Overall Review of Mayo Clinic Health System - Lake City
caveat2 reviews mention this
Respiratory staffing drew complaints
Some residents say respiratory therapist staffing was reduced at night.
A couple of reviews criticize a decision to get rid of on-site respiratory therapist coverage at night and describe it as a safety concern. One reviewer also directly says the facility fired respiratory therapists, framing it as a reason they would not return to the hospital.

Care teams are seen as caring
Many reviewers describe staff as kind and compassionate during care.
Multiple reviews praise the staffâs compassion and bedside manner, including experiences during serious or end-of-life moments. Residents and families also mention specific team membersâlike therapists and registration/admin staffâas reassuring, gentle, and patient with concerns. A smaller set of reviews contrast that by saying they did not feel kindness or compassion from the care center when calls werenât answered.

Wait times are often reported as short
Several reviews say wait times are typically brief.
Some reviewers report minimal wait for care or quick turnaround once theyâre seen. One review notes they sometimes wait in line at the clinic but says the ER process is fast for getting in and out. Another mentions providers are seldom late by more than a few minutes, which supports the overall impression of time being managed well.
