JFK Medical Center (FL) Reviews ( 250 )

  1. Discharge was not good. I waited all day with no information other than the fact that I was being discharged. The PT and OT were very good and consistent. Lots of menu choices.

  2. If i could give zero stars i would. I visited jfk hospital 7/16/2022 around 1230pm. When i walked into the main entrance, by the ER entrance, i was met with a security officer named shondra (if that is her real name). I walked up to the …

  3. As I’m sure is true with everyone, the concept of undergoing a surgical procedure causes emotional concern.
    The doctor & staff at HCA Florida JFK Hospital fully addressed this issue and …

  4. It seemed that this hospital is interested in getting their money rather than giving a good service. The doctor didn’t even checked me, and only made me wait 7 hours on a uncomfortable chair.

  5. My experience at wl hospital was very good, the treatment and attention of all the staff was excellent, from those who received me in the emergency to all the doctors and nurses in the room, they are spectacular and I congratulate them, I think they are the best team in the United States. Thanks for everything

  6. Processing was easy..
    The wait was 3 hours in the gurney. The attendance was spectacular. The MD staff was above and beyond. Not including the wait, JFK would have 5 stars.

  7. I would like to give a special thank you to Keisha Beaubrun. We all do surveys when it’s something bad this time it’s above normal. I had been sitting the ER for more than 4hrs. Keisha approached me asked had my information been taken. I …

  8. The HCA FL JRK Hospital management and staff are efficient, effective and professional. In short, they exceeded my expectations. I have had over 25 surgeries at several hospitals in my life and classify my recent experience at this hospital as the “Best of the Best”. Colonel Hinson

  9. Absolute worst ER experience of my life. I will NEVER go back. Doctor asking for my medical history in a waiting area, nurses making disgusting comments about not wanting to deal with serious emergency situations, bare minimum done for me with no conclusions…so many things were just awful.

  10. Overall a good experience. Had an issue of not receiving my treatments oin time and was ignored by Nurse when asking. This was only one shift, a busy shift.
    In contrast to that day, the prior day, many of the staff went above and beyond, even calling for help from other departments.

  11. This visit was a nightmare from the start. 35 hours in ER before getting a room. Then put on covid floor when I did not have covid. Then security comes in my room in middle of the night to tell me my car was illegally parked. First of all …

  12. I can’t say enough to express how wonderful the nurse who assisted my Dr. Was. Her kindness and communication made a scary time so much better. I can’t thank her enough.My Dr. Was amazing completely professional and I knew I was in skilled hands.

  13. The greeter who met me at the door was awesome (not security) she made me feel welcome and directed me to where I needed to go. The PET/CT staff were caring and very educational with my questions

  14. Everyone at the hospital were so professional, yet seem to really be concerned with my well being. In fact I was thrilled that I asked all parties involved with my stay that I have no room left on my red heart pillow for signatures. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart ❤️ Bob

  15. Worst ancillary/nursing staff I ever experienced in 60 yrs.
    The nursing staff was contemptuous, abusive, and dismissive.
    They tried to put me out to the curb 2 days after hip replacement even unable to …

  16. I would have given you a higher rating but due to the lack of information not let know that I could have drink water before my procedure which would allowed my veins to be hydrated and not cause me to suffer pain and discomfort for my IV

  17. I trully appreciated everyone on staff that took wonderful care of me Dr. Stiles is a Awesome and Amazing Doctor she treated me with great care and All the nurses on staff was excellent l have already shared my experience with others and …

  18. I think this hospital is one of the worst in Florida. People come to the hospital because they are sick and are treated worse thank wild animals. You sit in pain for hours in the Er before seen by a doctor. When you finally gets a room …

  19. Staff was great. Everyone was helpful and attentive. I had a revision knee surgery and it was my fourth surgery in 4 months but my 1st surgery at this hospital and this hospital was definitely superior to the 2 others

  20. When I arrived the receptionist greeted me in a very friendly manner. The doctor came out and took me back to discuss my MRI. She was terrific and very thorough. it was a pleasure going to this office.

  21. From ENTRY to EXIT, security, clerical, housekeeping, Staff Nurses, Nutrition, Transportation, Radiology, Preop, Recovery, Doctors, Nurses and everyone whom I have not identified their performance was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. Except for a …

  22. The care I received for my short stay was marvelous
    I was there for hip replacement surgery

  23. My surgery went well thank to God and the doctors in nurses, after my recovering now I’m in the floor morning shift are great but nights shift are bad they put the screen to sleep the one to see the names and the numbers to call click the …

  24. My experience in having an endoscope done at JFK was superb. The greeter was very pleasant and upbeat. Dr. Olowe and those who assisted him and the recovery room staff gave clear and concise information and they were patient, caring, and attentive. I am most grateful for the positive experience.

  25. Everyone I encountered during my visit was exceptionally nice, from the first person that greeted me, through the nurses and technicians. That was very positive, but the appearance of the facility needs improvement.

  26. The nursing staff on 2 North went above and beyond to get my mother back from what was a serious gallstone induced cluster of problems. Grateful to the doctors, PCA’s and to all who gave so generously of themselves in the pursuit of her recovery. Excellent and dedicated staff, well resourced hospital.

  27. Some of the staff was very helpful during my stay but then I was lead to believe I would be given more education and information if I stayed overnight. I was not given the proper education for my diagnosis and it felt like they rushed me to …

  28. Overall, I got treated well. There was only one nurse who i was not happy with at all. The last day I was there I had a nurse who honestly, I don’t feel she should have been in the care of others. She was extremely curt and not very …

  29. Our father had surgery there, the staff was really amazing! From the beginning almost to the ending.. The caseworker was the only issue. Our doctors office set all the after care up but the hospital sent their own people which caused a lot of confusion in the beginning after he left the hospital.

  30. The hospital has many fine and dedicated doctors and staff which treat you very well but there is a major flaw in the system. I arrived by ambulance at 9:30 in the morning, by 12:00 it was determined that I would be admitted – from then I …

  31. June 14,2022, My Father was in a terrible accident. We get to the hospital @6:45pm. He was taken back to a room and there was only 2 nurses waiting on all those people that were there. My father had blood all over from the glass, he hurt …

  32. Terrific personnel all doing quite well given the overcrowding and understaffed situation in the ER.
    While waiting 12+ hours to get a room in the hospital for a procedure the next …

  33. Great experience after a stress lab indicated possible abnormality in which the physician and staff were able to ensure that there no blockages. I was placed in a twilight stage and given local anesthesia for a radial catheter and given …

  34. Nurses were great from ER to on the floor. ER Doctor was very kind and understanding. Admitting doctor (in the ER and the doctor who would treat me on the floor after being admitted) was rude and condescending and dismissive. Definitely …

  35. It was my first time being hospitalized, never got sick, but we never have to say never; I it some treatments, The Doctor, she was great, the nurses were also fine. I was very happy, I was treated wonderful. Although I heard lots of bad …

  36. I moved from New York and had to change cardiologist. Unfortunately, I needed a triple bypass surgery. Besides the surgeon being fantastic, the nursing care was exceptional. The nurses took care of me before and after the surgery until I was released to go home. They really cared. I recommend this hospital to everyone.

  37. My mom was admitted to the hospital very late on a Wednesday and was discharged Saturday evening. She had exceptional care! Every single person, nurse, assistant, doctor, etc., were so kind and made her scary experience more bearable. She …

  38. I recently had a surgery in JFK Hospital. The doctors, nurses, and hospital staff from JFK Hospital are my true angels and they give me a new life. During my stay in JFK Hospital, I received so much love and professional care from the …

  39. They don’t even deserve a star I should leave a tombstone. JFK HOSPITAL KILLED MY MOM. From minor gallbladder surgery. They sent her home to die. For whatever reason this surgeon didn’t properly seal her ducts. She had a bio leak went …

  40. Really was a pleasant experience. You can tell they do these procedures all day but they still make sure each person is cared for and comfortable. Anthony and the male nurse leader (can’t remember his name) we’re great. They were personable …

  41. Overall, from the Pre Surgery visit until the surgery was completed, every single person I interfaced with was outstanding! Everyone had a very pleasant attitude and were focused on helping me in anyway they could. The entire staff …

  42. I am a nurse for 40 years. I was highly impressed, with the nursing staff. They were kind, knowledgeable, efficient and caring. This was my first visit to JFK. I refused to go to Delray Medical Center due to a horrible experience on …

  43. Im currently here at jfk hospital I have been in this room since 5 pm. The photo u see is the previous patient. The transportation guy that brought me up made complaints that the room wasn’t even cleaned before me. I came in for …

  44. Jennifer M in the surgical waiting room made me feel at ease and walked me thru my mom procedure with a caring attitude and I would highly recommend JFK because of her

  45. The resident that did surgery on me in my room. That was very painful. The surgical staff agreed with me that he should have never performed this in my room and should have put me under before cutting me. …

  46. Worst experience of my entire life…. Staff was so rude. They tried giving me morphine without getting any medical history on me. I cannot have morphine or I could die. They forgot about me and I was in the waiting room for over 6 hours. Unbelievable

  47. Great Experience, thanks so much to all the employees at this hospital from administration to the nurses and Doctors you made my first procedure ever an unforgettable experience people do care here.

  48. My father was discharge today .The nurse Renata and PCA Gina was so sweet and made us.feel comfortables during the stay also Dr Elpedes took the time to explain all our questions
    Thank you

  49. I was on a gurney for 30 hour in the ER They are short staffed and the nurses-are asked to take care of too many patients in the ER.
    It was a horrible experience. I would not ever recommend JFK to anyone.

  50. Very understaffed,was stuck in ER for almost 24 hours in the waiting room and a exam room which was freezing. I was in for a possible aneurysm ordered there by my Doctor to be seen by neurologist and did not see one for 2days!

  51. Jennifer M. In surgical waiting room is fantastic. Kept me up to date of all going on with my husband. She has a wonderful personality. Perfect for this position with JKK. …

  52. Ms Jennifer in the surgery waiting room second floor was so wonderful and helpful she was a real pleasure to have in my time of need wish there were more of her in all the hospitals in America just a beautiful spirit ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

  53. I am a person who has a strong dislike for hospitals and even going to the Dr. but the whole entire staff made breaking my arm as pleasurable as possible. Thank you all for your amazing treatment.

  54. There was not one person who entered my room or were any part of my care, including transportation around the hospital that was not nice and professional. A truly well run facility with quality individuals.

  55. Very courteous professional and all around accommodating to needs made the hospital experience much more bearable than the usual experience I will choose JFK Hospital over any other in the area for my medical needs wants and cares

  56. I was scheduled for a Monday ablation and did Friday Pre Op Testing. I had already paid for the procedure. No one on Friday mentioned any issue with the Doctor’s office not returning calls for Insurance coding issues. So on Monday I sat in the lobby for an hour waiting for this, which never happened and the procedure was cancelled

  57. Very happy with the care my wife was recently provided with while at JFK. The staff were professional and courteous at all times. We could not have asked for better care

  58. If you pay attention when you go. You can tell they are disorganized and not an ideal place to go for the best health care. I do not recommend. Are the people working there smart? Yes, but the hospital is not run properly.

  59. Refreshingly kind, courteous, and professional staff. Best interaction I’ve had with the medical profession in years. The process from admission to discharge was a pleasure.

  60. The doctors and nurses were wonderful, caring and helpful. My negative issues are that the hospital is understaffed and don’t have enough help to give the patients the time that they need.

  61. My brother is currently in this hospital in room 3136. He spent almost 20 hours in your emergency room with chest pain and having trouble breathing under respiratory distress. Now he’s being told by a nurse that he has tuberculosis. Which …

  62. No Obgyn in emergency room , drs did a horrible job with testing for my children and told me that they weee fine even though they were having trouble breathing and other extreme symptoms. I was in a lot of pain and peeing blood . The drs said it was normal 😪 …

  63. My experience @ JFK was awesome, I enjoyed every moment of my time spent @JFK, everyone was so nice it’s like being with Family, thanks again JFK for a wonderful experience.

  64. Hospital is great. Dr that you have to have as care dr (not your specialist) the ones that come in a check you daily leave a lot to desire. I call them dr quack and his ducklings. Dr quack stands around with his hands in his pockets or …

  65. Chris in the pre surgery area was calming helpful kind and reassuring during our pre surgery experience at jfk. Jennifer in the surgery waiting room was delightful and helpful and went out of her way to help me. Thanks so much to both …

  66. The Pre-Op and Post op was very good. The recovery at home was awful, headache and throwing up, it felt like I was given a cheap anesthesia. The hospital NEVER call to follow up on me, up until this day, I still have my stiches. It was …

  67. Amazing experience with my grandmother, who could not have asked for better care during her stay at JFK. Everyone from the physicians, to the nursing staff, to the housekeeping staff was incredible. 5-stars!

  69. This is the worst experience I have ever had at a hospital in my 66 years of life!!!! Let me also say I have been a nurse since 1996 & have never been treated as badly as I was in your hospital!!!! I don’t know if I have enough room to …

  70. I received services from the Wound Care Center from 10/4 – 25/22. I had 3 appointments. I was always taken on my appointed time, if not earlier. I felt I received excellent care and would like to commend Juan Sardina DPM.MS, Gleida Pulido RN and Sariata Alaba Oluwo RN,WCC for their care.

  71. 4 days in the facility, saw a doctor for maybe 3 minutes, did numerous tests, never gave me results or a diagnosis, was supposed to be referred to a specialist, waited 2 days and found out the floor Dr. never made the referral and then she …

  72. No Patient Advocates, No Clear way of alerting senior staff of what I observed. Er Dept, CT dept, triage area The BEST in the field. In pt floors. Know your RIGHTS as a pt. Many times attempted to contact someone with concerns I witnessed to no avail.

  73. Had cellulitis severe pain & swelling. Was seen, diagnosed and meds administered quicker than the registration. Super efficient and professional. Most importantly they were correct. Renews my faith in ER.

  74. Best staff! I really appreciate a nurse named, Renata! She went above & beyond taking care of my 99 yr old grandfather! Special thanks, to all the staff as well!

  75. Jennifer in the Surgical Recovery room was so AWESOME! She made all the guests in waiting room feel welcomed and she kept us entrained and laughing which does lighten the stressful mood of waiting for your loved ones to get out of surgery.

  76. I, was left on the stretcher for the longest with out a blanket or pillow. The nurse that tried too start my IV was unable too get it. She told me that she was coming back to clean up and get the blood from my hand which she didn’t do. So …

  77. Got here at 430am with my mother with possible stroke and they ran tests which came out clear and then they said she was gonna be admitted but 6 hrs later still waiting. No nurse checking in and staff at desk constantly talking about their personal issues. So unprofessional! First and last time at this place.

  79. The medical personnel were fine. Getting a ride home on a Friday night after 8:00pm was awful. No taxis would come and finally after trying every taxi # given to and after calling friends etc. A wonderful security guard called an UBER from …

  80. So far, we’re over 24 hours of NOT FEEDING a 95yo woman because the GI doctor assigned was going to do a procedure YESTERDAY MORNING and then vanished. I’m no Karen, but surely there’s more than one GI doctor affiliated with this place! …

  81. My nurse, Sariata RN, from the JFK Wound Care Center has done a fantastic job and is very encouraging in dealing with with a wound that occurred several months ago. We’ve gotten to the point where the size of the wound has gotten to about half of it’s largest size.

  82. I have to give a 1 star and that goes to whomever is the receiving nurse that takes your vitals in the E.R. I came in with excruciating pain and the male nurse that took me to the back was absolutely disrespectful and rude. Began mimicking …

  83. It’s difficult to be generous with stars when the physician caring for me became indignant when a family member pointed out the errors the hospitalist made in recording my medical history, or writing a physical exam that did not reflect …

  84. Most times myself or my fiancé have needed help urgently, JFK has been wonderful. Wait times vary, and some of the doctors are judge mental and rude, but I got a stomach bug and Dr. Harris was wonderful. I HATE needles and they got me on …

  85. From the emergency room through my 3 day-stay in the hospital on the cardiac floor for Afib and exteme anemia, the staff was caring, professional, knowledgeable and considerate. Nurses Josephine and Johanna were exemplary and patiently answered my many questions since this was all new to me.

  86. I’m 41 years of age i used to be in perfect health. I’m at this JFK hospital as I type this Post. I’ve been on a decline ever since my second shot of the moderna covid vaccine. But for the past two weeks I cannot function! …

  87. Wow. I started writing a long paragraph about my experience at both the JFK Hospital and my experience one week earlier at the Boynton Beach location and erased it. Here I go. I ended up seeing the same dopy doctor (Patrick Davison), …

  88. the nurses were fine but the noise from the big trucks parked outside from 12-2 AM was horrible. I could not sleep and had to put earpods in my ears just to get some rest. I also don’t understand why the nurses had to put information on …

  89. Jennifer Morales in the surgical waiting room took incredible care of us! She brought such a positive energy to us in a stressful situation of waiting for a loved one to come out of surgery and helped us with everything we needed.

  90. My experience was in the ER. They don’t even deserve the 1star. If you have no available beds and are completely full then you shouldn’t tell patients who are severely sick and elderly that you’re going to admit them and take their money, …

  91. Outstanding medical and nursing care all the way from ER, to ICU, to inpatient psychiatric care. I was so impressed by everyone’s friendly and caring ways! I am an RN and I haven’t seen this high level of acute care in many years. Thank you so much to everyone at JFKMC!

  92. Absolutely atrocious, disheartening, and painfully bad experience in the ER at 6:00 PM on a Monday. Total of 3.5 hours after passing through triage and pulling blood for labs sitting in extremely crowded “sub way” waiting room areas with an …

  93. My mom got a heart valve replacement and all the team were very kind with her and with me & my family. Surgery was a total success, my gratitudes to Dr Noris and his surgical team and Ms Marisol , Ms Jennifer M from the waiting room.

  94. I hope to never step foot in this hospital…nurse was very rude didn’t even introduce herself, she would come in the room as if I’m invisible just did whatever she was doing and leave. Never again. I was suffering from migraine I ask her to stop turning on the lights she didn’t care one bit.

  95. Zachary RN in the ER should be terminated for his poor performance and lack of empathy or compassion for his patient. My neighbors were horrified to learn that I had been taken to this hospital. They offered to come get me and take me to Good Sam.

  96. Took my daughter to the ER because she hurt her hand at work and wanted to make sure it wasn’t broken. We both felt that this was the best ER visit we ever had. She was called in pretty quickly. I wish I had everyone’s name that saw her …

  97. Amazing staff! Everyone from the person who made my appointment to the people in the hallway were so kind. Amazing experience for my first mammogram. So glad I went here.

  98. I have had two visits to JFK Hospital recently. The first for a Cardiac Ablation and the recent for a Pacemaker to be inserted. Both visits were excellent. The care and attention was first rate.

  99. JFK parking lot is no picnic, but when I entered the Rothman Building the check in process was very smooth and simple. The
    tech that did my echo cardiogram was pleasant and professional, all anyone could ask for.

  106. It was absolutely the worst hospital I’ve ever been in in my life. The doctors who I didn’t see that often were adequate, however the support staff was terrible. Very rarely. Would anybody respond when I hit the call button. The nurses …

  107. Well my mom have had three thoracentesis done here. The first two were fine. The third one, they told me she was fine and we were good to go. We left the hospital at 1230. Almost four hrs from the time we left the Dr called and said he got …

  115. There are staffing and communication shortages (issues) since JFK changed to HCA. Examples: I had to wait for over an hour for a procedure due to staff shortages and, when I was sent a text and email asking me to contact them for a follow …

  116. Most of the Nurses, PCAs,Cleaning crew, Dietitian dept really do care. Feel like I’m not being heard adequately about my own health, as if I’m being overlooked by top physicians though. If you think you have a womens health issue, don’t …

  119. I went to JFK for cancer radiation treatment. Everyone I delt with was wonderful – nurses, doctors, technicians. No one wants to go to the hospital but if given the choice again, I would pick JFK. They took good care of me.

  120. This is the worst hospital i have ever been a patient in. ICU handled things very well but after being transferred out of that unit the quality of care went rapidly downhill. I never received my dinner tonight because for some reason they …

  121. Unfortunately I got so disappointed with the care I received from JFK hospital, they didn’t care for me, no communication, no specialist bust, just every morning their team members showed up for a minute or two, and hospital doctor for a …

  127. I cant complain for the professional care as far as the Drs and some of the nurses that provided my son care. There was this nurse leader by the name of Yvette (3rd fl North). She even took a nose swab from my son very unprofessional she …

  141. It’s so unfortunately that if you don’t have a family member to advocate for you than you are left ignored because you don’t speak English . People get admitted with hopes to not return. Not just to get stabilized and release with the …

  142. The hospital is clean and everyone is caring and helpful. The physicians and nurses are incredibly kind. The staff at JFK has always taken great care of my loved ones. Thank you for all that you do.

  143. Went in for pain and swelling in my right calf. Nurse practitioner and doctor were prompt and very professional. After doing an ultrasound they described what they found, printed me out the report and referred me to an orthopedic doctor on the JFK campus whom I saw yesterday and who is treating me. The doctor was great too.

  144. I received prompt attention when I arrived. The doctors, nurses, and other medical technicians were friendly and engaging. Everyone did a great job of explaining my diagnosis and treatment plan.

  145. The staff was amazing. Larissa, the prep nurse was as kind and proficient as we could ask. Kate, the OR nurse was extremely informative. I forget the name of the anesthesia nurse, but, she too was top of the line.

  152. My special needs sister, who also has colorectal cancer, was brought to this hospital TWICE…and that will be the LAST time. While the attending nurses were very good, the administration and doctors are sub-par. They could not coordinate …

  153. Having your employees call while still in the room recovering from surgery for payment is unacceptable, do better for your employees. You’re putting your employees in tough situations and it’s not right. Send a bill or have them visit upon discharge if you need the money that bad. The Nurses and Doctors I had were awesome!

  158. I was taken care of very well during my stay. The nursing staff saw to it that my requests for a medication that the doctor did not prescribe was taken care of in a timely manner. The food was very good and was prepared very well. All in all my experience at HCA Florida JFK Hospital was better than I expected.

  159. The emergency service was good but after they took me to the floor everything was horrible, the treatment by the nurses and head nurses was very bad, racist people, they did not offer information or support in a good way, bad looks, in no …

  160. I ended up there after a nasty tumble. The doctor didn’t have any bed manners. He never even examined me. I was in excruciating pain and they wanted to give me Tylenol then just gave me a prescription. I had blood on my legs, elbows and …

  161. 7 days after my colonoscopy I still don’t know the results of the biopsy yet.
