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.

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.

My father is hospitalized at the moment. The 2nd time. He was discharged into transitional care while ill. A few days later he had to be admitted again in an emergency. He almost died. Two days after the critical condition, the discharge was already being discussed. What should we do?

Orthopedic doctor (Dr. M. Ullrich) and nursing staff very good during the day. The care at night from August 5th to 7th, 2022 is more than bad. "---- we don't have time now...." Also twice forgot to serve dinner. The milk came in the morning, the coffee was forgotten etc.

Humiliating experience for me as a companion. I was allowed to help calm down and give medication, but I was left absolutely cold for questions. This after years in which I save the public sector large costs through care at home.

I have never eaten so poorly in a hospital! Loveless preparation and presentation.Tasteless, monotonous and bland. No idea of condiments (eg with herbs). You will never forget such a stay .......

I was examined as an emergency patient after an accident. Discharged after about 3.30 hours. Called up again the next day. 5 vertebral fractures missed. I stayed in the hospital for 2 days to be monitored. Apart from vital signs, BE, pain medication and a short EKG, nothing happened. Nursing is too comput

The emergency is very good. But the scheme for the follow-up treatment after the op.,a forearm fracture, seems doubtful to me. The elastic fabric splint with a 2 cm wide aluminum rod gave no support and the pain was insane. It must have been invented by a sadistic bargain hunter. 

About the surgery:
starstarstarstarstar
Technically correct, miserable result, in week 7 the CT showed no signs of healing of the fracture, without anyone being to blame. Externally I got a plaster cast at week 7. pain is reduced since then.

Very unfriendly nursing staff and doctors. You have to beg to be examined more closely. As soon as you enter, you can feel the tension between the doctors and nursing staff. Lots of ego and no humanity.

My experience in this hospital is terrible. My complaints were never taken seriously & the nursing staff is very naughty & biased. The Waidspital should just close, so they would do us all a favor.

Our father (86) had abdominal pain and severe diarrhea for several days. only blood tests were done. No x-ray or ultrasound! He was dismissed after a few hours. The GP found the cause and successfully treated the bowel inflammation with antibiotics.

Competence is a foreign word. The Intern wanted to get her watch to measure my pulse. I pointed out that I'm on the monitor and she could read my heart rate there. Had to tell her which curve displays the heart rate. Embarrassing!
