Be sure to take anything of value before leaving a loved one in their care, items go “missing”
Unfortunately my family has had a few ER experiences the past year. Every experience has been satisfactory. There are always helpful people around to answer any questions you might have. Usually the wait is not very long, we are in and out in 2 or 3 hours which is very reasonable for the ER!
Went to er because my doctor switched me from Ativan to Valium because she thought the Valium would make my ability to come off Ativan easier. Well, I am 66 years old and became dependent on Ativan from my family dr who really didn’t know …
Most beautiful staff of angles ever
Nobody cares about you here!!
The worst do yourself a favor and take a ride to Toms River
Making a pregnant girl wait two hours in the waiting room is just horrible. I will never go to this er again
Paige, my speech therapist, is the best! Never waited in the waiting room for more than a few minutes prior to our scheduled appointment. Always prompt. Paige was extremely helpful and very knowledgeable.
I went to get the first of my vaccine shots at Hackensack Meridian Health SOMC and it was great! I had a short wait and the shot was not painful nor did I have any side-effects!
If I could give zero stars I would. My father entered the emergency room dying. Instead of admitting him quickly he was subjected to 8+ hours sitting in the emergency room waiting for a bed. During that time he was confused due to lack of …
I would like to thank the entire Covid staff that looked after my father, Vincent. Their care and compassion helped to comfort him and our family in his final days. My one concern was the very warm temperature in the patients’ rooms. …
Great office staff, I saw Dr. Capiro beyond excellent, caring and knowledgeable in his field. I am so relieved and grateful he was able to remove my IUD successfully. He took his time, and helped me choosing the right best method of birth control. Very happy with my office visit.
My husband and I received our first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine. The staff and the service from beginning to end were excellent! The security person, registration and nursing personnel treated us with courtesy and professionalism. Thank you
You wonder if you are in an emergency room, because you receive irrelevant information and your health is in danger.
The entire staff here, including the doctors, are incredibly personable and caring. They have a great system for same day surgery where multiple staff from different dept./positions will ask you the necessary questions at one time whenever …
Thoroughly professional and courteous treatment, delivered quickly and punctually. …
The doctors and their staff are professional but so warm. It has been a pleasure working with each of them during my pregnancy really going above and beyond answer my questions and making sure that I am comfortable each time I have an appointment. Especially during the pandemic and the uncertainty that has come with it.
Emergency room staff and administrative staff were pleasant and professional. My adult son received immediate attention.
Great experience with maternity staff. Caring and kind.
Drove to emergency section to get my friends house key to feed and water his cat but emergency staff and nurse won’t let me see him to get the key ! They were whispering so I won’t here their conversations
I was admitted with Covid/Pneumonia March 2022. Released after 2 weeks without home care. Way to earlt & did not get Pulmonary care I should have. Ended up at Jersey Shore 10 days later & had to be incubated.
Thank you to the amazing staff for the excellent treatment I received. Lauren my nurse was was so caring and efficient with such a loving spirit. Thank you to all the staff!
I can’t say enough bad things about this facility…from the time you enter until you receive the final bill. Uncooperative, dismissive, incompetent, uncaring.
Sitting in emergency room with kidney stones in incredible amount of pain and waiting for over two hours! Still have not seen a doctor. I would not recommend this place at all.
They are the worst over 4 hours waiting in the emergency room I still haven’t been seen. The kid is sick throwing up and they’re taking people in that came in after us with cuts and scrapes
On August 12 2021. I checked into the ER for server abdominal pain and feeling light headed at 11:30 they made me wait for 2 and a half hours and counting and still have not seen no Doctor. Still sitting in the waiting area. They are so …
A great woman named Barbara works here. I don’t know her exact role but she went above and beyond to help me track down my mom’s belongings after she had to stay in the ER. I’m very appreciative
On Monday July 19th I brought my wife to the emergency room. I am not one who normally writes reviews although I am starting to recognize that they help others make better more informed decisions. To make this short and to the point, we …
I always went to Mainland for any emergency related issues but as of lately, screw Mainland, that place is awfulllllll. SOCH or sorry, Southern Ocean Medical Center, is amazing. The nursing staff are great, the front desk is great, they …
After 8 hours in the ER, a room was finally available for my mother. The bed was made, but dirty, we asked for it to be changed and it was done. The room had obviously not been swept, much less mopped in recent weeks. Look at pictures of …
I went into the er w covid symptoms fever headache and 8.5 wks pregnant. I was given an n95 and told to go into this separate room. When I went in there there was 2 other ppl waiting for 3.5 hrs already. The woman eventually left and a …

Very upset with the treatment at the ER at Southern Ocean Medical Center. The care was horrible Friday and Sunday! I have pre existing conditions and was sent for possible blood clot by my oncologist. After the first visit the nurse was …
The ER at this hospital continues to be incredibly disappointing. Medical facilities and staff have been dealing with a great deal over the past few years, and I greatly appreciate that. However, those stressors should never be taken out of …
Worst place to take your child. Waited such a long time for a doctor to check on my son. I was discharged and was told the results would be ready on line which was a lie. Called back multiple times to get results and nothing. I will NEVER tie my child to this hospital again.
It’s a weird hospital. All my life I’ve never went to a hospital and had to get my blood taken 4-5 times because of something with the lab. Then on top of that she didn’t wash her hands to take more blood from me. Very unhygienic. The room was dirty prior to when I came in.
They bill out every 17 days… No business I’ve ever done billing for invoices you every 17 days… Your expectations of patients is unrealistic. ZERO stars… Health care… Not Money care…GREED
Er is unprofessional, complaining I didn’t have my mask up in the room when most nurses walk around without it. Have no problem putting my mask up just lose the attitude. Still continued to argue then the charge nurse was just as bad. Heard not great things about this place didn’t think it was this bad.
Called, left a voicemail and then left an email hours later to never get an explanation of my results. Called again and the guy said “our hours are 9 am to 5 pm” for gastro. I explained that I had called and left a voicemail and an email …
Waited 6 hours total. Was in Triage for an hour among with 20 other people with a small devider between each patient for my HEPA recovery rights to be violated! Than when we threatened to leave a head nurse took you back and stuck my …
My wife Olympia’s heart stopped twice. I brought her to the ER. Doctor Valko and the ER crew saved her life. The performance that I witnessed from Dr Valko and his staff. Was the most professional work I have ever seen. DR Valko was …
The two times I have been there great experiences from beginning to end. I was there this time I have the flu I was out of there in two hours. The doctor and nurse were so nice. I definitely would recommend.
Disgraceful! The treatment that my 70 year old husband recieved at this facility after being taking by ambulance. The doctor on
duty was at best rude and abnoxiuos. The things that he said to my husband prior …
I was recently at the emergency room with my heart pounding and blood pressure very high. I was in the hold area for 1hour. No asked if I was okay, did I need anything just nothing. Then finally I was called to go in to the room where they …
I’m in the er with my daughter it’s been 21/2 hours and not been seen. They are quick to get the finance info but that’s about it. Was here 2 weeks ago after being treated back again but it will be my last. We will make the trip to Atlantic city hosp. We are probably being triage but no one has cone to us and she was #2 in the room.
***EDITED TO ADD RESPONSE: I appreciate the acknowledgment but after being sent home last night from Southern Ocean (well 330am) I had to drive him to another hospital this morning due to another episode and while in Triage he also had a …
I just was released after a week stay at this hospital.
The entire staff of the TCU and the ER were wonderful. …
Very clean, open airy, staff is excellent, came in for gallbladder surgery and Kitty the Robotic surgeon did a great job. If you need quality medical care I would definitely recommend this hospital for the area.
After reading others’ reviews I was a bit apprehensive about taking my 14 month old who was sick with COVID here but it was the closest option and boy am I glad I did! The staff was absolutely fantastic, as soon as the nice receptionist …
Was in ER twice, during 1 year. Both time horrible service. Start with waiting time, to be moved to room, than with waiting for doctor. Nurse who is not care, when she is talking to you she not even care about what are you telling her. …
