Select Specialty Hospital - Oakland

"All of the clinical team including RN, RT, Rehab, NA, Dietitians, and doctors treated me so well. They were compassionate and inspired me to believe in myself even though I didn't. They were always positive and helpful to me. This allowed me to make a full recovery when I didn't think it was possible. I recommend this hospital to anyone who needs their care."

"Nasty place flies and bugs..staff unprofessional and non-attentive to patients. Lie about their care standards. Beware! They have a good promotional team who are trained to make you believe they will give good care but it is not true. The patients are basically left on their own, if family is not there to help. Never saw a doctor only heard through word of mouth that there were, but never saw one."

"I am a new Registered nurse and a new employee of Select Specialty Hospital-Oakland. I have found this company to be very supportive of providing a learning environment. I am very impressed with the safe quality patient care provided, and proud to be an employee."

"If you want to know the inside scoop about any healthcare facility, ask the employees! I have been employed with Select Specialty Hospital for almost a year, and it has been the most wonderful experience! I joined the staff as a Nurse with a background in critical care and surgery, and even after 10 months I continue to be impressed by the leadership in this company. Every single team member at Select Pontiac, from the CEO to the Physicians, Case management, Admissions, Nursing team, Respiratory Therapy, Nutritionist, Physical therapy and beyond- are outstanding people that I’m very proud to work with! The commitment to quality care and maintaining a positive work environment is what I love most. Watching patients progress from a critical illness to recovery under our care, has been one of the most inspiring parts of my career as a Nurse. This is the only place I would want my family member. The facility is beautiful with all private rooms, and the level of care is much more advanced than a standard Rehab, as we can manage patients on ventilators and patients that are medically complex. Also, being located inside of St. Joseph Mercy Hospital (which is also top notch) is a bonus, and an added layer of support should the patient need testing or procedures while with us. I highly recommend Select as both a place of employment as well as a place for high quality patient care!"

"This is a very nice place and everyone was pleasant and helpful here. I was here overnight. Great private room. I had probably 50 people touching me at some point over the two days and not one person was rude. As hospitals go, they bother you every half hour for something. I asked to be left alone from 11-6 and they did. My daughter was with me and the chairs and desk converted into a bed for her. The downstairs was insane with large fireplace built in and art work etc. just beautiful."
