In patients' words

"I had a great experience at Bells OB unit to deliver my baby. All the nurses were nice, personable, patient and explained everything adequately. There was always help when I needed it."

Justine Hanson on LocalityBiz

"Once I hit Acute Care my opinion of the place kind of went sour. The first couple hours I was checked on frequently, but after that I felt like I was just an inconvenience to the staff."

Patient review on MedicalRecords.com

"After a 2 hour wait, was quickly seen and casually dismissed... released with a 'take two aspirin and don't call me in the morning' attitude."
