  1. This hospital killed my dad I cannot post details right now but please do not send your love ones here.I am truly worried for sick and elderly patients that come any where near this hospital.

  2. Literally terrible service takes way to long the main doctor is very rude and doesn’t give out all the information that may be needed you walk in with whatever illness and stay for 4-5 hours and only 30 minutes of that time is actually used being tested or cared for would not recommend

  3. Went in with 3 year old daughters forehead, cut and waited over two hours, while, watching, 5 people cut line in front of me. I told them to take me off list, I’ll take my business elsewhere.

  4. My husband is a patient at Northwest Medical Center we have had excellent care nursing staff has been wonderful would not have a complaint proud of our new hospital

  5. All the people involved have been very effective, kind, and helpful. They want you to ask questions, and will do their best to answer with the information/stats they have at hand.

  6. This hospital is so slow and the people that work in the er are slow and when u are in pain they do not do anything for you and look at u crazy so in nine months my wife will not have our baby here we will go to a different hospital …. That is better and faster about seeing people.

  7. I don’t care what I do in my life, I will end it all before I hate my job as much as this hospital staff. They treated my dad well when he went for a procedure, but they all act like they don’t want to be there any time i’ve went.

  8. The staff dropped the ball a couple times on house keeping. But nurses and doctors where excellent. I was impressed and I probably learned more about how a hospital is run this time.

  9. Er doctor was cool and seemed to listen but i plainly told the nurses and the dr i did not want opioids i just wanted 1 ambien to help me sleep through the pain they sent me with norcos and hydroxyzine which is a horrible drug that can …

  10. This place was awful when I was in there. I may have later in the bed with blood pouring out my ears for 12 hours. I thought I was going to die. Luckily by the will of God I was able to crawl out the window and make it to my car and drive to the other hospital. DO NOT GO HERE

  11. I liked it until the last day my mom stayed there she has Alzheimer’s and Dementia and share their to a short-term Rehabilitation Center and they were supposed to call me or my brother to go with her so she didn’t get confused and should …

  12. The place is new and clean that’s why I gave 1 star. I had the worst experience of my life. I was racially profiled. If I had to go to the hospital I would choose one in Colbert County because I would rather die then to go back to them!!!!😣 …

  13. My wife passed away here on September 14 a year ago and I was glad to know that she was in no pain it was hard not to get but 2 hours a day you guys are Heroes Even though C19

  14. ER doctor was terrible. i waited over 3 hours in pain before i was administered any medicines. its a new facility with the same terrible physicians and treatment

  15. Awful. I had to wait 2 hours only to be told what I had was “probably a migraine.” If I could give 0 stars I would. The nurse practitioner was very rude. If I could remember her name I would put it… Terrible.. SMH

  16. The only reason I gave this sorry place one star was because I had to to get to this page🤬..I had rather use a veterinary office as use this place…there is absolutely nothing about this pitiful place that I will ever….ever use …

  17. This hospital BILLING needs WORK! IF U get a bill from them! Call ur INS first! They have no clue what there doing!! Corp located in TENNESSEE ! An billing ppl THE wrong amount …

  18. they were extremely slow and if felt as if they did not care about you as a person. it felt like you were there experiment. first they did not know what the problem was so they misdiagnosed then they didn’t even recommend future assistance or a referral.

  19. Excuse of a medical center could not tell me why I was there even though I arrived in an ambulance and they would never answer any questions I asked him throughout my whole stay do not go here I left and was ready to go outside in the dark before letting them treat me

  20. I highly recommend this hospital! They got my grandfather in super quick when he was having a heart attack and probably saved his life! They did an amazing job and took excellent care of him! 10/10 recommend!

  21. A new hospital should not have holes in the chairs and stains in the sink. That tells me that everything is cheap. They also need a more efficient way of handling some of the medical issues.

  22. What a joke of a hospital! I’m a retired nurse from another town and cane here for my grandsons birth. They still at 8pm don’t have this cluster of a mess fixed.

  23. The nurses are super nice and attentive. It’s a very nice hospital but, I feel like on the first floor, they invested too much money in the all the furniture and not enough money on the hand sanitizer….

  24. The absolute worse hospital I’ve ever had the displeasure of going in! The nursing staff is rude, condescending & has the worse bedside manner. My dog has been treated better by the vet! Wouldn’t recommend this place to my worse enemy!

  25. Every review on this that is above 1-2 stars is FAKE… My boyfriend (WHO HATES TAKING MEDS FOR ANYTHING & ALWAYS WAITS TIL THE LAST MINUTE TO EVEN GO TO THE HOSPITAL BECAUSE HE HATES THEM) went here twice, both time they didn’t run any …

  26. I don’t know what’s happening, but I have tried 3 times to write a review and it disappears.
    My doc’s were great, the staff is horrible. My daughter came to stay with me and it was so bad she asked me if we were on Candid Camera!!!!

  27. I have been a patient, had family members be patients and I have worked here for almost 2 years. The care I have given and received by nurses, physicians, and care partners has always been phenomenal.

  28. Expensive, even if you have insurance. They hit me with a $344 bill out of nowhere. Now it’s on my credit score. And You’d be better off diagnosing yourself at home. I had a breathing problems and they gave me coughing pills smh. So I ordered a breathing machine online and got better.

  29. Wen’t to ER for suspected heart problems. Was treated very well by all persons involved. Was not admitted to hospital and sent home with instuctions. Very good service and would strongly recommend this ER.

  30. This is third time for my daughter has come here in past month … ran same test sending home with meds… try different test you might find out what is wrong with her…. severe headaches, vomiting, dizziness, and seizures are her …

  31. Was in the ER waiting room for maybe 30 minutes, staff was friendly and I didn’t feel a thing while getting stitches in my hand. Hope to not come back, but definitely would.

  32. They are holding a patient against his will… for 4 days! The doctor will not return calls to the family. Nurses can’t tell us anything. They won’t let us in the hospital.

  33. Worst care I think I have ever had, such uncaring staff, I didn’t even see a dr and the nurse practitioner didn’t hardly talk to me before brushing me off, so instead i got a night of agony, definitely don’t recommend

  34. This has got to be the worst hospital to ever go to. Go to Nashville or Birmingham since the nurses complain about there pay. Stayed in waiting room for 3 hours after 4 people came out and questioned them about it and they say they are not payed as much as Nashville TN or Birmingham AL to do there job in the ER.

  35. This is absolutely the most uncaring hospital ever , our mom was there admitted on 10th of October with pnemonia, apparently on Tuesday the 12 she coded when her bipap was either taken off or she pulled it off we really don’t know what …

  36. I want to thank the staff and doctor at the emergency room today, 08/22/2019, for the professionalism, and compassion they showed my wife pam. A special thanks to nurse Ali, very kind, very attentive. Thank you again, John Laird

  37. My niece went last night by ambulance. She was choking on a piece of chocolate and having a panic attack. They let her sit there unable to breath by herself and gave her nothing to try and stop the waves of panic she was experiencing. We …

  38. We had an excellent experience here when delivering a baby in December. I noticed there were many bad reviews and wanted to note that we only had very kind, informed staff during our time here!

  39. Kicked me and my son out even tho we have been there have the day just cause he is underage of 12 they also kicked a grandmother and her grandsons (7months old ) out to in the freezing cold couldn’t even wait in side for my fiancé to get out of the bathroom cause he had the key it’s messed up

  40. My 74 year old mother was seen by an ER dr..that I assume thought we were there for pain meds because there is no other explanation for his rudeness…when in fact she has had severe colon issues for years…A New building does not make it a good hospital! The nurses are so understaffed it’s crazy!..Do the powers that be not care? NO!

  41. Same as ecm. Long waits because offer ce managers don’t know how to schedule patients. One machine five appointments at the same time for.ome machine. Absolutely ignorant! I don’t know why my doctor sent me here, I’d rather drive to Huntsville and spend the gas vers being in an incompetent hospital. This will be my last visit.

  42. On Feburary 4,2019 I arrived at 345pm with a self diagnosed harna after a physical examination it was confirmed. I was discharged at 922pm with no care plan no pain management or information to contact a general surgeon. This was a complete …

  43. The nurse at the window was helpful. They got him in a room quick. At first they seemed very attentive. A Dr came in within Abt 20 min. And gave us a * Quick educated GUESS ” by just * looking” at him. So 3 hrs later and nothing!!! Won’t …

  44. Better healthcare!?? Rather than building a new hospital, you should have placed more focus on the service. Hire friendly nurses without attitudes and doctors that REALLY care for the well being of patients. Y’all also should have addressed …

  45. If I could give less stars I absolutely would. This place is so disgusting the staff is extremely rude and snooty. I brought my 4 year old daughter in after being suggested by after hours for possibly signs of something serious when …

  46. Started off at Total Care (service was EXCELLENT). They called an Ambulance! Top Notch Care! Was transported tl NAMC and the care was superb in the emergency ward! THANK YOU ALL!!!

  47. Nurse in Er was very rude and not helpful at all been to several hospitals with kids and wife having kidney stones. Nurse would not treat wife cause she was vomiting and would not help here just left and said when you complie we will help …

  48. Went to the ER, I was diagnosed with shingles, which was ( is) very painful. The LPN at reception desk was unfriendly, almost rude. Waited 4 hours to go back. Diagnosed by a Nurse Practitioner almost immediately, and released. I told them I preferred ECM, for their compassion.

  49. This hospital is understaffed and unsanitary.
    The patient will go days before being bathed or linens changed unless you request it to be done. …

  50. Very clean ALOT better then Hellen Keller by far. Receptionist and registration were very friendly the nurse kassi was awful had terrible attitude didnt much care for the way she presented herself was not very informative very rough drawing …

  51. Poor attitude and listening skills. My son went in to get his wet cast off. Nurses have no knowledge in how to put right kind of temporary cast since the Bone and Joint office was closed.My son has broken thumb and they tried to give him a …

  52. My mother went in to North Alabama medical center to have an arteriogram. From the time we arrived to the time we left the next day was a great experience . I want to personally thank and mention 2 nurses in the Cath lab, Jacob and Nicholas …

  53. My family is the most important thing in This world to me. My precious father was having severe back pain and had been to two other doctors. He made an appointment with Dr. Adderholt. He is already up and walking. Couldn’t be more thankful for these people. Thank u Eric Perry for making sure they were taken care of

  54. My God this is the slowest, least caring, rudest places I have ever seen that consider themselves an Emergency Room. A picture of apathy and patient neglect. Ridiculous, will never go there again!

  55. This is the worst hospital. Nobody knows what anybody is doing. You’ll get 6 different bills but nobody will know why. You will get sent to collections while you have payments being automatically drafted from your bank and the place is nasty. Run don’t walk somewhere else.

  56. Registration was quick. I didn’t wait long for my procedure. Everyone I talked to was friendly and professional. Amy and Kristy were amazing and really put me at ease. Thank you!

  57. My husband was in North Alabama medical center on December 23, 2018. And he was treated very very great by all at the hospital from the Dr to the 4th floor nurses! Thanks for taking such good care of my husband!!! We love N. A . M. C!!!

  58. I’m very grateful for the care rendered during my recent visit. The 4th floor staff are Rock Stars in my book! All members that administered care were very professional, courteous, respectful, and friendly. The epitome of customer …

  59. It took 30 minutes to be seen at the ER and we were the only people in the waiting room. Once placed in a room each attending nurse, tech, dr came in to assist my family member. I must say not once did I see any of them wash their hands! I …

  60. Before moving to the new hospital they were known as Eliza Coffee Memorial Hospital. The big move took place December 6th, 2018. These guys had clearly been plan in every detail of the move thoroughly ! Speaking from first hand experience …

  61. If I could give this hospital no stars I would. This is the most rude, unsympathetic, ignorant and unprofessional hospital I have ever seen. The nurses sit at the station eating and talking about the patients like they don’t matter. This is …

  62. Speaking for the OB Dept, inpatient, and ER on more than one incident concerning myself and 3 immediate family members. Also the last!!! Short staffed, rude employees, throw Core Measures out the window, inept, and uncaring!! For those …

  63. Would give a zero if it was available! Daughter hit her head and we waited over three hours in a room only to ask for discharge paperwork so we could leave. Then doctor came in all snooty looking like what’s wrong. I told them we are going …

  64. Terrible Hospital! My neighbor was in palliative care begging for water .. and we asked the Nurse several times if he could have water … it took a hour for a glass of ice water to be brought to us.. then after we left we saw the nurses at …

  65. WOW! I went to labor and delivery at 31 weeks with contractions. They wouldn’t let my husband come back until they got me “admitted”. Took them 30 minutes, then they wanted to do swabs without him around. I have been to other hospitals with …

  66. Better off finding a gutter to die in instead of trying to get in the the ER. After writing in pain for 4.5 hrs in their lobby, I finally left as med plus was opening. Better, quicker, cheaper care. I wish I.could give negative stars!

  67. I would advise staying away from this facility (previously named ECM). My mother a trained medical professional went there expressing that she knew she was having a stroke. Dr. Flowers sent her home telling her and her family that she was …

  68. I was quite surprised at the level of care I received at NAMC given my past experiences at ECM. The ER trip was about 20 mins from sign in to room and the care was prompt and thorough . I didn’t feel like I was being treated like a junkie …

  69. Amazing staff.. all of my nurses were absolutely helpful and knowledgeable. I never felt like a burden or just someone’s job. Dr. Robbins was the on call Gyn.. now my new Doc! So nice and helpful, I feel blessed to have had her during my stay. They saved my life.. thank you.

  70. I’m in the hospital now but have gotten bad service from some of the nurses.but one nurse caught my eye she is so sweet and she helped me out a lot her name is page I hope that is how she spells her name and there are a few others and the …

  71. The good: it’s pretty. Most of the nurses seem friendly enough.
    The bad: My grandfather is going on 38 hours no food, drink or his medication while waiting on a swallow test that has been ordered yet no answer as to when its …

  72. Son admitted Thursday. Waited 2 hours for pain meds Thursday night,around 45 minutes for ice water. Early this am nurse changed iv bag within 5 minutes machine started alarming,called nurse station, after alarm going for 30 minutes I call back,finally turned off. I’D GO ELSEWHERE

  77. I had knee replacement surgery there on May 10th and I have to say every one was super nice. I feel like I got amazing care there. The nurses that took care of me on the 4th floor are great. My main 2 nurses Heather(days) and Kim(nights) were awesome!!!! I have to have my other knee done and I will not hesitate to go back to NAMC. 😎 …

  78. I had an excellent experience at the Endoscopy Center, from Belinda at preregistration through to my recovery room nurse (though I was pretty loopy at that point). The receptionist, Kelly, Kay, Riley and Dr. Haggstrom were wonderful.

  79. My Mother was taken to NAMC after a serious fall and stroke. I can not say enough about how tender, gentle and kind the staff treated her! Their compassion and care for not just their patient but also for the family during a very difficult …

  80. Husband been here for bout 2 months for the most part we have been blessed with good staff members they have truly been kind to us and helped us …. thanks to each and everyone who has taken care of him in this horrific time for us💌🤍 …

  81. Horrible experience for a family member. RNs are inexperienced to the point of being dangerous..physicians are rude, incompetent and uncaring. Called to document a formal complaint to risk management and did not even receive a return call. Stay far away.

  82. NAMC is a brand new hospital. Most are friendly, but too many rude nurses. Example: was on medication to urinate, call to get help to go to bathroom, 1 hour later she comes and …

  83. Great new hospital with the same service you got at ECM. Very, very slow ER. No employees show any sense of urgency. Patient care is poorly executed and employee moral is low. If you seek treatment here you’ll find out the hard way. I’m …

  84. My mother’s nurses were great especially Kim Green. Only problem we had was with Dr Murkett he is the rudest person I’ve ever encountered. He has a God complex and treats patients like they are the dirt under his feet. I worked in …

  85. I was vomiting and having seizures, waiting in the lobby over 30min. The triage nurse saw me falling out of my chair, and SNAPPED AT ME. She didn’t help me back into the chair, she snapped at me. She was annoyed she had to ask for a room to …

  86. ER is literally painfully slow. My 2 year old daughter sat screaming due to a dislocated elbow in a completely empty waiting room for nearly 3 hours. 1 other patient was there briefly when we arrived and there was literally no one else in …

  87. Emergency room was ridiculous, but the worst part was the girls behind the desk. Rolling their eyes and annoyed every time a patient came in and came to the window. Had one lady passed out, barely breathing, and they nonchalantly walked outside to get her in a wheelchair. Came back in just causally laughing and being so hateful.

  88. This review is specifically for the endoscopy department. Last month, June 2020, I went there for a colonoscopy. I wasn’t exactly looking forward to that. I arrived at 5:30 am for the procedure. The entire staff… from checking in, prep, …

  89. I see a lot of negative reviews. My experience was far from that. I went in with what I hoped was bronchitis and found out I had COVID. was told if my symptoms did not improve to come back…. I came back 4 days later with a fever and …

  90. We went to ER last night February 7th 2021 my husband was running fever. He has been sick since Christmas. He has an abcess from gald bladder surgery. The ER Dr. Was rude and sarcastic. I just wanted to know why he was running a fever. He …

  91. I delivered my beautiful daughter at North Alabama Medical Center and from the moment I arrived till the moment we left my family and I had a wonderful experience. Our nurses were very attentive and caring as well as other hospital staff …

  92. We can’t say enough about the wonderful staff at NAMC, amazing is not a big enough word! They were ALL there for us on the most important day of our lives, having our son Silas Evan. They cheered me on, they counted with me as I pushed, …

  93. The majority of the nurses here are sweet and very helpful but it is obvious that they are SEVERLY understaffed. The nurses were clearly not able to keep up because of how busy they were and I can only imagine how many patients they have …

  94. Having to rate this a 1 star because of the day shift nurses in critical care. My dad was transferred from Helen Keller (which had awesome nurses and drs. They actually cared about the patient). The night shift nurses were pretty good; but …

  95. I did my clinicals in the ER here so behind the scenes nurses are extremely unprofessional, they sit there and talk about the patients using their full name while other patients are walking by. They talk about meeting at the bar after their …

  96. Frequently we get from an experience what we bring to the experience.
    My husband was a patient in the ER within days of the move to the new facility. Fast, efficient , quality compassionate care is what he received. …

  97. I have had 3 family members at this hospital since it opened and each one of those visits was horrible. Spent hours in ER. We were told there were no vacant rooms. Waited 3 days before a doctor finally came in and told us what was going …

  98. This star is for the nurses that are really trying. My 82 year old Mother was in the E R from 4:30 pm until 2:00 the next afternoon. It’s 3:00 Saturday afternoon and she’s been told she would get a bath and clean sheets since 9:00 am. Keep …

  99. Don’t waste your time going I would suggest Helen Keller . The wait was 2 hours in the ER before getting a room. Then the nurse taking blood threw the containers of blood not needed in the garbage can not a biohazard can. The NP did not …

  100. The labor and delivery, and post partum nurses at NAMC are fantastic. Especially the L&D nurses. I had my first baby at NAMC in September of 2020, and almost every staff member that worked with us was amazing. They genuinely comforted me …

  101. I came to the ER for sever dehydration. I’ve sat in the ER for 4 hours. It was only 3 people ahead of me. They we’re calling people back in the order that they arrived. However, a lady that got here after me by about 10-15 minutes was …

  102. Unfortunate that a new hospital has staff issues. I can only speak about the ER, but my daughter was there for nearly 8 hours for a stomach illness. Nurse was nice and apologetic for the long delay, but no excuse for the staff doctor. I …

  103. My Father in law was a patient a couple weeks ago. I just want to let everyone know how much we appreciate the great care he received. From the ER (Hannah and Erika) to the floor (and I don’t know the names of the nurses that were taking …

  104. My wife was told to call the day before surgery between 1 and 3 PM to get the exact time of her surgery. This is to insure the exact time because of rescheduling. They told her 5:45 AM. We arrive at preop on time for a nurse to say you …

  105. The 5-4 stars shouldn’t count when they are given by employees… state of the art buildings and equipment mean absolutely nothing if there’s idiots with degrees attempting to operate them. Changed physicians just to prevent being sent to …

  106. The RN that was assigned to me in the emergency room Sep12 2021 was nothing more then a total jackass! Rude is putting it mildly! Anytime I ask any questions pertaining to my condition W would snap at me! I finally had enough and snapped …

  107. Really great experience! My son was sent to the ER from Urgent Care with a suspected appendicitis. I had heard the wait was awful in the ER so I was worried. But, since it was an actual emergency, we were there 2 hours from start to finish. …

  108. I am currently in this hospital. There is not 1 good thing I can say. The service is horrible!!!!! I waited 15 min. For my call service to be answered. My IV was beeping driving me nuts! And forget about getting a nurse. I never see …

  109. Don’t go. Go to the animal vet before you go here. My son was sent home with someone else’s records. He was made to feel horrible about his condition. He was not allowed to call me to pick him up. They called a taxi for him instead. Which …

  110. I had to go for a small very minor injury from work, which med plus would not see and had to go to the ER. I only waited in the waiting room for maybe 10-15 minutes. The wait in a exam room was a bit long, but I also understand that there …

  111. My father has been at NAMC 16 days. He is currently in ICU on a ventilator. Our family has been trying to get a single daily update from any doctor treating him without success. I am able to go meet with his nurse daily and get updates …

  112. The care by doctors and staff were adequate. So much is done electronically rather than personal interaction. Example: rather than seeing a nurse from time to time, I was monitored by approximate a dozen and half sensors attached to my …

  113. My Child was super super, sick and had very odd symptoms, the center ran test after test for two days, they kept saying they didn’t know what it could be, a friend of mine was a nurse (did not work there) gave me their recommendation on …

  114. For the most part friendly staff. Busy times I know but we spent 6 1/2 hrs in the ER. I just don’t feel like that it should have taken that long with my father in law just having open heart surgery a few weeks ago. But a very nice worker I wish I knew his name was very helpful and kund

  115. The Pediatric floor at NAMC was wonderful. They took such good care of my daughter. Special shoutout to nurses; Mona, Jeremy, Emily, they were so patient and kind. Also to the ultrasound tech and the lady who transported her ya’ll were so sweet!

  116. Absolutely would not recommend this place. My mom was transferred here for a possible stroke. It took them 8 hours before they even ordered a CT scan which is ridiculous considering the first few hours after a stroke are vital. The …

  117. My elderly father was brought to NAMC by ambulance, suspected of possibly having a mild stroke. He was kept about 4 days. Before he was discharged, it was obvious he would need physical therapy (Rehab). One case worker gave me a list of …

  118. My father is currently at this facility. The ER was great. They jumped right on his problems. We were admitted. While on the floor we were told not to let him get up without nursing staff. He has to use the restroom and we hit the call …

  119. ER doctors are in there for the money ! They don’t care about people!!
    Also THERE Needs to be HANDICAP PARKING on BOTH sides of the parking lot at the MEDICAL BUILDING!!

  120. Was transferred here last month from “Crockett hospital for a kidney stone as Crockett did not have their urologist on call. Was told it needs removed, but it doesn’t justify us doing anything, here is a script for pain meds. Really? Almost as bad as Crockett hospital in Lawrenceburg.

  121. A needle on the floor that the nurses were told about multiple times, they just kicked it further to the side each time they were told. Most incompetent staff I’ve ever seen

  122. My wife was having contractions every 5 minutes for over 30 hours straight. She is considered high-risk because her last pregnancy ended in an emergency C section. We went to the hospital three times over two nights, each time begging to …

  123. Rude and egregiously incompetent staff in ER. Nurses and doctors lack compassion and professionalism. Dirty and unsanitary patient rooms and bathrooms. Billing dept is a mess. I will never use NAMC again, and I do not recommend for others …

  124. My loved ones recently went to the emergency room and saw Dr. Michael Larochelle. They had a horrible experience and Dr. Larochelle was extremely rude. Did not care that they were sick and sent them away with zero treatments after being …

  125. My sister recently passed very suddenly. The Cardiac Critical Care Unit was so kind, respectful, and caring. There were so many people involved in her care from the ER Staff, OR Staff, Dialysis Staff, Dr. Pons, and her precious Nurse Seth. …

  126. The night shift is great I was on the 5th floor, Adrianna and Chelsea was amazing. Tammera on day shift was great. There was a few more I can’t place names for but all the doctors in this place except Dr Robinson is a joke. The few good nurses are ran into the ground because of the staffing and bad attitude people working there.

  127. My special needs son and I spent the entire night of July 4th in the ER with a gallbladder attack. Everyone was very attentive at first, but after awhile we were pretty much abandoned. There were times when I had to physically go out and …

  128. My experience was great. From beginning to end. NAMC was very clean, everyone was super nice. A shout out to my nurses, Kacie and Kelly on the 3rd floor. They were there for me every time I needed them. I had to stay overnight and they were great. Dr. Wakefield is a great doctor. I would recommend this hospital to everyone.

  129. Our first experience at NAMC outpatient surgery center was terrific. We couldn’t have been treated better or more professionally. Every employee and volunteer was kind to us. Even one of your employees who was clearly on a break went over …

  169. The ER has not been too busy tonight but they keep taking patients back every so often and rechecking their vitals. They then sent them back to the lobby to wait. We have been here since 11 pm and it is now 1:14 am. This is a shame.

  170. Clean and orderly. Process seemed confusing for most of the people there for outpatient testing. They do have volunteers to help people get to where they need to be.

    admitted to the hospital. Most all the staff has been great. Accept for the …

  177. Didn’t even examine me for why I was there. Did not even see a Dr., saw a NP. Everyone there is fresh out of med school and don’t know what they are doing. Heard a nurse in the hall say her superpowers ignoring patients. Incredibly neglectful staff.

  185. Do not ever go here. They are very unclean. my fathers room had someone else blood splatter on his walls. The doctors do not care about you or your loved one at all. Please go to a different hospital. They killed my father. Dr. Gohar, Ahmed …

  186. I was always concerned about the reviews for this hospital but I’ve had a baby there. It was a good experience. And I’ve used the er on multiple occasions and they’ve always been very sweet and gotten things done. It may take a while but they treat their patients well.

  187. If someone hit me with a car in their parking lot and I was 10 feet away from their front door I would still request to go to a different facility. Utter incompetence from the medical staff to the billing department and I’m sure everywhere …

  203. My husband was admitted and was on the 4th floor. All I have are good things to say. Everyone was extraordinarily great. He had the best care while we were there for 8 days. Thank you all that had a hand in making our stay pleasant from the ER to the 4th floor (nurses,respiratory, patient care tech and the Dr’s).
