Perth & Smiths Falls District Hospital

I had a really good experience there. Barely any wait time, doctor was really good. Information package was helpful. The building is a little dated, but I'd rather great service like I had than shiny new lights and paint.

I spent 9 hours in Emerg for a possible broken wrist. Had x-rays done and told I could go home 10pm and they'd call me Sun or Mon with results. I called Mon to get a copy of my chart to take back to my home province PEI and was told they'd lost my x-rays.. called hospital again and they had finally found my x-rays but weren't read yet. I spent the afternoon In SmithFalls hospital going from health records to x-ray dept to the emergency room again. I left empty handed again.nOptions were ...a. sit in the emergency room again and wait my turn 9 more hrs ??? Wait and talk with a.nurse and see IF she could help me min of another hour?? OR go home and see if they call me OR WAIT 2 WEEKS to.use the online feature they have for getting your health information.nWhat an asinine hospital set up . No wonder people are dieing in our hospitals.nUpdate. Dec 18/24 still waiting for my phone call from Emerg and patient relations officer I left 2 phone messages to be returned in 1 business day NOT I finally went in to Brockville Emerg and in 9 hrs had copies of my 8 wrist / hand x-rays and an appointment to an orthopedic surgeon, for my hand injury . Thank you Brockville emergency for taking such caring and swift care of me.

Back again, and still the same problems persist. Going on almost 6 and a half hours of waiting to even speak with a doctor. Why is it this is so common now? Probably gonna be here another 2 hours atleast, quite sad. Do better.nnUPDATE:n9 HOURS NOW! Canada's health system is a joke.

Emergency department staff were very polite and professional. The doctors are extremely caring and knowledgeable.The MRI staff made me feel comfortable and explained all the steps involved.

My coworker went in and got told it would be an 8 hour wait and if she left after being triaged she’d be charged $800. So she’s expected to wait there with her 2 kids under the age of 10?
