Ratings from patients / visitors about the Spital Herisau:

Important note: We can check patient feedbacks only superficial. They might be not objective.
I am concious of that and wish to read the patients ratings.

important information:

We review submitted patient reviews for compliance with our guidelines. The criteria are authenticity, appropriateness and compliance with our privacy policy. Assessments with the label «verified rating» have been confirmed by the patient with a mobile number. This gives you greater trustworthiness.

We do not offset patient ratings entered online with other quality indicators. The patient feedback therefore does not influence the scores or the ranking of the hospitals / clinics on our leaderboards. We present the feedback, which does not violate our guidelines, as we have received it. We kindly ask you to carefully consider to what extent these ratings are important for your choice of hospital.

Very long waiting times, the doctors and staff complained the whole time that there weren't enough staff.

In November 2017, I was in hospital for an outpatient colonoscopy. Very warmhearted care, my concerns were taken seriously, uncomplicated interaction. If only doctor visits would always be like that ;-)
