John Hopkins Medicine Transformation and Planning

I go here anytime I need a hospital. The staff is always very caring and kind. The last visit I went there with a double kidney infection. So I was in a lot of pain. They took care of all my needs fast and efficiently. Before I was discharged Dr. Eric Howell gave me his personal number in case of any issues may arise. I did have a few. He answered immediately and very concerned. He acted immediately and fix my issues. He also kept checking up on me to see if everything is OK. He went over and beyond his duty. He is a very caring person full of helpful knowledge. I was truly amazed and appreciative.

This is a review fro a chronically ill patient that has been treated at this very good and caring facility since 2007. I have had a kidney transplant, retina surgeries, amputation, etc. But you know what is great? I am still here! I can drive my car, travel, and care for myself with many thanks to the caring and capable team at Bayview Hospital. Many of these 'complaint's' are frivolous and some specious. You can complain about costs but not if you don't get insurance because you would rather leas that expensive car. Don't go the ER for issues that a local DOC or Urgent Care could deal with. They triage/prioritize at the ER. If you don't care for the phlebotomist well then ask for a different one. You are the consumer and you have the right. In a faculty this large a few personnel are not their best. Deal with it.

Very professional and efficient. As soon as you enter you log into a computer and they call your name when it's your turn. The nurses and doctors are polite and very knowledgeable.

Still alive to post. Chest pains and left arm numb. Arrived 2:30 pm.. Staff nice however ER totally disfunctional. After 7 1/2 hours waiting on blood test results I'm guessing. No other communication from anyone. Totally unacceptable. Gave up after 8 hrs. Hope to find the next place tomorrow.

My mother was transferred to this hospital for swelling of the feet. Prior to her being transferred she was getting better. After few days at this hospital everything went down hill as a result she died. Doctors kept on pressuring me to take her off the vent when they were the ones who placed her on it. I thought this hospital was one of the top hospital but it's not. This happened few months ago they are the causes am suffering till today. The only person I had is now gone.
