Loma Linda University Children's Hospital

Took my 3 yr old daughter here a few days ago to the childrens ER and from the minute we got there we were take care of. The whole staff made her a priority and even brought toys and crafts to keep her happy throughout the whole night. I was so overwhelmed and stressed but the staff did such an amazing job taking care of her and getting her the medical care she needed that night. My baby keeps asking me to take her back to “ the doctors” ❤️

I took my son in about a month ago for croup-like coughing to the Emergency Room and I waited in the department for over two hours just to be told that there was nothing they could do for my son and told me to give him comfort. No breathing treatment, steroids, testing, absolutely nothing. She said she couldn’t figure out what was wrong but it was viral. I then proceeded to cry because I had went a month of being told “it’s viral there’s nothing we can do” so then the doctor all of a sudden “played it by ear” and said it sounded like whooping cough but there was nothing she could do because it was out of the week treatment time and was handed our discharge papers. I felt as if she self diagnosed him to make me feel better about him having something. I immediately called his doctors to inform them of the visit and they were highly concerned of this doctors credentials because she A) diagnosed my son without properly testing him and B) offered no sort of treatment for the condition when medicine CAN be given. I went into the doctors office and they ordered a chest x-ray as well as a whooping cough test and he was NEGATIVE for whooping cough and positive for croup. He had to be given two rounds of steroids and multiple breathing treatments over the course of the next two weeks. Had the doctor caught this at your facility, we could have saved another medical bill that we can’t afford already and he would have been properly treated and in recovery. Definitely not recommending this place to anyone, and you really need to check that doctors practice skills because she’s just trying to get patients and not the proper care.

Our Daughter (4) was admitted from a Tuesday to Saturday in the Neuro dept. Nurse Sasha, tabs, Amanda, Jay, the pediatrician, epileptologist Liu and the students under her, and every helping hand was extremely caring of our daughter. Made her incredibly comfortable while she was stuck in bed. I will be forever GREATFUL for the kindness shown, and patience given. And all of the helpfulness and compassion we received. Thank you guys truly

My daughter Leilah Velasquez 11/15/11 had her tonsils and adenoids removed by Dr. Olee here at this hospital. This was just yesterday, but I felt a strong need to write a review as soon as possible to share my pleasant experience. I had never been to this hospital let alone the Loma Linda area. I reside in Montclair, about 30-40 minutes away. So I had no idea what I was in for. From the minute we walked into the hospital we were greeted by a few friendly faces happy to point us in the right direction. It is a huge hospital/area and there are parts that are under construction but there was always someone around to guide you. From the prep surgery staff Christine and Julie who were so sweet an helpful, to the child life coach who talked to my child to help her understand what she was going through and helped her feel more at ease. (The Teddybear story was a great idea, wait till your kids see it, they offer an Ipad so they can play games, watch movies etc while they wait to be taken back, really helped relax her )to the recovery team which I am so sad that I cannot read the recovery nurse's name on the sweet card they gave to my Leilah signing it personally saying how great she did so I can give him praise on here on how great he cared for her when she came out of surgery. He made sure she was comfortable and made her smile. He even offered me coffee which was much appreciated after a long day. I hope whoever reads this from the hospital can look us up and see who that was and let him know we appreciated him and he really should be praised. He is an exceptional asset to this company. It is because of people like him and everyone we made contact with that day, this visit was less scary and enjoyable. And you always hear the negative, but hardly hear the positive. I highly recommend this hospital and would refer my family and friends. Thank you LLUCH!!!
