    A mediocre clinic with prices for tests and beds, if hospitalized, much higher of better clinics in Santo Domingo. And adding insult to injury they make you wait as much as an hour just to pay for their services, too cheap or indifferent to hire more persons at billing to handle their always overflowed waiting room. Most of the doctors are OK and some - like Dr. Domingo Taveras, a cardiologist- superior, but the management needs to be reminded that they are running a clinic not a money printing machine.

    Whether reviewers here give it 5 stars or just one, depends on personal experience and expectations, so don't give much attention to the number of stars. The reality is that this hospital is good and the personnel in the emergency is working hard, doing their best, but at times they are overwhelmed with patients. The reality is - you may be attended in three min or in three hours, but still within reasonable time as compared to emergency rooms wait times in Canada and the US. the service may be slow at times, but will also be comparable, if not better. Only doctors speak English, the rest of staff speaks the sibao dialect of Dominican Spanish, which is hard to understand even if you speak Spanish well, but not a native speaker, so if you have some local friend or family, they will be useful. If you end up being hospitalized, you will discover the rooms to be a very good condition, clean and well equipped, the staff in the hospital floors much more available, caring, polite and helpful, although not super fast - they will not go out of their zone of slow poking comfort to help you even if they assure you they will. Despite a few minuses, overall it is a good hospital.

    We are very disappointed with the service we have encountered here at Centro Medico Bournigal the day of the test we waited more than 6 hours, we had made an appointment for 8am. When we arrived we placed our name on a list. We saw people paying to cut the line, friends and acquaintances were let in immediately while we waited to be served. There was lack of communication between the workers in the establishment, pretty much chaos. After waiting almost an entire day we were assured we would receive our results. That’s where the other nightmare began, my brother in laws last name was spelled incorrectly. We contacted the agency many times assuring us that they would rectify the problem, we waited for the change and tried calling many times and they would hang up on us. We are now at the airport hoping that we are allowed on the flight with the misspelled last name. This establishment is a nightmare, I recommend you look for an alternative lab to get this done. Rating of 0/10

    I took my test for return to the US and was promised a three hour turnaround. It's now 28 hours and counting. My flight leaves in 12 hours and I still have no test. The worst experience I've ever had. 😪

    (Translated by Google) This is the oldest hospital in the province and therefore needs a lot of help from politicians. The Hospital looks abandoned and does not have what it takes to continue operating (Original) Este es el Hospital más viejo de la provincia y por lo mismo tanto necesita mucha ayuda de los políticos.

    Terrible Experience, We are 76 & 83 years old. We went to the Emergency Room, with a very severe cough and cold like symptoms. We were MisDiagnosed, and were given Prescritions, that we have now found out were the wrong presciptions, were dangerous to be used by people over 60 years old. The medications made us very very sick. We had to leave Puerto Plata and take an emergency flight back to the United States. If we could have given them a rating of less than one would have done so. I am contacting Visa and will be disputing the charge.

    Caught covid 19 and was treated and can say what a great clinic to end up in, Got first class care and was treated like a king. Recovered from a very bad covid 19 which many thought I would not . Call out to the Great Dr Johnny Taveras who treated me. Now recovering and feeling like new. Best clinic on the north coast. And a great add the food is great the nurses brilliant loving beautiful people.

    We had to rush our 1 year old son to this hospital after he had (what we found out to be) a febrile seizure. The entire staff in the Emergency Room, upon entry to being dispatched, were OUTSTANDING! Their calm demeanor, level of questioning, and very clear explanations on what the next steps were going to be made the overall experience, especially as first time parents, excellent! Honestly, we had a better experience here than any Emergency Room in the United States. Well done and thank you, Centro Medico Bournigal staff!

    (Translated by Google) When I went to give birth to my son there was not a bed available for me, so in the hallway they let me do all the centimeters until very late in the morning that was when a bed was finally vacated, luckily he attended me A young girl but very kind during childbirth because if not the experience is that I do not want it to anyone. (Original) Cuando fui a dar a luz a mi hijo no había una cama disponible para mi, así que en el pasillo me dejaron hacer todos los centímetros hasta horas bien tarde de la madrugada que fue cuando al fin se desocupo una cama, menos mal que me asistió una chica joven pero muy amable durante el parto porque es que si no la experiencia es que no se la deseo a nadie.

    The clinic was clean, on time and efficient. Absolutely no complaints. Dr. Souhair Aoun was AMAZING... 10stars. She did not rush us , answered dozens of questions and was extremely knowledgeable. She was on time and did not keep us waiting 1 minute past our scheduled appointment time.

    (Translated by Google) there work people who help in what they can to the patients, but many of the doctors treat the patients with an indifference, one of the health centers better equipped, but the treatment to the patients is inhuman, one of the health center at the national level better equipped, good people work but have very bad treatment with patients (Original) allí trabajan persona que ayudan en lo que puedan a los pacientes, pero muchos de los médicos tratan a los pacientes con una indiferencia, unos de los centros de salud mejor equipado, pero el trato a los pacientes es inhumano, uno de los centro de salud a nivel nacional mejor equipado, trabajan personas buenas pero tienen muy mal trato con los pacientes

  • 5/5 Jeremy F. 5 months ago on Google
    Visiting from the USA and we had to bring my father in for a heart issue. The hospital and doctors and nurses were quick and professional. The doctor took care of the issue immediately and my dad was feeling fine almost instantly. It was a scary moment but the hospital staff worked together and fixed it all. The new cath lab at the hospital was a life saver, literally.

  • 5/5 Alex C. 8 months ago on Google
    I had to rush my son to the hospital due ti a terrible infection. The pediatric doctors and nurses were OUTSTANDING. I was concerned of poor care but my wife and I walked away from the whole experience very surprised. Another variable is that we have an international Humano health coverage which helped speed up the care my son needed. I am grateful to the medical staff at this hospital.
