Saint Anthony Hospital

I was came last Tues the 22^nd with a friend that was having same day surgery. I had never heard of this hospital and when I read review on here and Google I was not impressed so going there the bar was set pretty low and my expectations were also very low.
However EVERYONE except Dr Dyer was truly amazing! Extremely kind and even with a heated conversation with Dr Dyer everyone else remained calm and performed perfectly!
It’s staff like Dr Dyer that have given this hospital a bad name and I gave this Dr a 1 star on her private practice while this hospital and its staff shouldn’t be healed accountable for one horrible person and if I could give 10 stars I would, that is how wonderful ambulatory services, the nurses, registration and the anesthesiology depart true were that day!

This Hospital Is The Worst Place To Give Birth. i Gave Birth In Sept And The Nurses Are Extremely Rude & Judgemental ! The Pediatrician Wouldn’t Even Want To Help Me Breastfeed. It Was Hard To get A Hold Of The Nurses When i Needed Help, It Would Take Them About An Hour To Get To My Room ! & They Accused Of The Father Of My Child In Stealing Pills In There. i Would Never Want To Go Back; Regret Giving Birth There; Highly Unprofessional; The Worst Doctors In The Emergency Room Also ! Highly Recommend For Everybody To Never Go There For Anything. They All Have Smart Mouths & Aren’t Even Nice To You. If i Remembered The Names Of Everybody i Would Filled A Complained Especially To The Medical Record People. Rude!

I had a wonderful experience in the surgery center at St. Anthony Hospital. Everyone was so organized when I walked in the door for my surgery and I didn’t have to wait at all. They were actually waiting for me, which is very rare! All the nurses and doctors who prepped me were super friendly and helped ease my nerves before my procedure. I really did feel like I received rock star treatment and was in and out pretty quickly.
This hospital is very very old, so don’t expect a 5 star facility when you walk in. Do I think the building could be a bit cleaner, yes. Did it feel unsanitary in the surgery center, no.
Overall, my experience was great! I know other people who have commented were in other parts of the hospital, so keep that in mind before passing judgement on the entire facility.

My son was sent to st Anthony’s behavior health center by Dr. Gordon for no reason my son is schizophrenic and depressed but he was stable and non violent. My son was already in an intermitiate care facility and already had 24 hour care so he did not need to be locked up and sedated 24 hours a day. I would try to call my son every day and would get a busy signal every time how is that possible. There is some kind of fraud going on at that
is unclear who is running that hospital and no way of getting a hold of any one. The number for psychiatry is not the psychiatry department. There is no way of contacting anyone in management department. Mr Guy Medaglia is on there web site as president and chief executive officer. Mr Medaglia doesn’t even have a legal residence in Illinois.

The only reason why I was in the hospital was Dr. Mitchell Goldflies –orthopedist surging. He was very highly recommended by my friend who once worked with him. This hospital is the worst hospital I had ever been , incompetent employees patient waiting rooms filled with patients. My app was at 9 am I had to wait 1; 30 minutes the Dr was very not professional as well as his its employees. x-​ray took one more hour to take my broken arm x-​ray I had to go down to the basement then beck up stairs next hour waiting only to hear the sarcasm and to play games guessing bone diseases And o boy he was so off .One will thought, the orthopedic surgeon specializes in bones and knows more about it than just a simple family doctor! So Dr. Goldflies and the intern began to guess what is the disease i have was one of them was: Pageant disease, osteogenesis imperfecta, next he goes to the computer and google search what do i have. Really ??? a specialist !!! Summarizing I have very bad memories of that visit, I saw this doctor first and the last time and would not recommend anyone

I had taken my daughter who was diagnosed at a Western suburban hospital with a broken upper arm to Saint Anthony Hospital after she continued to complain about the pain in her elbow. After a visit with Dr. Goldflies, it was determined that the suburban hospital had misdiagnosed her break which could have caused signficiant pain and permanent damage if it would have not been caught. The staff was a delight and did their best to calm my daughter’s anxiety. We continued her treatment at Saint Anthony’s rehab and follow-​up visits. Well worth the drive! I would recommend SAH services without hesitation!

Everyone from the moment i walked in to the front desk was very professional and polite. Great bedside manners from providers.

My mother in law has stayed here a few times when her diabetes and arthritis medications were interfering with each other. The doctors were helpful and told her what was going on, but she had a hard time explaining it again. Wish doctors were more accessible to talk to family.
