Clara Maass Medical Center

"The staff at Clara Maass Medical Center was commendably good and friendly. My wife underwent same-day surgery, and the overall experience was pleasant. The nurse was exceptionally cooperative and kind. However, there's room for improvement in communication regarding parking for same-day surgery patients. Rushed individuals tend to park in the paid parking lot, causing confusion. Additionally, the post-surgery snack, limited to a vegetarian muffin and packaged fruit juice, could be enhanced for a more satisfying recovery experience. Muffins might not be the optimal choice, especially after surgery."

"I’m coming here just to thank the nurse Lu in floor 5 of how professional, engaged and caring person he is. He helped my mom and attended all my requests and doing all possible to have her discharged. He is a true gem and honestly he was explaining me all my mom’s situation with clarity and knowledge. Thanks Lu!"

"Had a wonderful child birth experience last month at Clara Mass. The nurses were all pleasant and willing to help. Lastly, the catering unit is top notch."

"I'm not sure how this hospital only has 2.6 stars. I've been in and out of numerous hospitals over my 40 yeas, and Clara Maass is by far the best. I had to have a same day surgery preformed there yesterday. From the time I stepped into this hospital to the time I left, I was treated with such compassion, kindness, respect and love. The entire staff here remembers how important the bedside manner is, in that most of us are afraid when we need to be in the hospital. We even shared some good laughs, and we all know that's great for the soul and healing. God Bless all of you there at Clara Maass, thank you for all you do. Love me!!!! :)"

"I Visited the same day surgery center located at 142 Magnolia St. So this review is about that and NOT for the actual hospital located at the same block. Surgery center staff was very helpful and in such positive and upbeat mood to greet us even at 5.30 AM when we arrived. The registration and prep work for surgery was surprisingly on schedule and no delay for any step at all. Great efficiency with great personal attention!! There is a parking lot right across the entrance. Just push the button on the dial pad at the gate and tell them you are there for a same day surgery and the guard will open it for you. Two vending machines in the hallway and public restrooms too. All located close to the waiting area. Vending machines serve hot drinks like different coffees and teas. One machine serves snacks. Apple pay and credit cards are accepted to pay for stuff from both vending machines. There is also a full cafeteria in the basement. Just take an elevator to level L. Good and more choices to eat in cafe. Serves really good coffee. Breakfast is open till 10.30a. If you go there with a family member or for your own medical procedure, good luck and God Bless!!"
