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.

If you suspect vaccination damage (C-19) and say so, you cannot expect “real” treatment at the Inselspital. On the contrary, there are 1000 excuses for everything. Waiting periods of up to 4 months.

My wife was being treated there and when she was discharged she was still dependent on antibiotic infusions... ordering these antibiotics takes about 8 days, but she was only given 2 doses... how is that supposed to work?

the 3 days I spent there from Jan 8th to 10th 0115 were the worst of my whole life! The diva in my room controlled all the staff so that I had to fight for my breast care during my radiation. It can't get any worse

Appointment in the morning at 8:00 a.m It's already 11:00 am and we're still waiting. Locked in the room without anything to drink. Very unfriendly staff! super bad mood! Emergency room is dirty! Covered in breadcrumbs and a diaper pad!

Understaffed. Child had to wait 10 minutes for the nurse to go to the toilet and pooped in bed. Mother and child were left alone in the toilet despite bleeding and diarrhea. Way to bed alone dripping blood and holding IV unaided. Gas after foreskin too hard.

From the emergency room to discharge, I was treated very lovingly, competently and calmly. In the old building of the eye clinic I was looked after very nicely by everyone and really by all nurses and other staff. I wish everyone a lot of joy in their valuable job!

Unnecessary long waiting times for medical examinations, or physicians are otherwise engaged and do not show up at all. Too many drugs after surgery, some of which are even unnecessary. Unfortunately you have to go back there again as you dont have the choice

Poorly organized and bad customer service! Even though my elderly dad had a scheduled appointment, he waited 3 hours for his consultation with the doctor! That’s insane! Same with mom, she waited 90 min in the waiting room to be seen during her pre-scheduled appointment! NOT patient friendly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Interdisciplinary cooperation does not work at all. Stationary in neurology, rheumatologist was supposed to come, but refused the consultation. Left the hospital after 10 days with 5 outpatient appointments (examinations) which were previously planned as an inpatient.

I came here because of a bad eye. After 4 hours in the waiting area, I was told that my inflammation levels were not increased. After another hour I am now supposed to wait to get something for the infection, although there is no sign of inflammation detectable in the blood. doctor very unsympathetic
