😠 This review is STRICTLY about the ST GEORGE HOSPITAL COVID CLINIC Horrible experience. I went there to get a Covid Test. I waited there since 4:30pm. Right when I was about to go in, they put a close sign out at 6pm despite the fact the website says the clinic closes at 8pm. They didn't even bother... People often mention hospital, staff, nurses, care, emergency, George, time, doctors, experience, hours,

    This review is STRICTLY about the ST GEORGE HOSPITAL COVID CLINIC Horrible experience. I went there to get a Covid Test. I waited there since 4:30pm. Right when I was about to go in, they put a close sign out at 6pm despite the fact the website says the clinic closes at 8pm. They didn't even bother telling people waiting outside in the line who didn't see the sign that the clinic is closed early. When I asked whether they'll tell them, I was simply told, "They should be using their common sense". Anyway, they told me that if I waited a bit longer, I might have a chance to go in since I'm technically the next one, so I did. I waited till 7:20pm, and then one of the staff came out told me to go home because there are 15+ people inside currently getting tested. However, that's a blatant lie because everyone from the clinic said the number was below 10. I asked another patient who came out, and they confirmed that only five people were getting tested. Suddenly it went from 5 to 15. St George Hospital Covid Clinic has shown me today that they're not that good with numbers. Apparently, 8pm means 6pm. 5 people is apparently 15 people to them. Anyway, when I called up the Covid Clinic, they told me to fake some symptoms to go into the emergency department to get tested. So apparently, these covid clinic staff workers are willing to clog up the emergency department. Wonderful. Dishonest, disorganised and incompetent.

    Covid vaccination - enter hospital campus via pedestrian entrance at Belgrave Street (where it becomes South street) next to the loading dock. Walk straight ahead along the path and on the right next to the café is the vaccination entrance. There was no sign but it was marked by a temporary white awning and a queue. There’s a process of QR code check in and temp check then another queue for lift to level 4 where vaccination takes place. Upstairs it’s a shuffle through three rooms. First is ID check and vaccination registration, then it’s the vaccination room and finally recovery for 15 mins. Water and toilets available. Efficient, clean, organised. Pleasant, professional staff. Whole thing took me about 70 mins.

    Nursing staff is absolutely useless. Failed to check on my mother for hours at a time after lung cancer surgery. Failed to remember she's allergic to lactose, and made her go without meals because there was no lactose-free option available. Couldn't even remember to give her a spoon with her jelly! Failed to make sure my mother could reach the call button, leaving her helpless and in pain when she dropped the button for her self-administered pain relief. Despite being told the importance of giving my mother the medication she needs for her neurological condition on time, she was consistently given the wrong meds at the wrong times, sometimes up to three hours late, leaving her woozy, shaky and in even more pain. Less important, but still inexcusable, my mother paid the ridiculously high prices they charge for a television that didn't work, only for the nurses to keep forgetting to send someone to fix it. She finally got it fixed on her third night there. Think she'll be reimbursed for the 2 days she didn't get the service she was paying for? I'm not holding my breath. If you have the option to go absolutely anywhere other than St George public hospital, you should absolutely take it. If you don't have the option, then good luck, I hope you make it out alive. These idiots could easily kill someone.

    THE best hospital for doctors and nurses. They really take good care of you. I had a cancer operation in the past and was fortunate enough to have the best surgeon, Dr Greg Robertson, who is in the Cancer Care Team with Dr Jodi Lynch and Dr Catherine Clark - these 3 people are the best in their field, anywhere, and for me they are the "saints" who saved my life. Recently I was hospitalised for Covid 19 and this excellent hospital saved my life again. The nurses a d doctors in the Covid ward were excellent. Of course, the food and kitchen staff is a different story - but who goes there for the food?

    I wouldn’t let my dog stay in this hospital! Staff are hopeless, misinformed, scream at each in so called ‘quiet wards’. My mother had a heart attack & due to her fragile state, they were unable to further intervene other than to offer therapeutic/conservative medication, with strict instructions from the specialists to keep her stable & calm. We were told to make plans for palliative/end of life care at home.Well, not only was my mother placed in a ward where senior nurses screamed & laughed at each other, but when I managed to calm her (12 hour effort), the nurses moved her to another room, causing further stress & disruption. She was placed in a hot room, once again causing her stress, anxiety & sweating for the rest of the night. Not exactly the service expected as private patient, eh? This hospital is a circus, where patients come out traumatised! Shame on them! Our health system is that of a third world nation. No trust the public health system.

    One year ago today, our mother was admitted to be treated for an inguinal hernia. Six days later we laid her to rest. If you are considering here to have your health restored, rethink your options. We are yet to receive an explanation for our mothers passing.

    Terrible old hospital with staff on some wards extremely rude and just a general sense of disdain for patients. Still many staff doing good work but mistakes are made and when you are unwell and people are rude, it's super unpleasant. Assert your rights as a health consumer and don't accept rudeness and incompetence.

    At the beginning of the pandemic in 2020, where we still didn't know what was going to happen, I became very ill and needed to be hospitalized (I had my gallbladder removed) and the team that treated me was incredible, especially because I didn't speak English and had only been in Australia for 1 year. They were perfect, I really want to thank everyone and also the intern who helped me a lot at the time by speaking my native language (Portuguese, Brazil) Thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️.

    1 star is too high. Nurses were super lovely though! Absolute joke of a hospital, honestly! Would receive better care, treatment and medication in a veterinary hospital than here or any NSW hospital by the looks of it! They’re all the same… Thank God I have my own team of specialist doctors that actually know what they’re doing and can fit emergency appointments in. It says something when they urge you to sign yourself out of ICU and tell you what to take for the next few hours until you see them, but oh wait, that’s right, ICU can’t even fax results of a scan to them because they’re still that useless that my doctor pushed my appointment back a day until they fax that scan to them only for ICU to tell me that they can’t do it after all (still useless). So now, I will have to have a CT scan charged to Private health and pay whatever gap is needed, be exposed to radiation (as if I’m not exposed enough to it at work) and wait longer to be readmitted for proper care. By the way, the anti inflammatories that you doctors said wouldn’t help in my case (that my specialist said to take 100mg 3x a day of) helped immensely) you know the ones that the ICU dept took away and denied access of all my medication? Yeah… Also, loperamide worked well too and I slept all night so perhaps instead of playing God, listen to your patient as the ulcers have spread to the mouth and eyes now which could have been prevented if you’d treated it earlier and not for gastro. So thanks for nothing except 2 nights of sleeplessness and immense pain that I’d rather have thrown myself of a cliff than experIence again!

    Went to this hospital for having chest pains after the thingy. I was seen and tests were done. I was told it’s the good pains to have and to make sure I have the 3rd, really?? Since when is chest pains good to have? Be great full there is no review about what happened here in 2012 as it was worse than shocking and deliberate. Oh, and my shoulder. I tell the truth when asked about it, nice try with your intentions.

    I just watch current affair Qld to learn the tragic story of Mr Fitzpatrick. I'm am disgusted in NSW health and St George hospital ICU section. Mr Fitzpatrick family deserves more than a b grade written letter. Far as I can see this is criminal and st George hospital should hold there heads in shame. May God sort the dishonest actions of doctors out on judgement day.

    Super efficient and friendly nurses at the vaccination centre here. Organised and well-staffed. Parking is available across the street at the park station. Entrance to the vaccination hub is via Belgrave Street then follow the signage to the entrance. Vaccinations on level 4. No walk ins, booked online appointments only

    I had 2 bad experiences at this hospital. The first one was on my sons delivery. I went to be induced, the staff very rude since I got there, someone swiped my membranes without saying absolutely anything, it was very painful, was my first child and I didn’t know much. During delivery they kept increasing the oxytocin, I had a huge contraction, it was too much for my body, they turned everything off including the babies heart monitor which was very wrong because the baby could’ve been easily in distress during that incident. One of the reasons was the large amount of meconium that came out of me once he was born. I would say they turned off the baby’s heart monitor to hide evidence of their mistake from giving a huge amount of oxytocin to me. The midwife took a very long time to call the obstetrician because they needed to use the vacuum. After he was born, in the room upstairs I had a urine bag with a catheter and The nurse told me to empty it by myself in the toilet without even explaining how to do it. I had to do it many times. Today my son have delayed development and I’ll never know if that was caused by a lack of oxygen during delivery. It’s very sad to know that all things could’ve been so much better. The second experience was, I had fever and went to emergency. Waited 4 or 5 hours. The nurse told me I had to do a urine test cause she was gonna find out what drug I was taking. Such an insult as I don’t take any drugs, so rude. Then later I was diagnosed with hepatitis A. Also she was pushing Me to take Panadols all the time and lucky I didn’t take too many as it can damage the liver and I would’ve been even more sick if I did take more. Some people shouldn’t be doctors or nurses, they literally are in the wrong profession.

    Been here since 7:40pm on Monday 28th August 2023 it’s now Tuesday 29th August 12:05am and the staff show no interest in monitoring medical condition after several attempts of asking them when my friend is going to be seen by a doctor and telling the nurses/staff how much my friend is in pain only for us to be told that you are next in line for the past 3 hours. It’s so unsympathetic as nurses are supposed to be caring so where is their duty of care.

  • 5/5 Luz I. 10 months ago on Google
    Yes, it took 9 hours to be seen by a doctor. Yes, the nurses and receptionists wouldn't win a popularity contest. As a patient I was there for an emergency, but I understand that if someone with a more serious emergency will be seen to before me, even when they come in after I have. I also understand that the staff's priority is to help patients, not to say please and thank you. Patients need to know that during the evening through to 8am there are 2 doctors, one junior and one senior, for all patients in both the adult and children's emergency waiting area. This is not the fault of the emergency department's staff. If you have complaints about this there are other, more effective, avenues to voice your complaints. Once I was seen by the doctor I was scheduled for surgery the following morning. I was treated successfully by friendly, caring staff, from ward nurses, surgery staff through to kitchen and cleaning employees. I am extremely grateful

    My husband went to St . George Hospital Emergency due to kidney stones in the nighttime on 1st August 2023. Dr Rheannna Stevenson and all the nurses were warm and patient in supporting and caring for my husband. The Doctor kept reminding my husband to come back emergency when he had pain before his surgery day. Thanks, Dr Michael Bock and Dr Ho; all team did the surgery and Acute Services building level 5A; all the nurses looked after my husband too. Good experience all round.

    I am writing to express my deep disappointment and concern regarding the care my daughter received at St George Hospital. I am a mother who recently gave birth to my first child at your hospital, and I feel compelled to share my experiences. From the moment my daughter was born, she exhibited concerning symptoms, including difficulty breathing. Despite my worries and attempts to seek assistance from the nursing staff, I felt that my concerns were not taken seriously. Instead, I was told that her symptoms were due to cold, which turned out to be incorrect when we later discovered that she had Laryngomalacia. This misdiagnosis and the initial dismissal of my concerns left me feeling frustrated and concerned for my child's well-being. I couldn't help but wonder if our experiences were influenced by our ethnicity, as I felt that we were not treated with the same level of care and attention that other patients might have received. Unfortunately, my negative experiences did not end there. When my daughter fell ill at six months of age, we visited the Little Dragon Clinic at your hospital. The treatment we received from the nursing staff during this visit was nothing short of rude and dismissive. My daughter was in significant pain and distress due to a viral rash, yet we encountered a lack of empathy and support from the nursing team. One particular incident during our stay at the clinic left me deeply upset. My baby was crying for milk, and despite repeated attempts to get assistance through the buzzer system, no one responded. I approached the service desk, and the staff member on duty did not provide any help and even walked away. This experience, along with the dismissive and condescending attitude of the nursing staff, made me feel unwelcome and unsupported during an incredibly difficult time for my family. I sincerely believe that these experiences are not reflective of the high standards of care that St George Hospital should strive for. I am grateful for the doctors who provided excellent medical care, but the unprofessional behavior and lack of empathy displayed by many of the nursing staff have left a lasting negative impression on me. I am sharing this feedback with the hope that St George Hospital can address these issues and ensure that all patients and their families, regardless of their background, receive respectful and compassionate care. It is essential to create an inclusive and supportive environment for everyone who seeks care at your institution. Thank you for taking the time to consider my feedback, and I hope that my concerns can contribute to improvements in the quality of care provided by St George Hospital.

    We would love to thank all St George Hospital Birth Unit staff members special thanks to Midwives that help deliver our baby boy, Liam George, born on 24/01/2024 @ 8:51pm. Thank you, Tamarra, Paula, Lucy, and throughout the shift change that we missed your names. Thanks to Doctors, Holly, Daniel, Andrew & Trevor. All these staff members were run off their feet but still managed to smile and made us feel very welcomed. We will never forget your services. Thank you, Midwife Elizabeth for the home visit and advice. We hope someday our boy will grow up, read this review and have his kids delivered at this hospital. Thank you, St George hospital.

    This review is for the behaviour of the receptionist of emergency department. I had to go there for my eye problem it was totally bad condition but that time she was behaving so rude that was hurting mentally as well still I’m not feeling ok with that . The time was around 2.00 am to 2.30 am and she was at counter no 4 , middle aged lady , I couldn’t see her name as my eye was not in good condition. Anyway the nurse and doctor were so good and cordial but I don’t know why that receptionist behaved like that 😞.

    Completely unacceptable level of emergency service at night. The administrative lady wasn’t too nice to begin with (maybe she had a bad day/evening but she was talking rudely ) and on top of that it’s been 3 hours of waiting as of now.

    I lost my grandmother early this week after a lengthy battle with heart failure. I cannot fault the hospital and the staff in any way - my grandma was looked after very well by the community palliative care team and hospital in the home doctors and nurses, all of whom showed immense compassion, professionalism and understanding every step along the way. The nurses and aged care doctors on ward 6A were also amazing and kept us constantly informed and involved the care of my grandma when she was admitted and as she deteriorated. Thank you to all for helping us through this difficult time.

    was at St George Ward South 5 for 4 days (Room 1) and would like to express my upmost gratitude for all the staff there. The nurses are worth their weight in gold. Doctors were professional and kind. Shout out to Nurse Taylor...most wonderful nurse and person, could not speak more highly of her. They made what was a very unexpected hospital stay in a very unfamiliar place (i just happened to be in the St George area when i became unwell) a calming and bearable and even pleasant experience. Thank you again and again!

    No beds available for sick patients presenting to St. George emergency department. The triage nurse was apologetic and said "you should be in a bed, but we don't have any beds". So my partner has to remain seated in the waiting area for over 2 hours When I enquired when a doctor would be available the answer was "not sure". We ended up leaving without seeing a doctor. We pay our taxes, but emergency medical care is not accessible!!

    I had the most wonderful experience with the maternity staff at St George public. My first daughter was through a private hospital which was a terrible experience for me - this is my second birth and the ladies helped me achieve my goal of a Vbac birth and I wouldn’t have been able to without their incredible, above and beyond support. They were encouraging and kind from the moment my husband and I arrived. From the amazing staff through to the incredible facilities - I absolutely loved my experience and birth and will forever be grateful. A huge thank you especially to Tara, Bianca and Melodie ☺️☺️

    5 stars for the lovely young nurse on Counter 3 at 11.04pm on 6 Aug 23. Zero stars for the elderly lady on Counter 4. What a disgusting attitude compared to her much younger counterparts. Definitely the weak link in the chain. St George, please get rid of these bitter post menopausal ppl who have outlasted their use by date.

    I was suicidal and was talking to the male EMT about male issues and the female EMT demonstrated that she didn't want to help me any more by slamming the door in my face while walking off in front of the male EMT and my suicidal self. One year on and this has had a massive impact on my mental health as I am constantly reminded that the women here don't think I even deserve to live for talking about men's issues and will demonstrate accordingly. This isn't a great place to go for mental health, as they may even make things far worse for you if you're a male. God forbid our gender is allowed to talk about our issues. Horrendous experience when I needed help the most.

    Joshua K. Nurse educator embodies the spirit of 'Those who can't do, teach'. (7W) We shared a moment of intimacy and met up under the cover of darkness at St George Hospital - Kensington entrance (it's being renovated btw). We drove down to the Mcdonald's at Rockdale and held hands whilst i bought a happy meal as well as a double cheese burger (no pickle). He got a fillet o fish (the choice you choose if you are secretly crying for help). We then decided to go and play in the slide. Unfortunately, my IBS played up (i suspect I was poisoned earlier whilst in the staff room of 7W when deciding to choose what food to steal from the staff of morning shift) and i left a trail of destruction on the slide. Upon seeing and smelling the day's output, Joshua broke and said it reminded him too much of his patients and had to end it. A tragic love story of Romeo and Romeo by Shakespeare. I was left with an unstageable pressure injury on my sacrum from our brief stint together.

    10/10! Professional, friendly and compassionate staff. From the administrative staff, the nurses, doctors and professionals. I did wait a long time at the emergency department, however this was understandable due to an influx of patients. The waiting area is clean, accommodating and well managed.

    Cardiology clinic constantly has cardiologists leaving, which in turn leaves elderly patients stressed and with no care. This clinic has now closed with no real regard for patient care, including "letters sent" which are yet to arrive weeks after being sent, and some elderly patients being told they are not able to be transferred to other clinics.

    Shout out to the nurses and staff at the day surgery unit of St George Hospital who treated me today, particularly Pamela. They were professional, efficient, courteous and took real care of the patients there with kindness. For those who have left negative reviews or will go to the hospital in the future please remember the staff are human too. They too have lives and families outside of work, and pressures from the job and procedures they need to follow. They don't have a magic wand. I hope we can all treat hospital staff with kindness and respect, which will only help them in helping you.

    We just left!!! Firstly, the old philipina nurse at the front desk was rude. Someone should teach her how to talk to friendly people. Secondly, 5 min after going into emergency, they put my wife in a waiting room full of people all coughing and sneezing. No thank u we don't want corona virus. Knowing that there's no point to talk to those people we just left.

    St George Hospital is a great hospital. My stay in the Private ward was exactly what we needed when I gave birth to my baby girl in November 2021. The room was big enough to also have my husband stay with me while I was recuperating. During my delivery, I had a fantastic doctor and midwife team with me as I brought my baby girl into the world. The midwife, Claire, immediately made me feel safe and sound when my contractions were affecting me and my ability to think. I couldn’t have had a better delivery of my baby girl in the safe conditions provided by this hospital.

    I was taken to the ED by an ambulance at the midnight last Sunday. I was experiencing a severe headache with dizziness and vomiting due to covid. The ambulance nurses were very helpful, they took some basic checks for me and comforted me to stay calm. However, my experience with the St George ED was extremely horrible. Firstly, the waiting time was insanely long, I didn't get any treatment after 4 hours of waiting. Secondly, the environment, especially for covid patients, was terrible. We were limited in a small room, spreading the virus to each other since almost everybody was coughing and sneezing heavily. Masks were not mandatory. There's nothing but a small chair to sit no matter whether the patient was able to sit or not. All the patients including myself were lying on the ground as we were too sick to sit there. Last but not the least, the nurses were extremely indifferent. I understand they may have had enough after two years of the pandemic, they don't care anymore. But at least show some empathy when the patient was in such noticeable pain. I went to ED as I had the severe symptoms listed on the Health NSW website, the lady lying next to me got sharp chest pain, the man who arrived before us was sleeping or in a coma so I didn't know what happened to him, but we didn't get any treatment before I left. No nurse bothered to ask how we feel once we were sent into the room. Now even recalling the experience of that night is torture to me.

    I am a private patient sitting in a private hospital. I’d followed all the instructions provided to me prior to admissions including making financial payments. I had arrived on time for day surgery only to sit in a waiting room between 3-4 hours. When I had asked one of the nurses what’s the wait they very nicely advices that they don’t have a bed available - this is shocking! Its aggravating as the only deference between public and private is that in private hospitals you pay through nose and obviously get the same treatment - very sad!

    I have just stayed here for 3 days and two nights. The care I received was absolutely brilliant- from the Emergency Department through to the ward stay. The nurses were so kind, and often went above and beyond for me and others in my ward. Hats off to you all!

    Saint George Hospital deserves nothing short of a 5 star. My dad and uncle have had so many acute and chronic care provided at Saint George public and we have always been in awe of the quality of care provided, be it by the nurses, doctors or social workers. The wards are kept clean, and even the support staff has a caring attitude, which is so touching, because interactions in a hospital are taking place when patients and families are at their most fragile and sensitive. THANK YOU Saint George hospital staff.

    Attended the ED on Saturday as I had a sudden dizziness that wouldn't go away. The team were caring, attentive and the Doctor and nurses that saw me were very patient and took their time to explain my issue even though it was a busy afternoon for them. Thank you! You are appreciated.

    I would give more than 5 stars if possible. My second child is born here. The staffs and midwives are super helpful and very caring. They talk with sympathy, helps with any query and encourages your recovery. I was very happy and assured while staying there. The staffs in the newborn nursery were very friendly and caring. Whenever I called, they came to my room and helped. There are some places of improvement though. Like there should be a nutritionist who should suggest best food for the patient instead of choosing by the patient herself.

    Our experience at St George hospital was extremely positive. From emergency to childrens ward 1 East to the surgical unit. During a really traumatic time, they really helped us through. Professional, patient, kind. A convivial atmosphere where all the staff seemed like they were happy to be there with their colleagues, working together to a great result. Just wanted to express our thanks. It wasn't just one staff member, the emergency team, doctors and nurses, the children's ward team, the surgical and post op team. Amazing.

    I was hospitalized in St George's hospital almost 3 weeks ago and was advised by the doctor she will make an appointment to see me and assess my health situation plus arranging for some medical equipments to be attached to get my health issue monitored and further investigated. Sounds very nice but when I tried to call their outpatient department on 91132513 I got a very rude and unprofessional person by the name of Sophie who not only didn't even pay attention to my explanation and issue but brushed off all my nice requirements as well. She talked over me all the time, didn't let me talk, quite condescending and eventually hung up on me. The conversation only lasted 5 mins but I was left disgusted. So I called their customer complaint hotline and got a customer care manager calling me back. She took notes of my complaint and said will have the manager of the outpatient dept to call me back with the outcome. This morning I got a call from a Michelle who said she's the manager of the outpatient dept and wanted to let me know that the rude staff member is a senior one in her team and that person's manner is not questionable ... I was more shocked ...I probably will go to a different hospital next time after this first unpleasant experience with you guys.

    This is by far the best public hospital in Sydney, when my partner got sick and required three Emergency Department visits, the doctors and nurses were outstanding, especially in Short Stay Unit and Acute Care Stay, the Doctors and Nurses in Neurology and 5 South were amazing, I watched them work tirelessly and the healthcare they provided was incredible. Can’t say thanks enough for all of their care and hard work 🙏🙏🙏🙏 THANK YOU FOR BEING WONDERFUL AND KIND!!

    I want to preface with not all staff have been negligent like this but enough to be dangerous. I have an abcyss that upon admission was the size of half a ping pong ball. It swelled to the size of a grapefruit with a small banana sticking out of it. After having one nurse already twist my arm into taking a medication I knew I would react with, I did react to it and it made the pain unbearable for hours. Then while my abcyss is about to burst in my dirty sweaty hospital bed full of germs, it took 2 and a half hours to just relay a message from the dr... Do you want endone? No, if people had written down the adverse reaction from prior, you would've known it makes the pain worse. If your staff had been taking obs of the abcyss like I'd reminded them of multiple times throughout the day. People would see it's growing and they would understand the risk of infection in a grubby hospital bed that hasn't been changed in two days of high fever and diarrhoea. Not to mention drs charting things incorrectly or not at all. I get it's a public hospital and I'm not expecting the Hilton experience, but atleast record the size of the abcyss because every single staff member throughout the day said it hasn't grown. I'll finish with, some nurses have been really good, one more knowledgeable than one of the dr's even. Pointing out a potential danger with one of my supplements should I go into surgery, that the dr knew about but didn't say anything

    1 star is still to much for the kids emergency in St George hospital. My wife took our son to the kids emergency, our son couldn’t walk due to a viral infection. My son couldn’t even stand on his own legs, the KE crew kept us for 7 hours standing and sitting in the waiting room with my kid on my hands. In that 7 hours they did. USG, X-ray and blood test. After maybe 4/5 hours of almost constant crying my son had fallen a sleep on my lap in the waiting area. Unbelievable lack of organisation and a simple human empathy is something what comes to my mind after this traumatic experience. Please people with small kids, avoid this place, for the peace of mind your children.

    There was a staff member who was histerical, abusive and dishonest in the emergency department. When I visited there as a patient at about 1 am on 27/Jul/2020, I had a problem to login to the medicare app with my new phone so I asked if she could search my medicare card number with details on my ID. She said she couldn't, which I know to be untrue. Moreover, she scolded me that I shouldn't use the online app and must carry the physical medicare card, which indicates she is outdated and her knowledge is limited. I asked if I can come back since it will take time to recover the login info and it was hard for me to stand for any length of time. She shouted at me that this must be done immediately in her presence because she opened the system. I was so surprised that she was so adamant with her two colleagues in attendance. Eventually, the other staff member who was watching us called me and let me in. While the kind one was checking my injury, she swooped in and threatened me she will charge me $350 unless I bring her the medicare card before I met the doctor. Apparently, she was upset that the other staff member ruined her plan to make me suffer until she gets what she wanted whatever it was. Since the other staff member already found my medicare card number in the system with my ID info, it was no longer needed. Even though it was just bullying, still I went back to her with my medicare card on the mobile app after I finished my X-ray. Funnily enough, she pretended she was typing something onto her system as if she really needed my medicare card. Maybe this is her way to release her stress by bullying patients whenever she finds a victim whom she believes she has control over. I hope my google review and my input into the hospital survey will possibly save the 3rd victim.

    Worst ! Horrible & any other words that can describe the horror. When you go to Emergency, you will reimagine and redefine the meaning of the word Emergency itself. I had to wait 3 long hours just to see the doctor. When we finally saw a doctor, he said he wanna talk to keep us engaged to see the Main doctor. I said what the F.. ( Sorry ) ! There were no beds too. We couldn’t hold for another 2 hours. So, returned home without treatment ( F.. ) ( Sorry again ! )

    To be honest, I don't know if I'll choose to give birth here for my second one. Went there as i was in labour, was "Welcomed" by a very grumpy midwife who basically told me i was exaggerating the pain. Shared my room with a "medical case", meaning non stop coming of doctors to check on her : never close the door, light on, off, on, off... had zero opportunity to rest. Asked for vegetarian food, been given beef every meal... I mean overall you're just a number to them. Oh! And the radiology? Rude AS. Emergency? Went there with a massive mastitis (like a golf ball size) ... Nope, they just sent me home.....I mean i know they are trying their best while being understaffed, but this is the place where we become mums for the first time, so a little more passion be appreciated.

    I have spent the last week in this hospital being cared for by the most fantastic people. 3 shifts a day and not once have any of them been without a kind word, friendly smile or instant helpful response. I'm saving names so as not to embarrass any of them but each one who looked after me in ward 2 south room 8 bed 1 is a true legend of their profession and deserves every ounce of my thanks and respect. We should be proud to have staff like this in our medical profession. It's what makes Australia one of the world's best in this field. Well done??? sincere recommendations to anyone coming here...you're in excellent hands?

    A large hospital located in Kogarah, close Kogarah station. After renovation they get good looking. It's a quite busy hospital, service is fine, staffs are friendly. But Emergency Department always waiting for long time. All the hospitals parking are expensive, same as St George hospital. Many people park around but street parking allowed two hours only still full, you have to go far if you need long time parking.

    Recent additions make emergency admissions much faster and more organised. Out of the ambulance, directly into triage, then literally next door for emergency care, then treatment as per your needs. Patient data moves electronically from ambulance to admin to emergency to wherever. Much better, until you get to your older paper files. A lot of money has been spent on workflow and physical layout, making it easier for people to work there, so better patient care. I've always found the staff here to be of high calibre, so the changes just make things better when your in need or in an emergency.

I feel so sorry for my mother who waited 8 hours and still here to see a doctor for her swollen eye, lymph nodes and lumps of her head. I have waited with her to ease her pain but this place is a joke. Their is no courtesy and alot of negligence. You have guidelines you must follow so please do so. Yes you are run off you're feet, noone understands that more then I do as I work in the industry but courtesy, respect and understanding wouldnt go astray.

    The service here was honestly above and beyond despite being here for terrible circumstances. My mum came here via an ambulance and was transferred to ICU. The new facilities allowed her to have her own room and be as comfortable as possible while we were treated with great care from the receptionists in ICU through to the nurses, surgeons and doctors. Unfortunately, my mum didn't make it but I am thankful for the brilliant support and care from all the staff involved during this traumatic time.

    Doctors unprofessional and received terrible care from doctors and staff... some nurses are nice and try their best but most are bad at their job. Asked to move to private hospital as I have private insurance or compromise and go to royal north shore public but so far they have denied my request. edit: after trying to leave the hospital in an extremely weak state, dragging my bags because wasn't strong enough to lift them... nurses stopped me at the elevator and pushed through a request to have me transferred to private where I received much better care. St George public is desperate for money and will do anything to keep you with them rather than allow transfer to private. My advice is if you have insurance push to go to private when you are in public emergency and you might have a better chance having it approved smoothly.

    There is a nurse in on the 4th floor (Covid19 vaccine area) that is absolutely brilliant when it comes to vaccine jabs that is from New Zealand. She is excellent in every way possible and made me feel so comfortable and very well informed. There should be 1000 of her on that whole floor doing the vaccines as she knows what she is doing, explains everything and it doesn't even feel like she is giving you a jab. She really made my second visit there a comfortable stress free one. 30 years of nursing experience blinking well shows! 3 weeks ago I had one of the worse nurses there that made me bleed plus my arm was in alot of pain from the time she administered the Pfizer. I think she jabbed it too deep as it was excruciatingly painful from the word go. Personally, I feel, she shouldn't be doing vaccines at all! Nice enough girl, but not the greatest with needles as the experience for me was on the side of traumatic. Where the hospital is concerned - I found it very hygienic, easy to navigate and the staff were very pleasant and helpful. A+

    Staff are nice but feels very disorganised. Lots of admin mistakes and very long wait times. Also they do not allow unvaccinated family or friends to accompany emergency patients, regardless of a previous recovery, medical exemption or negative covid test. This was very traumatic for my partner and I when she suffered a miscarriage. Seems like a dated, unscientific and discriminatory policy nowadays, especially considering what we now know about the temporary effectiveness of the covid vaccines. I hope they change this rule in the future.

    Can not fault the neurosurgical team! After experiencing the most excruciating pain, they treated me with the utmost empathy and loving care. Very passionate team that loves what they do which in turn gave me the exact care I needed to return home pain free. Issues however with the communication between wards is a red flag. Nursing staff were lovely however transferring between wards left me in limbo and traumatised due to the lack of communication. One ward seemed to have the “not my job” attitude which was disappointing.

    I can not thank the medical staff enough, who went out of their way to help me, and ensure I got complete care. Coming from the US where hospitals can be a nightmare, this was truly a good experience for me and made me remember that doctors and nursing staff are kind and caring. I just want to say thanks to the emergency room staff and short stay for all your assistance. It was so very much appreciated.

    Nothing but kind words for this hospital and all their staff. I came through emergency and was taken very seriously, went straight through before being admitted for 2 weeks to the respiratory ward. Although there was some delays due to the Easter weekend I was kept up to date and treated with a great respect. All the nurses on 6B have my highest praise, and Dr Metti and his team were incredible. I’ve also been through emergency for a less pressing concern, although I had to wait (as expected for non life threatening concerns) the staff were lovely and happy to answer my questions about my wait time. Once seen by the Dr they were amazing, apologetic about waiting and attended to my needs with professionalism and got me out of there in a timely manner. 10/10 would recommend this hospital to anyone

    Worst treatment in paediatrics this evening. Took my autistic child to emergency after violently vomiting all day… The staff were so uninterested and treated us like we were inconveniencing them by being there. I had repeatedly asked for them to give him medication to stop the vomiting. He continued violently vomiting for the 3hrs we were there and it took for me to threaten to leave and take my child to another hospital before they felt the need to give my child the medication. Shame on you St George Hospital!!

They can clearly see that I can take care of myself and told them I could not even bath myself.

    I went to see a family doctor due to my physical condition not being suitable for 12/10/2023, but later due to severe illness, I was referred by the family doctor to the emergency of St. George's Hospital for treatment. After investigation and testing by nurses and doctors in the emergency department, it was ultimately decided that I should stay in the hospital for management and observation, and only leave when my life is safe. (Stayed in the orthopedic department of Block west 3/F). After two days of medication treatment and professional care, my condition did not decrease or be under control. Due to the pain of my condition and various uncertain psychological factors, I experienced great emotional pressure, (I had already confirmed my flight schedule for five days in the future, on the 17/10/2023, with the aim of attending my father-in-law's funeral, which was a struggle amidst the torment of illness and family relationships.) Before making a decision, there was finally good news that the hospital could arrange emergency hand surgery treatment as soon as tomorrow (on the 14/10/2023), which is also the safest, fastest, and best method for the patient. Everything went smoothly during the two hour anesthesia surgery, and after continuing to stay in the hospital for observation and treatment for two days, you can leave the hospital. During these days of psychological distress and extreme physical pain in the hospital, I would like to express my gratitude to the members of the medical team at St George Hospital for providing professional treatment and providing me with almost perfect cooperation. Once again, on behalf of me and my family, I would like to express my gratitude to all the medical staff who have provided professional services to patients.

    One star is still too much for them 😡😡😡😡 What do you mean by Emergency department??? I took my 4-month-old daughter to an emergency department due to high temperature and vomiting at around 10 pm. They asked us to wait outside the paediatric unit. BEING A MOM, I was constantly worried about the health of my baby. They asked us to wait, wait and only wait. They just took body temperature 🤒 which was not coming down to normal. They did nothing nothing except give us a fake hope with their rude attitude. I constantly asked them when I could see the doctor for my baby!! They said there is only one doctor, there are other emergencies too, you need to wait, 😡😡😡😡 Come on, just one doctor in this big hospital???? And also what emergency you are talking about? What about my baby? She had high fever which was not coming down to normal for 6,7 hours!! Isn’t that emergency???? Finally, after 8 hours, one of the doctors came and checked on my baby, I asked her why my baby vomited a big vomit!! She was not sure and went to ask her senior. She disappeared for an hour. I was holding my baby from 10 pm to 5 am, and still, there was no diagnosis or treatment for my baby. So, I just wanted to request you all, please don't go to this place…… For the first time ever, I feel pity for being a nurse myself. I am not talking about all but some of the so-called nurses need to learn some manners and fix their attitude.

    Hospital can be a terrible experience but the staff in emergency and the nurses and doctors I saw to help treat my emergency were amazing. You have to understand these people are flat out busy all the time and still smile and be professional. To the staff, Thank you so much for the assistance and helping me get back to health in such a quick turn around.

    This hospital has really gone down hill! I waited in ED for 11 hours just to find out people who came after me were seen and discharged! I kept asking and asking until I got one of the staff member to check to only know that I was skipped numerous times because of a check point problem! I was there for a major spine and neck injury! My mother died in this freaking hospital they cared for her so well! As she was practically living there for over 2 years! But this time I don’t think I can ever trust them again!
