  6. I went for a CT scan of my back because I recently had back surgery. I had a difficult time getting off the table but the attendant helped me. On the way back to the waiting area, I fell. The attendant was about 10 ft. in front of me. I feel as a safety issue, he should have stayed beside me since I was limping.

  7. Was in for severe asthma, copd and pneumonia. I was given a shot of steroids in the ER and admitted. They never put me on IV steroids the whole time I was there, which is always what I need everytime this happens. The main reason I had …

  18. To any who read this “Beware” the incompetent and un-professional staff.. They forgot to send the test report to my doctor. I discovered this weeks later, but how many ppl has this hospital killed because of errors like this?

    After the CT scan I had to go back for more CT scan. It took about 4 hrs instead of an hour.

  112. I prechecked in so check in was easy. The most difficult part was the walk up the hill from the parking lot, as there is not enough handicapped parking and they no longer have a shuttle from the lot.

  113. This was my first encounter at this hospital. I went through registration for my test; was treated respectfully and cheerfully before, during, and after the procedure.

  114. overall it was ok , but how can you as a hospital when i come to you for my outpatient services for my dr to do my pre opp stuff say to me that you can do one test and not the other, sending me all over the county that day just to get my labs done .

  119. Like every other woman, I absolutely hate mammograms and haven’t had one in 20 years. I was impressed with HCA. The nurse made it a painless procedure and explained things I needed to understand. Thank you.

  120. Was good till last night. Then the tech that was on at 3:30 AM decided to use the office chair as a roller skate spinning and rolling through the halls. Not very professional and pretty noisy. Hard enough to get sleep in the hospital …

  139. Horrible. They never hooked me up to the blood pressure monitor. I had constant indigestion. When my sister in law went to Shands with the same symptoms, she had 2 stents put in. It was terrible service. They did an ultrasound to gallbladder and that was it.

  140. I was admitted to the orthopedic unit for surgery on my spine, C3 thru C7. I was introduced to all those who would be in the OR during the surgery. The care I received was so far above what I would call normal that if there was a 6th or 7th star I would fill that in, too.

  141. Very polite employees, very clean facility, no long wait.. My appointment was scheduled for 3:30 pm, I arrived at 3:00 pm, checked in, did paperwork on tablet, 3:25 m Tech came to get me, did my test and done before 3:45 pm… My kind of appointment In and Out…🥰❤️ …

  142. The Registering/Pre-Op RN, Melanie, was joy to have! She was very knowledgeable, caring and sympathetic when we were discussing my procedures and my previous procedures at HCA. Keep up the great work!

  143. Mother had RKA on Orthopedic wing. Best hospital experience she has had in her 80 years +. Dr. Alvarez,his staff and Hospital staff were kind, knowledgeable, skilled, patient, accommodating.

  144. Nursing staff was great! Didn’t feel like the Dr put much effort into finding out what was wrong…very old school type Dr …still having issues…
    EDIT: Went here a couple times in July due to extreme pain in my back and …

  145. I presented to the ER with complaints of abdominal pain, nausea, intermittent vomiting, and a history of gallstones. After a battery of tests I was informed that “Your tests are fine. There is nothing wrong with you and you are being …

  146. This was a great experience for my mother, Florence Olsen. Her ultrasound tech Rob was amazing, very caring and gentle, and took his time and explained some things to us which was very nice.

  147. The appointment was a little bit later than anticipated, but everything went well and love the fact that you don’t undress in a different room to have a mammogram.

  148. I have QUITE A FEW NEGATIVES to share!!!!!
    #1 DOCTOR—-SRIDEVI MANGINANI MD should NOT be allowed at Highlands Hospital!!!!! I went to the ER 8/31 and was admitted for ACUTE DIVERTICULITIS after a CT …

  149. I went into ER due to leg pain and needing medicine for parasite infection. Didn’t know if the two were related and explained both to the dr. No blood work was done and I was given 2 shots for strained hip and meds. Told to see my …

  150. HCA Florida Highlands Hospital for Outpatient surgery. I was treated by a very professional , caring and experienced staff. I was contacted by the team after my procedure to see how I was and if I needed anything. I would highly recommend them!

  151. My experience was frustrating, to say the least. I made an appointment for bloodwork. The day before my appt. I was told my insurance was invalid and that my appt. was cancelled. After 3 phone calls to straighten out the problem, with no …

  152. Best hospital ever been to and we’ve been to many over the years. Staff amazing, food amazing, Drs amazing rooms beautiful and roomy and up to date with all!!! Highly recommended! Anyone looking for surgery this is it!

  153. Had a Cardiac Cath performed last week. Through the wrist was the most painful thing I’ve experienced in my 69 years on the planet. I wish my brain was more numb than it was. There should have been a follow-up call the following day when …

  154. I have never been hospitalized and MORE like a person and not a number !
    From registering to hospital stay and all medical staff – I felt so blessed
    My only complaint and it’s minor , is that the lab techs that came in when I was post surgery, at 3:00 AM could have introduced themselves better !

  155. The main problem here is that they make you feel as if they just couldn’t care less, been here 4 hours now. No one comes out and says anything at all about how long it might be, when I asked the person at the desk they said they had no …

  156. The staff was outstanding, however the equipment is dated. I have fibrocystic breast disease and a family history of breast cancer. I will not return to this facility for any breast exams in the future unless the mammogram equipment has been updated.

  157. Dr. Alvarez is wonderful! His whole team is great too. I had both knees replaced with two surgeries, only 4 weeks apart. So I got to experience their care twice. And it was above par. Everything worked like a well-oiled machine. They put …

  158. Wow ! Excellent services. The nurses are so amazing. I was in the Orthopedic Services during my gastric sleeve stay and I no have complaint from the hospital and the staff. 10 stars

  159. All the staff was friendly and caring. Got me in early for my ultrasound instead of having to wait an hour and a half between tests. Staff also made sure I knew where I was going and helped me navigate there.

  160. I did NOT visit the Hospital. I was treated off-site by Dr. Glexy Pasion, and she did an outstanding job of treating me for and curing me of Vertigo. The Office Manager, Patricia, also was a true joy of courtesy, efficiency, and genuine concern for the patients.

  161. My husband had spinal surgery and the nurses, doctor, and staff was amazing. Any questions we had they always answered. A huge thank you to Chelsey, Carolyn, Monica, Raffy, Herminis, Jan, Dr. Kimber, pre and post op nurses. We can truly say it has been our best experience – my husband never felt like his was just a room number.

  162. In the emergency room when doctor requested I stay overnight for observation the admission rep tried to have me decide to go home telling me her opinion based on looking over chart suggest I don’t need to be there. She was extremly rude …

  163. This hospital is my go to for absolutely everything! The level of care provided by all staff members is second to none. From PAS to the ED. Everyone always has the right attitude and more than willing to go above and beyond for all visitors and patients.

  164. They was super nice but didn’t even treat what I went in for. I was mad cause it’s been happening for almost a year now and all they did was tell me to take pain medicine for it. They also ended up giving me the wrong subscription and …

  165. I arrived for a V.A. C&P scheduled exam. At check-in I was told that I could not be registered because the M.D. that signed my order was not licensed in FL. I left and then returned after taking to V.A. They then faxed a new order from a …

  166. This visit was for my annual mammogram, as usual it was made simple. Check in, wait a few minutes, get it done and go home. The staff was very kind and friendly and made the experience much more comfortable.

  167. Let me start off by saying that I don’t generally like to leave less than favorable reviews. Unfortunately I feel I need to address a couple of issues. This is the third time I’ve been asked about my hospital stay at your facility. The …

  168. Very professional and the MrI tech was wonderful . The only thing right after in went to the ER for a broken finger that happened right before the MRI at my home . The front desk guy that was doing intake was rude and obnoxious. He was …

  169. Did not have a ‘great’ experience. I left in (almost) as much pain as when I first arrived. Doctor not a good listener, or communicator. Pain med he ordered did not really work. He was very nonchalant about it, and how I felt. The RX nurse was nice & efficient, as were the others I interacted with.

  170. I was recently seen in the ER for a leg issue. Apparently I have a sprained left knee. Everyone was very professional and efficient. All staff were very kind and made me feel confident of their care. I will follow up with Dr. Chaudri’s on Dec 8, 2022.

  171. While handicapped parking seems sufficient, the location of the majority of these priority spaces are rather a long travel distance from the front door (not all handicapped patients have the luxury of being dropped of at the front door). …

  172. Everyone, including security were ever so kind. I just came in for x-rays. But, not only did I receive much kindness but, others around me, as well. One fella in particular came for some radiology and he was in awful distress and pain. …

  173. If you have to have orthopedic surgery, Florida Highlands Hospital is the place you want to go. You are treated like you are special and the whole staff is friendly, personable and caring. My husband was given special treatment as well. First class all the way.

  174. I had a very nice experience at HCA, everyone was very professional and courteous in getting me ready for surgery.
    The Doctor was also proficient and did a great job in explaining
    and then doing exactly what he said he would do.

  175. The actual process was smooth, and the phlebotomist was very good and pleasant. It was a STAT request, done on a Friday afternoon, but the doctor’s office had to call for the results Monday morning so I could proceed with my treatment. Not …

  176. Excellent pre- and postop care! They care about the patient and his or her particular needs. Am so glad I have chosen this hospital for 3 operations, all endoscopic, outpatient surgeries. Absolutely beautiful, new senior surgery room!! I absolutely felt pampered as a patient–such calm and neat nurses!

  177. My husband had to have a surgical procedure. This was the first time we have gone to HCA Florida Highlands Hospital. We were very pleased with his care. Everyone was friendly, professional, and helpful. We would recommend this hospital for your needs.

  178. While everyone was nice to me there, it became clear after after over 2 1/2 hours of unsuccessful attempts to lower my heart rate with extra doses of my Beta Blocker, that my heart rate was going to stay stuck at 75/76, and the CT Scan of …

  179. My husband has been admitted to the hospital once before. Tge staff was excellent. Attentive and caring. He had great care from the doctors as well. Treated and discharged home in a few days for kidney stones.

  180. The ER department was great. I arrived in pain, and was treated immediately. The ER doctor came out right away, to ask me questions, and I was back in a room almost immediately. The nurses in there were great, and very professional. They …

  181. Once we got in the hospital the care was excellent. We had a negative experience the day before our recorded visit as we sat in the ER for 3 hours and finally left. The staff (male) kept his mask below his mouth and covered his mouth when …

  182. I was at the emergency room at 10:00 pm, on a Saturday night with a minor cat bite. My wait time was less than 20 minutes and I received speedy and great treatment. I was out in less than an hour. I am very pleased and happy with this experience. GOOD job!!

  183. Everyone was very nice and helpful. Especially the technicians during my CT scan and the doctor that did the spinal tap and the nurse that took care of me after the procedure. I was very pleased with the level of care I received. The gentleman that checked me in was very helpful and kind.

  184. The emergency room was incredibly crowded with an 8 hour wait. The staff did te best they could with the chaotic environment. it was caring people like Tony, the radiologist., who helped make the wait more tolerable. Dr Oliver manipulated …

  185. I was very pleased with my HCA experience. Dr Alveraz time were very professional and treated me as a person loves to be treated.
    Monica on the orthopedic floor was the best. I have never had a better nurse. …

  186. Husband had Orthopedic surgery in November. Facility was very nice & clean. Care we got from the staff was superior!! I’m bad with names but I think our nurse was Monica she took excellent care of my husband and went above and beyond to make sure he had everything we needed before we left the hospital.

  187. My daughter had to have labs and a Radiology exam done yesterday. The staff was absolutely amazing. The outpatient lab Sha’Ron was very patient and compassionate. While Rod in Radiology was also amazing and he explained everything and what …

  188. The ER team was great! My nurse Dan made sure I was comfortable at all times and that I had everything I needed. My tech Brittany did a great job allowing me not to put much pressure on the injured leg. Overall had a great experience and would definitely go back

  189. I couldn’t have asked for better care. Dr. Alvarez was wonderful. Staff was unrivaled in competence, efficiency, and caring attitude. The orthopedic floor is pristine and attractive. The food was really good. What else can I say? I recommend it for anyone having orthopedic surgery.

  190. I came here to get a total knee replacement and was blown away by the service. From the moment I walked through the doors I was treated kindly and taken care of. The orthopedic floor was incredible. Every nurse was caring and kind. The …

  191. I have had a couple of procedures done at Florida Highlands and I have to say, these nurses, doctors, and staff are the nicest, kindest people I have encountered at a hospital! They take time with you to make sure you understand about the …

  192. The nursing staff was really great. They made sure I was comfortable and were very professional. The doctor however spent very little time with me. Didn’t really explain how I was improving and never shared my test results. Next thing I knew I was being discharged. Overall I was happy with the care I received.

  193. The staff was great, as were the doctors. Great care. Fast service. From ER to ICU to home in under 24hrs. We were well taken care of (my husband as the patient and myself and the concerned family member). …

  194. Without a doubt the most discusting, dirty, hospital I have ever been in. The bathroom with absolutely filthy, the floors had gunk built up in the corners and just dirt and debris on the floor. The toilet had a black filth ring that had to …

  195. Amazing hospital. Went in the ER with broken foot. From the gentleman at intake to the nurses and x-ray tech I was genuinely cared for. I’m new to the area. THIS WILL BE MY GO TO HOSPITAL!
