Patients Testimonials

I recently had a procedure at St. Joseph. The nursing staff was very caring and attentive. The respiratory therapist asked about my preference for getting some medication before going in to calm my anxiety. I really felt that I was listened to. The surgical staff was very warm and welcoming upon arrival into the OR room. My favorite experience was the radiology staff that I saw at the end. Their positive attitudes and friendly discussions were a cherry on the top. The only reason I’d subtract a star is for the long registration time!

Erin Enright

The nursing and Therapy staff even the Dietary service was very kind and efficient on the 4th floor. I had excellent care when I had my babies here. Now my elderly mother is here. She had an internist pulmonologist and geriatric staff. Friendly nursing students too. As a nurse. I really appreciate that. Abi did an awesome job teaching. The glucose meter and Iv antibiotic infusion to a caring nursing student from a local college. The kind discharge planner worked well with our family Retirement home and medical staff in planning the discharge..😊

My daughter was seen for a sports injury. They immediately checked her in, ran x-rays, and released her. They addressed her injury and referred her for follow-up with the doctor.
