This rating is specifically for the Pallative Care Unit. Amy and her team were a wonderful resource for our family as we dealt with the loss of our mother/grandmother. We are grateful for their skill, compassion and support through a most difficult time.
Came here to get my wrist checked out. Went thru the ER and they put me on fast track. I get to the front desk of fast track and sat and waited for my name to be called. A nice lady came to take my vitals she then sent me to another young …
Was on vacation and went in with a broken jaw and was told that is was fractured in 4 places after a CT scan, despite the fact that I could physically feel fully broken bones inside my mouth with my tongue. My chin was stitched up without …
Save yourself time, money and have a more qualified professional work on you at Watson Clinic or literally any other critical care facility in Lakeland. The Staff are slow and care more about their social media than patients. A specialist …
The hospital itself is wonderful but to try to call in or to be connected to a patient’s room has to be the most nerve racking experience, again and again and again. It would help if they hired operators that were actually friendly and also knew how to spell. I found myself driving there faster than getting help on the phone
The Staff dragged their feet when i needed to be seen when the clinic was completely empty. so called nurses would rather talk to their co workers rather than trying to get patients out the door as quick as possible. Lakeland regional …
Worst hospital ever my husband her and he been waiting 24 hours for a CT and they pumped him with pills without feeding him because waiting so long on the test. We are always in overflow. And seem there patients are only a number. Never again. I will never recommend.
I would like to thank Kim, Martha,Steve and Linda for taking very good care of me in the Cath Lab. I went to Cath Lab for my pre surgery blood work, was at the wrong place and one of the Nurses took the time to take me to the right place to …
The hospital was okay, the staff was kind of rude. My friend was in the emergency room and I had my car valet so I could get him a few things to stay overnight. When I got my car back a few of my belongings including money was stolen out of …
The experience at the new carol Jenkins bldg. was a very bad experience the some of the nurses were very mean to my wife. And when she was moved to 8 th floor on main wing she was treated a lot better. People on main side were so nice and compassionate.
My mom has been in Lakeland as a patient for 2 weeks do to heart surgery, security at front desk named Louis was very rude and had a nasty attitude one pca who was on my moms floor was extremely impatient and rude also(they should check who …
Services at LRH are okay, but not great. I received reasonable care from the ER department recently, but Tampa General is far, FAR, FAR better–in staff, services, quality, and overall care. Lakeland Regional’s billing department is …
Take a look at the reviews being left about this place. Full of grammatical errors, swear words, words not spelled right (e.g. “upmost” and “ex-ray”) complaints about not being waited on hand and foot, and people who didn’t have …
The emergency room is full of quack doctors that have absolutely no idea what they are doing. They have no medical experience and have no business being anywhere near a hospital. One of the EMS drivers even said it was filled with a bunch …
No Handicap Parking, Not ADA compliant and they charge for parking instead of providing parking.
I am handicap with a heart condition and physical disabilities and I have a …
Friendly helpful staff. Great valet parking service. The hospital staff listen to concerns and try to be as helpful as possible even with difficult trying patients. They respect patient privacy and do follow-up to help patients follow …
Rudest staff I’ve ever met. The front desk were nice but the nurse an doctor were so rude. This is a children hospital and they y’all to people with no type of sympathy, super sarcastic. First and last time I will ever visit this hospital.
I have to share this because these nurses were awesome. I had surgery on January 14 with some complications ended up spending close to 10 hours in the recovery room .my 3 nurses Suzan nichole and meagan were awesome and I really feel it was …
Emergency Room uninsured patients don’t come here, the ER staff is either uninformed or deceptive when it comes to billing questions. I went there in need of stitches for my mouth and head. The local pain clinic would not do my oral …
This hospital is they worse. I have never been so upset sitting in the emergency room. This the second time I’ve been there and i advise everyone to not come here. I wouldn’t trust them with my life nor my daughters. Never again will i step foot in there.
I had both my sons here and stayed in the labor and delivery. I absolutely LOVED the nurses and Drs that helped bring my sons into the world. They have a wonderful staff and the rooms are comfortable. My only complaint would be the old tvs. The cafeteria is one of the best I’ve ever seen in a hospital.
Just the worst experience at LMRC’s ER last night 03/10/2020. Sat in the ER for 4-1/2 hours and never got in to see a doctor or even a nurse practitioner. Never made it out of the waiting area. Triage was non existent and staff just blamed …

Very disappointed in nurse service this morning. Upon arrival i was immediately taken to my room which then i waited 25 mins before i called nurses station. After the lady came to check on me she told me someone would be in shortly. Shortly …
Worst care ever in the emergency room. The place was filthy and they left vials of blood on a tray a long with the needle tubing. Placed a iv bag on my husband when they knew he was waiting on his discharge paperwork so they could change …
My husband went to the hospital with chest pains in 2015. He waited for a doctor in the ER for almost 5 hours. After that he was admitted and was not able to eat for three days because they kept putting off test. When he went down for a MRI …
I guess it is all how you look at it, I came in with my sister for chest pain, after we were taken to the back area, 4 nurse’s showed up all at once, all seemed to be doing a different task, at first I was overwhelmed, but then one nurse …
I had mixed experiences at this Hospital, all of them were bad until 2 weeks ago when I went to the emergency room for having crippling stomach pains. I’ve experienced this pain before in Jacksonville and the hospital they’re did nothing …

I was sent to emergency and received 1st class service. I was in the process of having a heart attack and needless to say they did everything possible to get me taken care of. They were really nice and deeply and genuinely concerned for my …
I’d give less than 1 star if possible. I had gone to see my ex boyfriend who had dementia..He looked like he hadn’t been shaved in a week or so.. I was used to shaving him.. the longer you waited .. the tougher it was to shave him. I had …
One of the worst experiences I’ve ever had in a hospital. After arriving in the ER with chest pain, initial diagnosis through a cat scan was a GI problem. The staff then spent the next 24 hours performing every test under the Sun, most of …

My son came in the ER with server pain in his side. Others came in after him with sore throat and coughs. They made him stay in the waiting over two hours in a lot of pain and throwing up. The ones with the sore throat and coughs were …
They have a special children’s emergency entrance. Colorful rooms, attentive personnel, color changing lights, large screen television plus a foldout couchto sleep on while your child is there. The nurses and staff help take the fear out of being in a hospital for the children.
What this hospital did to me was terrible. I’ve been in recovery five years which I take very seriously and now come to find out im pregnant I just moved here and ran out my prescription which is very serious for me to have or I’ll get sick …
One star because the nurses here are actually pretty hard workers and take care of people to the best of their ability even though they are constantly under staffed. The doctors will NOT attempt to look into your issues. If they give you …

They’ve grown too large and are too disconnected. One area doesn’t know what the other is doing. Too many departments contracted out. They lost my loved one’s personal belongings not once, but twice! They failed to transfer on another …
I’ve been waiting here over 2 hours in the waiting area and still no room or help. They are slow and act like they don’t care. Never again I rather go to winter Haven emergency where they take care of you and in a fast pace

Very good service was in the ER and nurses were very nice and knowledgeable. One thing I think all hospitals not just this one I think they should have is a menu of the cost of the services they provide so patients are not double guessing …
Seen Dr Schillinger in ER for abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, itchiness, etc…he came in and asked what was going on. I told him that I have Crohn’s and he said “So this isn’t Crohn’s flare?” I said “it’s different” so he said “then …

Absolutely horrible place to go. It’s hot and they don’t care about you. Ive never in my entire life have been forced to sit in such pain for so long! 48 hours over the weekend until they could get me into surgery. So I sat there in their …
Had an outpatient procedure. The surgery center opens at 5:30 so if they tell you 5;00 you will sit in the parking lot. Once in the facility the people are very professional. Shout out to Carrie for her professionalism and for making you feel at home. I would highly recommend this facility and all the people there
Worst hospital I have ever been to and after this latest “misdiagnosis”, I’m done with this place. The ER nurses are rude and condescending, the hospitalist haven’t a clue what they are doing and non-conformity of the rules and regulations …

I was here in August, the ER “dr” accused me being an alcoholic because my red blood cells were enlarged (found out by my PCP was low vitamin b12 [dr. Christopher]). This “hospital” has nearly 0 parking for the ER department. Never coming here again.
I’m wondering if your administration feels they are doing their part to mitigate the rampant spread of covid in our community when you have unvaccinated nurses caring directly for covid positive patients. I’m aware vaccinated nurses could …
I was seen quickly and treated just as fast. I had an emergency appendectomy. The nurses and doctors testing were amazing. The only reason why I did not give a 5 star rating is because at shift change, the night shift nurses and CNA were …
This was my second visit to the Emergency Room in two years and I have nothing but great things to say about the staff, ER physicians and the cleanliness of the facility. The ER physician that treated me on October 6th was professional and …

Hospital and every facility contained
Therein. Professionalism at it’s best & …

The staff here treated my stepdaughter so very poorly at what should have been the most joyous experience of her life; the birth of her first child. They were rude and condescending towards her and when I called for advice about pain with …
ABSOLUTELY AWFUL HOSPITAL IVE EVER BEEN TO. IN PUT NURSE WORKING 05/04/22 night shift needs a new job. not in healthcare. Rude comments and facial expressions. This hospital is an absolute joke. If you actually have an emergency come to HCA Lakeland Emergency.
This hospital isnt to great. They took 6 hours for nothing last time I went. I showed up at 9 and by 3 am I just got up and left. They’re really all about the money. What I really dont like is they force you to take an xray they tried to …
Our ER experience was so good that I wanted to give 5 stars! My husband was seen immediately, they were competent and kind, and we had an answer what was wrong in exactly 3 hours. He was admitted, and that’s where I have to knock off 1 star …

This place is a joke. Never have I been to a hospital that has no empty beds. Several people, including myself left in the ER for numerous hours, with severe issues. The nursing staff is simply hit, or miss. The communication between the …
I have been to the pediatric emergency room twice and I’m not impressed. Service was much quicker in the old emergency room. The staff is very friendly including the nurses.. the attending physician (not so much). If I wasn’t already here …
I fell off our roof onto our pool deck and broke three vertebrae and split my skull open. The busy ER whisked me through into treatment. I spent six days between ICU, and and regular rooms. Every employee asked if they could do anything …

The nurses did a great job. Unfortunately, the doctor had a very snobbish attitude. As I tried to explain my father’s conditions and situation he kept interrupting and giving explanations like he was better than me. He has only known my …
Horrible horrible DRs – they fail to provide their patients with the CORRECT CARE and diagnosis as well as treatment care plans. They are EXTREMELY negligent, ESPECIALLY DR. Ordonez. This hospitals Doctors lack basic fundamentals, and …
I’m active Army and have been to Treatment Centers all over the world.Lakeland is by far the worst all around. Not only did my records not accompany my referral for further treatment but I was given inaccurate information on more than one …
Went to ER 11pm on a Saturday night. Tested heart immediately. Short wait to get to a room. Dr. John thoroughly tested me. Everyone made me feel less scared. Problem resolved at 5 am. Can’t recommend enough. Came from Wauchula.
They are taking wonderful care of my mom right now. All the nurses I’ve met so far really seem to care about their patients. Can’t thank them enough.

What a HORRIBLE experience in the emergency room , they want to leave you there for hours with NOBODY helping you , I feel I could have died there and nobody would have moved a finger
I don’t understand how a hospital can’t even follow CDC COVID guidelines. How are you going to sit sick persons a foot away from the next person and expect them to feel? How can you expect a parents to feel save about their child’s health …
Horrible hospital, been waiting for a CT scan of my head since 2pm and had to leave by 6pm without it nad they didnt even care
If you come to the peds section prefer to wait in a unbelievably long time. (Talking at the least a 30-45+ min) wait just to check in. Have an emergency? Forget it. …
The worst I have ever seen a hospital operate, maybe under staff but no excuse. Should have been sent to o fast trac right away. All we were seeing is the nurse practitioner it took almost 3 hrs. That is terrible!
I came to the hospital in really bad condition.
From triage to my emergency room visit with Kyle. He was amazing. Very friendly and professional but is really invested in his patience. To being admitted with …

The staff deserves 5 stars, front desk ladies and nurses are very kind and welcoming. Unfortunately, even though customer service is important, it is not why most people would choose a certain emergency room over another one. I visited …
Worst service at a hospital, they don’t even deserve as much as a 1 star rating. everyone was rude and no nurse wanted to help with anything. My son needed treatment but they were more worried about themselves than the patients. We’re here …

I cannot say enough for the nursing staff at Lakeland regional hospital. They are a caring and sharing people. Nothing is too hard or they are not unwilling to do for a patient. I also had contact with therapy. So helpful and concerning. …

Worst hospital I’ve been to. Was in for about a week in August for my COPD. When I asked to speak with the doctor before I was discharged the nurse told me he didn’t want to talk to me. They never go over the discharge papers. Then a a …
Was there Feb 3 which at the time I had chest pain and my doctor told me to go the LRH ER since I just had COVID for 3 1/2 weeks. I explained to them that I just got test 3 days prior for my 3 times and it was negative. I told them I was …

They never follow through on their commitments and constantly dump patients off on facilities that can’t help them. Go somewhere else.

Incompetent people! You wait hours before anyone gives you answers. They have even forgotten I’m in the room waiting. They are not informative. I leave with no real answers even when I ask questions about my pregnancy. You’d think me being …
The only reason I am giving this one star is for the phenomenal staff. I had THE best nurses.
I wish I could say the same for the doctors i dealt with. HORRIBLE bedside …
This place is a joke. Literally waiting over 4 hours now for a room. Been waiting in the ER. All they say is “it shouldn’t be much longer”. 4 hours isn’t much longer?? Really? Absolutely ridiculous.
Horrible hospital experience. Staff is rude, unconcerned and unresponsive to needs of patients. I waited over 30 minutes before they answered my call. Also, hospital is dirty. 3 days stay and no one cleaned my room or bathroom and no one offer to change my bed. Again horrible hospital.
This has to be the worst and most dirty hospital. I don’t know what they have done with putting people in hallways and waiting for like 6 7 hours. This is crazy they had a good system years ago when someone came in and showed them how to run it but I guess that all went out the window how awful to keep people waiting half a night.
The surgeons are good and they have some very high quality nurses. But there is also a ton of attitudes with some of them. I think they are understaffed a lot, as patient’s spend an awful lot of time alone with no one checking on them. …
Worst place ever i arrived at 3pm and pain its almost 6 pm im inside the er people that came in after me was scene before me nurce is sitting at checkin desk on computer waisting time n also going to tell patient you’re not having a seizure …

Lakeland Regional Outpatient- had my gall bladder removed Dec. 1.
Pros: the nursing staff was caring but understandably overwhelmed.
The surgical center seemed clean, but I would not allow my senior husband to …
My Dad was well cared for in the ICU while he was still with us and despite him passing away. Nurses Erik and Michelle and Dr. V were incredibly compassionate and helpful during our difficult time there. We met with Dr. V and even though we …
Not sure why there are so many bad reviews. I will give them 4 stars not 5 because the hospital needs some updating in terms of interior (I found a huge water spot on one of the ceiling tiles and it just felt kind of dirty and stale, …
My father is currently a patient and we have an extremely hard time just getting to talk to a nurse for an update. I haven’t been able to reach ANYONE for 4 days now. If I wasn’t out of state I would have him transferred to another …

A couple standouts were. …
I came to the ER on Thursday (8/12) by recommendation of my rheumatologist because I could not hold my head up and was having extreme pain in my neck and shoulders. I was admitted and they ran tests on me (CT scan, MRI). MRI showed some …
Too many people have died from careless mistakes by the doctors and nurses. My boyfriend’s mom died from an infection that they gave her!!! My grandpa died because they didn’t keep him on oxygen when taking him back to his room after …
FYI City of Lakeland is the owner of Lakeland Regional Hospital.
It’s all about Politics and Money!!!
It is a really horribly run hospital. …
Don’t ever go to this hospitals behavioral health unit, they don’t watch the patients so if you’re a woman and there’s some creepy patient than fancy’s you he’s apparently just allowed to enter your room at night, take your personal items, …
I was carried in with my fiancée and having a very difficult time breathing, shaking, and nearly collapsed twice from shortness of breath. The employee who checked us in made me feel very belittled, and like I was wasting my time. He told …
I have been dealing with a billing issue since January 24, 2022 and received the run around by both LRH billing and my insurance company, at that time. I’ve already called my insurance company three times and today made my second call to …
Lakeland Regional Health truly only has care and compassion for the amount of money you can pay . If you have insurance the inflation on charges is criminal, they know what they are doing and will squeeze as much as they can out of you as …

On multiple occasions amongst my family and others I know LRMC has proven to be a poor choice for our health care needs . I regret my choice of coming here and having my daughter here. Will not come back. I was having a natural childbirth …
This is the worst hospital ever. They are never prepared. They will never have your medication ready when you get discharged. Nothing is done professionally. If your a patient you have to make sure you get your own food BECUASE they will …
Don’t go in for an emergency. It’ll take them 5 hours just to get you back to a room even when you go for chest pains.
Nurses are great, Some Doctors are great. Auxiliary departments could do way better. Dietary, Housekeeping, Pharmacy.
The sharing of female and male patients that are not family is uncomfortable. In my 44 years I have never seen this!
I never been to a hospital that the nurse where so rude ! There service time are the worst and they don’t care about the patients just want to push you out and not fix the problem I will never go back !
Giving 2 stars only because the urgency children section of the hospital has a good portion of obnoxiously rude nurses and doctors. On top of it they are way to stern for parents when it comes to a decision that they are scared about, …
Your food is awful. Some of your nurses are rude. I’m schedul for an operation but either the doctor or staff keep changing the date. I need a heart operation for their a 92.% blockage but why rush it. I guess the longer I’m at the …
The 5 star reviews and positive comments on here must be from the employees and nurses that work here because they sure as hell don’t tend to the patients. How could they with their heads buried in their phones. If it wasn’t for them being …
My father was sent early this morning from a health and rehabilitation center to this hospital ER. After 4 hours of no update even though the rehab assured me they gave the information to call me to the ambulance people, I called. They were …
I have really been undergoing some serious health issues lately and everyone at LRMC has really helped me through a very scary time in my life. I really want to acknowledge some incredible people who work for this hospital and how thankful …
The emergency waiting room is now in a hall. The hospital does not protect your privacy. They don’t understand hippa and it does not apply. When you are in a hallway. I wouldn’t ever come here again. Most staff are rude, you be better …
The nurses where super sweet. I was there for 6 days due to lower abdomen pain. They did every test in the book and couldn’t find where the pain was coming from. They kept me there making sure that the pain i was feeling wasn’t normal and …
If I could rate this hospital 0 stars I definitely would. I come to get seen and get checked in at 5am. Been waiting for about 2 hours. There were people walking in the ER after me and being seen before me even though I told them my pain …
Nurse Michelle in Same Day Surgery was absolutely amazing with the level of care she provided my wife on 27 October 2021, both before and after her surgery. She is sharp and very knowledgeable in what she does and I can tell that she really …

My boyfriend was admitted here for a broken humerus bone. The sense of urgency just doesn’t exist. The nurses don’t return for hours or even come back when you ask for them. They just keep you in the dark completely. He was supposed to …
Husband still in the hospital. They say he needs this test done. Radiology never around test pushed back a day and next no one to read it. What a freaking joke. He is supposed to have a procedure was told one day and still not scheduled. …
They leave you waiting in the patient room for almost an hour with a promise to be back quickly or in 10 minutes tops. They forget about you and then blame you for waiting that long instead of apologizing. That happened to my husband and I …
This hospital has really went down hill. It is dirty and the staff could care less if you died in the waiting room as you are waiting for 5 hours to be called back to be seen. Do not come here. Find another hospital!
I wish I could give you less than one star…bottom of the barrel staff and health care….I believe the people that work in this sad excuse for a hospital could not get a job anywhere else….I can’t even begin to tell u how horrible thier …
Waiting room at FastTrac was disgusting. Floors filthy, water bottles and trash left on chairs. Was supposed to receive certain things while I was there. They did not give me anything. Not very professional.
Normally a pretty good place to go, but. Waiting over an 1 1/2 hours to see the doctor for an appointment is beyond ridiculous. This will never happen again.
Came here anytime I had problems they admitted me for open heart surgery got that done felt great after then had to get a pacemaker put in recently at 21 years old an the staff definitely always made me feel like family I wish the best for …

I was there on 9/23/22 to get an biopsy,
And every single staff that I interacted with were very professional,did everything they could to help me not stress the procedure I was about to get, …
This Hospital does not recognize religious or medical exemptions on mask. The “head security guard“ that came down could not even tell me that he would protect the rights of somebody with a medical mask exemption at the hospital if they came into the ER. He admitted he was just an order follower and was there to collect a paycheck.
I went into the ER around 1:30pm and right from the start the staff was nice and helpful I had a nurse by the name of Amanda and saw Dr.Kiel both was super informative Thanks to the staff I’m feeling a lot better and was on my way home around 4:00pm

As a whole LRHMC is a very good medical center. However LRHMC’s Financial Department is totally dysfunctional, and the people you talk to are extremally rude! …
The staff is rude and demeaning and will ABSOLUTELY judge you and talk rudely about you to your face. Also, lord help you if you’ve ever struggled with addiction at any point in time or have ever OD’d n been taken there. They will make sure …
If you love your family member, don’t bring them here. My 37 yo brother entered this hospital for a type B aortic dissection , easily treated with medication management. In an effort to get his BP down, they admitted him. He then coded. He …
I will only give this place 1 star for the nursing staff was great. The doctor Dr.Christopher Roger’s was HORRIBLE to say the least. He rushed you, made you feel unimportant in your care, ran all sorts of unneccarry and very expensive …
If I could give a 0 I would!! Dr. Wang or tang whatever his name. They discussed medical diagnosis with my 15 yr old austic son when I wasn’t in the room.
Horrible Horrible place! I’m contacting an attorney.
This place doesn’t even deserve Stars. My wife is pregnant and was treated very poorly from the moment she walked in till the moment she left. Her pain was a 10/10 and she had a 108 fever. They simple told her she needed to wait and there …
Dr.Vega is one of the most unprofessional people I have ever had the displeasure of interacting with. You are genuinely better off asking a goldfish for medical advice. Front of house staff are nice.
So my father in law went in to get stints done. They charged him for it and he paid the bill. After having a massive heart attack we were told they FORGOT TO PUT THEM IN so they literally did nothing and now his time is cut short because of literal incompetence. Enjoy the lawyers 🙂
Visition to my elderly brother became a nightmare after the entire nursing staff failed to notify our family that my brother contracted COVID. He was tested routinely in preparation for discharge. On my next visit 3 days later I went …

I was in a motorcycle accident yesterday morning. I knew something was wrong with my shoulder but the doctor was concerned about the road rash that I had instead. He never paid attention to what I was saying and was one of the rudest …
From the moment I walked in the door until I left the next day I have never been treated better or more professionally with a caring seldom found anymore. The staff on all levels were exceptional and made me feel like I was the only …
Had surgery today. The operating room staff has been amazing but my recovery nurse is terrible. Hit my button twice in over 5 hrs and have been made to feel like an utter inconvenience because I can’t pee. …
I came to the ER at 3:00 pm. At 9:00 pm I’m still here. I had no call button in case of emergency. I sat in the waiting room for 4 1/2 hours in severe pain. The picture shows what the nurse left an hour ago. Not good. I was here a short while ago and I had the best care. This disappointed me. Especially at a learning hospital.
Common courtesy and professionalism is rare. My mother was admitted several days and many times after a change of shift, the new nurse would come in the room and just straight to the computer without even a greeting or introduction. Many …
WARNING! PLEASE DO NOT take your loved ones to this hospital! Mother received Covid vaccine on the 10th of December and got COVID on the 16th! Floor 6, C wing 😂 Full of incompetence and carelessness! These nurses are lazy and sit around a …
This hospital is by far the worst.The customer service is horrible. The negligence towards there patients is completely
unacceptable.. The nurses are RUDE and you sit around waiting for hours to get told “nothing is wrong”
I am in this hospital tonight and I have been waiting for hours for pain medicine. Only to find out from the nurse on shift that there haven’t been any orders written for me. So now we have to wait for the admitting doctor to be found and ok the meds. I have a broken toe and I am dying.
This place is a SCAM. There were doctors who walked in there to ask me once in my 24 hour stay, “how you doin’?”….. and they billed me $800 for the 30 seconds. …
Horrible!!! Been here for 3 hours “ER” and we are still waiting to get called back. You come to the emergency room for a reason, because it’s an emergency!!!! They put you in a room and forget about you. Absolutely rediculous!!!!! This hospital HAS to do better!!!!!
I was taken here last night by Ambulance, I have a heart issue, AFib, I don’t feel safe here, I have been left alone for hours. Haven’t even gotten my daily heart medice, bp is 138/108, asked for a supervisor, they gave me Amy on B4, she …
Soooo this place is very unprofessional. I took my fiancé to the ER because he wasn’t feeling well . The wait time is ridiculous. The people who work here seem like they don’t want to be here . I think they should get other profession. No …
Only reason for 1 star is because I have to otherwise they’d get a -5. My pregnant wife is cramping and spitting and they act like they don’t matter and when asked about how long (we were Already waiting for 4 1/2 hours) they beat around …
My daughter was in a motorcycle accident.She came in with a small collapse in her lung with lots of pain in her chest and ribs. She was sent home the next day with a report of no broke bones. On Wednesday the pain was so bad that we took …
Excellent nursing staff day shift. Night shift not as good. Night shift took vitals at beginning of shift and then did not check in on my husband to see if he was ok the rest of the night. The man just had surgery and you don’t check in on …
My mom had a surgery called TAVR this morning. We were all naturally worried but we knew she was in good hands with Dr. Hasan & Dr. Khanna. The true rockstars are the nurses in the ICU. Meighan and Isbel are God sent. They are so …
This hospital is and has been nothing but a blessing for myself and family. My hospital has been admitted three times since the middle of 2022 from having sickle cell crisis which is a blood disease that is extremely painful and …
The Medical and Nursing staff are efficient, courteous and compassionate.
The food good for a hospital.
The house keeping is definitely not up to par!
My brother was admitted to Intensive care room in part because he required a breathing tube. When the day came to remove him from the tube per his DNR & increasing the likelihood that he would pass, the hospital staff was completely …
This place is just another medical scam. I was in the ER for two hours for a kidney stone and just got hit with a bill for almost $4000. Seriously who can afford that? Not to mention they don’t give you any indication of cost beforehand …
I came into the emergency room with abdominal pain. I was moved relatively quickly to a room where staff evaluated what was happening. I was admitted to another room where medical staff could conduct a more through assessment of what was …
I walked onto the emergency room Monday night in severe back and leg pain multiple tests were run pain is better but I can’t walk without a walker. Dr says I need rehab to strengthen my muscles. No neurologist has been consulted my leg is …

If you can just go somewhere else. Outrageous wait times (I’ve been here for four hours and am currently writing this from the waiting room) I understand worst cases go first but when I watch people walk in and immediately get called in to …
If I can give negative stars I would. I took my wife to the ER here at 1 in the morning. She was in agonizing pain. We left after 2 hours and never was seen by a doctor. We weren’t the only people to leave. Were they out to lunch? They …

He opened up my father and decided not to remove the gall bladder. He explained …
*** The doctor in the E.R. broke H.I.P.A. laws when he stood outside the door to give me my prognosis and follow up treatment. Anyone within ear shot could hear my private health information. The staff at this hospital is the least …
The pediatric department was the best! The cared for my baby girl with love and attentiveness! Everyone from the doctors to the cleaning crew were friendly, caring, knowledgeable and tentative. I recommend the highly!!
Great hospital!
Great experience from ER to the 9th floor in June. We came back for a second time in September, Dr. MacFarland and nurse Sarah were AWESOME. They were …
Absolutely the worst experience I’ve ever had in the hospital. 8 1/2 hours in the emergency room and 2 CT scans. The Dr. Was completely incompetent. The doctor came in the room To see my wife And she didn’t even look at her chart to see …
To all who reads this , if your able please go to another hospital if it’s an emergency…if heart attack or something call 911 of course but if walking in you will not get emergency care..on Aug 27..I came through the E.R.with my second …

My mom was admitted to the 7th floor of the D wing. She arrived at 9pm. After several room changes they finally got her settled around 3:30am. I arrived the next mornig. The staff was was awesome and answered any questions I had. Fast …
This place is so slow. We’ve been here for hours. The doctors already gave my mother the medication and should have sent her home. Mind we live 3 hours away and it’s 1:00am. We began at 7:30pm. They are either horribly understaffed or just …
The level of service at this hospital is horrendous. I’ve never left a review of anything before but I just had to warn others about coming here for medical care. I was placed in the ortho floor after a hip replacement surgery, and I was …
Truthfully the worst ER experience I’ve ever had. I had a kidney stone lodged into my bladder sending me into septic shock. I was in extreme pain and when placing my urinary catheter the nurses were snickering back and forth…one asked “how …
ER is a joke. Employees are rude. Ended up at fast track Thank the Lord. Fast track department is the most amazing people! Love em! If the ER nurses had any of the kind and loving and sweet people working there things would change a lot.
This hospital is very unprofessional. My dad went to the ER and has been there for over 72hrs. I live in another state so I can not just show up and see how he is doing!. Yes, he has a phone but it died because we didn’t plan for him to be …
Rude, incompetent staff. I came by ambulance and was put in a waiting room. My concerns were not taken seriously. There is nurse there that is very rude with zero bedside manner or basic customer service skills. When I get her name I will …
My sister was admitted in building D.. there was an amazing nurse named misty !! I believe she was the head nurse or team lead. Absolutely went above and beyond for her. So sweet , smart, kind, compassionate & caring. She took charge and exceeded all expectations!! Wonderful person
