St Clares Hospital of Weston

this hospital used to be excellent when it was Saint Claire’s. Since it has become ascension the service has become a hit and miss. I have a lot of health issues and am in the hospital quite a bit. I came here one time because my hemoglobin was dangerously low and nobody could figure out why. During that visit the staff was excellent, but then last year I came down with a blood infection and the staff service was horrible. Each time I would call for the nurse it would take them quite a while to answer the call light and when they did they’d walk out of the room to get me whatever I’d ask for but never return. They never seem to be able to figure out what was wrong with me and released me so I went to a different hospital where they discovered I had a blood infection called MERSA. The doctors at the other hospital said there’s no excuse for the doctors here to have missed it especially with a simple blood test. They definitely took a lot of blood while I was here but what they did with it I have no clue because they should have been able to tell and treat accordingly.

Worst hospital I've ever been to. The entire medical staff, at least in fairness, the ones I encountered, were horrible. They took my blood 3 times because they kept messing up the tubes and it was "coagulating". The doctors are the worst. Dr. Langee is a complete psycho and stated to me he comes to work with afib, and sometimes people just need to "suck it up". This is wreck-less and dangerous advice that could cost someone their life, and he should be removed from this profession immediately. Dr. Locke and the RN Kuphal(sp?) are almost as bad. You are doctors. You took an oath. If you don't care about people and their wellbeing, go work on a machine line, but remove yourself from the medical field immediately. Pathetic.

To all the Dr's and staff on the first floor, thank you for treating me and making me healthy again. Especially Tara for going the extra mile. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! - still really sore

The Birthing Center either needs more staff on the floor, or the nurses needs to pick up the pace. Please don’t operate with just two nurses, especially on 3rd shift. I came in at 3AM, and had to wait until the nurse opened the door because there was no HUC. The HUC from the ER had already registered and called ahead... I was ready to give birth at that moment. Please don’t base this upon my contractions. My husband was with me and can attest to the wait. I should not have to wait that long. After labor, I asked the day nurse how many newborns were in house and was informed 2, yet every time I pressed the call button I had to wait 10-15 minutes for the nurse to come? There’s a list I can go on about my horrible experience. Truthfully, I’ve been warned about the birthing center and how slowly they operate, but I wanted to give it a try, the benefit of doubt. Sadly, my experience wasn’t any different from friends and families who gave birth here. Even after years of having new corporations come in, there are still no change to the poor services...

Recently was admitted for a kidney infection and it was my first time ever having to stay in a hospital, not to mention that I was new to the area and had no idea what kind of reputation the hospital had. The care I recieved here was awesome! Everyone constantly had smiling faces and was so friendly. The nurses (especially Kayla, Jenna & Melissa) made me feel like I was at home and less scared. Its nice knowing you're in good hands when you're scared. Everyone here was constantly so kind and I'd recommend this hospital for anyone.
