Weiss is an amazing hospital place to work with. We have built a strong working relationship with their Case Management and Social Services team. They are very professional and very hands-on with their patients. More power to this group. They’re being lead by a great leader. (Dana F.)

An ER doctor attend to my mother one time. She’s asthmatic and was going through lung problems. My mother was crying out for help and the nurses kept telling my mother to be quite. And then soon after that, the doctor had security take my mother outside while she was in a wheelchair and left her outside… I’m not going into details on what happened after. This hospital is poor and have bad doctors. They don’t care for your well being. It’s just a job for them really but they treat you like you don’t matter. Don’t go here.

Strange and dark. Kind staff though. Wish they had washed their hands and followed protocol more. I was there for 12 hours.

Went in with a broken collarbone. The doctor said (without even looking or testing range of motion or asking me a single question) that it was dislocated. I could feel and see the bone protruding. They told me to go get Motrin and give it a couple weeks. I demanded X-rays. The X-ray showed it was broken as well as my elbow. Then they again told me to leave and buy Motrin. This was from a scooter crash I had open abrasions all over me and they didn’t even treat anything not even a bandaid. As I was leaving in excruciating pain I was screaming and holding up my own broken arm (no cast no sling, nothing) while the doctor, the horrible good awful nurse, and 4 other staff members stood within 5 feet of me and no one helped at all. The nurse just told me be quiet and the security people laughed at me. No discharge paperwork. Just turned me loose humiliated with a snapped collarbone. Going to Midwest today hopefully get some of this treated. I’ve never been treated so dangerously and recklessly in my life. That hospital is filthy and the ER needs to be shut down. That nurse has no business dealing with patients. And if those are doctors, I’m Oprah Winfrey.

My dad was admitted to the ER and then to the third floor. He is unable to talk or move. The staff seemed to be avoiding patients.

I was in the room with my dad for four hours and the nurses rarely checked on him. I pressed the nurse button several times, but it took about 25 minutes for someone to come in. I finally walked out of the room and looked around. A few nurses saw me and I pressed the button again. Then they came in.

When I asked the nurses questions, they seemed like they didn't want to be there. My questions about my dad were disregarded and unanswered. A male nurse said he would get back to me, but it's been four hours and I still haven't heard from him.

The staff is super rude when I ask simple questions, like how many visitors are allowed in the room. One guy just said, "I don't know, ask the nurses."

This is a terrible experience. The staff seems like they don't want to work.

Horrible. The staff is inappropriate and unprofessional. Trying to be seen by someone was a 5 hour wait. (Tried to give the benefit of the doubt as they are clearly understaffed). When I was finally able to get checked out the doctors wouldn’t even give me the time of day to answer my questions, ultimately ending in me spending thousands of dollars on unnecessary testing. I would’ve rather google my symptoms and listened to that advice instead.

Easily the least competent hospital I have ever dealt with. Everything from their appointments to their recordkeeping is a nightmare. You'll have to call several times before they'll even pick up, and then they'll redirect you to the wrong department (this has happened 3 times) so you have to keep starting over. The operators have limited English skills so everything will be harder than it needs to be.

Just avoid this hospital at all costs.

The worst experience, the attention is horrible they make you wait for hours, to be honest I would prefer die before go to this hospital.
In addition I need to pay for my hospital bill and they gave a phone number where they told me they don’t have any information about me, and still I’m reading my medical bills in my box email.. I feel frustrated with this people… I never come back again to this hospital..

Weiss is excellent in many ways, with many dedicated professionals.
In the past couple of years I was a patient there. I observed many areas where improvements could be made.
For all patients, I especially hope this is done for the greater community.

The ER is terribly maintained. Don’t have enough actual rooms so some patients are placed in chairs alongside the wall. Also the staff discusses other patient health information out loud so we were able to hear a lot of details regarding other patients- not sure if that violates hippa but we definitely heard things that we wish we didn’t.
