Central Dupage Hospital

DO NOT COME HERE IF YOU HAVE A MEDICAL EMERGENCY!!!!!! I think it’s clear by the number of terrible emergency room reviews that something needs to be done. They cannot handle normal flow of patients as the majority of bad reviews are about the night staff and the ER. We are 3rd in line after waiting for over 4 hours because too many ambulances arrived. Yet, people who have been arrested have gone back and have been seen while I have been sitting here. Elderly patients are being sat in the waiting room with IVs and a bloody towel for their nose bleeds (not changed). If they can’t handle their current patients and ambulances then they either need to show a wait time somewhere before getting checked in or have ambulances go someplace else, so the 20+ people waiting for hours can be processed. An “emergency” shouldn’t be checked on after 5 hours, and the management and organization is just shameful. But, as I can see by the comments and the fact that this is still going on, it doesn’t look like anything will be done about it. Avoid this place if you have to go to the ER for anything. They will only see you in a timely manner if you come in via ambulance. *Edit: After nearly 6 hours, my girlfriend is clearly not going to be seen anytime soon for her deep chest pain and difficulty breathing (she told the nurse her pain was 9 out of 10 around 10pm, it’s now nearly 2am). We are preparing to leave because we shouldnt have picked to go to this hospital. They do not value the emotions or feelings of their emergency patients nearly enough to warrant having an emergency department. I will never suggest my family or friends come here. Edwards hospital would have seen us and gotten us on the move already. Grown men are crying in the waiting room because they are being neglected. I was told ambulances were given preference, and now being told they aren’t taking ambulances first. I was told my girlfriend had an EKG when she didn’t, and when I voiced my concern for the third those they were more than fine with us leaving the ER and not being treated. This place is an absolutely embarrassment. They see people being arrested so cops can go on with their day than people with serious chest pain and shortness of breath.

I recently had surgery at this hospital and I was super nervous about it all just because of past bad experience at a different hospital. However this hospital is wonderful in every aspect from the hospital to itself all the way to the staff. Everyone is so nice and make sure you are comfortable the whole time you are there.

I have been going to Midwest Orthopedics for 2+ years now. With my history of bad knees for the last 30 years, I can tell you that I did my research for the best of the best. I found it at Midwest Orthopedics. My experience has been easy and truthful. The doctors have been honest and did not push me to make a decision that was not my decision nor a decision that was going to hurt my overall health. I have found my doctors and will not go anywhere else.

Top-notch regional hospital in the western suburbs of Chicago. Special kudos to the staff in the Emergency Room. The ER doctors are smart and efficient.

This is a few months late. I was hospitalized from December 10, 2018 until December 16, 2018. The experience was absolutely amazing. The nurses (Sam, Ashley and Emily) on the 4th floor room 444 were absolutely fantastic. They treated me as if I was their own Mother. Also one if the Patient Tech (Liz) was absolutely amazing also. Thank you for your amazing professional service.
