St. Joseph's Hospital- North 4211 Van Dyke Road, Lutz, FL 33558

"I recently had to go to the ER, and to be honest, was very nervous. I have only been in Florida for a couple of years and I had previously had a really bad experience with HCA, in that they miss diagnosed something serious. I WAS BEYOND DELIGHTED AND IMPRESSED WITH EVERY ASPECT OF ST JOES NORTH!!!! The ER was very clean and efficient. They diagnosed my appendicitis very quickly and I was met by a great surgeon in under an hour. While they didn’t do the surgery until the following day, they admitted me and my care was exceptional. Every single member of the staff was friendly and ensured all of my needs were being met. The rooms were updated and very clean. Even when they transported me, as soon as they took me off of the stretcher, the gentleman wiped it down completely with disinfectant Before leaving. It definitely gave me a sense of security. HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS HOSPITAL AND ER!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"

"I was unexpectedly admitted to the hospital after an emergency room visit- everyone, from the emergency room personnel, nurses and doctors, to the hospital care team and personnel were amazing! I was very fortunate to be evaluated quickly, the problem was diagnosed, and addressed. The communication was clear, the care team was attentive, and I'm so glad if I had to go through this journey with was with the St. Joe's team!"

"From the moment I walked in, I was escorted to each place I needed to go to be admitted before the procedure. I didn't have to worry about getting lost when my I was already feeling a bit anxious. Everyone I met along the way was beyond friendly and personable. It really helped my nerves. The nurses were friendly, attentive and professional. I was very impressed with the entire experience. It was a well-oiled machine with a friendly and personal touch."

"Everything ran smoothly and on time. everyone was friendly, caring and efficient. ..Dana at the front desk was kind and quick to send us to the right place. Carla, the volunteer, was very helpful and knowledgeable. All the nurses were great,,,Sam, Maggie, and Emily. Sr. Salman was great! He took the time to keep us informed at every turn and performed the procedure as expected. we were pleased with our visit."

"I had an ambulatory surgery here. The pre-op testing was done three days ahead of the procedure. The RN who took care of me was kind and efficient. But after two pokes without finding a good vein for the blood draw, an RN from the IV team was called in to do the job with the guidance of an ultrasound device. On the day of the procedure, the admission process was smooth and pleasant. The staff person there was again kind and efficient. Then a volunteer accompanied me to the prep room. Once again, the RN and the anesthesiologist are kind and efficient. My surgeon also stopped in to explain the procedure and other things that I should know. Afterwards, I waited beyond the scheduled time. I was told that was because the patient before me took longer than expected. They let my wife stay with me in that meantime. Eventually, I was wheeled into the OR. Several persons were working in there. They explained things to me further and got me all set up for the surgery. Then someone put a mask over my nose and mouth, and I was out. When I was conscious again, I was in the recovery room with my wife at my side. My surgeon has already talked to her and assured her that everything in the OR. Thank Providence everything went as planned. Before long, another RN made sure I got all the necessary information and was ready physically to go home. All in all, I am very happy with this facility, and much more than that, I am very grateful for all the professionals who have helped make this surgery a pleasant and successful experience for me."
