South Georgia Medical Center Reviews ( 250 )

  1. I had an awful experience when I had my mammogram on Tuesday 1/4/22. The technician was very rude and hateful. I am disabled and walk with a walker. I told her I couldn’t stand there for a very long time without falling so keep my walker …

  2. The nursing staff was absolutely phenomenal! I couldn’t have asked for any better care than what I received. While all of my nurses went above & beyond, there were a few in the 5T unit such as Jessica, AJ & Rob, who truly went the extra mile in helping me get better & get to where I could go home. I can’t sing them enough praises!

  3. This hospital has the most amazing and caring staff/people I’ve ever met in my life. I went for the birth of my son and the amount of staff I met over the span of 5 days was a lot and EACH and EVERY employee made my experience as enjoyable …

  4. My son was injured in a baseball game and suffered a dislocated shoulder. The quality of service he received from this hospital, Dr. Flail and her team in the ER was first class. They saw my son quickly, got him out of pain and did …

  5. Every person who was working in Professional Building on January 3 were amazing. It was packed, everyone was kind; they took their time to ensure that I had everything I needed and I walked out knowing that I truly was cared about. From the …

  6. They messed up my hernia surgery. And the robotic machine had it into a knot and the surgeon said that they couldn’t fix it and that I had to find a hospital not affiliated with SGMC

  7. I have never had a bad experience when visiting South Georgia Medical Center. The staff is attentive ,professional and courteous. Who could ask for more? In spite of the pandemic everything appears to run smoothly

  8. I had previously visited bacon county hospital located in alma, ga and they said I didn’t have glass in my foot. After the care and patience of south Georgia medical center, they did multiple x rays and referred me to a podiatrist! Couldn’t be happier

  9. Worst experience ever. It always is. I was having terrible back spasms and couldn’t lay down anywhere. Was given a blanket to lay on the floor. Staff were also laughing at a lady clearly on something and just shrugged her off. DO NOT GO HERE.

  10. I’m not gonna lie, I was super skeptical and anxious about this hospital because of the mixed reviews. I just had my baby a few days ago and let me tell you. After some back and forth we were given an exemption for certain circumstances we …

  11. I hurt my hand and wrist at work and I was sent over for X-rays for the injury, I was treated very well and everyone was very professional and curtious, Brandi was my X-ray technician and she did an amazing job talking me thru the procedure, so my time at South Georgia Occupational and Industrial Health Center was excellent

  12. The service from the technician performing the procedure was outstanding. She explained the procedure and the process and then answered my questions. She continuously ensured I was comfortable and put me at ease throughout the procedure. Great job

  13. Be wary, even if the urgent care is in network, the doctor that you see may not be and you will be stuck paying a large doctor bill in addition to the urgent care bill. It should be illegal to have health care providers that do not accept …

  14. The nurse was helpful but the doctor just said a 2 sentence to me they was supposed to call me back and let me know what the Radiology say nobody never called me only thing they did was gave me ibuprofen and put a splint that barely can fit …

  15. YOU WILL DIE AT THIS HOSPITAL!!!! Negligent, Incompetent staff!!! My husband was brought in by ambulance for a heart attack. I watched him beg and cry in the hall for help! They sat with no urgency and watched! Once finally in a room, a …

  16. We waited for over 8 hours only to be told it would be several more hours before they could see my 10 year old who was crying & doubled over in abdominal pain! Absolutely ridiculous

  17. I had a stress test scheduled at 8:45am. I was told not to eat anything 3 hours before, which meant 5am. Needless to say, I couldn’t eat breakfast… thinking I would be home by 9:30, since I was told that it would take only 30 minutes and …

  18. Had an awesome experience at the Sleep Center. I was a little nervous about my sleep study. Each team member helped put me at ease and helped me understand what was going on. I was told details about each step. Each person was kind and understanding. And i got some of the best sleep to boot!

  19. Impossible to talk to anyone after the service. No follow up support at all. Tried to call for complications but wasn’t able to talk to anyone. They would not return phone calls.

  20. I went into er with chest pains and numbness. I’ve been here over 9 hours and still have not seen a doctor. I went to the administrator about the issue after 4 and a half hours and still sitting here. I’m very disappointed with the service and staff here.

  21. Well, it was time for my annual lab work for a physical exam. My experiences for the last five years at the SGMC Lab have been very pleasant and I do not have a single complaint. From the friendliness of the receptionist having to were a …

  22. Never going to SGMC again. They’ll make their own decisions for you and take all right away from your personal wishes. They’ll also send you a nice bill in the mail which you’ll pay. Then send another saying past due with a balance still …

  23. I visited the Professional Building Saturday for Mammos and Mocktails. This section of the building has it together!! I wish the rest of the hospital was as wonderful. Thank you ladies who worked the event. Very professional, efficient, and friendly!

  24. They are always on time and very pleasant. My dr has to give me an order to have my test there and it’s very easy for me to make the appointment through central scheduling

  25. Thanks to Dr Hanna and the awesome nursing staff on the 3rd floor for taking such good care of me. Thanks Chandler, Ellen,Maddison,Josh, Sara and Kristen for being the best nurses… Hope I didnt leave anyone out. Would recommend this great hospital.

  26. After hearing stories of registrations not still opened, even for seniors, long lines at vaccine site, and other worries occurring at other cities, we were concerned about our own experience. …

  27. I recently had a colonoscopy performed by Dr. Castellano. Although this is a procedure none of us looks forward to,

  28. Went to the emergency room at 8:30 at night at the South Georgia campus in Nashville Georgia got in very quick to be a Sunday night but the PA that come in and attended to me was very rude would not recommend him if I could remember his …

  29. My daughter went to get her J tube seen about. After waiting several hours, the tube was completely out. 10:45 until 4:30 waiting to even be seen. Finally on call surgeon came it. Looked and said the hole was closed. This has happened one …

  30. Excellent service from our ER nurse. My mom was in the ER for most of the day for a heart problem. Our nurse, Elizabeth, was knowledgeable, attentive and kind for the entire time. A good experience for a stressful time due to our nurse.

  31. Staff unprofessional and inappropriate. Dr. Upheld a charge where nothing was done for patient on previous visit and money wasn’t returned. I was told to let Dr. Rickman look at it to see if he could remove the mole on my face. When I …

  32. I went in trying to get checked out after a bad fall at work. I told them my shoulder was swollen after X-rays he said it’s just a bruise and sent me on my way without recommendations (few days off to rest, no meds nothing)… next morning …

  33. I had my baby here and let me tell you their nurses are the most caring medical professionals I have ever come across, they are super polite, attentive, listens to you, makes your stay comfortable at the hospital with words of encouragement …

  34. South Georgia Medical Center of Valdosta helped me in more ways than just taking care of my medical needs. The doctors, nurses, and other staff members showed that there are still good people out there that care. I have a different look at …

  35. South Georgia Medical Center has not been good to me and my health well beings. SGMC has been the worst care I have ever experienced. The ER is a night mare. I went to the hospital with extreme pain, nausea, vomiting, had a seizure in the …

  36. The staff at SGMC are the best. They are very caring and professional. I was on the Covid floor due to having Covid and pneumonia. For six days, I could not have any visitors. Each and every person that came in my room, took the time to talk to me. Thank you to each and every person that took care of me during my stay.

  37. Dr. Pisula was absolutely amazing. I can’t stress enough how much this dr. Took his time to explain to me and my husband the options with our infant. We admitted our 6 month old son with a few issues along with a fever and could not figure …

  38. Dr. Luke Seibolt is exceptional. He listens with care, is kind and willing to carefully review the problems of a 89 year old senior. He has an excellent nurse and willing to extend his expertise even beyond his Cardiology specialty. I feel very secure with this doctor.

  39. Service was great , staff was friendly and timely . Only complaint I had was that me and another person waited in the hallway to be called while the two techs were discussing a bad work experience loudly for everyone to hear. After telling …

  40. The overall experience was okay. I have breathing problems and can’t wear a mask. No sign on the door. No one checking temps. So I walked in without one. Person at front desk was on the phone so I waited. Once finished she asked my name and …

  41. My 7 year old son had to have an EEG at SGMC outpatient. He was VERY nervous and in tears prior to going into the hospital for the procedure. Jessica, the EEG tech, worked magic with him. She was so patient, caring, and kind. She explained …

  42. This was the first experience I couldn’t wait to rave about! I was rushed by ambulance for a first seizure. They had run all the tests and had me discharged within a few hours. The Dr. And nurses were outstanding! I have absolutely no complaints this visit only praises and appreciation!

  43. I visited SGMC for a mammogram. The location was very easy to find and there was ample parking. The facility was clean, staff was courteous, professional and the service was done and completed in a timely manner. Overall, if needing this service once more, I would return. 👍 …

  44. My PCT Ms.Ashley was very professional and I felt comfortable when my blood was drawn. My RN and Dr. took time to explain to me what was being done and what kind of medication I was given. My wait time was a little longer this time around. Mostly everything is did in triage to speed up the process which is ok.

  45. I loved the staff at Southern OB. Thank you for making my experience as painless & easy as possible. The nurses & Dr Culbreth were caring, kind & considerate as well as attentive to my needs. I suffer from bad anxiety & they made me feel …

  46. I was called and given an appointment time several days prior to the CT scan. When I arrived the person at the desk tried telling me they were overbooked and she was rescheduling everyone. I told her I was given an appointment days before …

  47. The wait time is so ridiculous. There needs to be a better way to screen those who are wasting everyone’s time and actual emergencies. Once I was taken to a room the staff were quick, efficient and amazing. But I sat in the waiting room for …

  48. On behalf on Nell Green and myself: we would like to thank Ms. Bobbie in the ER on Friday 2/25 for such an amazing job with my momma.
    She is soo amazing and treats you like family. Stayed by my moms side and cared …

  49. I went to the urgent care and after several hours was sent to the ER because the CT scanner wasn’t working. At the ER I waited several more hours before the CT scan. Then was told that labs should’ve been ordered as well but never had been …

  50. I drove a sheet metal screw into my finger and decided to go in for a tetanus shot. The waiting room was very full but I was seen within 25 mins. I have terrible anxiety just being near hypodermic needles so big thanks to Rachel for how she …

  51. I received excellent care from my triage nurse Lyndon when I brought my 2 month old in to be seen. He was very attentive and caring. Although the lobby was full of other sick patients he still provided excellent care to my baby and was very …

  52. If I could give a 0 star rating, I absolutely would. Very rarely do I ever give a bad review. No one ever called or notified me of my CT results. These results contained a rather large 5.3cm ascending aortic aneurysm that almost took me …

  53. The staff was great individually. However, no one was on one accord and it caused me to worry along with confusion. They were very quick to help me with my daughter and I appreciate them for that. I had an awesome paramedic who was concerned and showed he cared and that made me feel very good. Thank you SGMC!!

  54. Waited 8 hours in the lobby with Right Lower Quadrant pain. I have never seen this before in my life and I worked at an ER for 5 years. And it was only 8 hours because I left. Never saw a doctor or a ER room. Go anywhere else.

  55. Where do I even start. When we arrived the hospital was on lock down due to some sort of fight. They would not let my husband come in with me. So I was there alone more than 5 hours. I did not see a single other person alone. For a while I …

  56. Nearly everyone I interacted with was pleasant, quick, and efficient. My healthcare team seemed knowledgeable and confident. Intake/office staff was helpful and sympathetic. The experience is slightly marred by the fact that healthcare in …

  57. It was obviously a busy day at SGMC professional building for the lab dept, and I found the wait time was quick. The employees did their jobs and got the customers in and out quickly. It’s always nice seeing the lab tech who draws my blood, she and I have made a friendship.

  58. My first trip to SGMC was vary pleasant, everyone I met was vary helpful
    and friendly. Met with Dr. Hannah and his staff and I really was pleased with the amount of time they spent with me. He completely explained what I had going on …

  61. I had to take my son to Urgent care last week after he fell playing outside. He needed a couple stitches on his forehead and was very nervous to go to the Doctor. Once we got there Keely and Dr Adams were so sweet to him and made him and I …

  62. My experience was not good due to a VERY lengthy wait time. My appointment was scheduled for 9a.m. I checked in before 9 a.m. and didn’t finish up with everything until 1:30 p.m. My actual procedure only took 15 to 20 minutes. The best part …

  63. I went in about dead and before I knew it I was well and back home
    The staff was very kind and answer all my questions and dr were real good they know what they are doing

  64. The wait was not long. The staff was friendly. My nurses and doctor in the er were very friendly and informative. Nurse Mary Kay and I can’t remember the other young lady name. Everyone made me feel at ease. Wonderful experience.

  65. Spent almost 5 hours in line in the ER at SGMC today, I needed to get stitches on my hand to stop the bleeding. After 5 hours, still didn’t get help but they made me do an X ray that I didn’t need to increase my bill. No one even looked at …

  71. I waited over 4 hours to be seen while I actively threw up in the ER! Only to have them tell me I was okay and sent me home with fluids. I was not! I ended up In another er less than 12 hours later with a full bowl blockage I was told they …

  80. Night staff is lazy and never gets patients out. I sat there for six hours last night and all they did was take my blood work, I asked for a time frame and the lady told me that I just have to sit and wait. I was physically screaming in …

  81. This is the worst hospital ever. So many people walking out. One lady had went through 3 oxygen tanks and still hadn’t been seen. Just ridiculous. They need another hospital or better people running it.

  82. Sep 9 at 4p I went to the ER to get scans done ( had tremors in my right leg and had just been released from a different hospital- this was on advice from my Dr at the “other hospital “ Archbold in Thomasville) …

  85. South Georgia Medical discharged my mother to return back to the nursing home. She had a bladder infection and had developed Sepsis.. She died 2 hours later at the nursing home. South Georgia Medical Center is not a good hospital.

  86. Horrible horrible experience that almost killed my dad. He was there two extra weeks because of a mistake by a nurse. Ines from ICU made our experience, especially my dad’s, extremely horrible. People like her have no business in nursing. She was legit the worst.

  87. The nurse was very nice and did their job well. Everytime I went they made sure I was comfortable and I didn’t need anything before they left the room. Thanks for all yall did for me. Unit 2 nurse thanks

  91. Was told to be there 30 minutes before scheduled time and building didn’t even open until 10 minutes before scheduled time.
    However, they got me in and out quickly and I really like this office…just need to be more clear about what time to be there when you have a early appointment.

  92. The visit to SGMC for Eugene’s knee appt with Dr. Oscar Aguero was great! Everything was very professional but yet was relaxed not rushed up. Dr. Aguero was very thorough and answered all questions we had. We also received the summary on the MyChart portal by the time we got home! Thank you.

  93. They made Shan and I feel very comfortable. I appreciate when the doctor and nurses interact with my child. And not treat her like she’s a nobody because she’s special needs.

  99. This was my first visit with Dr Aguero and he was very personable and professional. He listened to my problems and recommended a treatment plan that I was happy with. The nursing staff was very nice but I only got Keisa’s name.. Thanks

  100. This is by far the worst hospital I have ever visited in my life. On the way home from out of town I brought my 9 year old daughter in there with high likelihood of appendicitis. She was in very bad pain. 2 hours later my daughter hasn’t …

  101. This was a great experience. Having a bunch of medical tests are stressful enough. The people here made it stress free and fast. Very clean facility and the staff very friendly and professional.

  102. Great place with very caring doctors! The staff in second to none always making you feel welcome and ready to help. If you are having a less than pleasant day you will feel better before leaving. I’m blessed to have a medical center this great close to us..

  103. Everyone at the Dasher Heart Center were very friendly and compassionate to me. I appreciate Ms Lisa who started my IV and Ms Deloris who helped me through the stress test. There were others in the room that were very good at their job and very professional.

  106. Dr Chieng wanted me to get and X-ray for possible kidney stones. I showed up at Smith Northview without an appointment and was treated very well.

  107. Very skilled practitioner. The MRI staff was so friendly and very accommodating! Dr Mackey took the time to be sure all of my concerns were addressed. I would recommend SGMC to friends and family! Very Happy Overall!

  108. The best medical service ever. Thanks to Dr. Griner, the ER staff, ICU staff and the covid wing on the 4th floor. We could not have asked for a more concerned and helpful group of people. Thanks for all you did for my husband, George.

  109. The 13 hours spent in the Emergency room was awful. I had a kidney stone and I was completely miserable from 11:30 pm until around 8am when I was finally taken to the back. Awful. Once I actually got back to see someone, they were great.

  110. The E-check in saved about 30 seconds! I waited longer at the front entry since I had to physically check-in before I could go to the walk-in lab.
    I had set an appointment for the lab and after being checked in ( to verify my …

  111. I had an appointment this morning for a MRI. The experience was good from the start to finish. The registration staff was friendly and professional, the X-ray receptionist noticed I had been waiting for about 15 minutes and kept me …

  113. Staff was wonder! Ambulance drivers were great, triage nurses were great, every person we encountered were all great. This would by 5 star review but when you arrive by ambulance and then after triage you are rolled out to the lobby to sit throwing up for 4 hours straight is unacceptable. Great staff but wait time is beyond ridiculous!

  114. Arrived on Saturday late afternoon and ER was already almost full. Check in was quick and triage was great. Even though I required a number of tests they were done rather quickly. Wonderful staff in every area I was treated. Highly …

  116. My visit to Urgent Care went smooth and the wait time was very little. I was take care of by pediatric nurse Mandy aka Aunt Tammy. She made me feel really comfortable and was there to assist me with anything I needed. She has a genuine …

  117. I had a total thyroidectomy done by Dr. Davis who is phenomenal at what he does! All of the nurses and techs who assisted me were incredible as well. Jimmy is one nurse that I remember easily, very kind and personable! Overall a wonderful experience during a very stressful time for me. 🙂

  118. Shout out to Trey the emergency room RN that took care of us during my daughter’s allergic reaction. He was awesome! Very informative and I could tell he took pride in what he does. He told my daughter “Don’t worry I’m going to take good care of you.” and he was true to his word. Thanks again Trey!!!

  122. This was my first experience with SGMC. I traveled from 2 hours away for my surgery so not only was I nervous but tired. I was greeted by kind, friendly staff at 5:30 am. From the time I walked in the doors until the time I was wheeled out …

  123. Although wait time was longer than usual, staff addressed patients needs in rapid succession. Having fasted since 8pm the previous night, my desire to locate food was paramount! The initial Intake Clerk was very professional, expedient …

  124. My experience with the ER staff was exceptional. My nurses were Elaina and Madeline!!! These 2 were very professional yet caring. They were very attentive to the needs of my husband. The ER doctor who’s name is Dr. Mucciarone went above and …

  125. Gave a one cause that’s the lowest it would let me put absolutely ridiculous excuse for a hospital from the point you walk in the door the ER is absolutely filthy with used ekg stickers stuck to the chairs trash and garbage litters the …

  126. Wait time is super long. I was only able to arrive at 11:30ish pm. Ended up asking to leave at 3am. I was only getting a simple Bicillin shot.

  127. 2nd time in the past several months to the new SGMC Urgent Care location and I could not ask for a better visit either trip. Most friendly, professional and caring staff.

  128. The staff treated me safely and kindly.Their proper care of me turned a scary procedure into a tolerable one. Their ability to calm and take care of me is beyond compare.

  129. Very caring staff!! Everyone in the imaging department was professional and kind and proficient. I cannot thank the Nurses, Rad tech and support staff enough. I was made comfortable during an unpleasant procedure and Coralita, Cassidy, …

  130. Everyone that I encountered from the time I got there til the time I left was very nice. Especially Ms. Betty in the mammogram department. I was there for my very first mammogram and she was super nice and made me feel very comfortable. I was very nervous, but she made me feel at home.

  131. I went to Smith-Northview Urgent Care the morning of 1/12/2023. I was assisted with checking in quickly. I was seen in a timely manner. Everyone was pleasant and gave information as needed. There was no undue delay.

  132. This is the worst hospital in Georgia there should be know reason for a person to wait 11 hours to see a doctor this is totally ridiculous. If it wasn’t a emergency I could have waited to see my primary doctor. I feel that you should take the emergency sign down.
