Johns Hopkins Howard County Medical Center

Our experience at Johns Hopkins Hospital during my wife’s planned C-section was deeply traumatic. The epidural/spinal anesthesia did not work, and it was attempted multiple times (about four injections). My wife kept telling the doctors she was not numb and could still feel pain. She was also given additional anesthesia through the IV, but she still felt pain and even felt the surgical incision before they finally switched to general anesthesia. I was in the room with her, and every moment was unbearable to watch as her husband. No one should have to see their loved one suffer like that during surgery. What hurt almost as much was the lack of compassion from most of the doctors involved. We felt ignored when we were asking for help and reassurance. Only one nurse showed real empathy and

They have one of the best nurses I’ve ever encountered, she’s so smart, kind and very attentive. Olivia is very skilled and very good with people and especially kids. She knows exactly how to deal with each patient, she’s very good at her job. She’s excited about doing her job and she does it well. Olivia definitely is born for this type of job, she would do well with any situation. Keep up the good work guys keep hiring the young aspiring nurses. Great work team.

The staff at labor and delivery unit are awesome. Every one does their job with the utmost professionalism and respect. You can definitely see they love their job. Special shout out to Monet and team. That being said, it's very important that patients stay on top of their next medication since nurses tend to forget. I assume it's because of the large workload they have. Grubhub guest ordering experience is also confusing , and I didn't get one of my meals delivered.

I received outstanding care when I came into the ER around 3 am with Rapid AFIB. Within minutes of coming in I was being treated and admitted to observation unit. I can’t say enough about everyone from cleaning to food service, techs, nursing staff and various resident specialists including cardiology, endocrine, anesthesiologist and various attending. Multiple contributing medical issues were addressed, medicine changes and cardio version by mid day then shortly home. Thank you all for putting me back in operational status!!!

I visited the ER yesterday for very bad back pain. The wait honestly wasn’t bad. I like how bags are checked prior to coming in for every one’s safety. I mainly came to say that every nurse I’ve came in contact with was amazing! Everyone got along well and they actually showed that they care and that means a lot. Thank you for taking care of me! You guys are awesome ❤️
