For the past few months,since July 2017 I have been a cancer patient at Groote Schuur and during this time,also had to undergo two operations as a result of my cancer.
The treatment I have received up to now,is the best that I can think of.There is definitely no other hospital where you will receive the same qualitative treatment

Laken Jade I totally disagree with you.Your experience is unfortunately exeptional.As a cancer patient of Groote Schuur since July 2017,I underwent 2 serious operarions.During this time I have admitted to ward F 26.The care that I received and still receive,is the best in South Africa and in Africa.
In January 2018 I will be admitted there for 6 weeks Radiation treatment.I go there because I know that I will be in very good and extremely capable hands

To all the people that are critisizing Groote Schuur for the lifts,rudiness and dirtiness,please take note of the following;

Since 16 January 2018 up to 21 January 2018 I have been treated for cancer at Groote Schuur.I therefore have a very intimate knowledge of this hospital.

This is the cleanest hospital I have ever encountered.The staff are extremely helpfull and very effecient.During this time I have never encountered a rude person.

I trust Groote Schuur with my life.Thank God for a hospital like this

I was admitted on the 27th of April 2015 due to being diagnosed with Hepatitis A. Stayed for three weeks. Staff were great and attentive. Need I say more. Lack of entertainment (no TV in the ward) is my only criticism. However I used my smartphone, books and magazines to keep me entertained.

At first it was daunting to have a loved one admitted to a state hospital but we met so many loving and caring nursing staff, doctors, porters, security staff etc that in the end we left feeling sad that we were leaving people we had formed bonds with. Yes, the hospital is not always perfect since it's so large with hundreds passing through its doors each day.
Having said that, their processes are ordered and strict and that ensures that things run smoothly to the benefit of the patients in their care. Looking back now, we can fully appreciate the work done at Groot Schuur in caring for the people of the Western Cape and beyond. A special mention to staff of ward F22 and our 'Angel Doctor' in Trauma unit.

There are very few friendly hospital staff members. The ones that are kind enough to help you and answer your questions when you ask are most valuable to Groote Schuur, but the majority of the staff are just rude, slow and extremely impatient. The hospital is also very loud, which doesn't offer much quiet time for patients in the casualty area. How do you expect anyone to get any sleep around there?
The floors are filthy, and they don't even have pillows for patients.
There needs to be an improvement somewhere along the line.

The Big Barn that was famous for all the right reasons. And now for all the wrong. But still the only way out for those who can't afford

It's difficult to get to a certain level, most of the lifts are out of order or are restricted for theather patients only. It's even more of a challenge if you have someone in a wheelchair that can not use the stairs.

Sometimes nurses slip up (for instance giving patients wrong medication resulting in them not being able to get operated on), but they have lots of patients, so it is to be expected at some time.

At least most of the staff was very helpfull and takes fairly good care of all the patients. It is also difficult sometimes to contact the hospital if you want to hear about the well being of a patient or when they will be operated.

Some staff at ICU and ward G17 can be very rude to patients but other than that, this is a great hospital. PS if hospital staff are rude to you, report them to Medical Superintendents on E-Floor. They really do help.
