    Its No hospital. Its a house for sick people (no hospitality) and it gets run by students who yet has no experience of a mature doctor. I more likely felt like a hamster in there. During my surgery it felt like I had to cheer that stressed student up while she is having her exam on me.. otherwise maybe that tube would go in a different direction than it spouse to be. (Who knows). After the surgery you get to meet up other students for feed back. I think (Doctors) are rare to be found there. Food: potatoes mashed with apples(?) mushrooms on a cooked egg(?) salad: raisins with lettuce(?) I didn't eat it and revived nothing else in return when I asked for somthing else. The one star goes to decorations of that place, well done!

    Great hospital with great doctors. Staff are very friendly, and doctors are warm and kind, let alone knowledgeable and professional Architecture is welcoming. It feels more like a university or a museum than a hospital. Although no goes to a hospital for fun, my wife and I had a good experience there. A special "Thank you" to everyone working in this great place.

    The most beautiful hospital in Netherlands. I'm so impressed. Nurses and doctors are very qualified. I had surgery so I spent here 2 days. Care and food were realy good. This hospital looking inside like good hotel. In the building are to many art figure and paintings. In UMCG are also small shopping.

    This is not only a hospital, but also a part of the University of Groningen. For the health care matters, it provides a lot of services, from midwife until doctors with any expertise. Very large and complete. Easy to be accessed by car, public transport (bus), and bike. Many parking area nearby.

    Horrible! Dr. Glade is a plastic surgeon but left a horrible scar about 18 inches on a botched hernia repair. He used big staples instead of alternative approaches. He would not look at my scar because it looks so bad. Now I must have the same surgery again. He did not repair the hernia.

    During a visit to Groningen I injured my back and could barely walk or move. I went to the ER and was treated like a hypochondriac! Never in my life have I been treated as rudely and disrespectfully as I was in that ER. Horrible experience!

    (Translated by Google) I respect the people of the Obsetrie & Gynecology department. What can those people fly say. And yet they remain friendly. Everything to put you at ease and especially to help you. Hats off! (Original) Wat heb ik respect voor de mensen van afdeling Obsetrie & Gynaecologie. Jeetje wat kunnen die mensen vliegen zeg.

    (Translated by Google) A conversation of 20 minutes cost me more than € 300 excess. I won't do that again unless it's really necessary. He couldn't help it, he thought. (Original) Gesprekje van 20 minuten kostte mij ruim 300€ eigen risico. Doe ik niet weer dus behalve als het echt nodig is. Hij kon er toch niks aan doen dacht hij.

    I have never seen someone so unwilling to help even if it's their job in the first place 🤡 clowns, I would give zero stars if it was possible.. the only time you could receive an emergency care is I guess if you were missing a limb ..and even then they would tell you it is not an emergency and that you should call your doctor in the morning ..wake up please, there are actually people that need help.

    (Translated by Google) Very good University Hospital. Top! Lots of expertise. Excellent care. Really a recommendation for when medical care is necessary. Easily accessible by public transport and by car. Good parking options under the hospital. Lots of extra services, including (to name just a few) - indoor shopping mall - very well-equipped catering establishments - competent and extremely helpful staff - shuttle service in the hospital for disabled people - very spacious and well-arranged in design In short: ABSOLUTELY recommended. (Original) Zéér goed Universitair Ziekenhuis. Top! Heel veel expertise. Uitmuntende zorg. Écht een aanbeveling voor als medische zorg noodzakelijk is.

Heel veel extra service's, waaronder (om slechts enkele te noemen) - inpandig winkelcentrum - zeer goed geoutilleerde horeca - bekwaam en uitermate behulpzaam personeel - shuttle service in het ziekenhuis voor mindervalide personen - zeer ruim en overzichtelijk qua opzet Kortom: ABSOLUUT een aanrader.

  • 5/5 Douwe van U. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) My sister-in-law was on D3 from Sunday, 08/30/2020. My sister-in-law died of cancer in the night of Tuesday 09-01-2020 and Wednesday 09-22-2020 at the age of 48. Everyone at the hospital treated her and us wonderfully. A big compliment to everyone who has assisted her and us. The staff made sure that my sister-in-law was as comfortable in bed as possible, without pain as best they could. They involved us in everything. If we had to ask, we got an answer to everything, a very patient staff. The morgue staff are also very keen on how they looked after her partner and me. They came up with the idea of ​​cutting a section of hair for her children. And again a very big compliment to the hospital staff and the mortuary staff. Chappo !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Original) Mijn schoonzusje lag vanaf zondag 30-08-2020 op D3. Mijn schoonzusje is in de nacht van dinsdag 01-09-2020 en woensdag 02-09-2020 op 48 jarige leeftijd aan kanker overleden. Iedereen van het ziekenhuis heeft haar en ons fantastisch behandeld. Een hele dikke pluim voor iedereen die haar en ons heeft bijgestaan. Het personeel heeft er voor gezorgd dat mijn schoonzusje zo comfortabel in bed lag, en zo goed en kwaad als het kon zonder pijn. Ze hebben ons overal bij betrokken. Als wij te vragen hadden, kregen wij overal antwoord op, een zeer geduldig personeel. Het personeel van het mortuarium ook een hele dikke pluim, voor hoe ze haar partner en mij hebben opgevangen. Ze kwamen op het idee om een haarpluk af te knippen voor haar kinderen. En nogmaals een hele hele dikke pluim voor het ziekenhuispersoneel en het mortuariumpersoneel. Chappo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • 1/5 Question E. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Operation was well done. Top surgeons! But then afterwards what a mess, many mistakes. Questions are sometimes simply ignored. It was not even discussed why a patient had not eaten for 3 days. The person who delivered the food does not share anything about this either. Was completely ignored when people said anything about sending home too early. Just finish it, you can save yourself. Strange that there was no check at the entrance for corona (in the month of October) You could walk everywhere in the hospital. (Original) Operatie was prima gedaan. Top chirurgen! Maar dan erna wat een puinhoop veel vergissingen. Vragen worden soms gewoon genegeerd. Werd geen eens besproken waarom een patient niets gegeten had voor 3 dagen. Ook de persoon die het eten rond bracht geeft hier niks over door. Werd compleet genegeerd als mensen iets zeiden over te vroeg naar huis sturen. Gewoon uitbehandeld red je zelf maar. Vreemd dat er geen controle was bij de ingang voor corona (in de maand October) Je kon zo overal heen lopen in het ziekenhuis.

    Difficult to review, as the Neuro medium care prior to ICU entry was next to useless (1 STAR), no treatment given other than paracetamol and no real preventative measures taken for 2 days. Resulting 14 day ICU stay was 5 star and excellent (although one of the older nurses was a horror). Return to medium care unit was much better than previous stay so a 4 star. Overall a very good hospital, they just need to think a little outside of the box and observe the patient more to be brilliant.

    Very professionally organized university hospital, maximising the benefits of digitization to manage patient flow. Also very pleasantly laid out with a number of shops, restaurants etcetera. Medical staff as far as I can judge also quite capable (I was helped quite well and decisively).

    (Translated by Google) I was briefly at the Maternity Institute, but I spoke to about four doctors, seven nurses and two receptionists. And they were all really nice, smiling and helpful. I met such a nice hospital staff for the first time and was thrilled. Incredibly, it helped one mentally. And after reconstruction the environment is nice, pleasant. I felt really good there. Even lunch tasted. (Original) V Ústavu mateřství jsem byla krátce, ale dohromady jsem mluvila zhruba se čtyřmi lékaři, sedmi sestrami a dvěmi recepčními. A vsichni byli neskutecne milí, usměvaví a vstřícní. S tak milým personálem v nemocnici jsem se potkala poprvé a byla jsem nadsena. Neuvěřitelně to člověku psychicky pomohlo. A po rekonstrukci je prostředí hezké, prijemne. Cítila jsem se tam opravdu dobre. I obed chutnal.

    I went to the emergency because I thought that my tendon in my hand was cut and I knew that you need to take care of it within a few days. Inside someone looked at it and said it looks normal, I shouldn't worry and go home. I was doubtful but what else should I do? Next time I went to another hospital the doctor there said the tendon is obviously cut off but the time to repair it is over. Now the surgeons have to cut open my whole hand and use another tendon to reconstruct the tendon that is permanently damaged. Thanks for letting me lose my tendon!
