St. Joseph's Health Centre

I received diagnostic MRI imaging at St. Joes. Every staff I interacted with was professional, friendly and extremely helpful. The process was efficient despite me having some challenges staying still in the MRI for one of my scans. Given how overburdened our healthcare system is, I think its sometimes easy to forget how hard every member of these teams work to help us (the patient) put the pieces of the puzzle together in our health journey. I wanted to share my gratitude. Thank you very much to the MRI booking team (especially Sophia) including the on-site registration team and the technologists who were so kind and helpful. I believe the technologist I had is named Peter and there was two other lovely team members I interacted with (thank you!).

I waited more than an hour to simply enter the emergency room and more than hours waiting for the doctor to see me to pass exams I emphasize that the nurses in the emergency room were excellent and the doctor was attentive and had the sensitivity to talk with me in private to give my diagnosis and he avoided talking in front of other patients (as other doctors were doing!) but I see that the hospital has a shortage of health professionals. Maybe if IRCC facilitated we would have more doctors and nurses attending. It didn't end there.. my hospital bill also came with double amount!! And I need come back to office hospital for fix it.

Have visited twice in the last week and was surprised at the speed and care given. Went to triage and was sent to Yellow Zone both times (this may have impacted visit) and everyone along the way was helpful, kind, and caring. Depending on time of day you go in will impact the time spent in these zones. Thankfully my emergencies happened very early in the morning so I was able to be seen within a few hoursI didnt have a life risking emergency. Due to restraints regarding public healthcare crisis (Thanks Doug Ford) things werent perfect for all patients but overall my time here was comfortable and easy. Spoke with several doctors and nurses who were all incredible but wanted to give a shout-out to one of the mental health crisis workers. Im sorry I forgot her name but she was helpful in showing me different avenues for my health plan and what steps I could take to better my long term care as an outpatient.
