Overall Review of Grant Memorial Hospital
common13 reviews mention this
Staff kindness comes through
Residents and patients frequently describe staff who are friendly, caring, and helpful.
A large share of reviews praise the people working at the hospital, describing excellent care, good bedside manners, and staff who were welcoming and responsive. Some mentions are specific to fast attention in urgent moments, while others focus on emotional support during difficult experiences. Even when reviews include criticism elsewhere, several still single out individual doctors or staff members for listening and treating patients well.
common8 reviews mention this
Transfers and referrals are common
Many reviewers report being sent to another facility for additional evaluation or treatment.
Several reviews say their care ended with a transfer or being directed to another place, whether for follow-up imaging, specialized treatment, or worsening symptoms. Some reviewers describe starting care locally and then moving on to other hospitals, while others describe being told to go somewhere else during the visit. A few reviews also frame this as part of the problem when they felt answers or appropriate treatment should have happened sooner.
caveat3 reviews mention this
Some visits feel slow
A recurring complaint is long waits during ER visits.
A few reviews describe extended time in the ER, including waiting for results and waiting to be seen. Others say the hospital was slow in assessing what was going on or in getting to a workable diagnosis. These experiences stand out less for how the care turned out and more for how long patients felt they had to wait.
common2 reviews mention this
Cleanliness is mentioned sparingly
A couple of reviews mention the facility felt clean.
Only a small number of reviews explicitly comment on cleanliness, with at least one describing the hospital as clean during an ER visit. Another notes the care environment as very clean. These mentions are positive but limited compared with the volume of broader feedback.
caveat3 reviews mention this
Maternity experiences vary widely
Maternity and labor reviews are mixed, with both strong praise and serious criticism.
One review describes maternity care positively, including praise for nurses and the maternity area. Other maternity-related reviews include serious concerns about how care decisions were handled and about the attitude of labor-and-delivery staff. Taken together, the reviews suggest outcomes can differ greatly from one patient experience to the next.
