had to move myself for …
I have had the misfortune of being sent to this ER twice by the Quick med doctors because the didn’t have the equipment for CT/ultrasound. The doctors and NPs were horrible. I literally had one NP tell me, he is just here to make sure I’m …
If the only insurance you have is medicaid, expect a huge bill and no forewarning that you aren’t completely covered. Since I’m on disability, which barely covers my regular bills, there is absolutely no way I can ever pay these hospital …

I have received my blood work and mammograms for years at effingham health system.. And everyone has always been very professional and fast… I have never waited more than 20 minutes between registering and getting my test completed. Customer service is exceptional.. And this hospital is the cleanest hospital I have ever been in..

My husband and I brought our 4 month old who was suffering with a high fever. The staff went out of their way to help all of us feel comfortable and cared for. Everyone was warm, friendly and capable. We greatly appreciated their efforts and were thankful to be able to go home with a healthier baby.
Been sitting in the waiting room for 3 hours with 3 sick kids and 2 people have already walked out. Y’all have signs that say wait time could be 4-6 hours, that is completely ridiculous. Maybe one day this hospital will actually improve.

This place was clean and staff was absolutely fantastic, professional and friendly. If I need Emergency services again, this is where I will come.
4 hours plus in a waiting room. Doctors unable to figure anything out inside of an hour. Told to follow up with primary doctor. Guess next person needed the bed. Nurse staff very nice so that got the 2 stars.

Came to the hospital with my fiance. She has covid and is having shortness of breath. They had us wait in our car for over 6 hours. This is the slowest hospital I’ve ever been to. I wouldn’t recommend bringing even a animal here.

I was very impressed with the treatment I received in my time of need. Dr Post and his nursing staff were very helpful and professional. This is the first time in my life that an ER actually helped me and didnt dismiss my issues with “tylenol and heat pad” treatment. Much better now thanks to them!
Hands down the best ER experience I’ve ever had. From the woman who checked us in, to registration to the nurse and doctor, it’s been seamless. Dr. Marshall and RN Randy have been fabulous. Everyone has. Highly recommend this ER.

This review is based solely on the fact they will only let one person back with someone in the emergency room. The explanation given was” they just never changed it after covid”. This is ridiculous and unacceptable.
There for 3.5hrs “missed” my sons name (more like didn’t even put it in) meaning the 7 ppl who came in AFTER us were now IN FRONT of us!!!! Left without being seen bc 3.5hrs without even being seen in triage is absurd! Get it together !!!

Update: the doctor didn’t sign the prescription for my partners pain meds for post surgery (appendix removal) so we couldn’t get them. They then instead gave her Tylenol 3’s to deal with surgical pain. She’s still in pain and cant bear to …
I went yesterday for a minor surgical procedure. Everyone from the check in to the wheel out was incredibly nice and helpful! One nurse put my hair up for me to help put the cap on, each nurse talked with me and was so personable. I had a better experience here than at any of the big savannah hospitals.
It’s too bad 0 stars isn’t an option. This place is a joke if you’re seeking actual medical care for your loved one.

They need more than one doctor on staff. I arrived at 5:30 pm with my daughter. Waiting room was full. Was triaged right away but then sat for hours. After a little over 4 hours we were pulled back in a room to sit some more. As I look around I’m just not seeing any staff. It is now 10:00 pm and nobody has come back in our room.
