Jupiter Medical Center

This is the worst hospital on the planet to have your baby at! All avenues lead to disaster! Do not go there unless u want to be treated worse then a prisoner in a prison cell. The doctors are rude and could care less about there patients much less any birth plan or wish list you may have. The nurses are completely incompetent and set you up for c-​sections when they don’t feel like doing there jobs that day. They take your babies away from you and do not support breastfeeding at all. As a doula I will not even take clients that wish to deliver at this hospital any longer, that’s how bad it is. I wouldn’t take my dog there to have puppies!

This is the worst hospital on the entire planet.
My wife went in for abdominal pain. The staff complains out loud about other patients.
The doctors and nursing station staff laughs about patients.
The rooms are disgusting.
The staff is uncaring and doesn’t inform the patient but makes them scared and tells them what to do.
The nurses are authoritative. We had «Ashley“on floor 5 today. She taunted my wife until my wife screamed for her to get out of the room.
In the hall she and the other staff to include the doctor were laughing.
No one would give my wife clear information about her condition but demanded she stayed.
We call the hospital advocate. She was hostile too.
This is a corporate culture. We then tried calling the CEO because we were not receiving any information.
We talked with the administrative assistant. She seemed to be nice and told us she would get back to us.
Understood our story and was horrified by the way in which the staff behaved.
We have yet to receive a call.
We are now going to Good Samaritan in which they have heard the same horror stories about Jupiter ER and Hospital.
The rooms are scummy and dirty. They’re not cleaned properly.
It was the scariest experience we ever had.
The staff doesn’t care about patient rights. They are abusive toward their patients.
Do NOT go to this hospital, EVER!

Today is checkout day. I cannot say enough nice things! From the care to the staff to the facilities and the volunteers it has been a great experience all the way! How many hospitals can you say that about?
Thank you everyone for such good care!

Truly the best! Excellent ER staff and doctors! Highly recommend! State of the art all the way. The nurses and doctors are so kind and caring. If you need to be seen in an emergency, this is where you want to be.

I brought my father in there today. They took him back right away; but, it took them an hour to start appropriate treatment and it took over 4 hours to see a doctor and over 8 hours to get a bed on the floor. Don’t misunderstand, he saw plenty of PA’s, nurses and tech’s in the meantime. I have to imagine that they are doing the very best with what they have to work with. They did get exceptionally busy while we were there and I also have to imagine that there were patients in more distress than my dad. I was impressed with Dr. Shah. I would go to this hospital again; but, I’d also be prepared to wait. It’s a busy place!

My dad was taken to Jupiter medical center on Thursday night after falling outside and finally being found by the police using the GPS on his phone. Admitting him thru the ER took about 5 hours till he was settled in a room. He was told he probably had a heart attack by the ER doc. He did not and they gave him every test available to rule this out.
It took till Friday night to get the bed rest order lifted. The nurses can not do one thing without a doctors order. So we waited!
By the way, the nurses and the whole nursing team assigned to my Dad were really awesome. They are caring and kind.
The way things happen is slow and frustrating at best. The doctors could care less if you are waiting all day and night for them to see the patient. There is a lack of communication and eventually they do show up. If you don’t have the HIPA number they give you upon admission don’t expect to receive any information over the phone! Thanks to the attorneys out there for making this a nightmare.
My Dad simply fell and he is old, but they kept him in the hospital until I pushed for him to go to a rehab facility. Who knows how long they may have kept him there! He has great insurance. Let’s just say the experience there was a mixed bag. The biggest problem was the lack of communication between the staff in the hospital and the doctors who come and go. When I asked the doc taking care of my Dad why he didn’t release him earlier in the day he said «I see the sickest patients first and your Dad isn’t that sick.» So he was discharged at 4pm after waiting all day long and he was not transferred to the Rehab facility till 8:30 pm!
You need a lot of patience to deal with the hospital. Everything takes forever and requires a process. Glad he is out of there! Hope he never needs to go back.

I can’t believe how amazing and caring this place in. The doctors saw us within 5 minutes! The check in lady hadn’t even come back yet before were done. Wow. What a great experience!

My dad has surgery in Thursday morning and was out on Saturday evening. Ok, where do I start… this hospital is very old. The bathrooms were DISGUSTING for it to be a hospital. Well. honestly I have only been in a hospital at least 5 times in my life but what I can remember is a nasty bathroom and this was one of them. Dad started surgery at 7am. By the time we arrived, he was already getting prepped for surgery. We went in the prepping area and made a bunch of noise laughing, talking and sharing old stories amongst the family members. There were7 of us in a small area. The first nurse was really nice. She offered us coffee and refreshments while we waited for Dad to undergo his surgery.
Once they wheeled him off, we were directed to wait in the Family Waiting Area to watch TV. There were refreshments in the waiting area — bananas, apples, protein bars, coffee, water, etc. And there was Debbie. I think she’s a volunteer. Not a pleasant lady at ALL. For someone to be working in a sensitive area of the hospital you would think that their tone would be humbling and soft spoken. Hers was not. She was very direct and forward «Have a seat right there.» Is what she told the waiting families to do. I thought it was just «us» but I was wrong. I guess at one point we got a little too loud for her and she asked «Would you all like to go to the cafeteria?» It almost wasn’t a question. It was more of a demand. We said no. We weren’t going to weren’t hungry and we definitely weren’t going to eat there. She slammed her highlighter down on her keyboard. I knew she was pissed. Who cares. We’ll wait right here @*(#%&!!
After I saw the disgust on her face, I started to stare at her with the intention to make her ass uncomfortable and to let her know that I know that she was being rude to us because we wouldn’t leave.
Dr. Caruso [I believe that was his name] took very good care of my father. He was young and cute ;) We asked him if we could see the pictures of the organ that was removed and he was a little taken back by that, as if he was insulted. Hey, we have the right to ask. Besides, this was our olé man’s first surgery of that magnitude so we wanted to see it. And on top of that we were a little skeptical because they sent my father through hoops to get a second opinion. I still have my reservations about that but what’s done is done.
Overall, I wouldn’t recommend this place to a hog.

I was a skeptic, not because of anything I had heard or seen, but living in Maryland we have access to the best health care in possibly the world. Dad went in on a Monday for a hip replacement and was home and walking with a came home in 4 days. Granted the Dr. get much of the kudos but I was totally impressed with everyone we came in contact. Clean, organized and great friendly people.

Don’t really like hospitals but my niece was born here a couple of months ago. I enjoyed the baby more in this hospital than any other I’ve been to. The maternity dept is actually in each parents room so you can start spoiling the baby as soon as it’s born.
