I went to lady minto around december 10th or so. I had fallen on my hand and was experiencing the worst pain i had ever experienced in my life. I spent like 10 hours the first night there in incredible pain experiencing shock symptoms from the amount of pain, they treated it like hyperbole or "just anxiety" and only gave me some tylenol or tramadol to no effect, thankfully one lady wasnt totally ignorant or stupid like the others and kindly helped me by wrapping it up (no one bothered to even stabilize the injury for me) and giving me some stronger painkillers to provide me some comfort which in that pain state meant everything as i was able to take a small nap and rest through the pain for a bit. After several hours they send me home claiming I had clear xrays but to come back tomorrow and just tell someone at the counter im here for a second xray the next day. I come back the next day literally feeling nauseous from the level of pain im having and inform them, they tell me thats not how it works, i cant just request the xray i was told to request, and had to sit in the lobby with all of 6 people over 14 hours moaning in pain. At one point i was asked what my pain level was at and i said a solid 9 or 10, they just said "okay." And walked away and that was it. I get manhandled again for xrays finally after an obscene amount of waiting for such an empty small hospital... to be told once more "there are no breaks". And this old man doctor there tells me "its just a sprain, it will heal in 4 to 6 weeks." I challenge that and told him I literally was a boxer and have broken my knuckles in the past and had dozens of sprains in fingers and this pain was infinitely more intense and i've never had a sprain that locks up my pinkie. He gives me a highschool lesson on finger anatomy, reinforces that its a sprain and leaves. 7 months later- 7 MONTHS. My hand still has a flexion lock, with Ulnar bowing, and still easily emits pain if i move it the wrong way or just tap it on something. Im not a medical practitioner and looking at my hand for 5 seconds and feeling the pain i did at the time was so clearly something much more severe than "just a sprain" The malpractice and mistreatment i endured there was unacceptable. *these pictures were taken July 9th showing structural deformity now permanent in my pinkie.*

Had lab work done and it was a time sensitive situation as I was dealing with a fertility clinic out in ottawa (but I was able to get certain testing done here in our home town). Long story short, they got my requisition and booked me 2 weeks out? Finally got in, and they mentioned my results would come in 1-2 days. Fast forward to 3 days later I called and emailed them because my results never came in. They said it was still pending. Waited a few more days and called and they mentioned the blood got lost. How is it pending and now lost? So I had to retake the blood of course and they said the next date is 2 weeks away (again). Needless to say, I traveled to timmins and the job got done, wish I went there originally, the hospital in cochrane is such a joke. Now whenever any family member needs medical attention or blood work, we go to SRF or Timmins.

Hi. Been dealing with a little bill I got in the mail. It's for 15.00. I have no idea what for. So I call the number on the bill. I've called 7 times in the last month and 1/2. The woman Sara still has not returned my calls and told me what bill is for. I can't pay a bill for something I don't know what is. And I've told her this.this could ruin my credit rating due to their ignorance Guess I need to go above her.

Worst hospital I have ever been to. Here for over 10 hours for a simple prescription renewel. There was only 6 people ahead of me. Absolutely ridiculas.

Go see a doctor sit there for 6 hours, and then they tell you. Hes going home because hes been working 16 hours and 3 emergencies come in. And they thought they can't do nothing for you with your Eye with a piece of steel in it. So now I have to go back home and come back tomorrow morning. Twice now in one week

Don't bother , doctors at this hospital are a joke, waiting 4 hours for someone that's been in a car accident is deplorable, go to emerge is even worse they won't do MRIs scans or anything

sent a collection officer after me for $150 when i never even received the help i went for. the doctors here aren't very helpful, either.

The only hospital I’ve ever been too that actually turns you away at emerge and tells you to come back the next day because there’s no doctor. I’ve given this hospital and the staff the benefit of the doubt WAY too many times and I simply cannot bite my tongue anymore. Absolutely unbelievable, pathetic and honestly embarrassing healthcare service. I’ve seen more people walk out of this hospital exhausted from 6+ hour waits than the amount of people actually go into emerge to be treated. It’s as if we’re expected to just have 24 hours of free time 7 days a week, no work or commitments. I’ve experienced healthcare in other towns and cities across Ontario, from SRF, Timmins, Ottawa, Toronto, Thunderbay etc and NEVER have I experienced anything like what’s going on in this town. The fact this has never been addressed regardless of complaints and ridiculous wait times should have a lot of people worried with the negligence shown. The staff bank on you being 100% complacent on waiting indefinitely considering the fact that no one makes formal complaints about the service. We need to hold our healthcare systems accountable, and we need to be honest and transparent about blatant issues with our healthcare systems complete disregard for these types of complaints.

We came at 2 pm and waited till 10:17 pm and we left without seeing any doctor. What kind of service is this? Do they have any consideration about patient or just like to watch people waiting in suffering by making all kinds of excuses? I don’t think anyone could wait for this long without seeing a doctor and going back home. This is really frustrating. Must improve. Also I felt discriminated as an Asian. They were speaking French between themselves in small chat while communicating with us. Very disappointed. Also they are very impatient while talking with us. Also they asked me about my religion and I don’t know how is it related with my health condition and they were very impatient while I asked them to explain. Everyone else got to see a doctor other than us, some even came hours after us, how is it possible that everyone is having more emergency other than us?

Everytime I come here it’s horrible and no matter when or what time of the day it is, it’s always a minimum 6 hour wait regardless of the hospital is full or empty with paciants
