Jewish Hospital &Amp; St Mary's Healthcare

This was the worst hospital experience I have ever been a part of.

I will start off with positive notes: the dietary staff was very friendly and kind. We had 1-2 nurses that were great. Unfortunately, that’s where my praise ends.

From nurses to doctors to discharge staff: none of these people talk to each other or even read your chart. Had to stay with my mom for the entire three days she was there. The incompetence is frightening.

One nurse practitioner asked if my mom had spoken with the transplant team, which scared her to death. She was there for a diverticulitis flare! Another nurse walked in around 9p because “the heart monitor had gone off line”. Well, that’s kind of hard when you aren’t wearing a heart monitor. After consistently asking if her bowels were moving (appropriate), her response was that she had the OPPOSITE problem. They continued to try and give her a stool softener twice per day. Low blood pressure? Here.. take these three blood pressure pills.

Never. Ever. Leave your loved one unattended here.

I spent a good portion of 2017 in the thospital awaiting a liver transplant. I was admitted later for the flu and another unrelated issue. Then on January 4th of this year, I received a kidney transplant. The doctors, coordinators, nurses, and all other staff were always wonderful. They saved my life and always treated me very well. You couldn't be in better hands!

Doctor Smock (if I spelt that correctly) & assisting nurses were terrific, however the wait time was terrible. Wait time for me Monday from 11:40 AM till 4:20PM (when finally called back to meet doctor.)

Very nice hospital.my husband and I are very pleased with the staff very hard working and nice people in the whole hospital

I just wanted to give a huge shout out to the doctors and nurses in the emergency department. I was from out of state and really was in alot of pain and very restless, although i was there for 5 hours or something crazy like that they were very nice, respectful and supportive in my particularly problem they gave me everything i asked for and more. Thank u very much!
