St Bernardine Medical Center: "If you want your loved one to live or have a chance at survival don't go here. If you are someone Hispanic origin they will let you die. They won't bother. They put excuse to get an interpreter and won't do their rounds. They will not listen to the family members and say I don't speak Spanish and leave. The nurse don't even know what to do when a patient codes. Their is no need for a person to have to start Cpr when the nurse is useless and freeze up on what to do. When they fail to give medical and cause a wrongful dead and negligence. This hospital has no many people that have died all because of uneducated, uncaring doctors/nurse. So many HIPPA violations. This hospital need to be close down and put under investigation.

St Bernardine Medical Center: "I had quadruple bypass in December 2019 and am doing very well as of date.
The staff & Doctors were excellent.
I recently requested my medical records and received them as promised in the mail in a week. I would highly recommend any treatment as the service is great.
Thanks for my heart still beating.

St Bernardine Medical Center: "Staff ignores patients. Watched a nurse play on her phone. Sitting around and talking about Valentine's day gossiping. Doesn't look good to patients who are sitting in pain, ill and want to lay down. And the gate in the main waiting room keeps banging which is loud, unexpected and startling.
THIS IS NOT DIGNITY HEALTH. The ER IS FILTHY. HATED USING THE BATHROOM. NO COMFORT HERE AT DIGNITY HEALTH. NOT HAPPY." - Phyllis
