I would NEVER recommend this hospital. Their staff 9/10 is HORRIBLE. I only go because it's the…read moreonly option, locally. If you have chronic illness(es) they do not like to listen to you and treat you fairly; they do not move urgently, and will chalk everything up to anxiety, and/or your chronic illness. As if they know what it's like. They talk bad about patients and make a mockery of them-- within ear shot of them. And nothing is done about it. So many different doctors rotate through the E.R. and most of them are arrogant, and think they know-it-all. When, in fact, patients know their body best and when something is wrong or off. Also, make sure you review your chart and notes for accuracy-- they get stuff wrong all the time! The doctors straight up lie. I've caught things that I did not say, or do. ERRORS such as miscarriage, wrong meds, incomplete history, etc. THIS IS NOT OKAY! I'm speaking from experience, on more than one occasion; it's happened to my family also. We've lost people because of their negligence. This hospital is failing people miserably, and really needs new, knowledgeable, caring, compassionate staff who actually like their job. And not in it for the money. We're not just numbers. I truly hope there is another hospital for Port Clinton residents to go to in the near future!

On April 27th, we pulled into the Urgent Care portion of Magruder Hospital. My husband was driving…read moreand when we stopped, he was having an issue in the car. I ran into the Urgent Care and the Urgent Care doctor came running out to the car with me to administer CPR while my husband was still in the driver's seat. My husband was then extracted from the vehicle and transported into Magruder Hospital where they continued to work on him. The Urgent Care Doctor stayed with my husband continuing CPR and going back and forth to the Urgent Care and Hospital tending to all patients. My husband was then life flighted to another hospital where the doctors praised Magruder Hospital for their care as the results were a miracle to even have my husband alive today. This was all because the Doctor believed it was urgent and due to the immediate care my husband received, he has not only survived, but survived a tragic situation. A day later I received two phone calls from the doctor wanting to know how my husband was doing and I praised him as my husband would not be here today or be in the condition he is had the response not been what it was. I understand Magruder Hospital is not a trauma center, however if I had to get my husband to another hospital 30 miles from our home, he would not be here today. Magruder was excellent in recognizing what were our needs and analyzed what trauma center was the best stop to continue the treatment necessary for a better outcome. Now that I have raved about the doctor, I was also impressed with the complete staff for their compassion, concern and kindness starting with the registration, nurses, special techs, and all involved in our traumatic experience comforting me while they all were focused and working on my husband. Anyone can speak differently about any hospital but today I will forever believe that Magruder Hospital and the Urgent Care Center all have the heart and sincere concern for the best possible outcome for patients. Thank you for being in our backyard to understand that minutes do count.
