I would like to share my experience here... about 1 month ago I gave birth to my son in the hospital via cesarean section, it was not planned. I was in labor for about 17 hours and was on my own. Towards the end I had such strong contractions that I pressed the red button twice to ask someone to come because I was in so much pain and needed help. Then a midwife came in and told me that I shouldn't press the button They were just changing shifts and slammed the door, it was so bad for me, unfortunately I couldn't tell who it was because I was in so much pain and my eyes were closed... if I knew who it was I would still go there today and make an announcement or an advertisement! If I become a swan again, I will never register here again. Very unfriendly midwives.

The midwives were really great and supported and helped my wife wonderfully during the birth! Unfortunately I can't give it five stars because the postpartum ward was a disaster. The nurses were rude to our newborn and gave little to no help (as we found out afterwards). In addition, no gynecologist came to examine my wife after the birth. Ultimately, I recommend going outpatient (directly home) after the birth.

They do their stuff quite well. Always room for improvement but you won't regret going here.

I would like to say that my experience with this hospital was horrible but its worse than that. I gave birth there and im having trauma from what happened there. I had very smooth pregnancy but during my delivery i was left with contractions for about 20h. They were giving me induction epidural and after i said that im about to die of pain and that i want c section doctor came and suggested vacuum which i didnt want because it mostly ends uo with damaging the baby. They act like butchers, giving completely inhumane treatment and i ended up with so many stiches which enabled me to walk or go to toilet. I was bleeding like crazy for very long. What they do is horror and seems like they couldnt care less about pain. They talk very rude like we are all needy and spoilt and they shouldnt work in hospital at all. I wouldnt recommend to anyone that type of delivery after best pregnancy ever because i was sure that baby and I would not make it. What they do is horror and terror they are brutal and acted like i was piece of meat.

We chose St. Joseph because of the combination of a comprehensive maternity clinic (neonatology, etc.) with a lot of experience as well as the focus on self-determined and natural births (you don't find that very often, many maternity clinics are more one-sidedly oriented). We were very happy with our decision. The clinic and every employee, including the head physician, are warm-hearted, committed and you can tell that everyone enjoys working here and wants to do their job well and in the interests of the parents and babies. There is a family atmosphere and despite the size, it never seemed hectic to us. Both during the birth and the days after, everyone seemed relaxed and took their time, even though there was certainly a lot going on. Requests were always taken into account and work was done on an equal footing. A few other aspects that may be less important, but still had a positive influence on our experience: - The birth registration was very friendly, structured and, in addition to medical aspects, psychosocial aspects were also taken into account - Breakfast and dinner are buffet style. The quality and selection is really good for a hospital and we got to know other parents, which I found very nice - The environment in the airport neighborhood is very relaxing, green and quiet. Little hospital atmosphere with sirens etc. - Visitors can be received easily In short, we can more than recommend the St. Joseph!

We have had various visits in this hospital, overall an OK experience, but our visit today at the midwifery department was disappointing. We had an appointment to discuss our baby's birth at their facilities. The lady that serviced us was impolite, intimidating and inhumane. She shamed me for not being able to speak German, denied helping us in English (in the beginning) however she switched to very good English a few minutes later in the conversation when she realised we were not really gonna take it and were ready to leave. We heard some good things about the birthing department in this hospital but after today's experience, we decided not to give birth to our baby there.

Horrible customer service (at least for English speaking customer who pays with cash) emergency check in went alright, paid 50 eur and then waited more than 4 hours just to get my prescription for antibiotics, I guess my face growing like pumpkin is not enough convincing for them to provide medical help, as all people who was before and after me and many more to come was served fast and went happily home. Still sitting here and waiting for some miracle.

Doctors, nurses and midwives are great both personally and professionally - despite a lot of work. A few negative exceptions (a stressed and therefore extremely rude assistant doctor and an unfriendly nurse on the ward who forbade me to ring the bell immediately after the operation if I needed help). Very baby friendly overall.

Many thanks to midwife Clarissa! I felt like I was in good hands during the birth. Unfortunately, on the maternity ward we were able to experience everything from the medical staff, from competent and empathetic to stressed and rude. But I would always give birth here again and am very grateful to have had a peaceful birth. Generally recommended from registration to leaving the clinic.

A big thank you to the two midwives at the birth, unfortunately I don't remember their names otherwise I would have liked to send them flowers. Except for an older one at CTG, everyone was very friendly. Lg

Nice

Worst hospital and staff was rude

We gave birth in this hospital and everything was ok including anesthesia. It's hard to get the family room, but usually they have some single rooms left. If you are looking for a hospital to give birth in - look no more :) Also most of the staff speaks English :)

I was allowed on May 31st. I gave birth to my daughter with you. I felt very well looked after and treated with love. My midwife was such a lovely person. Thanks for that. You're doing a great job. 👍

I can only recommend this maternity ward to everyone. I felt safe and fully supported and cared for throughout the entire time. They looked after me very sensitively and gave me the time I needed. Above all, I would like to thank the midwife Vilma. The entire team really does a great job, there is no better way to look after births. THANKS

I would always recommend the hospital! I had a great birth with the best midwife I could have imagined. I was taken seriously at all times and what I needed and wanted was addressed. She was very sensitive and guided me well through the birth. I didn't have long contact with the doctor in charge, but she was also very friendly. I can't complain about the postpartum ward either. All the nurses and midwives were very friendly and supported me well. If you needed help or had questions, someone was always there promptly. A small negative point was that the telephones at the bedside often didn't work or the internal telephone numbers changed.

Longest waiting times in the ER for children that I have seen in Berlin. Just to register takes at least 1h waiting. Go to another hospital if you can

The midwives and nursing staff were disinterested, unempathetic and very unfriendly. Starting with the birth and the unfriendly midwife and anesthetist you can imagine. Unfortunately, I only observed unsanitary conditions after my cesarean section. Starting with me being driven half-naked around the ward at 7 a.m. with all my clothes piled on the bed where I was lying with my newborn child because I couldn't wait 30 minutes for my husband to come and help me get dressed and packing up my things since I was unable to move due to the cesarean section that had taken place the night before. My shoes were simply placed at my feet. I was driven from an empty two-person room in which I was alone without having time to get dressed to a room with the patient and her husband. Luckily, my clothes were thrown on the bed so that I could get dressed in front of these people when I arrived. I asked several times for a family room because I couldn't walk to the changing table because of the pain and no nurse came to help at night. Not even in an emergency when my baby turned blue on the first day of life because her stuffy nose blocked her air supply. My husband had to run to the nurses because no one answered the emergency bell. To this day I am glad that my husband was there during visiting hours. On the second afternoon after the birth, I was given a family room without freshly made bed linen. Due to the birth, the bed sheet from the first bed had a blood stain from me on it and when the nursing staff changed rooms it was covered with my clothes and shoes. I had to take this blanket with me to the new room (3rd room change). When I got a fresh sheet at some point, the only comments were "yeah, there's blood on it. Wow, that's disgusting, yuckyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy." IN THE PONTERNATIONAL WARD -Hello? I was put on mesh underpants that were too small, which caused the postpartum pad to leak after the cesarean section. I was only told this by the third sister, who found out by chance. The nurses were consistently unfriendly and even though we paid for the family room, we were yelled at because we wanted to use the diapers in the room that were provided for us on the changing table. “You have to bring everything yourself,” although the birth preparation course in the same hospital and our midwife said we could use them. We left immediately after the baby's examination because it was so bad, but even though the doctor didn't say anything during the examination, when we left the room we were shouted "oh, your child has jaundice" by a doctor in passing. Of course we immediately went to the Billyrubin consultation, where we were again told “no, what made you think that? Everything looks good”. All in all not recommended.

If you go here for ER, you will end up waiting 4 hours minimum.... So pray to God that its not really emergency or pain that you need to handle for so long. I signed up for baby delivery in this hospital and now I just say to my self "God help me"!!!

I gave birth at St Joseph’s and was amazed at the high level of care my daughter and I received. The staff were very attentive, friendly and most spoke English. Specialist doctors were available immediately in the Kreißsaal when there were complications (no need to be transferred elsewhere in the hospital in my case, which made it less stressful). Midwives were available 24hrs to assist with feeding. Great focus on mother/baby bonding from the very beginning. Top level care and expertise. I would highly recommend.

I had gynecology surgery and I was very scared beforehand. Everything went great. From the trainees to the nursing staff, nurses and doctors, everyone was super nice and empathetic people. The medical care was also perfect. I can recommend the hospital without reservations
