John Dempsey UConn Hospital in Farmington, Connecticut, delivers world-class care with a compassionate touch. From the moment you walk through the doors, the staff treats you with respect, professionalism, and genuine kindness. The doctors, nurses, and support team go above and beyond to make sure patients and families feel informed, supported, and cared for every step of the way.

There's some really good people here and some really lousy terrible nurses and staff that seem to lost sight of why they work in a hospital to begin with which is to reduce the suffering of people and make them feel as human as possible. Harder jobs in this exists for the men and women are keeping up better attitudes and I've seen from a lot of the staff here. But since the doctors were so on point and for all the hard-working people I will not give it a one-star review I will give it a three-star review. When they take away all your prescription medication and they are responsible for everything you eat and drink. It has a certain demoralizing effect that is only countered by a good attitude. Thank you. The video when you first get to your room literally States you're supposed to ask ques

On the advice of my UConn surgeon who is a stellar surgeon and doctor I returned to the ER with gallbladder pain that’s inoperable because of previous scar tissue I’d been vomiting with diarrhea for 30 hours. I spent 3 hours in the hallway the nurses were great but I had a PA that questioned me repeatedly about drinking alcohol!!! I don’t even drink I don’t think she even bothered looking at my surgical history and seemed obsessed about alcohol consumption and drinking issues At which point I just went home and am still sick. I will move this up the food chain but expect the usual song and dance about it being my fault for “misunderstanding”. Although I have great respect for my surgeons and doctors I will not be going back to the ER. I will further escalate this to the State of Connec

They have saved my husband’s life in the past 6 days when he went septic after a procedure. But I do have a suggestion. If a yellow gown is required before entering a patient room, it would be helpful if there was a chair to put your coat and other things one instead of dropping them On the floor.

If there's any truth to the adage that we learn more from our mistakes than our successes, then the UCONN Hospital surely must be one of the best teaching hospitals in the world. It can only be that the negative patient experiences and outcomes prevent it from being ranked as such. Getting an "A" for effort shouldn't be applicable in this setting, but it does appear to be the most important metric applied here. Never have I seen a place where so many mistakes have been made on a single patient, only to be compounded by more mistakes topped with a fat dollop of obviously bad judgement. I'd say that I wouldn't be caught dead at this hospital, but I suspect that's the most likely result of choosing this facility. Zero stars. Don't recommend.
