This hospital killed my father. He died from infection of a bed sore from their ineptitude. I caught a nurse about to overdose one of the medications. He pleaded never to go back to 1C or they would kill him. We tried to transfer him out but there was no room. They put him back in 1c and he died in under a week. I have so many horror stories from this hell hole. I lost my unborn baby and another hospital said they probably could have saved my pregnancy. I've told my family that unless I am dying and the ambulance won't take me somewhere else, to never take me there. This is the worst hospital in existence.

I was a patient in the Markham Stoufffville Hospital from January 2nd - 10th 2020. My wife and I found Dr. Andrew Patterson to be very unprofessional, abusive, very argumentative and aggressive about everything. He does not like questions. I was also told by one of the unit nurses one night that I was not allowed to have a bowel movement at night only in the day time. These issues were reported the next morning to the unit Manager. After speaking friends that have had patients in this unit we were surprise to all the negatives. This behaviour is unacceptable at many levels. He should not be a doctor because of his abusive mannerisms and unprofessionalism. He is very unhappy person and a male chauvinist. He works under the umbrella for Markham Stouffville Hospital as Chief of the Palliative unit. He needs to learn how to fellow there guidelines, the Ministry of Health. He Should not take his anger out on patients and there families while they are dealing with significant stress already

Went into emergency ward, confused and not speaking. Was asked to go into washroom for urine test with NO help, fell, hit my shoulder and back of head on cement floor. Had to stay there for 5 weeks and then to Rehab hospital on University where I stayed for 5 weeks also. Was a big waste of time all around and found out down the line, they put I had a stroke - what? - I did not have a stroke, My license got immediately taken away and took 1 1/2 years to get back. In rehab did useless tests and excercise that did nothing for me. Markham Stoufville put down stroke to cover their butt! and put my through l0 wekks of hospitals and 1 1/2 years of rehab for nothing. They don't care to assist people for washroom duties, or anything else, nurses just don't care anymore.
