My father was taken by ambulance to the ER, the admission process fairly smooth, from entering to getting to his room, about 9 hours. Most of the nurses were extremely competent and caring. Thank you to all the staff & nurses who took care of my father so well. I thank the housekeping team, emergency room staff and the entire 5th floor team. Thank you and God bless each of you who directly and indirectly took care of him so well. The building itself is clean and professional, no issues I can see of. read more

I brought my daughter to the pediatric ER last night (9/20/26) at 11:30 PM, and the initial level of care we received was completely unacceptable. After nurses took her temperature (100.5) and swabbed her for COVID and RSV, we were placed in a room and utterly abandoned for three hours. During those three hours, not a single nurse or doctor came in to check on her, provide fever reducers, or give us an update. The only person who managed to walk through our door was registration--proving that collecting payment was a higher priority for this hospital than monitoring a sick child. I fully understand how triage works, but leaving a child in a room with zero clinical check-ins is medical neglect, not triaging. The only reason this review isn't a zero is Dr. O'Toole. When he finally came in after three hours, he was phenomenal. He took the situation seriously, immediately ordered the nurses to re-check her temperature, and went to strictly address the staff's failure to monitor her. By that time, her fever had spiked to a dangerous 102.7. It was only after Dr. O'Toole intervened and reprimanded the staff that the nurses finally started acting like they cared and administered medication. Dr. O'Toole is the only competent asset this hospital has going for them. The nursing staff and administrative process failed my daughter completely. read more

On a Sunday morning, when all walk-in clinics were still not open, I visited the ER. It was empty, I explained my itch, explained the walk-in clinic situation, and inquired if they could substitute or if I should wait another hour until one opened. No problem they said. An hour later when I left, turns out I had bed bug bites from a visit in Georgia. One month later, they changed my original bill from $900.00 to over $5400.00! After 3 attempts to correct this, they refuse to listen to the absurdity that they charged over $5400 for bed bug bites. I have paid it but will never advise anyone to visit this clumsy, overpriced service. read more

On July 11th the AdventHealth ER in Belleview wanted to admit me to the AdventHealth hospital in Ocala for Acute Kidney Injury. I refused to go because about eight months ago I was in that hospital, admitted through the ER for an MRI, and the hospital refused to treat my chronic pain with the hydrocodone I am prescribed by pain management doctor and would only offer me Tylenol. I was in such excruciating pain that I left the hospital AMA in the middle of the night to go home and take my pain medication. Over this past week my symptoms got worse so I went to the ER in Ocala. I was admitted with Acute Kidney Injury, Pulmonary Edema, and Anemia. Many of my prescriptions are written for specific brands or specific generics, so I brought my own medications, in the pharmacy bottles, because I knew the hospital might not have the exact ones I need. Upon admission, no medication reconciliation was performed. Hospital staff took my home medications but refused to give them to me. I was told the ER doctor did not enter my medication orders correctly into the system, and that the ER doctor had left and could not fix the orders. I was told the pharmacy would not "put their labels on them" and I was told that the on-call doctor was not calling back, and when the nurse practitioner arrived, they also would not correct the medication orders. As a result, with the exception of being given Ivabradine and Ambien that evening, my medications were all withheld for 19 hours. In the morning when I realized they were not going to give me my hydrocortisone I had to make a difficult decision. Hydrocortisone is essential for me because I have adrenal insufficiency/HPA axis dysfunction. Missing a morning dose can cause an adrenal crisis--a life-threatening emergency that can cause severe low blood pressure, shock, confusion, vomiting, and even death if not treated promptly with steroids. I had to leave the hospital AMA, so they would return my medications to me, only because I needed to take my hydrocortisone to avoid this potentially fatal complication. The ER doctor told me he was going to temporarily increase my furosemide overnight to treat the pulmonary edema and difficulty breathing. This medication was also withheld. Then the cardiologist told me that I needed to stop the furosemide. I told him that I have been stable on this medication for over 20 years and without it I end up in the ER with difficulty breathing. Since my symptoms are new, and I have recently been diagnosed with autonomic dysfunction, it is very unlikely that the furosemide is the cause. I have documented autonomic dysfunction (diagnosed by abnormal tilt table testing). This affects my blood vessel tone and can cause fluid to shift out of my blood vessels into my tissues (a phenomenon called "third spacing" or capillary leak). Because of this, I can have: Low blood volume inside my vessels ("dehydrated"): This leads to low blood pressure, dizziness, and can worsen kidney function (as seen with my recent Acute Kidney Injury). Too much fluid in my tissues ("fluid overloaded"):This causes swelling (edema) and, in my case, even mild pulmonary edema (fluid in the lungs) as seen on my recent chest x-ray. This means I can be "dehydrated" and "fluid overloaded" at the same time, and standard advice about fluid or diuretic use may not apply. My treatment needs to be individualized and carefully balanced. My symptoms have not resolved. I still have Pulmonary Edema, Acute Kidney Injury, and Anemia and I'm at home having difficulty breathing. But I cannot return to the hospital because they will again withhold my necessary medications, putting me at risk for even more severe complications and they clearly do not know how to treat Autonomic Dysfunction so their treatment plan could further harm me. Is this the standard of care that you aim for? If so, I have a suggestion. Since the hospital plays a lullaby over the PA system every time a baby is born, you should also be required to play a funeral dirge over the PA system every time you kill a patient! I most certainly will be filing complaints with the Florida Agency for Healthcare Administration and The Joint Commission. read more

The staff in cardiac care 6th floor are awesome. All the people in the chemical stress test nuclear medicine dept. Are super but just like back in the 70's and 80's the hospital formerly known as Munroe regional is falling apart. I supposedly had the best room in the hospital room 609. It had a beautiful view, but nothing else in the whole room worked. The table was cracked and the laminate was peeling off. There was no shower head in the shower. The lamp was taken apart. There were no towels wash cloths or soap. It was absolutely disgusting. I will never go back to that hospital as long as I live. They used to say Monroe was where you go to die. Well, I still believe that to be true. The staff is great, but they need to tear that place down and start over. read more

I don't even want to click one star. The way the nurses are treating my partner is a disgrace. Doctor signed off on showers as much as possible as that is the only thing was relieving his pain & nausea. Shift changes occurred and night shift is completely pushing him aside and disregarding that the doctor said he may shower at his pleasure. With a stern and judging voice, she told him to wait as she's busy with other things. I offered to wrap his arm myself and they ignored. We've been here for almost a week with no answers. After this experience, I have so much motivation to change my whole life career to go to nursing school and actually be there for people in time of need. read more

I had an emergency and was admitted upstairs floor 5, in the Neuro unit. I can't say enough good things about the professionalism and kindness of all the staff. From the doctors, to the nurses, and even the healthcare assistants. Dr Moullette was wonderful to deal with, caring, thorough, and you can tell she wants the best for all her patients. Big shout out to Shante, a nurse, and also Morgan, a nurse. Shante was very helpful, kind, and goes above and beyond for all her patients. Another staff member who was the sitter in my room, Frankie, is a shining star of an employee. Always making sure I was comfortable and assisting me to the restroom with an IV behind me, probably 10 times a day, and never once complaining. I've had a lot of experiences with hospitals throughout my life, and must say Advent Health Ocala is the greatest and most qualified hospital I've ever stayed at in Florida. Definitely recommend to anyone during an emergency or for any other healthcare needs. Thanks very much for all your help and may God bless all of you! read more

I compare this hospital to Alligator Alcatraz. The care is excellent, the communication is non existent, the Case Management comes in saying you are being transferred to Rehab since Thursday before Labor Day. Then Labor Day came, it appears the room for me has been taken. Obviously they aren't going to hold a room for me and loose revenue. The Case Manager on her visit, dropped to her knees and began praying for God to enter my heart. Have told her supervisor and no response. It was like nut household, especially when she told me her name Anna is an anogram spelled forward and backward. Wow! read more

Some nurses are great some are just there for a paycheck and get attitudes when you need something. When you tell them you're in pain they act like you are just wanting meds to get high. Had some nurses lie to the doctor just to get meds changed. I had a feeding tube put in my stomach and told them the wound was infected before I left they told me it is supposed to look like the way it was only for me to come back and be admitted a week later because it was infected. Not to mention the surgeon that did the procedure had to go back and fix it when he put it in. I kept telling them I was in excruciatingly pain from it and all I was told was it's supposed to be painful and sore. Finally made them give me a ct scan to show it wasn't in my stomach. I would not recommend this hospital to anyone read more

I would give a -5* if possible! Worst medical care ever, and I'm Not young! From the emergency room to the techs. Example: was taken to the ER by ambulance with a busted up, DISLOCATED Anckle. The ER Never bothered to ckeck the foot thats ATTACHED to that ankle, which IS damaged, PERMANENTLY!! They are a joke of health Care, and a bigger joke that they consider themselves as CHRISTIAN!! The oath of "DO NO HARM" doesn't mean a dang thing to ANYONE employed by Advent. From the Drs with offices located in the hospital buildings, to the Blind technicians that send outside Drs BLURY MRI images, that are completely a waste of the funds took to take the images to the paycheck they gave to the INCOMPETENT TECHNICIAN that took the MRI!!!! Advent healthcare has Permanently, physically messed me up from head to toe, LITERALLY!! And of course the pain I'm now Constantly in doesn't matter to Any Healthcare Dr in this MORALLY REPREHENSIBLE JOKE OF A STATE!!! I have health issues that Will go Untreated cuz I'm petrified this place either kills me, or causes me to suffer with more of their PISS POOR Med Treatment!! They Need to be Paying Me for the EMOTIONAL DISTRESS, and the PAIN AND SUFFERING Advent healthcare has caused me!!! I will never walk into another Advent again!! Matter of fact if anyone wants to join in I'll start a class action lawsuit against them but of course I can't do that alone!!! And this is what I think of Advent healthcare and their joke of their "Christian" "Do no harm" Medical Treatment: DISGUSTING!!! INHUMANE!!!! Here's a pic of what I have to do to my toes for the rest of my life from the damage that Advent COULDN'T BE BOTHERED TO CHECK IN THE ER!! This happened back in 2021. Even the bruising wont go away. Nerves are messed up. Can't even touch it without hurting. Not to mention that Every pair of shoes has to be stretched for that foot! And also one of their ENT Dr's, completely Deformed my nose after a SIMPLE a deviated septum surgery! How many a deviated septum surgeries are done in this country a day? And I get some frickin QUACK!! Now need bone grafts off my ribs to fix my ugly nose!! It's 100% worse now than when I went in for the surgery. How do you have so much scar tissue from one surgery that I have to have bone grafts to fix this deformed mess??? ADVENT HEALTHCARE SYSTEM NEEDS TO BE SHUT DOWN!!!!!!!!!

Not the place to go to if your infant has a fever at 10:30 PM. Four hours with only vitals being checked, we decided to just get up and walk out. We respect ourselves and our children way too much. The care was zero awareness. read more

This is a hospital of horrors. Everyone I know who has gone here has been harmed or killed.

I am warning you now, DO NOT GO HERE. HCA is right behind Advent, go there!! read more

Subpar care from post op to discharge, the intake prior to the outpatient surgery for my dad went smooth, competent nursing staff, the pre op nursing staff was pleasant, competent and very communicative. I even commented how nice and easy all this was going. Following the procedure the post op nursing staff was not professional, she called me to tell me he was in pain and she medicated him but would check protocol and hopefully he would get to the next level of recovery soon. I would be contacted. The next level post op recovery nurse never contacted me, full of excuses, apologized once I reached out but more excuses. I do not think the care my Dad received was throrough enough, he had a PT visit, she said he was good even though he could not ambulate unassisted and was wobbly, the OT came to the room, he was sleeping and they never came back, we received minimal information upon discharge and when I requested an additional therapy be added for discharge I was told it would be, at this point I am not sure if that happened. I added he would be recovering in a different location and needed that change noted for the Home Health care. I was told "they" would contact me and I could change it then. Clarification was difficult as there was a language barrier with the nurse. It has been nothing but frustration and blame game between the doctors office and health care since. I would not recommend Advent at all after this experience. We are still waiting for home health care on day 4 post surgery. read more

Sitting in the Emergency Room unable to breathe for the last 5 hours. The monitor is going off every second because it became unhooked two hours ago, but none of the staff has noticed it yet. I'm beginning to wonder if I will make it out of here alive. I've gotten nothing to help my breathing and nothing for pain. You can put on the call light but no one will respond. If I could I would get up and walk out, unfortunately I can't move. read more

My friend was admitted to the hospital following a fall in her apartment. While there, the staff required her to remove her clothing. She immediately asked where they put her dress and every day thereafter for 3 days. No one knew where her dress was or even cared that this had been a gift to her that she treasured. Somehow, the staff had managed to return her undergarments and shoes to her, but not her dress, so she had nothing to wear home but a hospital gown. When we asked the hospital to issue a check to replace it with a similar dress on sale ($44), we were told that we would not be reimbursed, that the staff is not responsible for patient's clothing! I guess if it's not their belongings, it doesn't matter that it had value to the patient? Don't go here if you want to leave with your belongings! read more

I am giving them 1 star because is the lowest I can go but they deserve 3 minus 0. I went to their Bellevue ER clinic and for urine blood test and CT scan they billed my medicare Freedom Health insurance the amount of more than $30,000.00. Am not lying just for the CT scan only they charged $1,600.00 this means that charged my insurance more than $28,000.00 for a blood and urine tests and for the couple of other things they did for me. God forbid if I ever have to go back to an Emergency room here in Ocala I will go to any one except for any Advent clinic including they urgent cares. Went to one of their centra care at SR 200 February 3 thy did a urine test and told me they were sending out to check if there was an infection. the results came back positive feb-13 and they never wrote or called to let know about it. I was told about this by the doctor that took care of me on April 11 when I visited their emergency Room in Bellevue, FL. read more

Of course this is just my opinion. I would like to start by saying I take social media reviews very seriously. I try to put as many reviews out as possible. This one is truly heartbreaking. This is actually my 3rd inpatient stay.All three stays have been with the last 5 months. Admission #1 I got pneumonia from a very sick interventional radiologist at the hospital. I went for a test and ended up catching this bug from him. I was admitted for 8 days. They put me on the 6th floor. Clearly this was a floor that no one had regard for. I guess it's where they sent people to die. I am not exaggerating when I tell you that my own 75 yr old mother made my bed and even cleaned the floors in my room. Not once did housekeeping come in. My family had to beg for ice water for me. One afternoon I laid in my own bloody bed for quite some time. Again my family fought to get this handled. I also had to be rushed back to the OR for a second surgery because of a "defective catheter ". The care received was well below any standard and when the family would go to speak with someone, the administration would yes them and move on. Shame on you ADVENT!! Admission #2 Had no choice, locked in because of dialysis (Davita) Went to ER due to chest congestion. Once again I am admitted. This time they find I need a heart stent. Heart stent put in, but chest congestion not really ever addressed. I was coughing my head off. The staff was quite difficult and none of them went above and beyond to do anything extra. I am a dialysis patient, stuck on a on a stent floor. The hospitalist Doctor was only interested in making sure that they released me never mind the fact I was still sick. Admission#3 Admission number three came only a couple days after I was discharged from the second admission. I was admitted this time for a GI bleed as well as the same problem as above. Coughing my head off. But I was admitted to the fifth floor this time which is the dialysis unit.Wouldn't you know it, the same hospitalist, Who discharged me was the admitting doctor for my third hospital stay. We did ask him to be reclused. This was a rough day for me because my hemoglobin had dropped very low and I required a blood transfusion for a second time. This seems to be the new norm in my life. I want to commend the nursing staff Paul and Kelly were fantastic. They were very attentive and caring and just seemed to really care about what was happening in your plan of care. They were certainly on top of things and was always there to lend a hand. After several days of being in the hospital I was still no closer to feeling any better. The only difference was is that I had been given blood. It's obvious to this reviewer that no one cares why I'm losing blood. Advents Hospitalist Group says, "cant help you with your anemia, we have no answers". check out please there is nothing more we can do. A 4th admission is possible but I suppose dying will be much easier. read more

Blown away by my experience here. I had a traumatic labor experience with Loving Arms birth center in Ocala. I transferred myself to this hospital and it was an extraordinary blessing! From the moment I walked in at the front desk to the moment I walked out, pushed in a wheelchair, I was taken such good care of. Every single person; the lady at front desk, ALL of the nurses, the doctor, the anesthetist, the person who wheeled me out to my car...were all so kind, helpful, and I felt like were family/angels looking out for me and my baby. They all went above and beyond to take care of me and I was immensely at ease by friendliness. As funny as it sounds, I felt like I was on vacation in their care and felt sad to leave when it came to it. I can't express enough how grateful I am for this experience. And I will definitely be having my next kids at this same place. Thank you everyone and God bless you all! read more

ER visit Oct. 17, 2024. this is the worst hospital I have ever gone to. I went in with severe stabbing pain. As soon as I arrived I have a urine sample. I saw a nurse never asked what medicines I take if I have taken anything. Put in a room. I showed NP were I was hurting . I was given 1 pain pill. I Sat and waited. She finally came back and no changes. Another male nurse came with me a oral medication and a pill. I had to ask what are you giving me. He left and shut the door and saw anyone ever come back to check on me. I walked in hallway to try to find anyone. I told the lady I have been waiting. She grab papers took I out of arm. Still feeling the same as before I came in. As walking out an elderly lady was in the bare floor yelling someone help me. Again no one around. No one helped this poor lady. I left hospital no different than when I came in. My dog gets better treatment at the vets office. I will die at home next time. pitiful hospital. Don't go there. read more

I have a kidney stone on the move. It is extremely painful, probably an 8 or 9 on a scale of 10. I went to the emergency room of AdventHealth in Ocala tonight. Usually, kidney stones are triaged at the top of the list because of the severity of the pain. But not here. I sat for 3 hours in the waiting room without any pain relief. The waiting room was almost completely empty so I can only assume that they had a load of ambulance cases in the back. After 3 hours in intense pain, I had to leave. No one told the people waiting that there was going to be a long wait. In fact, the triage nurse at the front desk barely looked up. Now I'm home trying to get some relief from a hot shower, a heating pad and some Motrin. read more

The worst hospital I ever seen and visiting before ,super old and any of the nurses wash their hand at all when they Come to the patient room,I had my mom there with a kidney stone surgery and it was horrible ,they don't accept the family to stay the night because of course there is no conditions at all for the family member and the night that my mom stays ,she calls all the nurses during the night and nobody came to her room until she start screaming so they came and they came with a bad attitude,in my opinion this hospital should do a remodeling or close because is super bad bad ,and very dirty ,the funny thing is that I'm front of this hospital there is a another hospital that is regional ocala hospital and yes this hospital is super great I wonder why they have this hospital in from of the advent because since the advent is horrible of course they need to construct another hospital. read more

Regarding Maternity/Delivery/OR : I had my daughter here 7 years ago. Nothing really stood out back then. After reading recent reviews, I was a little apprehensive about having my son here because people didn't have the best things to say. But my OR nurses and the nurses on the Labor and Delivery/Maternity floor were ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. Before, during and right after my surgery Melanie was very attentive and aware of my needs. She's been there for 12 years and has definitely got it going on. The anesthesiologist was on point (literally) and had a calm demeanor. Being a patient in a hospital is pretty unnerving, no matter why you are there. So having people like that with me calmed me down a bit. As I said, I had a C Section, so I was in constant pain and my whole world was turned upside down. But my girls took such good care of me, my son and my husband. Laura, my AM nurse, is truly made to be a nurse. She's positive, knowledgeable, passionate and most of all genuinely kind. She truly cares about her patients and it really shows. And although it was painful, she kept me laughing the whole time. Frances, my PM nurse, was extremely bright, sweetly mannered, answered all of my hundred thousand questions and was extremely careful with handling our son. The CNA's Courtney and Brenda were attentive, funny and extremely compassionate. They were so patient and helpful and I couldn't have progressed as quickly as I did without them. All of the other workers on the floor were smiling and always greeted us when we walked by. I was extremely excited to go home after two days, but at the same time I almost wanted just one more day! This is our last baby, but maybe we will have just ONE more. :-D read more

I arrived at 6:30 p.m. today any emergency appointment here. Triage very quickly call me back and drew my blood and took an x-ray. I did finally see a doctor who told me I had a real fractured rib and ordered me a pain medication and the CT scan to ensure no internal bleeding.4 hours later I'm still waiting to be taken for the scan in the emergency department with little to no care. I had to go to the bathroom so badly that I started was going to have an accident. Call light may as well have been unplugged. I had to crawl out of the hospital bed at the foot. In excruciating pain and anxiety. And then I couldn't get back into bed because both rails were up like a Crib I then had to go out into the hallway! and ask the nurse (WHO WAS RIGHT THERE AT THE NURSES STATION) sitting three feet away from my door for help that came to bed after having taken myself to the bathroom against medical advice. SHOCKED. I WILL NEVER COME HERE AGAIN read more

I wish I could review with zero stars, $500 a minute for "OR" services, billing nearly $57,000 for a 1 hour simple outpatient procedure when a good faith estimate at time of service was less than a tenth that. Talk about abusing the system. While the medical care was fine, they are way beyond "usual and prevailing rates". The same procedure at Mt. Sinai lists for a maximum negotiated rate under $6000, same with Cleveland Clinic. Where does a central Florida hospital get to charge ten times that. Complaint to the state and setting up time with the Orlando Sentinel for an investigative story may be forthcoming. read more
