If you are giving birth, please dont go to this hospital. They are very raciest, ignorant people and most of all some doctors doesnt know what they are doing.. I almost died from urine infection after c section. They forgot to drain my urine from my bladder the next day and I was in pain for 4 hours until I forced myself to go to the bathroom. They had no idea instead started giving me stronger pain killer .. please dont go there if u dont have to. Good luck!
I highly recommend St. Joseph's Health Centre. I broke my arm at 8:30 pm and was seen by an ER doctor (who used liquid stitches to quickly seal my facial lacerations), x-rayed, examined by an orthopedic specialist, then fitted with a cast within 12 hours (in 2 visits). The follow-up physiotherapy through St. Joseph's Outpatient Clinic with Melanie Ellwood was absolutely incredible. She put so much effort and care into healing me as quickly and fully as possible, and consultations with a second surgeon and physiotherapist confirm that I am progressing ahead of schedule thanks to the wonderful care I received. The many follow-up x-rays, appointments and sessions with Dr. Roscoe (orthopedic surgeon) and Melanie make me confident that I am getting the best care possible. The lack of bathrooms (and cleanliness) needs improvement, and the ER waiting area is restrictively small, but these complaints are minor when contrasted with the healthcare I received.
The doctors at St. Joe's are more interested in making money than they are in treating patients. I felt like I was just a number and not a person.Usually over-packed. Unless its a serious emergency expect a long wait to have anything treated. Its hit and miss with ER Dr's, though for the most part you will get a good one who knows his stuff. Nurses are also most of the time wonderful and willing to go the extra mile to keep you comfortable and well.
If I can give negative stars, I would. Thanks to this hospital my grandma will now be bedridden for the rest of her life. When asked what happen we were tossed around and lied too. Staff told us multiple different versions of what happen that caused her to be bedridden. The doctor also dont tell you the full truth about diagnostics they found for my grandma...making the family thing her situation seem like it nothing when it was far much worst. The staff here should not be trusted and if you have to bring your loved ones here be sure to be very carefully. My family has been lied to multiple times by the hospital staff here on what has happen with each person push us off to the next and when we do get answers, every staff we spoke to gave us a different story and said different things. If you want your love ones to be in pain and die...than this hospital is perfect for you. I know my family will be speaking with lawyers about what happened with my grandma...because I do not wish what happened to my family to happen to anyone else. So please if you care about your loved ones...DO NOT SEND them here.
After my experience yesterday, I will never go back to the ER ever again. I had a chance to speak to Patient Relations about this, but I can't remain silent. I was hurt and rushed by ambulance to St. Joe's ER. Everything was as standard treatment until the morning staff switched over. I was forgotten for 5.5 hours, no doctor came and checked up on me, only the nurses, but there one was big mistake committed by the nurses, no communication, nothing...The first incident, the porter took me to CT and left me in the middle of the hallway. It was there where I was almost robbed twice. One of the men, who tried to rob me, I caught him in the act, and I had to defend myself. The night staff didn't informed the day staff about what medications and pain relief I was given. I was injected within two hours double painkillers and narcotics. I had to beg for no more narcotics. After my second dose injection (less than 2 hours apart), the doctor came in the room for 15 seconds, requested another narcotics injection and then discharged me instantly. The nurse told me that I had to find my own way home. I was dizzy, barely stand on my feet, after receiving double narcotics, after I begged no. When I asked for help, I was denied help, then the female nurse, who was in the room when I was getting my IV, grabbed same part of my arm where I had my IV, and she painfully squeezed it. When I tried to stop her, she insinuated that I did it to myself. Five nursesverbally abusing me, taunting my pain and vulnerability, name calling, belittling, and I had to take it. I sat there and cried while they took all of their frustration on me while I was alone. My mother, who stepped out for a bit, wasn't there to defend me. Two patients watching couldn't believe what they were seeing. No female patient should ever have to go through this. The female nurses in charge of my care, dosed me and then denied me any safety, forcing me to leave a hospital alone. And all we hear about patients abusing medical professionals, but we rarely hear when medical professionals abuse their patients.I am seeking legal action against the hospital, and those who endangered my life through abusr and carelessness.
