Families should exercise extreme caution, as many reviewers report severe issues with medical neglect, long wait times in the ER, and poor hygiene, including reports of pests and unsanitary bedding. While some patients praise specific surgeons and nurses for being compassionate and professional, these positive experiences are heavily outweighed by frequent reports of inadequate monitoring and unprofessional communication.

Key Review Excerpts

The crew that provided my surgery are awesome. I woke up feel better after my treatment. Although I walked out due to other staff with poor care for their patients, I appreciate the doctors who provided great care when I was stay here.

Surgery patient · 2025★★★★

As he was trying to get his items together, a roach ran across the pillow! I hope they don’t expect payment!! Disgusting.

Long-term resident's family · 2026☆☆☆☆

I was in the emergency room twice on 01/01/26 & once 01/02/26 not knowing what was wrong with me. I had gotten the luck to get Dr Bei and the whole crew of lady nurses on staff that night. EVERYBODY was AWESOME!!
