Reviews
"Everyone was so friendly and extremely helpful which I'm so grateful for in my time of need, especially the radiology department."
"Very grateful to staff from triage, through to nurse and Dr. Thank you for looking after me so well and kindly."
"I would like to thank the team in the Wonthaggi Emergency Department. I went there with a reasonably serious problem: they saw me promptly and more importantly explained what they were going to do every step of the way. It was wonderful to be treated with kindness and compassion when they are no doubt very busy - it really helps when you are feeling vulnerable. Thanks very much!"
"While in shock from a serious injury i received excellent care here. The staff all treated me like a mate and and equal. The hospital is clean but they are also managing well with construction and Covid 19. Dontbwantbto have to go back but happy if I have to."
