Had a recent 3 night stay (originally meant to be 2 nights) and had a very average experience. The admission staff were amazing and gave a great first impression, food was quite good and the rooms kept clean however it went downhill once I was taken to my room following my surgery. Firstly I was given a shared room (although on my own) despite the ward being 3/4 empty with lovely single rooms with views being vacant. Apart from the routine morning blood pressure and temperature check NOT ONCE during my 3 night stay did the nurses check in on me nor did they once fill my water jug to take my meds. I had to ask where I could fill my jug and was directed to a room at the end of the hall, just 12 hours after surgery. My sheets were bloodied and had asked for them to be changed whilst I showered yet a nurse put down a clean towel over my bloodied sheets. They were changed 2.5 hours later after a further request. I was in quite a lot pain after the second night which I hesitantly buzzed the nurses for some pain killers and later saw them in the morning when to my disbelief they informed me I was being discharged. I practically had to beg to stay another night as I didn’t have any home care. I truly felt I was forgotten about by the nursing team during my entire stay. Really disappointing experience and felt an incredible lack of care from the nurses. Likely to have further surgeries and hesitant to stay here again.

I had spinal surgery and was dreading it as I work in health and I know what it is all about and the care required. I had amazing care. Right from the start everything went well; the reception staff were helpful and kind and did what they could to help. My only criticism was going into the perioperative area to begin with. The AIN was rude, abrupt and needs to be taught how to do his job as he doesn't have a clue; his English was awful and he had problems understanding what was said to him and had to be told that I couldn't carry my bag; which anyone would be able to see. I could hardly walk and was doing so with a stick and support from my brother. That is the ONLY criticism. The other staff were fantastic. The preoperative area was well managed, the staff friendly and supportive. The post op care in recovery was extremely good. I was in significant pain when I woke up and the nurse caring for me did everything she could to make me comfortable and feel at ease. Once I was awake enough to go to the ward everything was managed smoothly and efficiently. The ward staff gathered round to get me into bed and make me comfortable. The care was of a very high standard. Throughout my stay the staff were professional, caring, helpful and did all they could to make my stay safe and comfortable. I would be happy to work alongside any of them and have any of them on my team.

I have been going to StGeorge Private from day one that it open It has changed a lot They used to serve you your meal with white gloves and had your little fridge I always gone back as I was very happy with everything But this time I was very disappointed as I had a major surgery 6.5 hours I feel that some of the staff where lacking I had to ask more then once to get my jag feel to get my medication I was there for two days My sheets that where blood soil where only change once and not once did anyone came to clean my room. At the day of discharge I was given all this medication that it was not necessary and I did take for 4 days that made me quit sick and I was vomiting that it wasn’t supposed to after my surgery I had to stop the medication as I was not eating and effected my stomach What happened to the old Stgeorge Private? Thank you

I had Breast reconstruction- I had 4 drains put in - when I got to ward nurse said I only had 3 drains , doctor came and showed nurses the 4th drain they missed. I went home with drains and drains were numbered incorrectly. I was suppose to track right breast but I was tracking the back drain. Very poor and very disappointed. They are clearly short staffed as I had to get out of bed to call someone for assistance. This is my third visit this year and I have not been happy with either the care and attention and also the food which is disgusting. They feed sick people food that is not fresh and veggies over cooked and food generally bland. You may as well go private health cover in the Public system , why pay for private , it is clearly not worth it!!!

I had my first baby here. While it wasn’t the worse experience, we will go public for our second as we don’t feel that St George was worth the extra money. Our midwife was brusk and unsupportive while I was in labour (asking me to not scream so loudly), our hospital room was too cold and I was only told about the various classes for new mums about 30 minutes before they were due to start. The nurses were for the most part lovely (particularly the younger ones) but the lady that checked my baby for jaundice each morning was rude and made me cry on my last day (telling a new mum off for making her baby cold at 6am in the morning when she was trying to do skin to skin and breastfeed is not particularly kind.)

  • Rebecca T

Had my first baby there, he had an extended stay in the special care nursery. Had a horrible experience with most of the midwives (there was one amazing Asian midwife who honestly is the only reason I am giving 2 stars), one other midwife missed his jaundice reading which the other midwife left notes for. We had to deal with a horrible senior midwife in the special care nursery who really needs to retire. I had to be readmitted and they forgot I was there - no food/ I had to continuously call to ask to be fed/ get drinks etc. I am pregnant again and will be choosing somewhere else.

Cheapest Private hospital day surgery in the city. Spent total 3 hours in multiple stiff chairs, right up until transferred to wheel chair, to still sit in preop. First bed, operating table. This despite being over 60, bad back, bad hip, bad knee. This is not done at Waratah, Prince of Wales, etc. Beds are not assigned on health of individual who has to endure chair, apparently op length, which in my opinion is irrelevant to no waiting comfort consideration. Would never do day surgery there again, despite closest to my home. Staff were nice, or it would be one star.

Big thanks to all St George private hospital staff from birth unit, my wife had her second birth in front of hospital car park at my car, it was great effort that almost half of midwives (I guess)came down to help delivery which they made very organised and smooth. Special thanks to Nurse Sharon from the reception desk at GL, called first emergency contact to the centre, and also big thanks to midwife Helen and her colleagues who're so lovely and caring for my wife and babies. I can't say enough thank you to all their help and services. Thanks million times

Overall it was a good experience, most of the nurses were good, one of the epidural doctor was 2 hours late and claimed it was "minutes away". My partner was in extreme pain which that doctor didn't seem to care. Time management needs to be reevaluated. If you knowingly cannot make it within the appropriate timeframe, don't lie to patients and nurses. We ended up getting another doctor, but it was 2 hours later with extreme pain. For a private hospital, I was rather disappointed.

We had our first baby there and we couldn’t be happier, we had such an amazing experience, the nurses were absolutely incredible and helped us so much, the doctors were also fantastic and offered us so much comfort. As a first time parents we needed to feel safe and supported and I can say we definitely did, we won’t think twice to use their service for our next one. Highly recommend it

  • Jordan Manuel

The staff at St George private were absolutely incredible! Every single person that took care of me from start to finish was so kind, caring, friendly and professional. Going to the hospital can be nerve racking and scary, however, the treatment from the staff made me feel at ease and well looked after. A big thank you to everyone there, you are all doing an amazing job :)

  • Marilyn Michell

Had surgery 12/7 and the treatment at the hospital is way beyond expectations. Wonderful staff especially Ricky who looked after me and all the other staff from cleaners to lunch ladies. Everyone was wonderful could not have expected better treatment both Public and Private St George Hospitals best I have ever been in - thankyou all so much made horrible surgery bearable.

  • Penny Christie

I have had many procedures at St George Private Hospital and have always had great service from all of the staff. Checking in is quick and easy with very little wait time and all of the nurses are kind and caring. The private rooms are big and spacious and very comfortable. A very good hospital.

  • Anthony Namroud

I want to say thank to everyone at Saint George Private Hospital, especially my surgeon Dr kwok and hia team, you made me feel comfortable an well informed, and everyone including the recovery team and overnight nurses had a welcoming and very positive vibe. Thank you all.

  • Spidey Scoob

I was suicidal and i didn't feel like people cared about me here. One EMT demonstrated how little she cared by slamming the door in my face on purpose after hearing me vent about my issues as a man. Horrendous experience when I needed help.

  • K Stefy

  • Febe yantz

I had a positive experience when giving birth at this hospital. I was served by Dr. Steven Thou, Dr. Laurence Boss, Dr. Ben, assistant, nurse, midwife, and others. They are a solid team and serve well
