Bad experience ever had in my life. I took my son there few days ago in emergency ward. We waited 10 hours .but the doctor never show up. When I made queries about doctors waiting timing period. Everyone said not sure.about it . We have to wait more . Very ridiculous Just back home without seeing doctor. 😅

My son was transferred here from birth issues due to my home town hospital's mistake. They took excellent care of my son. They included us every morning in his care plan. They kept us involved daily! They helped us with parking, food, drinks. The first day there they got us into Ronald McDonald charity house without us having to do anything. They made it easy to be with our son and they were all amazing! Couldn't thank them enough!!

The worse ER experience I’ve ever encountered . The wait is super long and they simply just don’t care . My son was vomiting for 3 hours straight and nothing was done.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Deb Cook | Dec 19, 2021

If I waited a half hour I'd be asking when they are calling our number. I know they give a number in ER. Your number is called an then someone comes an gets you. I personally would not wait no more than half hour to find out when I'm going to be called back.

Who’s services ever no communication been waiting for 6hours I wish I can take my kids elsewhere

Lyly Style | Nov 19, 2021
Deb Cook | Nov 19, 2021

Are you waiting in the ER. It's usually pretty fast unless they are waiting for a room to be admitted. Right now the hospital is so busy with the covid-19 it may take longer. Step out of the room an ask what's taking so long. Feel free to ask a nurse anytime about your wait.

Yes masks and 2 adults per child at the moment. But don't trust it, they can change on a dime so call them before coming in. They won't be lenient from the rules they have applied.

There is a cafe that serves Starbucks. Look for Clementines Cafe at the corner of the Blue and Orange paths. (Near the Outpatient Care Center) It is only open M-F 7a-5p. There is also The Magic Bean which sells ice cream and some Starbucks coffee as well, but is open longer hours. (On the Blue Path by the Magic Forest) Worst case, there is a Panera across the street, and a Tim Hortons 2 buildings down. (Over past the CVS at Parsons & Livingston. Be careful crossing the street, people drive crazy.)
