Review Summary
The following is an AI generated summary of the reviews of the community from across the web.
Reviews of the hospital show a wide range of experiences, from extremely negative to highly positive. Some reviewers describe the emergency room and staff as terrible, citing long wait times, untrained staff, and a lack of care and attention. One reviewer mentioned a 9-hour wait to diagnose a fractured foot, while another spoke of a 10-hour wait without a bed for a CT scan. Complaints about rudeness, lack of professionalism, and even unethical behavior were common among the negative reviews.
On the other hand, some reviews praised the hospital and its staff. Positive experiences were highlighted in the maternity ward, where the staff was described as a "Dream Team" that provided excellent care and support. Another positive review mentioned the great customer service and care provided to a premature baby in the NICU, thanking specific nurses and doctors by name.
However, the majority of the reviews lean towards dissatisfaction, with several alarming accounts of neglect, mismanagement, and even accusations of causing harm to patients. One reviewer strongly advised against going to the hospital, claiming it led to the death of a family member. Another shared a distressing experience of being ignored and mistreated during a severe medical emergency.
Overall, the reviews paint a picture of a hospital with significant inconsistencies in the quality of care, ranging from commendable to deeply concerning. While some departments like the maternity ward receive high praise, the emergency room and some aspects of patient care seem to fall short of acceptable standards.
