I am fed up with the services at the Valley Regional. I arrived early for my appointment. There was not one person there to advise to wear a mask, there was no one on the desk for information, or any security at all. I waited half an hour to go through registration leaving me 15 minutes late for my mammogram. When I arrived for my appointment, I was advised by the staff person that because I was late I would have to wait for another person who was waiting for a procedure that would take an hour (this person was scheduled for 9:00 and the time was 8:45). Even after I explained to her that I was on time for my appointment, she negated my validity by stating that she couldn't give me any approximate length of time I would have to wait. And that "it is up to you if you want to wait or not"! I have always supported the hospital and its staff. I am fed up with the crappy service, and the crappy attitudes of the staff at the Valley Regional. RESPECT GOES BOTH WAYS!!!!!!!

This hospital sucks, my wife had a miscarriage while I was at work and she was treated by an old white doctor who just left her in a chair sitting in a pool of her blood and bits of our baby. She’s currently dealing with panic attacks and is in the ER right now and it’s the same geriatric doctor seeing her, he just said something along the lines of âit’s all in your head, and I you’ll need to see a councillor, if that doesn’t work I’ll give you medication thenâ. What a total crock, I’ve never heard of anyone needing to see a councillor before getting anxiety medication, Nova Scotia needs to shape up.

I have been to the emergency at the Valley Regional Hospital several times.
I have always been treated with compassion and caring.
Yes, I have to wait a long time to be treated. These Doctors, nurses, and lab technicians are great at their jobs. They are definitely overworked.
If you want satisfaction, than you have to wait. You are not the only one here.
Most of the staff work well beyond their shift.
I, for one applaud you for your dedication.

Operation of a spiral fracture on my femur (thigh) well done. Thanks for that!
The postoperative treatment an the ward was no good though. Especially insufficient pain treatment. Iâm feeling sorry for every patient with acute pain after injury laying on this ward. When i was screeming of pain I was told to be quiet and they shut the door.
I went home with no letter of release, x-Rays nor hardly any Information about the procedure that was done which made it hard to communication with my Insurance back in Europe.

I was taken to Kentville ER. Via ambulance on February 12th, 2022.
I was attended to by Dr. Lee who was thoughtful, kind, very thorough.
The nurses in ER we’re all very attentive and took good are of me through the night.
Thank you all!
