Harper university hospital Review

The DMC sports medicine is very unprofessional donot return phone calls do not have a heart. I understand people are busy,but 3 weeks to call me not fair. Also I would rather be in a third world country. It's all about money,but they are in a great place Detroit.

Some doctors are good and nurses are good too but problem is they can let your love one die because of hospital policy. Sometime doctors specially surgeon unable to take right decision and let your love one die. It would be my last choice to visit when needed .

Fasted for 14 hours before a biopsy only to be told they were way behind schedule and I had to wait and it took an additional two and a half hours. Never again. When I was in for a long term stay at Karmanos, I also had to eat their food which was one of the worst for a cancer patient to eat: high refined carbs, over-cooked meat and canned vegetables

DMC's service has really taken a steep fall over the years. Took my pregnant family member to the ER here a few weeks ago, someone who doesn't speak English at all, and not once did they call for a translator to help her. I had to wait in the ER which is understandable for COVID reasons.

However they did not do any tests on her nor did they do a thorough assessment on her despite the OB-GYN's order. All they did was a visual and verbal examination and kept her there for over 3 hours for this. I had to be on the phone after they wouldn't get her a translator.

She was discharged without any advice and I had to ask the nurse questions that she was giving blunt answers to. I am a nursing student who has worked with the staff at DMC and other hospitals before, this is not how a service should be.

Not only that, no one would explain directions for my pregnant aunt to get back to the ER or Main Lobby, nor would anyone escort her there. DMC has patient transports, where were they in the middle of the day?? She was barely able to walk at the time too. I had to remember what the floors looked like and somehow guide my aunt over the phone to get her back to the main lobby from the top floors.

I ended up switching her to a Beaumont facility, sure it may be a little far from us but it's worth it. From the beginning they did everything they could to provide her the right and proper care that was overlooked at DMC.

My husband has stage 4 cancer. His doctor told him that she had sent the paperwork for him to be admitted. My husband was in pain, dehydrated, weak, nauseated. And his heart rate was high. The receptionist was very rude. We were the for over five hours and the only thing they did was check his vitals. We explained that he had to be admitted per his doctor Heath. My husband wasn t a priority and could no longer wait. So we left. He needed fluids and a IV. The worse experience ever. I wish we would have been directed to a hospital not in Detroit. And to top it off the doctor that spoke with my husband had a very poor delivery and wasn t concerned at all.

Don't take anyone you love and care about here. Told me they were too busy to adequately treat me and even suggested I go to another hospital. Never in my life have I had such poor care!

Worst than St. John main!
No privacy! They are treating people in the freaking hallways! Can you say OSHA?
First the receptionist was rude and nonchalant. She call a patient by the last name and the patient responded by saying her 1st and last name and the receptionist said " I guess" rudely. Then then treatments that are happening in the hallway was outright foul! Talking to patients in front of everyone that's in the hallways. NO PRIVACY! The info I received was heartbreaking but I couldn't respond because so many people was around that I didn't know! Worst hospital experience EVER!

I just had abdominal surgery. I only wish my doctor/surgeon hadn t talked me in to this hospital .My prep nurse was fantastic- the girl who put in my IV was awesome, the whole surgical team came to introduce themselves and take me up to surgery- they were all fun and heart warming. I was lucky enough to be assigned to a Nurse named Amber who won Nurse of the Year she was absolutely the best- after her shift it went downhill big time.
I was given a styrofoam cup of boiling broth, while heavily medicated- my fault for picking it up as it was so hot I dropped it, it fell all over my bed, and burnt my thighs- I rang for the nurse crying and got up from bed, ( difficult as I just had abdominal surgery) the nurse came and said you made a mess go throw cold water on your legs are you kidding me??? Nothing was done. He put new sheets on and left. I took photos of my thigh where it was blistered. The next day some random doctor checked on my recovery from surgery- I told her about my leg she said it should be fine I said it hurts!!! Nothing was ever done- no ointment, nothing.
The next shift I had a new set of nurses, they failed to give me my insulin, I asked twice, as my sugar was running high, each time they will be right back and show up and hour later forgetting the insulin. I was being discharged thankfully that day by the time I got home I could take care of my insulin myself.

Please don't ever ever ever go to this hospital! When you're trying to get info on your spouse and their belongings, you get the runaround. They are extremely rude!! They don't seem to know their protocol. They're very unorganized and seem to be pretty stupid. I wish I could give them 0 stars! They even gave the funeral home the runaround.

Worst hospital in America hands down. The younger nurses train on you. There disrespectful. They should shut down or be sued. There just as bad as the former president of DMC which is now the mayor of Detroit which is still horrible like Harper hospital er. Why I know, my mom was a diabetic and was informed she had cancer here and I been going there for 22 years and it only gets worst. Eff this hospital and I m not speaking on just the 5 wonderful people that are there. I hope you not going there with a gun shot wound they might let you die there and say you died before you made it. Someone make a change.
