The North Jersey Swallowing Center - St. Joseph's Regional Medical Center Reviews

The last time that we were here was in 2008 and this is the first time that we have been back since all of the renovations. Amazing!

God have mercy on anyone who has to come to this place. You wait for hours....

IF I CAN GIVE A ZERO STAR I WOULD ABSOLUTE LY THE WORST HOSPITAL IN NEWJERSEY. PEOPLE PLEASE DONT BRING YOUR LOVE ONES HERE.

It is where they give you the best attention kindness and courtesies

Great doctors .
Great nurse

Thanks for all you do to help stay alive.

I am infinitely grateful to staff at all levels of this hospital! They saved my child s life more than once. Each time they cared for my child as their own. Thanks to each of them!

this hospital is horrible nobody wants to do their job i have a hand fracture and they sent me to a dentist sorry but this is the most unorganized hospital ever i regret going.

Brought my mom to the ED who had confusion.
They placed her in a room on the FLOOR, freezing and gave her a gown. Had to find blankets. Hours went by, continuously asking when she will be seen by a nurse or a doctor. HOURS. Finally, after 3 hours went by, I got my mother back into her clothes. We started to leave. Then when the staff got wind we were leaving they started an argument on why we couldn t leave. It was ridiculous. Finally, she was seen by a Dr. her blood pressure was through the roof. Unbelievable. I have no more faith and trust in the ED Dept at St Joes Paterson, NJ. Not going back.

If 0 stars was a option that would be it. I wouldn't recommend this hospital to anyone! I had a surgery there on June 21st 2018 started out laproscopic then turned into open surgery with small intestine gone threw by hand. Exactly a week later I was back there with high fever 103.5 swollen, red, and extremly painful where my incision was. I was sepsis and tachycardic. I sat in the waiting room for almost 2 hours in that condition. The drs didn't know what they were talking about in the er. One said cellulitis and didn't think there was a infection. Went to CT showed a abcess. (Infection) was admitting and started on iv antibiotics. The next day I was sent back down to radiology to have abcess drained. Over 130cc of infection pulled out and a drain was put in to get the rest. Couple days later I noticed my incision was changing color and bubbly looking. By that night my incision started leaking it took almost 2 hours for the Dr to come to room to check and see what was going on. I was in excruciating pain. He finally came in started pushing and squeezed by incision I felt a pop and more pain that I can't even explain. By the next day my incision was open. The entire thing opened! Now I have to heal from the inside out. The infection was staph of which I should not of gotten. There's so much more but I think you get the point . Please be careful if you do end up going. I'd rather die in my bed then go back for anything!

I like this hospital they're very compassionate and they're one of the only hospital to offer charity care for patients who really need Healthcare of any kind. Thumbs up and I hope it continues with the amazing upgrades!

We were in the emergency room eating room for over 8 hours before they saw daughter. Should of went to the general hospital in Passaic or hackensack medical. Worse hospital in nj.

Been to several hospitals in NJ both ER's and admitted...best experience so far.

I was there last night from 10-3am waiting to be seen, people at the front desk are not really helpful or nice. I don t understand why. But wait, I had to leave because 4 1/2 hours later and still didn t get any attention. People were waiting there for 5-6 hours. Like that s crazy. NEVER AGAIN

Had my uncle stay for 3 months due to Covid 19 and a stroke caused by the virus... they took great care of him after being on ventilator on and off and gallbladder removal. He is now on Rehab Center. He is 81 years old they never gave up on him.

I was well cared for, and I thank the doctors who assist there.

Deserves no stars at all. My niece 104.5 fever, very congested and vomiting. Waited almost two hours in the emergency room. Told us only 4 kids ahead of her and they called 8 kids and still won't call my niece. Kept calling more kids and kept telling us that we were next but nothing.

Really bad waiting area they take there sweet time they will make there patients die in the waiting emergency area

The people who came with the covi19 and died are stealing their belongings as a wallet with money and cards and they do not appear where they are responsible and I have several witnesses to the same thing they believe k has no family and they throw it away and steal money they leave in your wallet

The nurses were great. The in house doctors on the other hand suck.

Came here with my daughter cause of a problem with school. It s all a misunderstanding and they are keeping us detained.told them I m leaving with my daughter and they called dyfs on me..

One of the best hospitals. Best care, well qualified and exceptional nursing staff. Highly recommend this hospital.

This hospital sucks sooo much I have never wrote bad comments but I m telling I would never in my life come here...It worst dam hospital I have ever in my life been to.. my mother hurt her self and she had bad eye and bleeding. Got to er at 2:30 took her in at 4:20 and and waiting in the dam room until 7:30 in the morning they didn t even clean her freaking wound and all I heard them do all night is make jokes about other patients and laugh and talk about other things in the world and then they say they r very busy... and my mother is in pain and still we are waiting......oh wait more to say... now nurse came with nasty attitude saying she just got here we r waiting for another doctor... when I said finally someone showed up... really !!! Like reallyyy!!!

Is the worst hospital in New Jersey nurses are rude the rooms are dirty horrible is terrible

The service was very bad especially from two nurses that were helping me in the emergency room floor number 3 her name is Nya and the second one is Iris. I was very mad because everytime I asked for help they wouldn't even look at me which made me annoyed.

St. Josephs isn t in the best part of town, but the care here, especially for children is excellent. During a scare with our 1 month old, the emergency room staff were excellent and comforting. However, the pediatric staff made us appreciate how good the ER had been. We got conflicting reports often and a lack of information even more often. Everything worked out well, but it was frustrating during the time. Their care is really top notch though.

I have no idea how this place is even running. My mom is there covid related and honestly I m afraid for her life being there. One word, Negligence. The nurses, disgustingly horrible, untrained, unprofessional. (There s been only a handful that are good, and thank god for them) I have no words for this hospital and it s nurses. They need help. And god bless they never end up in the hospital and receive the care my mother received.

There was a roach in my daughters room (she was in the er). Highly outdated, and not clean. I asked for a vending machine and the nurse told me they don t have any .... what!?!? The doctor was okay... but it was so hard to understand her accent. I would definitely recommend a different hospital - especially for your child.

I m a 13 year old kid who tore their hamstring in football and i go there in agonizing pain just to sit in a room being asked the same questions over and over again without seeing my parents. I got no x-ray or mri but was still charged 2,500 dollars.

The are good but it took too long to see the doctor and I was in pain

Really nice surprise. Modern and clean hospital. Friendly and professional nurses and staff in PACU and orthopedic unit.

I had chest pain in the middle of the night so I drove my self to the ER , in which case the threw in a room with no sheets no pillow, freezing, no one came to my bed from the staff , finally when the nurse showed up to draw blood from me I asked her for a pillow or some sheets , she replied we have better priorities then getting you a pillow or sheets ,, I would rather go through the pain than go thru the humiliation that I felt at the hospital !! worst of the worst hospital

Unfortunately I have to say, every experiences I have with this hospital Is negative.The staff lacks manners and has constant careless attitude. Some staff, I cannot say all, do not even know what they are supposed to be doing. And I completely understand that we are all humans and make mistakes however, individuals lives are in these nurses and doctor s hands. My mom went for stitches on her finger and I believe they tried numbing her finger but it didn t fully numb it therefore she was feeling all the pain. She cried and clearly was not okay. At one point my mother fainted and began seizing is what is looked like. And this is the first time that has ever occurred. There were two nurses with my mother and neither of them knew what to do. While one was trying to tap her while she s clearly unconscious, the other one was yelling asking who should she call. I really don t understand how both of them did not know who to call or what procedures to follow. I am very upset at myself that I did not record this or even get their names but clearly I was far more worried about getting my mom out of there alive and far from this hospital.

St Joseph s Hospital: the
Better, excellent service always.

St Joseph hospital is the best I add my son there and the treatment was adorable nurses and doctor r very nice and knowledgeable

Total catastrophe in waiting room for 5 hours I will never come back

I can't even begin to describe how horrible my experience was. By far the worst hospital i ever had the miss fortune to have been admitted to. The fact that i am still alive is a miracle!

One of the least professional and filthiest hospitals I've been in. They performed surgery on my mom who receives Medicare. After surgery, my sister and I asked to see him to find out how it went. The surgeon was annoyed and frustrated that we even asked for his time as he said he was very busy. Mind you this was a surgery to remove a cancerous tumor. He also went on to say he did us a favor because he is a renowned surgeon who rarely ever takes medicaid of medicare. We were floored by how much compassion he lacked as my mother lay unconscious on the recovery bed. Awful.

All of the staff especially the male doctors are very sweet and made me feel so comfortable considering the crazy situation I was in going there. Also extremely clean and quick service. The only reason why it isn t 5 stars is because of one of the ultrasound technicians. I felt like I was ruining her day just by being there. If you re gonna have a chip on your shoulder don t work in healthcare.

Rude ultrasound receptionist showed total disregard for patient privacy and protected health information. Ultrasound tech was extremely condescending and incompetent: she was like "um, I don't know if you know what hold your breath means, but I see a lot of movement." Anyone with any medical training at all would've done a better job than that low life.

My son recently had surgery at the hospital. Dr. Aziz is amazing and truly an awesome doctor. When my son came out of surgery he was in very agitated and the nurses were truly companionate and patient. Sandy and Breanna on the Piccu were second to none.

They are actually the worst hospital I have ever encountered and they overbill you heavily so if you plan on using them you should also make sure you have a family lawyer to monitor their overbilling process.

My brother died because they misdiagnosed him with the wrong cancer. He could have been getting the right treatment and he would have still been alive.
I think it's the fact that the staff are religious and not from this country that they make mistakes and if that's the case why become a doctor. You cannot play with someone's health. That is a very serious offense!
Warning!: If you're from the state of Nj do not go to any hospitals that are located in any type of ghetto or low income community. They'll have anybody dealing with your health. Go to Paramus or Hackensack or somewhere that is more suburban like. The doctors are more attentive and won't rush through you like the staff in St. Josephs hospital. Please don't do it to your self. Save yourselves!

They are so professional thank you all the staff
they saved my life and my kids both born here thank you st. Joseph s

The worst hospital of all the attention is terrible they leave you waiting for hours, the place is not in hygienic conditions it smells bad and it is not clean and what to say about most of the staff are unpleasant and they look at you as if you were a nuisance is a shame that being a hospital where it is supposed to give peace of mind to people who arrive sick only make us feel uncomfortable and afraid. And it is not the first time that happens to me but unfortunately it was the closest I had and I really felt bad but I hope I do not have to go back to this horrible place.

Everything. From when I got there till when I left. From when I opened the main entrance doors to the freindly lady there who gave me a pass to go to the surgery department. And admissions so privite I paid and was taken upstairs to the 1st floor. When I meet two ladies who would check me in. They where so comforting. They made me laugh and made me even forget what I was there for. I then meet with the nurse. She offered me soothing music as surgery is very stressful. I meet with a few other people whom where also so freindly I felt as I was in a 5 star hotel. And my dr. Amazing Dr christiansen. Really knows his practice extremely professional I will recommend him to everyone I come in to contact with that needs a dr. Everyone I talked to there really was a dream to be seen by. I am writing this review because I want everyone to know that st joes hospital has come along way and in my eyes the best in nj. I was at valley in Ridgewood and had the worst experiance 3 weeks ago. Where I needed to wait 5 hours for water. St joes is a country club compared to that jail in ridgewood.

I just came out of same day surgery and let me
Tell you that the staff from registration, nurses, nurse assistant, anesthesiologist and others really took care of me. They really made me feel very comfortable and safe. The nurse was very delicate and so sweet. I want to thank them so much for the best experience while I felt nervous and scared.

Always have had a good experience. Been here for emergency room and labor and delivery for my wife. Never had a bad experience. The staff in my opinion have been professional.

Terrible experience with Human Resources specifically. I called on 2 occasions regarding the status of an Application. The first time, a woman hung on on me. The second time, she put me on hold to a gentleman who told me he was the one who posted the job and I should "pump my brakes" when I only called to check if anybody had viewed my application. Both had a false sense of grandeur, and were extremely rude; made me reconsider wanting to work there.

Staff is very attentive and all the nurses are doing their job with a smile and they truly care. Thank you.

Emergency room Doctor Reese refuses to treat me any time I go there I'm not the only one in one time he even said that to me from behind the ER nursing station and he did not treat me he violated the law and my rights on several occasions stay away from this horrible thing that calls itself a hospital, especially from Dr Reese. I believe him to be a sociopath and a monster not literally of course.

Almost 3 hours at the waiting room
.

W

The best staff and doctors!!! Special thanks for dr Markowitz

Staff is so nice, spotless and brand new. Everything is ran smoothly and I had a good experience. Not sure how and why anyone would say anything bad about this place. A lot better than most hospitals in north jersey

they make wait for ever. The doctors usually don't check you at all, they act based on guessing. The point is that the hospital sucks, the charge you with more money that they are supposed to. My insurance card have the rate of copay for each visit, even though they charge me 28 bucks over the real price.

Staff has poor patient skills. Need to learn to be compassiante. People get jobs just to have jobs. Nurses need to be more compassionate and help disabled pstients. I went in with fractured foot pain. One nurse named Shelly didn't even want to help me take of my shoe she said I had to do it myself for doctor when he comes in. I was crying of pain. Cheif of department Marianna Karonos came to my rescue and heard my complaint and helped take out shoe and sock. I went to get xray they asked me to get out of wheelchair by myself. After i asked to assist they finally helped me one looked aggravated to not want to help. Then u had to give them the idea to slide me with sheet with two people. Staff was dismissive no compassion. Some were all good some were bothered. They need to hire compassiante workers to help the sick and elderly. Not bothered or not wanting to help assist injured people. A nurse job is patient care and help. They lack knowledge of patient care. I did have a guy and lady help assist for bathroom. There needs to be more observation on HOW staff treats patients. I recommend either a meeting staff should have to do better pt care and assist for fall risk pts. They didnt even put a fall risk arm bracelet. Some of them expected me to do everything myself . Im in an emergency room to get help not to be ignored or have nurses to not help assist.. Better patient care and assistance for pts who can't walk. There was some good nurses,a tall Man not sure his name and a nurse name Iris helped as well Hope they change their attiudes to positive and helpful. If not go elswhere

St Joe's does not deserve any star what so ever does not matter the condition your in if you go with trouble breathing they don't care you have to wait your turn and if your bleeding real bad which I saw happen dripping thru the bandage they don't care they think you are lying to get seen first people go to hackensack hospital they got it together there doctor and nurses at hackensack treat you like the human being you are st Joe's your just piece of meat I have update I went to the ER because I couldn't breath felt like I was breathing thru a straw and wheezing heavily the front desk took my info and told me to sit half hour later I went back and told them listen to my breathing they said I was fine and had to wait so I left called ambulance they came along with medics they couldn't believe the condition I was in my o2 was low and rushed me to the hospital when I finally got there I was sworm with nurse and doctors I told what happened up front and they were shocked that was not supposed to happen 12 days later I was discharged.

This hospital has changed so much they suck and they are so unprofessional speaking rudely about their patients. I went in today for a fever and sore throat and they didn't even bother sending me to a real room. They kept me in an open room and nurses kept coming in and out speaking in different languages. Then once the doc saw me he said that the only thing he can give me for my fever that I had since Friday is tylenol. Are you serious now I'm going to get a huge bill for just a tylenol prescription that I have at home! What a waste of time!!!! Never again!!! So disappointed.

Me and my son arrived in an ambulance because he was going through sezuires and the left us in the waiting area with no doctor stopping his seizures or anything for hours I had to watch my son go through this ... this hospital is the worst they should knock it down

LONG BUT PLEASE READ IT MIGHT SAVE YOUR LIFE!
My Mom was in the hospital several times last year and already 2 times this year. Her most recent visit was a disgrace. I made a BIG mistake not to call an ambulance. We arrived to the ER on Sunday, July 28th at 6:00pm to be greeted by a woman that looked me over from top to bottom and then proceeded to just ignore me as she stared at her computer screen. I didn't walk away and finally she acknowledged me. Explained my mom was discharged on the 18th (10 days ago) and that she is in severe pain, unable to walk, having difficult breathing, explained she is turning yellow and her stomach is all bloated and getting larger. They told me to provide her name etc and for us to sit down to wait to be called. We got called to the registration desk about 1/2 hour later where we gave additional information. Again sit and wait to be called about another 1/2 hour. Called again to bring her to a woman in a small room that hooked her up to an a monitor. I had to lift my mom myself as this woman just stood and watched me struggle. Once she was done we were told to go in the hallway to wait to be called. 2 1/2 hours later we got called to a registration desk to take more insurance information and for her to sign in. I asked how long and was told that our name will be called. We sat there for what seemed days but was hours. I kept going up to the desk to plead for them to see my mom as she was turning more yellow and was in extreme pain. they said just to sit down and wait to be called. I begged and begged, my mom cried in pain and nothing. Finally after 6 1/2 hours later they called her name. We went inside the doctor checked her out and ordered test. It wasn't long after the test were taken and read the doctor came and indicated that she has a blockage in her large intestine that caused a rupture and that she needed immediate surgery. I was told we didn't have time for a second opinion as the stuff that has been leaking in her stomach for over 6 hours is now threatening her life. He white blood count was so high and she has a major infection. So for all those hours sitting begging and pleading for someone to examine her meant nothing to those ppl at the front desk of the ER now my 81 year old mom is fighting to live. The staff at the ER had no compassion and could care less. As a matter of fact I felt that every time I approached them my mom was pushed further down the list as ppl that came in after us were called before us. The staff laughed when about half a dozen ppl got up and took of the bracelet and walked out he door. Is this the goal so they still bill insurance for your time sitting in the waiting room? The amount of names called and nobody stood up because they were gone without telling staff. Now my mom is in ICU fighting for her life. Her heart is weak, her body is weak and because of the wait she now has a colostomy bag. The way she and other people were treated that night is unfair and inhumane. Where is her rights as a human being to be treated with dignity and respect. Where is her right to get medical attention in a very clear evident emergency. Who is responsible that her life was on the line while those ppl just ignored us and could care less. Anyone that had eyes could have seen that something very serious was going on with her. Please do not take your loved one to this ER. The doctors and nurses inside are saints but to get to them you first need to recon with the devils at the desk that should not be there. Stay away!!

This is a great hospital every one was very nice to me. I would recommend it to everyone

If I could say 0 stars I would. Don t ever come to this hospital. I ve watch people who were bleeding be left in the waiting room. People with broken bones left in the waiting room. I ve gone through 15 hour waits just sitting there in pain and so tired I wanted to cry. Please knock this building down and torturing people. Worst place ever in history. I m never going back there. I ll catch a bus to a different hospital. I d be home before anyone who comes here.

Pediatric emergency room is very disorganized, and needs lot more coordination. 11pm shift left and we are left on the hallway while after 11pm patients got rooms. Nurse assistant said oh 11pm shift left and they didn t update . Good thing it has been only 2.5hr since we checked this evening. Hope the adult emergency room is better (I wish).

Unbelievable on how unfair myself and other patients were treated in the ER . No compassion at all for anyone . Shame

Peace be upon you. Are there female doctors within the outpatient clinics to follow up the condition of the pregnant woman and her childbirth? Please provide me with their names.

The staff laugh at the patients and it has been recorded and the proper authorities has been notified. Along with the patient being denied treatment. The nurses were pretending to be drs as well. Don't come here if you value your health and sanity.

Worst hospital. Terrible staff and terrible service would give it negative stars if i could

WORST HOSPITAL EVER. Don t go there, they re all students just getting out of school learning with lives of patients! Please DON T GO THERE

This hospital is the worst hospital in the all world specially in delivery department
So i hope from all people not go threr .
First time in my life i see no private room for new mamy
Very bad experience

Paterson is a tough place to run a professional hospital. They re the only ones in the area and we should be grateful for their services.

horrible horrible hospital. Not caring enough of patients and workers

Sitting in the ER since 6pm with my daughter and grandson with a fever of 102, was called in at 8, 11 and still n ones has come to check up on him. St Joe's employee walks in with her child, dr, nurses and everyone comes to check up on the child is given treatment right away and all is good, meanwhile we and every other patient has been waitting for five to six hours or so, some even more, what a freaking joke.

My wife's water broke and I drove straight to the emergency room( my mistake). It took them a while to get someone to assist us. Afterwards everything went great. Her doctor showed up at the appointed time and performed the surgery. The nurses and pcas were great. They we're extremely helpful and always showed up with a smile. The doctor would show up for a minute to make sure everything was fine and leave. Other then my mistake I can't complain. Thanks !

Best trauma hospital around. They saved my husband's life. Doctors and staff were fabulous. I am a nurse who is not affiliated with this hospital and usually find something to complain about but not with St Joe's. Since 2017 we have been there close to a dozen times. Very professional. Such a shame for bad reviews. May be coming from people who use the hospital as a clinic for free health care.

If you can find another place where to get done your ultrasounds while your pregnancy Do it, DON'T come here ! The worst, you will be waiting literally 2 hours or more, I hate coming here, I'm always earlylier at leats 30 minutes from my appointment time , sometimes I'm the only one in the waiting room and I'm still called many people before me, of course i complain but I'm tired of get upset and complain every single time, thank god I'm getting to the last weeks of pregnancy and i won't have to come here anymore.

WORST HOSPITAL EVER. TOOK MY DAD TO THE ER WITH AMBULANCE NOT ONLY DID THEY MAKE US WAIT IN WAITING ROOM FOR HALF HOUR, MY DAD WAS IN SO MUCH PAIN THAT HE WAS ABOUT TO FAINT AND LAYED ON THE FILTHY DIRTY CHAIRS IN THE WAITING ROOM AND SECURITY CAME AND SAID HE CANNOT LAY THERE AND STATED THE CHAIRS WERE NOT A BED. I told him my dad was in pain but he still argued that this was not a hotel. UM EXCUSE ME? I WOULD UNDERSTAND IF THE WAITING ROOM WAS PACKED BUT IT WAS EMPTY. RIDICULOUS.

As you walk in to your room from the ER waiting room there are always homeless peope or drunkies lying in the hallways and it always smells filthy, the bathrooms are ALWAYS nasty. You have to literally beg the nurses to come check on you even if you ring the bell several times.
I do not wish sickness upon my enemy, and I am hoping no one ends up here because it is a horrible place, all they are good at is billing you.
I recommend chilton hospital, so much better than this place. It is a little bit farther but there are no long lines, great customer service and check out is pretty fast.
I am willing to report this hospital anywhere so they can actually make a change...

My son almost died so i had to take him to st marys No good service

Worset service, worset atuttide, i came to emergency brcause i have an emergency not because i feel good and just came to sit there. I waited 2 hours to go in, and i threw up 3 times in the waiting room and they still didn't let me go in. And i know whats wrong with me but every person i meet i have to explain over and over whats wrong with me! Like im fading and passing out and getting dizzy before i throw up. And i throw up every 20 mins. When i went inside also like 1 hour of questions and they already have everything. At the end they gave me a pill to relax and thats was all i wanted. This thing happens to me like every couple of years. And i know whats wrong.

People there are so mean. They do not respect the patient, do not smile at all. The worst hospital i have ever seen

ER department is not serving well to patients. I took my mom at 4 am to find what exactly was going on. she kept complaining about her feet hurts and her nose was bleeding because she fell down but they never did any x-ray so we had to ask her primary doctor to give us prescription to get x-ray done. I asked them so many times to do something about it but no they just didn't do anything. People go to hospital to get help, feel better and get answers about what's going on. Yes I got answers but wasn't really satisfied with their answers.

Horrible amount of waiting time and lack of care my two year old son came into the emergency room showing signs of brain trama and it took them 5 hours to even give a cat scan.

I went in to the ER for chest pains, shortness of breath and Wheezing. I showed up at 3:30PM and was immediately taken in to get an EKG done. After the EKG was done they sent me back out to the waiting area where I sat for 4 hours. I was then taken to a room which was filthy and had blood all over the floor. (YUCK!) Curtains that served as walls were also filthy. I don't know about any of you but when I was a child St. Joseph's was known as the best hospital in Northern Jersey, over the years the place became a joke. The ER staff aren't sympathetic. The ER doctor and nurse were great but the filth in the room and blood all along the floor turned me off and reminded me why I rather drive the extra 5-10 miles to go to Hackensack!

If I could leave a zero star I would. the pediatric emergency is a joke. I came in with my 10 month year old daughter at 3am and was never seen. I decide to take my daughter to hackensack hospital because of the lack of attendance.it was 5am.no one ever came in the room to asked if everything was ok or please be patient we will be with you or anything.any acknowledgement would have made us feel like we were there and not forgotten. mind you my 10month daughter is crying in pain and we dont know what it is. so I requested some sort of paperwork for taking my daughter to another hospital or discharge papers. anything showing we were there and the vital signs that were taken at that time so I can show hackensackwhat they were at that time and registered at the reception and I was told no I can just walk out. no papers or anything to sign. but that if I'm concern about my daughter i should wait to get seen. i responded and that's why we are leaving because i am concern and i want my daughter seen. it's now almost 1 hour and 1/2 since we went in. I wouldn't recommend this hospital. lack of concern and well being of babies. horrible experience. take your kids somewhere else to be seen.

My son was born at 25 week weight 1 pound and 6 oz and everything was just great. Today he is 19 months weighting 31 pound and in great condition, thanks to the doctors, nurses and staff.

They don't deserve even 1 star. Apparently their billing department doesn't know what the hell they are doing. My husband went to the emergency room and our insurance covers that, yet they billed us stating it was a routine and tried to charge us $2000. Our insurance eventually straightened it out with them but they harassed us too many times for a mistake on their end. I guess shouldn't be surprised from a hospital located in paterson. I had given birth in hackensack and was not charged a penny for having a baby. Go anywhere but st joseph's. Clearly who ever works in the billing department didn't get any training or just trying to be a crook

I really hate it, this hospital sucks, i hope me and my family dont have to come back here, the people that work in labor and delivery SUCK, they're rude mean, very unprofessional.

I had cardiac bypass surgery at St. Joseph's. 100% from start to finish. Incredible surgeons (Dr. Connolly), nurses and Physician's Assistants.

I had my first mammogram appointment at this location in June 2020. As soon as I walked into the office I felt calm and reassured knowing the office was owned by women. My appointment went every smooth. I am filled with gratitude to the wonderful staff for a wonderful visit.
