Driscoll Children's Hospital

Dr. Oshman (ENT) was my daughter's surgeon for 3 procedures done all at once: tonsil removal, adenoids removed, and tubes inserted in both ears. He was perfect! I 100% trusted his skills as a surgeon, and he also had wonderful bedside manner. The intake nurse(I wish I had her name) was amazing. She noticed we had been sitting in the waiting room for a bit too long and people had been coming and going while we sat there. She spoke up and asked if we had checked in at the desk-and she pointed to which one. I said no: I thought all e needed to do was check in at the computer. She told me that we in fact needed to also check in at the desk as well. Being as though we were waiting to check in for a surgery appointment, I don't know how much longer we would have sat there waiting... not knowing about the desk check in. She was the nurse who took my daughters vitals and she was very patient with my daughter who was not cooperating very well out of fear. She thought the nurse was going to do the surgery and that it was going to hurt. Wonderful nurse! There was a patient advocate, I believe her name was Sheila who approached us and handed us her business card. She seemed very genuine and very professional. She said if we needed anything, call her. She said she worked for the patients, to ensure everyone has a positive experience. The day after the surgery- I wanted to call Sheila to Brag about the intake nurse and the surgeon, and also to let her know about the confusion with the full check in process- how we just sat there, waiting. Since the computer said we had finished check in, we thought we would just sit and wait. I wanted to tell her that the computer should be more clear in directing parents to the next step in the check in process: approach the window and check in with receptionist. I called Sheila's office number. No answer. Left message to please call me and let my phone number. There was also a cell number listed. I called. No answer. I left a message with my phone number. Sheila never called me back. That doesn't feel good. What was the point? It was all just for show. Sheila is paid to pretend to care about patient experiences, and their plan all worked out great until I actually dialed the phone numbers and left messages to return my call. I am not so much disappointed as I am mad. Why even go through the whole song and dance of pretending to care Sheila and Driscoll hospital? I flat out proved you don't actually care.

Good hospital very professional staff. Even though they may or may NOT like me they have never deprived my children of care. A few misunderstandings but that is okay. They can only go by what sick bitch Johnson made up about me ‍.

We have had 2 visits to this hospital. First an ER visit - I can't say enough good things about the people who work there. We were treated with respect and kindness. For an emergency room timeframe we were in and out. We weren't there for a major injury, which makes it even better because we were low priority and were still treated with urgency. Our second visit was to Dr. Timperlake in Ortho. Another amazing department!! He and the staff were so wonderful! As a new patient visit we were out of there within an hour. That is including the x-ray time. (Who were also stupendous!) I am so glad we have such an amazing and caring place to bring our children!!

Considering the circumstances, this was a wonderful place. The NICU staff were the best! Thank you Julie. My grandson had open heart surgery here PICU staff was great. It was a very long day for us but with frequent updates our anxiety was eased a bit. God Bless Dr Morales ,the surgery team and all the techs and nurses that are caring for our precious Mason James.

yesterday 9/3/2024 at 2:45pmthis doctor here tried to chase me down when i was walking out of an appointment "medicaid" pays for!! there was no need to stalk me the way you did when i was simply walking away. i have filed a complaint with patient relations, medicaid, hippa and health and human services. to have me escorted out of the building when i was leaving freely on my own. the issues you were on were 2 months ago issues and you guys decided to address it under a follow up appointment??? then you invade my privacy while i am on the phone with my doctor by leaving my door open to the patients room! you invaded my privacy!! i tried to get out that office 3 different times and no one wanted to unlock the doors????? for being bsn/rn/cpn dr for psychiatry and ....how you harassed and taunted me to the door, you ought to be shame of yourself! i will never trust this office with my life, freedom everrrr again! and most definitely do not trust you with my daughters life either! her boss "anna rossetti" was just as bad, she didn't unlock the doors after seeing me struggling to open them several times. she threatened me with criminal trespassing, like i give a shit.

Beyond grateful to the NICU, neurology physicians and Dr Fergie (Infectious Disease). It's my opinion that the knowledge and expertise of the hospital staff minimized my daughter's illness and potentially saved her life. All while being kind and courteous. I will be forever grateful.

They take soooooo long to call u to the back !!! Have been sitting in the lobby for 3 hours and haven't been given a room . I came in before everyone else and the lobby was empty . And we are still here just waiting . My son is running a high fever he is tired and sleepy. He keeps begging me to take him home . I starting to consider just walking out . Only reason I haven't is because I'm afraid he has pneumonia .

Thank you Driscoll. I had an iv and surgery on my teeth. The Doctors and Nurses are very nice

Driscoll Children's Hospital is such a well run health facility. Every one of the physicians, nurses, admin, etc staff, that we encountered during my 19 year old daughter's unscheduled appendectomy were super kind, thorough and helpful. I'm so thankful that we chose them especially because we live out of town and she was on her own until we could get to her from a few hours away... everyone made her and us feel comfortable and very well taken care of during this emergency- thank you so much!!
