    When I was 14, I had visited the hospital for weeks because I had trouble breathing and walking. They brushed me off every single time and told me that they didn't know what was wrong but if they had to guess, it was probably asthma. I knew something was serious when I suddenly started coughing up blood I went back in a wheelchair my mom grabbed from inside 'cause I could no longer stand on my own. Everyone just looked at me as I waited hours crying out in pain just to be seen. When they finally called me in and did all the testing they needed, I waited until the next day to find out what was wrong with me. They told me "in two hours time, you would've been dead". I had blood clots in my lungs and legs, this is known as the "silent killer". They ended up sending me to a different hospital because they couldn't treat me there So much waiting had happened between Thanksgiving and New Years to figure out what was wrong with me. The doctors brushed me off every time I told them something was wrong and felt like I wasn't taken seriously. I would've been gone if they had waited an extra hour or two just to see me. I would've been dead in that waiting room Seriously, go to another hospital

    First symptom noted at the voluntary admission- "unredirectable" is that a word in English?

    I want to be very honest with this review of Loyola University Medical Center…read more We arrived on Easter Sunday night after being transferred from another hospital, and I was truly grateful we made it. The ICU staff on the 2nd floor were exceptional--kind, professional, and attentive. They consistently checked on us and treated both patients and family with care and respect during a very difficult time. However, after a few days, we were moved to the 3rd floor, and the experience changed significantly. During overnight hours--around 2 AM--the environment has been surprisingly loud. I heard staff using profanity, watching videos or news on their phones at high volume, and openly complaining about long shifts. I understand healthcare is demanding, but this is a hospital setting, and patients (and their families) can hear everything. My relative is here receiving end-of-life care, so I stay overnight. At one point, a nurse questioned my presence rather abruptly before knowing the situation. To her credit, she apologized once she understood, but in moments like these, a little more compassion upfront goes a long way. One of the nurse was rude and jist keep using profanity and stated this is who she is. Wow, Loyola use to have professional nursing staff, what happened? I also noticed interactions where staff spoke to patients in a very casual, sometimes inappropriate tone. Maybe I'm a bit old-fashioned, but professionalism matters--especially in a place where people are vulnerable, grieving, and trying to find peace. My takeaway: There is clearly a strong, compassionate team here--as seen in the ICU--but consistency matters. Professionalism, awareness, and respect should be maintained across all floors, especially during overnight hours. Hospitals should feel calm and supportive, not loud or chaotic. Patients and families deserve that--especially during life's most difficult moments. I will give a 4 star due to our first encounter here and the kindness nurses such as Nicole and Quand and Jordan. Very kind d and attentive. And I just heard 2 nurses use profanity to another nurse. I am sincerely flabbergasted that they speak like this so openly and there are patients present in their rooms. The level of unprofessionalism is amazing, and i am really saddened by this as this hospital was once top hospital. Being part of the joint commission will definitely reflect not only my review, but how I move forward. This is really upsetting me.

    Today we came to visit my husband who had surgery. My 14 yr old was with me. They told her she has…read moreto be 18 to visit. They could have told us that on the phone and saved us a 6 mile trip but it's loyola and they don't do anything to make your visit pleasant. They would not even let her sit in the lobby. We had to turn around and leave. I don't know why this hospital is so terrible, not family friendly, it's a shame. Terrible hospital. I need my ppo insurance again so I can attend Northwestern where they treat you like a valuable human.

    Came here with my husband and saw Dr. Vargas. She was super nice. He had a weird bump on his head…read more She correctly diagnosed it as a fatty cyst. She recommended we go to a nearby surgeon (Suburban Surgical Associates) and they removed it. I'm seeing the other reviews - the wait time was long. He had an appointment and there were only a few others in the waiting rooom. Perhaps they just need to figure out their scheduling and book more time per patient. However, I really liked her. Smart, professional and still very personable (you don't always find a good personality in a doctor). If she practiced somewhere else, I would love to see her as my primary doctor.

    I am very upset with Alivio medical center located at Berwyn Illinois. My mother took my 3 year old…read moreson as a walk in from 1:30-5pm. As they were waiting in the car my son needed to use the toilet and the young Hispanic man denied him access and told my mother he was not allowed to use the bathroom until he was being seen by a doctor because those were the rules (which was taking hours) Therefore, it caused him to hold his urine until he pissed on himself. She was able to rush him into McDonald's to use the bathroom there instead but it was already too late. He had to still wait hours to be seen with his entire clothes drenched in pee. This is unacceptable of them to deny bathroom service to their patients especially to children that young. Wish I could give zero stars!
