Helen Joseph Hospital - Emergency Department

Very quick, good experience, but as with all the doctors at HJ, even psychiatrists, nobody listens to how terrible you feel and now I might just kill myself. Tonight.

Everyone helpful and friendly from the security to the doctors. Assistance always been given.

Patients being treated in corridors, people laying on the floor. Dry blood on the floor that sits there for hours, lack of beds, very poor hospital

Staff are doing their best. They are being shouted at by irrate people but try very hard to explain. The emergency room is very busy at times and there is a lack of beds for serious patients. Waiting time is very long, sometimes overnight but people must realise the pressure due to CMAH being closed. Keep trying Helen Joseph.

Pathetic.
My dad is having his lung halfway under fluad and is waiting since 11 to see a doctor. Every one around him has been seen. Even another lady sitting in a wheelchair since 6 this morning not been seen by a doctor.

Just terrible

Efficient and dedicated staffs. Well equipped hospital. The devotion and commitment of the workers are quite commendable.

Staff was friendly and helpful with directions. The queues were very long sadly. Tests were quick and efficient though it took a while to get to the technicians and nurses doing tests. Doctor doing diagnoses was kind, respectful and thorough. She listened to me. There was only was a doctor who gave the impression she was in a rush and I was wasting her time. She was under pressure, I suppose (she was doing triage) but her bedside manner stank. But then, I needed her expertise, not her bedside manner. If it's your first time at public health hospital, don't forget to bring your ID, proof of income or lack thereof, and referral letter from you GP or from your local clinic. You need that to register for service.

First class medical attention but lengthy process. Admin prior to admittance is slow and you may have to wait for ages but once they get to you you can be assured of excellent medical attention

Very slow moving emergency staff. Most of them are are lazy and won't give you attention until you start hurling in pain.
