Bankstown-Lidcombe Hospital

"Amazing work emergency service and so kind Doctors and Nurses. Thank you Dr Julian and Dr Mark and nursing staff. You did a fantastic job to help me breathe back to normal."

"if i could give this hospital 0 rating i would. My god is it awful! i came in 2 weeks ago to get stitches on my arm after a terrible cut, had to wait 3 hours in the ER to finally be seen by a doctor. He was nice at first, until he told his colleague he couldn’t wait till his shift was over WHILE stitching my arm?? i felt unsafe! Today i am making this review because i went to my GP to get my stitches removed and she told me the doctor that performed the suturing had done it way too tight causing the skin to grow over it. Another bad experience, we sent my brother to the ER here just a few days ago as he was in extreme stomach pain. he was on the floor crying and the nurse looks at him and says in a disgusting tone “We’re busy calm down you don’t have to scream and carry on like this” Um excuse me? The lack of care is unbelievable. Mind you we had to wait 5 HOURS to be seen by a doctor. The nurses were horrible too. we walked right out. Never again! i have learnt my lesson for sure now to never ever return here"

"Half this hospital has been taken over by Gen Z teenagers which is a very big concern for the general health and well-being of our community. I waited like 10 hours just to figure out why I was having light chest pain. I got here at 7PM it’s currently almost 5AM the next day in emergency…. I went through 3 different nurses and a doctor because the shifts kept ending and rotating. No one comes to you to inform you of any update or your nurse/doctor changing. A bunch of teenagers who seem like it’s their first week running around the shop and jumping in-front of angry patience. Never coming here again I would rather pass away from a heart attack… in fact I probably would have died tonight and they would have put my body in the waiting room and said “wait your turn”."

"Unable to rate this hospital at all. Doctors in the emergency department could not explain their diagnosis of my mother having non-specific back pain. The physiotherapist joined in with her rude and over insistent opinion of resolving my mother's pain with exercises. And then there was nurse Shirley's hinderance behaviour and lack of empathy. This hospital contributed to the delay of my mother's diagnosis, pain management and treatment of breast metastasis to bone. My mother is relieved to be treated at another hospital."

"This hospital doesn't deserve any star at all. Waiting in Emergency department for 6 hours with tummy pain. Requested pain medication several time. The nurses don't have time for last six hours to give me a medicine. Doctor.. long way to go .. Don't know how long at least 6 plus hours to see a doctor. Don't come here if you have other choice"
