Stay away from this place! Very understaffed. Disgusting conditions, an elder lady peed herself in the waiting room. No one cleaned it up. They just put a wet floor sign on it. Watched a man fall onto the floor crying of pain. And the staff did not care. This place is traumatic.

I was waiting here for 8 hours with possible appendicitis and people who where coming in 1 hour ago where get called super quick. Also i was not allowed to eat so i was sitting there half starved as well. A whole group of people who where waiting 8 hours as well where waiting/starving and we sorta formed a annoyed at the staff squad. The guy in the x-ray office was pretty cool so that was good. And please hire more doctorsthere was only one in ER for the whole afternoon.

Husband went in for pain on his right side at 5:30pm. Took all sorts of test and before midnight he was diagnosed with appendicitis. A full 26 hours later he goes in for surgery. Ridiculous!!! Appendix bursting is extremely dangerous. He was drugged up during the entire time. In waiting room and than in a gurney in the emergency hallway for hours before being moved to a room than finally into the OR. Run down, unsanitary, not by enoughf or the volume of traffic this hospital receives.

My opinion, it needs to be shut down, renovated and expanded and than reopened. I don't know how it passes health inspections.

Plus the cafeteria and facilities are horrendous.

We went here for a complaint of persistent abdominal pain and although we came early at 4:45 AM to 'beat the crowd,' it was still a total of 14 hrs. spent in Emergency. 14 hrs! This is not patient-centred care. It was a constant pattern of waiting 1/2 hr. for a scan, then 2 hrs. for the MD to comment a few words on it, then send for another scan and repeat. Near the end, we were so impatient and frustrated to see all other patients come and go throughout the day, we had to ask what's going on, to which an RN was surprised we were still there! Luckily he was kind enough to try to expedite things for us. I understand all Emergency departments are congested and the healthcare system is underfunded but at least try to find a way to streamline the process for patients. Really terrible planning with utter disregard for comfort and anxiety of patients. Please re-evaluate because this is ridiculous!

My husband was seen here for a medical eval after experiencing a problem while flying on Air Canada. The staff were friendly and caring. This is clearly a very busy Emergency Department. They do not have enough rooms for the volume of patients. The facility is old and looks very tired. Despite all this, the medical and support staff were upbeat and got my husband evaluated in a timely fashion. They were familiar with the procedures required by Air Canada and we were discharged within 5 hours, not bad for an emergency evaluation. Thanks to all of you for a job well done.

The staff were all very kind and friendly. Very helpful. The conditions they have to work in are deplorable. Extremely unclean. Working in such conditions will make anyone cranky.
Everything is sticky with garbage, blood and body fluids on the floors. And quite possibly the walls. It seems incredulous to me that the Board of Directors would allow anyone to work in conditions such as this. How the Ministry of Health allows this hospital to operate is beyond me. Osler you should be ashamed of yourself. I am embarrassed for those who work hard to care for, and heal, our sick and injured. I spent 12 hours wandering around the hospital while my husband was in ER. The staff were all helpful, approachable, friendly and focused. Thank you! But I am saddened to say, if you do have to go to this hospital , do not sit on anything. Do not touch anything. Please wear gloves.

I had a baby at this hospital and the nurses and doctors were just GREAT. The doctors were honest and gave me their best advice. I felt comfortable to ask questions, no matter how ridiculous they seemed.

The nurses were SO knowledgeable. They were personable, helping and went above and beyond every time they dealt with us. As being first time parents, we had lots of questions and the nurses were there to help (ie, showing us how to swaddle, bathing a baby, breast-feeding, letting us know when the lactation consultant was in). Nurses even visited us after their shifts to make sure we were doing okay.

I had to have a C-section and had very little knowledge of the procedure however everything was explained out. I was introduced to every person who took part in the surgery, and my baby and my health and safety was the #1 concern.

The only complaint I do have was the semi-private rooms were tiny! On our first night with our new bundle of joy, my husband had to sleep in a normal chair, barely able to fit in to our little section. If you have to spend the night, I'd suggest asking for a private room.

I will tell anyone I know to go to this hospital when having their baby, the staff was amazing!!!

Visit the ultrasound department.It is really fantastic facility and very organized.
The reception girl was little sad but we were not there to see her.
Everything else was great experience

This place gets a bump wrap but the brilliant emergency doctor found my 17 year Olds blood clot in his lung. He could have dismissed the blood work as a false positive. Great nurses.

Slowest hospital I have ever been to. Signing in alone takes around 20 mins (if you're lucky and they don't misspell your name on the wrist bands and labels, which they have done! ). Every nurse I've interacted with here has been rude and not helpful and the overall environment is the most depressing and miserable I've ever witnesses. Hallways are tight, dark and dirty looking. Signage sucks and is incredibly difficult to get where you're trying to go. Will not be back here for anything other than a really horrendous emergency.

My mom was rushed to the hospital. She died. Up to this dayI don't know what time she died, where she died or even what was the cause of her death. No one could give me an answer. They just kept telling my family and I that we have to wait for the coroner.
My mother is dead. My family and I were in the emergency room with her for over 9 hours. The amount of noise and people coming in and out and telling you to move out of the way, the amount of people sticking there heads in to see who died. It was absolutely disrespectful!
Fast forward to around 7:45 p.m.the night nurse comes over and asks what and why are we still here? We explained that everyone else said that we have to wait on the coroner. She said you have been here the whole time? We said yes. She immediately called for someone to move my mom to a quiet room where we would be able to have some peace. On top of that, she told us that we did not have to wait for the coroner.
On top of all thatMy mom laid dead and they told us that they could not remove the breathing mask on her face, they could not remove the iv and they could not move the body to another room from the time she had passed away.
There are so many more horror stories that went on at this hospital that if I have more energy another day, I will write what happened.
Let me finish now by sayingin order for me to find out those few basic questions about her passing, I have to pay $35 to find out.
I was there and not one nurse or one doctor could give me an answer.
Absolutely pathetic. This is not something you can get over so easily and on top of it allI am still grieving my mom. My mom was in the hospital 2 weeks prior and I barely left her side because I know the nurses and doctors don't care. I've witnessed it myself and seen others go through it.
The worst experience of my life.

What an amazing job these people do. Nurses, Doctors, and other workers worked tirelessly to help roughly 30+ Humber College students last night. Thank you so much for your efforts!
