Arrived at 12:30 am for a badly infected ear drum. We were shuffled around through the night and by 3:15 we had still not seen a Doctor. There was only 5 other kids there when we arrived at it still took almost 3 hours of waiting. Definitely the place to be if you don't mind listening to you child suffering needlessly. I will say that the "check in " nurse was very pleasant. One good thing in a list of WTFs.
Do Not Take Your Children To This Dentistry Department; dishonest shocking behaviour..!Recently moved to the neighbourhood and commute past the hospital every week day around 615-645am and its absurd; not a single staff vehicle stops at the stop sign (barely signal) nor do they bother stopping at the red light before the turn into the staff lots! The speed limit is 30-40km and they go 50-60km right past the front of the Childrens Hospital they work in... I watch them run the light and have had them speed up to cut me off to get that single car length ahead far to many times.. Hopefully a camera gets set up; clearly your education didnt involve common sense and your paid to much to have common curtesy for basic driving laws :( Arrogance at its finest..!
The nurses are truly very amazing, they really care for the well-being of my child and every time I have gone there, the experience has been great.The doctors are mostly on time, the delay in getting care for my daughter is usually acceptable. I am impressed by the hospital's commitment to creating an environment that lets children relax, even though they are there for treatment.I am glad we have a hospital of this stature in our City, it is truly a place of healing for children and families. Parking is great, and access is convenient.The standards are truly world-class.
Current construction makes getting in a bear, signage sucks, so plan extra time. The entire parkade is single lane one way, so also plan extra time in case someone holds everyone up to wait for a spot . Pay parking is pricey however thats not the hospitals fault. Once inside its clean, bright, and fantastically welcoming for kids. All the staff is amazing and great.
We live in the US, and usually get treated immediately. Last night we went in at 10:00pm and weren't treated until 3:00am. My little sister was bitten by a dog and was constantly bleeding through the bandages until she was finally attended to. Then, it took the doctor three hours to clean the wound and administer stitches. They made us wait until the pharmacy opened at 7:00am so they could get her the necessary shot. The waiting room was packed with miserable parents and crying babies. These parents deserve better. How do you staff only one single doctor on a Sunday night, and not give that doctor access to the medical treatments that he needs for his patients. Great healthcare, Canada.
