Strathmore District Health Services

Initial visit, front staff and doctor were concerned and accommodating for my son's injury. On follow up visit a week later, greeting nurse was friendly but that quickly went downhill the moment I dealt with admissions. From that point, no sense of friendliness or accommodations. Waited for 3 hrs before asking for a wait update only to get a snarky remark from the triage nurse. When finally met with doctor, no questions regarding how my son was feeling- just a 60 sec summary of the x-ray and next follow up appointment and he was gone. Just to illustrate, out front was am elderly alone in her wheelchair trying to make it to the front door but could not. A staff member was outside as well amd could not be bothered to help the woman out so I did.

people are nice ... but c'mon act real at times .. don't try to impress and act busy witch your not!! please do your jobs . thanks

Called ahead to be sure they could deal with appendicitis, they said yes. Went and they couldn't even do the ultrasound to diagnose it and sent me home in pain with nothing. The day after I went to a second hospital and got diagnosed and had surgery in much less time then I spent at the hospital in Strathmore

I'm not sure where these negative comments come from because my 7 day stay was amazing. I went in with extreme pain and vomiting. Dr O'Brien quickly assessed me and diagnosed the cause of my pain. I was immediately made comfortable and admitted. During my stay Dr O'Brien and nurses were amazing. They were always very attentive, polite and caring. You could feel they actually cared. If I could give a higher rating, I would. A heartfelt thank you to all the staff for making my stay @ Strathmore Hospital the best it could be!

The staff in Emergency were quick calm and efficient, even at the tag end of the long night shift.
