Grady Memorial Hospital

This place is awful. The staff was dismissive, incompetent, rude and slow. It is hard to imagine a worse experience. Simply put, if you have any other choice, go there first.

I don’t think I have enough great things to say about the Maternity ward here at Grady Memorial.
My sister delivered on October 22, 2013. We are so pleased with the services she received from her physician and the nursing staff. They were fantastic and gave my sister and her husband a very positive birthing experience.
My only complaints are, 1). The cafeteria closes for the day at 1:45 PM. This was not OK with us, and 2). I rarely saw the nursing staff wash their hands. Hand sanitizers are just fine and dandy, but it really impresses me when people wash their hands.

I’m a patient of The Women’s Health Clinic inside Grady Memorial Hospital. I was just seen yesterday Nov.12^th, 2012 and let’s just say that was my worse experience ever being seen by a doctor that I’ve never had, never met, or have never seen inside the clinic. I’m 29 weeks pregnant and when she walked into my room for my appointment she approached me in an uncomfortable way and I didn’t like it one bit.
I have had to travel to Grady Memorial Hospital and Dublin Methodist to get a second opinion on my migraines that I’ve been having and because Grady was the first place I went to to get them checked out I wanted the second opinion from Dublin Methodist. She asked me about those and got onto me about the doctors giving me the medication that they prescribed. Well first off I’m not the doctor and second why can’t she take it up with those doctors before getting rude with me when I have no control over what they give me. I haven’t taken any of the medication until I see my actual regular doctor in there. Also yes I’ll be honest I have gained weight in the past two weeks from my last appointment and the way she approached me about that was very rude and bad bed side manners. She basically yelled at me about it. I don’t take too well with people like that because first off I’m 29 weeks pregnant almost about to have my baby soon and she doesn’t think I will gain weight when only the baby is getting bigger. I mean come on she even told me it’s not healthy for the baby when he’s getting big I can’t help that the baby is growing so big and healthy cause she checked the heartbeat of the baby and was perfectly normal and healthy.
Due to her not having bed side manners, I don’t want her to be my doctor when I go in on Nov. 28^th. I’m going to request that I am seen by my doctor and if I can’t then they’ll just have to reschedule me for another time. I have the right to choose.
I just don’t want someone else to have to go through what I went through that was horrible for me and didn’t help my self esteem what so ever.

This hospital has a vast amount of lawsuits against it for its endless act of malpractice. In fact I went to Grady in December of 2007 after falling in my shower and waited for what seemed like forever to get a cat scan. After looking over my cat scan I was told everything was okay and that my head would just hurt for a few days and I would have headaches.
The next morning Grady was bombing my phone and telling me I needed to go back to the hospital immediately and that they had found an abnormality in my cat scan. Why did they not see this the previous night before sending me home? I easily could have died in my sleep because my brain had hemorrhaged in my left frontal lobe. I ended up having to be life flighted to Riverside Hospital where they took care of me as people in the medical field should.
If I had faced any life threatening side effects I would have gladly sued Grady but I probably would be dead before it was handled anyways. Steer clear from this place if you cherish your life.

Good for having healthy babies close to home, but be mindful the NICU is only available via childrens hospital squad.
Have had awful waiting period trying to get into ER at times, and other times have gotten right in, so the ER can be a toss up.

Had to use the emergency room at Ohio Health’s Grady Hospital on a Friday afternoon. I had fallen and fractured my thumb. I was in and out in under 2 hours. They took me in immediately, no problems with my insurance from Virginia, bedside registration, something for the pain, a tv and very friendly staff.
That was a great experience! Really, pain meds or not, they treated me wonderfully, took time to listen to problem, gave me a cd of my xray to take to my doctor at home, everything.
I can’t say enough about how great this place was. My exeriences with the emergency room and urgent care in Warrenton, Va (see other review) leave a lot to be desired, not so with Ohio Health! They are GREAT!
