Stamford Hospital

The Bennett Cancer Center is wonderful! The staff and doctors are caring, efficient and knowledgeable, The facility is modern and comfortable. Plenty of free parking for patients. They even have many integrative options available.

I was in a situation where I had to stay in the hospital for two weeks. My family and I have also stayed in Greenwich and Norwalk Hospitals, but Stamford Hospital has stood out amongst them. The residents are sharp, the nursing staff is attentive and caring, the food services and janitorial staff are exceptionally friendly. My daughter had a birthday during my prolonged stay and the volunteer staff even organized a small party for us. I had a luxurious private room with water views with the NYC skyline in the distance. (the other side of the building has beautiful tree-filled views). I always felt very well cared for and attended to. I am also a cancer patient at the hospital and had a previous ER visit there and have consistently received the same warm, attentive care throughout my visits . I highly recommend the Stamford Hospital.

I hurt my foot and it swollen pretty bad. I went to ER at 8:45pm. The staffs told me they’re too busy and can’t help. Then i went to the front desk and ask for a guide. the front desk lady and secerity guy told me i have to wait otherwise they will kick me out of hospital. If i need a treatment, then i should call the ambulance. Or call the doctor to come to my house. I have been waiting for 4 hours, but no one came to me and treat me as a patient. At end, i just have to leave the hospital without any treatments. What a worse experience in my life.

Great hospital. Staff was so friendly, and kept us informed the entire time we were there. They are so welcoming of family members staying with their loved ones, and the rooms are AMAZING. All inpatient rooms are singles. Everything is new and clean. Lots of parking. Best hospital experience ever.

Was in the ER on the September 16th with pvcs, shortness of breath and edema. Won’t get into too much detail but it seemed as though the nurse was more knowledgeable than the doctor the nurse said I had low potassium which can trigger arrhythmias gave me 3 large potassium pills when I discussed it with the doctor he didn’t seem aware of the potassium and said I wasn’t having arrhythmias PVCS when I’ve had this condition for more than 3 decades and I WAS having them the machine was showing blips on my ecg. The doctor was not on the same page with the nurse or cardiologist that was brought in I’m having surgery in early October so a lot is riding on having a clear cardiac picture for my medical clearance he also said I wasn’t wheezing but I was diagnosed with bronchitis the cherry on the sundae was he said my bloodwork was fine but when I went to see my private doctor at the end of that week she said I was hyperglycemic, had severe anemia and low potassium so my bloodwork was not “fine” Dr. Malek wanted me to stay I couldn’t figure out why if I was ok but the real issue was he was not on the same page as everyone else. I’m seeing a cardiologist next week prior to my surgery for the final clearance and will explain to him what went down and why I refused to stay AMA when they couldn’t guarantee me the stress echo. I need this surgery it is a large tumor a possible malignancy time is of the essence considering I have hereditary cancers In my family that claimed my Mother’s life in July. My advice to the Hospital have physicians who work with ALL treating providers as part of a team effort. The nurse CS seemed to be more knowledgeable of my test results and gave me comfort in knowing that at least someone treating me knew what they were doing. The doctor struck me as being a doctor in training for someone with my health issues I need to have confidence in who’s treating me:(
