(Translated by Google) On my part I do not recommend this ospital not to and doctors. …
(Translated by Google) People arrive almost dying and they have them in the waiting room when it really is an emergency… you could leave yourself alive in the waiting room and they attend to you very late. …
(Translated by Google) My one-month-old daughter arrived at the hospital with difficulty breathing and no one could help me. I waited two hours. The hospital is very dirty and very poor customer service …
I give this place negative stars!! Although it wouldn’t post without one. The registration ladies are rude and give mislead information. One told me to sit and wait to be called in waiting after an hour an a half I asked what was the …
My grandpa went in to have a procedure. During the night he had a medical event. The hospital had another patient’s emergency contact listed for my grandpa, and didn’t bother to try to locate the right information when the mistake was found. My grandma didn’t know about the emergency until the next day. Incompetent staffing.
i hate this place
Good service
Saved my life.
Awesome service
Worst of the worst
Don’t go there
Best place best workers😁 …
I almost died there
Great for medical needs
Multiple horrible experiences.
I’m better off taking care of myself
Wait too long 😕. My significant other is there rn. …
Has one here but not on the Tule Indian Reservation
Front desk is always rude when it comes to asking for “HELP” !!!
They have done me and my family well!
This place is horrible been waiting since 10 it is now 2 and still haven’t seen a doctor!
I don’t even want to complete half of a star!
I could of died in the waiting room !!!!
5 hrs in pain begging crying 4 pain medication they said eat bricks
Sooooo clean and great nurses here.
THE NURSES IN THE DELIVERY AREA ARE THE MOST AMAZING AND CARING HUMAN BEINGS EVER.. 💞… .. …
This is by far Is the worst place it should be a negative star and yes whet everyone else says about this place true ..go to Visalia
There always slacking
Showed up to a ghost town after I rolled my car 3 times and still after 2 hours of waiting to be seen no doctor
I have to give this place a mixed review as it really depends on who is on duty and how they happen to feel about your situation.
My sister went in and waited for hours so just because I tried to get help for her and asked a question I got kicked out of a room,nurses were very rude,awful staff
They do the best they can and they’re constantly trying to improve the environment, patient experience, and better their staff.
Very nice staff members and have the best coffee in the cafe they have in side the hospital.
The staff is rude and incompetent. I always heard horror stories but I gave them the benefit of doubt and that’s where I went wrong. This is by far one of the worst places I’ve been.
My wife was on horrible pain and they didnt know what was causing that pain and i told them that she was in ICU a week ago and they don listen.
Great place for care
The doctors are wonderful and the person drawing the blood any ways ur gonna be stuck here for 4 hours n 30mins
Great staff and clean facility
Horrible. Nurses are rude and they take forever to get you in a room
The coordination between staff members and with patients is so poor that it endangers patient health.
ER is the worst ever. They need to get their act. Well I think I the stupid one for going there and wasting my time.
Had my daughter here and I nearly died but I came back thanks to my doctor; Dr. Salas and the nurses there at the hospital, they had so much patience with me😇 …
I am here today with my wife I am asking to get a female Doctor they said they don’t have they don’t even try to find out one …
They don’t even respect it
I had to call of work because my girlfriend was SCHEDULED to be induce based on her blood pressure being high had to call in to work risking my job only income provider and they made us call 3 times throught the day waisting our time we …
The emergency really needs to step up the lady that sighns you in really rude I brought my mother at noon its 9pm and for her to say theres more important ones to attend like pancrias isn’t dangerous.
I went to the er for pain in my back and neck and yet they gave me a somos and discharged me….. I left the er the same way came there. They need to close that hospital down if they can’t help nobody
My mom went in 2 days ago to get a throne removed from finger, cut finger and put stiches….now stiches came apart and throne came out of different area on finger ….it’s point less to go here I really wished they close this place down …..IT CAUSES MORE HARM THAN GOOD!!!!
My girl went to the e.r at Sierra view and they told her it was just a headache and we went to kewah in visalia and she ended up having to stay in hospital cuz she was really sick so sierra view bad place to go
The only thing positive about sierra view its proximity. But if you want good and fast service best make the trip to visalia. The employees dont even want to be treated there and that says something!
The nurses in the labor and delivery were so nice an friendly! Through my recovery they helped me so much . 💜.
I highly recommend them 🙌🏻 …
The PERSON WHO IS IN CHARGE DOESN’T DO ANYTHING ABOUT COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SO CALLED ER DOCTORS BUT TAKE THEIR SIDE AND THIS IS THE WORST ER IN TULARE COUNTY ALL THE DOCTORS DO IS ACCUSE YOU SEEKING PAIN MEDICATION AND RUN A BUNCH OF TEST …
The emergency room (Emergency dept 791-2775)…. it’s a very unorganized and unprofessional. My mom has high blood pressure and there response is oh its just a little high…. hmmm that’s why she gets sent here ….. wow.
Horribly slow process in the ER compared to other prominent hospitals that actually stands by their commitment of excellence when it comes to urgency and patient care I say this because I’ve sadly known a patient that passed from waiting too long in this ER.as director Shay Moore should really re-evaluate and step up her protocol.
Sierra View Medical Center this Hospital saved my life.. I wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for the Doctors and Nurses and staff.. I had a 10%chance of living I was in a coma for 3 months and they work around the clock with me never giving up hope.. So I’m so grateful to this hospital for giving me a second chance..
Was diagnosed with Valley Fever 2 months ago, rarely go to the Hospital, have received X-rays, CT, ultra sound, MRI, along with lab work, and today on my Birthday went in for guided needle biopsy of my liver, in which made me very nervous …
Needs a bigger ER need more beds please! Was there for 8hrs waiting on a bed then finally got a bed then waited 2 more hours for the ER Doctor never came so I left THIS PLACE IS A JOKE!!!!!
Sitting here at the hospital with my dead fetus inside of me, they gave me a room then they took it back. Now I’m back in the waiting room.. least they could have done something to keep me comfortable
Well yeah the ER Wait is long at Times but I never really had a bad experience with rude nurses ,I had all my babies there I was treated very nice I really don’t have an issue with this hospital
First thing you see when you walk into the ER. Not very reassuring on cleanliness. Long waits as well. BLOOD ON THE ENTERY WAY OF THE HOSPITAL!!!!!
Can’t believe I’m giving this place a 1 star rating. This place is a joke! Would not recommend if you want to come out alive. Would rather travel somewhere else to receive better care! These drs do not care.
Honestly Idk why this hospital has so many bad reviews…I guess it depends on the day u go if they are in a bad mood or good mood…The times that I had gone to the ER for myself and my daughter we have been treated very good…Also in the …
DO NOT SEEK HELP HERE!! Horrible care, they only do the bare minimum to be able to discharge patients. Staff is not competent in their skills. If you need actual care go to any other hospital, do not go here!
Moved to the area a few years back. Went there once & NEVER will I ever go there again….
Feel like dying? Look no further! Come on in, take a seat and kick back you could probably go unnoticed till you meet your demise! Feeling thirsty? Drink from the faucets, it’s more chemically altered than microwave sludge! What’s that you …
Hi my name is Joyce Middleton went to the ER 2/17/20 TO remove a wounded VAC. DRESSING FROM MY CHEST THAT WOULD NOT COME OFF. DR NGUYEN David😀and his team of Beautiful nurses Jazmine,Lanise,Danise, that worked so hard on getting that wounded VAC. OFF ME!!!!! THANK YOU ALL FOR THE GREAT WORK YOU DO FOR ME ❤😀 THIS TEAM IS 5🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 …
B******* my stepdad went for a checkup and just to see the doctor and gotsome X-rays they build him $6,000 🤬😡he didn’t even receive a pain pill😤 and can forget 18 years ago they killed my little baby brother 💔🥺there too with the wrong shot for the wrong person so sad we only have this porterville hospital .. …
I would never recommend going to the ER here! Apparently they have only one doctor so we have waited over 3 hours and still have not seen a doctor! With the amount of people that go to the ER in this town you would think that they could afford to have more than one doctor!! I should have driven to Visalia Hospital!!!
This is by far the worst hospital. Especially labor/ delivery I was scheduled to be induced and it’s been a few days that they just keep giving me the run arounds. And to top it off I’m in so much pain but since I’m not dilated enough they …
There is a reason why this place went from HOSPITAL to MEDICAL CENTER and it can’t be for any good reason’s right. Well after multiple bad experiences here if we need urgent care we go to Visalia and if it was for the kids we went to the …
The wait for anyone who is in need of emergency medical treatment in the ER is over 4-8 hours. In my personal opinion the ER is very un-professional & the medical staff act like the patient is a tremendous personal burden on them.
Was left w my son at the ER for over 7 hrs horrible never again … worst experience ever
I only could write a review if I gave a star! They had me deliver with NO medication the doctor popped my water causing my baby and I to BE in distress!! I’ve had 5 children and this place was an absolute nightmare !!! Even in the ER it …
Chris Seitz P.A. from Sierra View Medical Center was very professional and the excellent staff their was able to quickly supply my own Physician Dr. Mating with all the needed information that Dr. Mating needed to continue my treatment. …
The doctor didn’t run any tests on my son when he came in there with his right side hurting. then gave him pain pills and told him he was free to go. He is still there. I called and told them he cant walk and can hardly talk cause the pain …
I went to get stat mammo and breast ultrasound. There is a lump and I have a long family history of breast cancer. It’s been days and the rad still hasn’t read the study. This hospital is the worst when it comes to patient care. They should seriously be investigated.
If there were a way to give it negative stars, I would. If I were in need of dire medical attention and had the choice between being taken here or just left to die, I would choose being left to die. I feel I would have a greater likelihood …
Been here over 5 1/2 hours. Was here for almost 4 before we got a room, nurse asked a few questions and that was it. My daughter is in pain and would like some relief and sleep. I won’t come here again unless I’m dying and even then I’ll think twice about it. Horrible
My father had a very bad experience while in the hospital. Our family decided that it was necessary for a family member to be with him at all times so that they wouldn’ t mistreat him. Very sad! No one should be mistreated–especially when they are sick.
The OB / Labor Floor was great while i had went into labor and finally got sent from the ER . While i was giving labor my sons Dr.Lisa Garbner she was great. They worked as team and it went fast . Now being discharged took sooo long. But …
Would be 5 stars but staff violated HIPPA during my wife’s stay. Her status was coming from every direction except from the one person that had legal authorization to be updated. Me her husband. Talked to them over and over. I am being ignored hoping it will go away. I need a HIPPA attorney
Security was extremely rude and unprofessional. Jesse was his name. Emergency room made the family stand out in 109 degree weather to wait for our grandmother who was laying in a hallway waiting on a room.
This hospital should be shut down or get better employees!!! I got there at 1:00am & end up leaving at 4:50am without being seen. I find it very unprofessional that the employees that were there all they did was be on their phones & talk …
This hospital has no regard to you as a patient.. your time doesn’t mean anything to them… if you go to the e.r. forget about having a life and having things to do.. they take hours and hours to get results back to you.. they don’t care …
One of the worsted ER u can go to the guy in the front so dam rude. And u can be dying and yet the keep u in the writing room they need to fix that asap
Close to home but if want better service go else where. ER waiting time horrible unless you have an RN as your friend than you won’t have to wait They will manage to get you right in , witness that . Brought my niece for girl is due she had …
Waited over 4hrs in er waiting room with acute abdominal pain was discharged after being told I needed xrays and pelvic exam with out having either done also no pain medication. Very rude doctor she would pull back curtain and look at me …
If you want to wait 2-3 hours in the ER waiting room and for them just to send you home (and going to another hospital and they keep you) this would be a good place to go too. Horrible Place better off going to another hospital. Just in it for the $.
Mom when to have fluid drained from her abdomen. The process introduced a flesh eating bacteria in to her abdomen and died 2 days later. Go to a different hospital if u value ur life
The staff in in pre/post surgery and on the surgery/Medical 3rd floor were extremely warm and caring. I couldn’t have asked for better nurses, CNA’s even the housekeepers. Thank you for making my surgery/recovery as comfortable as possible.
My husband was brought in here by ambulance in afib it took almost 24 hours to put him in a room less then 12 hour’s later Dr Jones the hospitilatist came in trying to release him with a bp of 211/117 I had to call Medicare to appeal it so …
13 hours wait for absolutely no answers. Rude staff and “doctors” who don’t know what there doing. Then they send you home with the wrong number for your follow up. And it’s almost impossible to get ahold of anyone.
Hospitals should have high standards. One thing wrong ruins the experience cause well its your or your loved ones life on the line. Ive seen sick contagious people on the same floor as people being wheeled in for surgery. Long waits to see …
We only go to this ER if the emergency is so bad that we can’t make it to Kaweah 40 minutes away. I recently had to go to ER. I couldn’t talk but was aware of everything. The doctor was RUDE! To say the nurse & phlebotomist were BAD …
Worst hospital I have ever been to, staff were so rude to other patients it makes me very sad to see this hospital even operable. They seriously need some new staff and new management.
Not to mention the 8 hour wait .
Came in with my mom because she had a severe stomach pain and wouldn’t stop throwing up. Sierra View hospital helped her out a lot and she is making a good recovery now 🙂 The nurses were very nice to us and kept checking up.
came in for emergency treatment for my husbands life threatening condition after being shown to a hallway bed seen by a p.a. My husbands while suffering with chills and fatigue. Was set upon by nurse phillip who upon seeing me and my …
NO THANKS
Never had been here till last week but I came here after a whole 24 hours of …
In this time of Covid isolation and being unable to visit someone in the hospital, it seems to me more important than ever that the hospital communicates with loved ones who have a hard time finding out what is going on. The patient (me at …
You should really have a friendlier person greeting people at the front because the lady( shall remain nameless unless she keeps it up) up front is so rude and would rather clean and do other stuff rather than help the line of people waiting. She has 1 job right?
My sister brought me to the ER us both thinking that even though I was feeling awful that it wasn’t life threatening, but I was taken to the back after a short wait and after my EKG things happened FAST. I was having a heart attack and …
The nurses are very rude, my grandma went into surgery a little after 12pm the surgery was supposed to last 1 hr to a hr and a half she didn’t get get out until 5. The nurses were playing phone tag with me. They had called me and said she …
I came here because of severe abdominal pain, waited more than 6 hours for the results. I could’ve gone to a professional hospital in LA and this hospital still wouldn’t have given me my results. I also talked with a guy who came to the …
Sorry but my mom always told me I’d you don’t have anything nice to say then don’t say anything at all. For this one time in going against my mom’s suggestion. The emergency room is horrible. My sister in law was in the emergency room for …
This hospital is the worst ! My dad final days of life the nurses and cnas on the third floor left my poor father laying in his poop and pee for longer than an hour. Took me several times just to have someone come change him well the cnas …
Best experience in OB/Delivering both times my daughters were born there (5 stars). However the ER is horrible, staff does the very minimum just to get you out. PA was not friendly at all just came in and out of the room with out giving a …
Staff at emergency were so rude. You can help people without being rude or giving nasty comments or putting people down. They need people skills. Some professionalism and common courtesy from staff would be nice. I guess Sierra view doesn’t …
I would give no star if I was allowed to but I have to give one in order to write a review. I have never been to this hospital but it is a nightmare. The registered nurse is rude along with the old lady who accompanies her. It is as if …
Went to the ER and I’m completely satisfied with their help the nurse was so nice and showed she really cares. They made me feel so comfortable and glad I came here . Wayyyy better than kaweah delta. Kaweah delta doesn’t give a s*** if you’re feeling ill just sorry feel better but sierra view went above and beyond.
My personal experience with this hospital has been a “mixed bag”; both good and poor.
The main complaint is the ER, which has overall good, caring nurses but DREADFUL …
They maybe deserve half a star…. that should be an option. The nurses are unwelcoming, stand offish, and seemingly disinterested in patient care. They act as if requesting help or information is a major imposition on their time. …
The first greet from dr was, “you’ve come here 55 times”. I’ve lived here for 8 years and have been to emergency room only 3 other times. I had to request blood lab work because he intended not to request it. I get more blood drawn for my …
Horrible Emergency Room, took my mom last night at 6pm. She had been throwing up for 2 weeks straight and lost 7lbs she looked so pale and could barely stand I didn’t want to wait till next week for her appointment with her oncologist so I …
I was recently hospitalized at Sierra View for five days. The care that I received was excellent. The doctors and nurses were attentive and kind, and ensured that I was well enough prior to be discharged. Thank you to SVMC’s teams! Keep up the good work! You are truly heroes!
I had surgery at this hospital this past week. I will say I was very skeptical and worried because of all the reviews I’ve read. …
Worst hospital trip ever.
Not a single member of the staff even acted like they cared about what was going on. I had to ask for a blanket 5 times before finally getting one. The doctor …
Went in to ER with symptoms of a stroke. Waited over 5 hours to get a room. The only reason I’m giving 1 star is for the first Doctor I seen. I don’t know his name, but he immediately ordered tests, showed a tremendous amount of concern did …
DO NOT GO HERE!
My family member was admitted here and the discharge planner only gave us a selected choice for a Nursing Rehabilitation center. None of my family lives in …
My mother is in the hospital for observation. A cat scan was ordered by her doctor eight hours ago. It has not yet been done, to my knowledge. I don’t know, though because when I called for an update, they hung up on me. Also the night …
As a former employee of 26 years at Sierra View District Hospital I have a lot to say about the hospital. We had some great leaders there through out the years. It all stopped when they merged with the Lindsay hospital. Alot of my staff …
I was at the emergency room for three hours for kidney stones. They did blood work and still had like eleven patients ahead of me. Had to drive to Delano hospital for treatment with “that pain” which took another hour. I never received …
This hospital is only good for non life threatening case like broken hands or feet. As of February 4 ,2022 the dont have a working MRI machine so if you have a emergency and you can get to kaweah Delta in visilia ca . Go there.
I would give this establishment a no-star review if I could. The amount of women I personally know that have either actually DIED or suffered life-threatening symptoms after delivering their children here is outrageous and tragic. The …
My son was seen there on 8/23/2020.. For a deep wound on his elbow . all staff was great and caring from the time we arrived . His nurse in the ER was sweet and caring. And comforting to my son when he was scared to get the stiches done.. …
Came in to the ER after a self-inflicted suicide attempt the day before, to ask for a mental evaluation, waited around an hour and a half to speak to an assigned nurse (not the staff that did basic heart rate tests and allergy questions) …

Our family first time experiencing a family member stay in Porterville Hospital and I must say we really loved how the staff treated my Mom and all the family members that went to see and stayed there with her. The nurses are so friendly …
This hospital is a joke. They do not care about the best interest of their patients. Avoid it at all costs. Drs, ESPECIALLY ER drs are so rude and brush you off like you are making up your medical problem. Most of the time you have to go to …
every time i go im always greeted by the best staff i understand i am not the only who has an emergency and i know i have to wait my turn . i don’t understand anyone who cant wait. we are all there because we want to get help and it …
I think I understand the negative reviews and I’m sorry for all the people saying that they lost loved ones after coming here. I called to ask a question because my sister has abdominal pain and the two women I spoke to sounded like they …
1. thanks to them they cut my mom’s leg why because they never attended her the right way so she had to go to Vaisala there they told her she had an infection so they had to amputate it… …
10/10 DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS DEATH TRAP OF A PLACE. You’d go to this hospital if you’re wanting to die. If you love your life and actually want medical care you‘ll find better care in Fresno or Bakersfield. These people treated my mother …
I’ve read the management is bad and it is not a good place to work. That filters down. to the patients. “I’m just doing my job.” is not an excuse one wants to hear when you are ill. I hope the management fixes their relationship with the staff.
They had my grandmother here tonight. After they decided to send her home at ten o’clock at night, the nurse said they would get aps involved with my grandma’s case because none could pick her up. I of course got quite upset and then the …
Do not go to this hospital if you can avoid it… Just saying… They are not there for patient care, just there to get a check.. No one was rude, but they act like it’s a morgue…
Twice I went to the imaging department for tests. The first time I waited for over an hour AFTER my appointed time before I gave up and left. The called me later and asked me to return the following day for these tests. I did and was seen …
Kris at the front desk is slow and rude. I was 4th in line just to check in and it took her a hr to get to me. One lady before me didn’t speak English so Kris made her wait 15 mins before she call someone on the phone to translate for her. …
Went to the ER for dka (diabetic issues) and they did a urine and blood test but the doctor comes in saying that I was not in dka which IS DANGEROUS, he sent me home with my blood sugar over 360 and large ketones after I stated I vomited 5 …
Absolutely dreadful. I have come here multiple times for heart related problems and even after multiple diagnosis they have the audacity to discharge and just simply tell me to “come back” and that “i’m fine” even though i’m physically not. …
Worst place you can go to . Sucks when your own city hospital stands around and has people continually asking when they’re getting help . Such a failing company who lets lives go and can’t even get someone in
Very nervous about hospitals, bad experience with several emergency rooms. This place was hands down the best! Staff were all friendly and helpful. Many tests run quickly and efficiently.
I was hospitalized in the middle of the Pandemic in 2020 for another emergency condition here and my experience was wonderful! I am thankful for the night nurse I had who was so kind she tried to help me in so many ways, but my day nurses …
This is the worst ER in the central valley. If i could give it a minus star, i would. Their staff is rude and unprofessional. I spent 6 hours just so they could tell me that they had nothing to help my pain. I never saw a doctor and the …
This is the worst hospital I’ve ever had to deal with. Do not seek medical attention at this awful place. I definitely recommend making an effort to drive to any other hospital but this one. I was in the ER with the worst and most …
Two of my children had croup this week and we found ourselves in the ER twice struggling to breathe. This was my first experience taking children to an ER and due to the low rating here I hesitated even coming in & wanted to take my …
I got the results I needed Staff was tired but very nice and helpful. People are angry at staff but it’s understandable seeing how many people go in I would have quick the same day this job is not for everyone. Thank You
Worst experience in my life the doctors are non professional they didn’t found what I have in 3 times taking my test now because of them I have a severe anemia cuz they do things on purpose so that we come back and pay everytime for tests …
Trash place to work or be cared for. Nurses are bullies here and patient’s are milked of their insurance medicaid/Medicare money before being discharged. Wouldn’t bring a dog here for care.
Absolutely horrible hosptial. If your able I would take yourself or family members else where . You can’t get a straight answer from anyone, trying to get staff to call back is nearly impossible . I will say Front desk staff were very …
The unprofessionalism from the staff and management is just sad. I have came several times to this ER in different occasions and every-time without fail I have seen the lack of training and communication. I recommend you go to the Visalia …
ER staff is not professional or accommodating. They waste your time and then charge exorbitant fees. They wont answer simple questions like what the current wait time for intake of a patient is over the phone, they would rather you be …
Went there for terrible migraine, they acted like I was looking for drugs, I have only ever gone one other time and it was also for a migraine so bad I couldn’t even see straight. …
My husband ran into a fence and his arms was open and you could see the tendon, he went to the ER and was seen immediately, stitched and sent home in an hour. If I knew the doctor who fixed his arm, I would give him and the entire staff …

First time here. I had to take my son to the Emergency Room and I was amazed by the assistance we received. We were directed to the right building by kind and helpful people. Everyone was helpful, kind, and my son received great care by a …
There are so many facets to a hospital and the care one receives. I have had both good and bad experiences and moments at this hospital. Most of the doctors and nurses are wonderful. They care, they mean well and in general try to be …
