New London Hospital

I have been a patient at New London Hospital for 15 years. The quality and professionalism of all the staff from the doctors to the surgeons is just great. I cannot understand why anyone would give this hospital a negative review. Remember that even doctors are humans. Our daughter is a doctor at a highly prestigious hospital in CA. She was at my bedside during a surgery and she was very pleased with the care I was given.

I was driving my wife to Vermont and on the way back I started having chest pains. I recently had a major heart attack and didn't even know that New London hospital was there. I pulled off the side of the road and got to the hospital. I also have severe pancreatitis anyways, I was greeted with a smile and after being to follow me. I was rushed into a room. I didn't see the DR. For a little while ( she was the only one there so I understood) Rich my nurse was unbelievable and then when I finally saw the doctor ( Dr. Jonasson I believe) She was the best doctor I have ever had in my life. Doctors are great. Nurses are great. I live about 35 minutes. If it is not a life threatening emergency. I AM DRIVING TO THIS HOSPITAL WITHOUT A DOUBT.

If negative stars were possible, then that would be what I give this place. I went in with reoccurring on and off blindness, pulse hitting 190 when just sitting and weakness. I was admitted into the NH Hospital for Anxiety a few months before and a doctor at New London was married to my doctor in the NH Hospital. When I went in with those problems, the doctor flat out told my "My wife told me about you." No lie. I was furious. Confidentiality my a**. He sent me home saying it was just anxiety. A couple months later I was admitted into Dartmouth Hitchcock and was diagnosed with two rare heart conditions. If the idiot had done something about it in New London, I would be fine. If you get Doctor Kenneth Call in the ER, leave for your own good.

Reading some of the reviews, I guess there is just no pleasing some people! I had my left hip joint replaced a month ago and about to get my right hip joint replaced. I have to say that my treatment, care, handling and surgery at New London Hospital was nothing short of world class! Not bad for a small rural hospital in the heart of New Hampshire! Thumbs up to all the staff there - you are all doing an excellent job!

The WORST medical experience ever. DO NOT GO HERE!!! I was in a skiing accident where I was advised I had to go to the ER by the ski resort due to hitting my head and inability to bear weight on my leg. I'd had three prior reconstructive joint surgeries and this was the MOST pain I'd ever been in without pain meds. I went to this facility's ER where they only had one other patient. I advised I was in 8/10 pain. All the physician did was give me a referral to my primary care physician and take an x-ray. Given that I was unable to walk, I followed up with an orthopedist whose med student glanced at the x-ray and advised the ER had missed a fracture indicative of an ACL rupture. I requested a copy of my medical records from New London Hospital to learn that the ER physician had taken NONE of my symptoms seriously and had marked my pain 3/10, that I had a sprain, and I noticed that my x-ray had not been reviewed until day(s) after I left the facility without any follow up. Their radiologist indefinitely found a fracture, however, it was so obvious I even saw it when I reviewed it with my ortho. Again, DO NOT GO HERE.
