Best hospital ever . I traveled their from mount gambier Tuesday morning to have a thing done on my lung best staff ever A1 class
As our first experience with SWH goes, I cannot speak more highly of the medical and nursing staff. My son sustained a serious knee injury playing Basketball and sent across from Portland. The Ortho team that reviewed him in ED were fantastic and swiftly ordered an MRI and he was booked for theatre. He was admitted to the paediatric unit and the staff were nothing short of amazing.
What a wonderful establishment. My husband required emergency bowel surgery and every aspect was handled swiftly and so professionally with the most wonderful health care. Our thanks to all the staff. This should be the standard on which our health care system is based. WELL DONE WARMAMBOOL BASE HOSPITAL.
Emergency Department, efficient and professional, yes but also are happy, cheery to take the tension out of the air. Make you feel at ease. All staff are very well mannered and informative. They make you feel welcome and are not a bother. I had a brief visit, 10/04/2017, how good it was to see smiles and the occasional song being sung (don't give up your day jobs lol), l found this very relaxing and comforting. Real people. You could nearly say its a pleasure to visit them. Thank you for taking the best care of me.
Lovely staff, I wish I could have all my hospital stays here.
By far the best experience i ever had at any hospital. We were down from Melbourne fishing at port fairy, and my good friend broke his foot pretty badly. So we stopped in to this hospital on our way home. From word go the staff were confusing amazing! Really charismatic, sweet, sympathetic, accommodating, and most importantly prompt.my friend had two x rays and a ct scan and had his foot plastered in 3 hours of being there! And not to mention he was seen by the most loveliest doctor Alex, and a bone specialist, and the friendliest nurse. We were sad leaving the place lol we didn't want to go home. Thanks guys u were all amazing!!!!
I went there with a breathing difficulty due to severe hay fever allergy and after 3 hours of waiting they gave me a 25mg antihistamine and asked me to wait a few more hours if I wanted to see a doctor.
Great country hospital. The physicians are excellent and many sit on the board of examiners for physician training so you're getting a good deal. The nursing staff are similarly excellent though the emergency department is not always staffed by the most experienced clinicians. That's about to change though as they are currently hiring someone new to lead it full-time. The new buildings are also looking very impressive.
