Patients Testimonials

I love this hospital. To my fellow deaf community, they’re very good at gesture, write notes and have a interpreter on a video call. The staffs, nurses are the best! I love how they’re willing to work with deaf people!!

I was amazed how rapid my visit was and how I was treated with the up most concern and respect by all the staff , from beginning to the end of my visit. There was an extreme and noticeable difference in the care of the patients overall. Keep up the good work and thank you to all the essential workers….

Eternally grateful for the service they provided me, they are very attentive specialists. The truth is that they support you in those difficult moments that life gives us. God bless all those who helped me and contributed to my recovery.

Jeison

Had been admitted to this hospital 3x already for surgery. And all I can say is positive, from the security guards, admitting department, nurses and doctors. They are all kind, professional, and have a positive attitude towards patient. You won’t get intimidated asking them questions. Special mention to Ms. Rosalie and Ms. Rhea (the best nurses ever). And, of course, to my Doctor, Dr. Alemi Farzad, the best surgeon.
