Foothills hospital is my favourite hospital!!! I don't like hospitals and obviously don't want to go to one, but when I have had to, I will always ask to go to Foothills Hospital. I have always had the loveliest staff and best care!!! Dr Mrkjonic did surgery on my leg that was broken in three places. She is the best!!!!! And there is a gent in the cast clinic- lovely- can't remember his name but he's good for a joke or two. And all the nurses I have had the pleasure of talking to- all so kind!!! I do pray that Covid is over soon so we can all breathe a little easier and ALL people PLEASE be more careful especially when driving. slow down- make it easier on our care people! Thank you kindly to all the doctors and nurses! We Appreciate you! Be well Merry Christmas and hopefully Covid free new year! read more

The triage nurses seem to be the cog that is stuck. You are not allowed to talk to them as they are triage nurses. The 7 and 9 hour waits for emergency could easily solved by actually listening to patient's problems. Badly broken arm no blood back of the bus. Yer kidding. read more

Foothills is Rife with marginal people who do a substandard job. My mom's been in there on and off for the last couple of years a few months here and a few months there at her care has been substandard at best. My suggestion is if you have the means and ability move your loved one or just your friend away from this facility. They have their own agenda and seem to not care what's best for the patient! Now with this said there are a few shining stars RN, Aaron amazing Dr. QUINT amazing but those are only two of tens of people that have worked on my mom with my mom that are substandard so if you're looking to put your loved one in a facility even short term, I would turn your back on this place and see if you can get them in some other place again a few shining stars, but for the most part substandard folks read more

The nurses in every ward I was in were so kind and compassionate, especially the ones in the ICU, they really helped me feel like I was in good hands. The doctor made a mistake and gave me a pharmaceutical drug salad which caused such severe dyskinesia I couldn't speak, my eyes split in opposite directions and my head spun around popping one of the sutures in my neck, it was like having a stroke and they had to intubate me again to keep me from biting off my own tongue because it fell out and I couldn't put it back in. I now have the deepest sympathies for those effected by Parkinsons because being unable to control muscle spasms is NOT fun. It was a traumatic experience for sure especially since it happened a day after they woke me up from a coma so I had just been extubated. BUT after my rage inducing experience at Rockyview hospital I forgive the doctor that gave me one too many drugs, it's not like he did it on purpose, it was an honest mistake because there's no real way of knowing which drugs will interact in such a way. Also please don't issue anti-psychotics to patients waking up from a coma, I'm not psychotic I'm just not fully awake yet, it was like being in the passenger seat and someone else was driving my car, my subconscious only functions in the fight, flight or freeze response thanks to PTSD so I'm so sorry to the nurse I almost karate kicked in the face I'm not normally like that I swear! And to everyone else get your nails done guuuurl yass queen! I love that I inspired one of the physio ladies to get her nails done, I'm a bad influence lol read more

This review is specifically for the Southern Alberta Adult Home Enteral and Parenteral Nutrition Program. The staff here are so helpful and kind. They gave me their direct phone number and email in case I have any questions or concerns. They follow up with me and are very supportive. I feel well taken care of because of them. The doctor is even letting me change out my own tube since this is what I was used to doing in the states. They go out of their way to ensure patients health and safety. Could not say enough good things about them. The only negative thing about this hospital is the parking fee. It's an immoral money grab. Parking should be free to all hospital staff and their patients. Lost a star because of the parking fee. read more

January 3rd of this year my family received a phone call to go and wait at the Foothills Hospital as a kidney might becoming available for my Dad. He was entering his 8th year of being on hemo-dialysis. In the early hours of January 5th he received a kidney transplant at this location. This hospital performs kidney, pancreas, skin, heart and lung transplants (liver are done in Edmonton). Due to issues involving immune suppression & rejection a standard of extreme cleanliness is required. This was met! The Doctor's and Nurses were extraordinary. Hard-working, kind, competent and patient. There is a lot of information the family needs to absorb in a short amount of time (while tired) and the staff was friendly and accommodating. The food was what you would expect from a mass-serving situation but better than other hospitals we have experienced. Visiting family: There is a pharmacy, cafe, gift shop available on the main floor of the Tom Baker Building. If your "person" is in for long, it makes financial sense to bring your own drinks and snacks. It is like a small city and can be confusing to get around initially. Calgarians are friendly and will gladly help if you ask to be pointed in the right direction. I am taking one star off for two reasons: 1) The bathrooms inside the patient's rooms could be kept a little cleaner. 2) A conversation overheard next to us - where a social worker treated a man who had recently moved to Calgary and had a heart attack - very rudely. I regret not speaking up at the time on his behalf. I have accompanied my Dad to this hospital for transplant purposes, dialysis, check-ups, ER visits...and think highly of it. It has literally saved his life twice and the Transplant Team are living Hero's. Calgary should sleep safer knowing health care like this is available. read more

I had the "privilege" to spend almost 5 days in the hospital waiting for a surgery after an accident. To sum it up: - The technical amenities and equipment was exceptional - The experience with the first emergency care was overall positive. Definitely could be faster, but considering how crippled I was, there was no where to rush - once I was placed to the room, I was pleased and surprised by the care I was given by the nurses night shift. They were so amazing! Thank you for making the stay in the hospital so pleasant for me! - waiting time for the surgery was frustrating, however the result was great and the surgeon was super experienced and nice person. - I left the hospital next day after I faked that I have no pain and did my best to perform some tricks with the crutches - what was absolutely terrible was the food. I assume they provide such a shi**y food to make you get out from the hospital soon. Which is an ok strategy I guess. However, I was surprised how unhealthy the food provided in the hospital can be. - last think to mention - pills and pain killers. I couldn't understand the amount of pain killers served to everyone. Either they got some kickback from the Tylenol distributor or they just wan't to drug you so you don't feel pain and get out from the Hospital soon. I took less than half of them but still could easily consider myself a crackhead knowing the amount of Acetaminophen I got into my system... Overall I am very thankful for the care and help. Really shocked to realize how some patients act and behave when the nurses are trying to help them. Shame on you grumpy complainers and hypochondriacs (of all ages). read more

Do you want to sit in multiple waiting rooms for hours on end? Do you want to feel like you've been forgotten constantly? Would you want to wait up to 6 hours sitting hoping that your heart doesn't crap out before a doctor sees you? Well this is the place! Terrible attitude from the nurses on how long the wait will be, what spot in line you have, and any other general question you have for them. Also I've been here for 6 hours and haven't seen a single janitor and the floors and walls are disgusting!!! The carpet is freshly stained with puke and who knows what else, there is bugs and garbage everywhere on the floors in the hallway. It's just incredible the state the hospital is in. Oh and bedside manner from the doc you can through it out the window, they'll talk about you loudly at the nurses station like you can't hear them. If I could give a zero it would deserve that. read more

We are extremely fortunate to have such a top notch hospital in Calgary. Even though I am a relatively healthy individual, I had a tough run-in with my health in 2005, which had me in the Foothills hospital for 11 days. Yep. 11 days. (no ooo`s and ahh`s. I am FINE now. :) However, I do speak from experience when I say that the doctors and nurses in that facility that I dealt with, genuinely cared about my well being. I was often informed what was happening, and never had to track someone down to find out what was next. Quite frankly, whatever was next, was generally, `proactivelly` happening to me. lol! Also, during my 11 day stay, I had a lot of problems, but luckely, none of them were around my stomach. Like a true ukranian girl, my run of being sick did not affect my appetite, so I mostly waited for breakfast, lunch and dinner. What I didn't expect, was that every morning, I got a little checklist, where I could choose what I wanted to eat based on what they had available. I wouldn't have expected that in a million years! I'm not saying that the meals that came were fancy by any sort, but considering where I was, they were good! Whoever was preparing them cared enough to add some flavor. The staff were amazing. Between the care I received and the fact that the meals were palatable, I am quite impressed with this facility. read more

I'm a relative of a family member who had just recently lost her husband just last night, and our experience at the hospital was absolutely horrible. She was told (because of Covid precautions) that any updates will be given over a phone call, and to visit her husband, she would have to fully dress up (mask, shield and all, which is fine) because of a Covid case across the floor. We were okay with this, so we just stuck to visiting him via FaceTime and calling the nurse's office for updates. Here's the thing; the nurse never, and I mean NEVER gave us a single update over the two weeks we had our relative in the hospital. When we would call in to ask for updates, the receptionist would tell us that the nurses were busy (which is understandable, but we heard this each time) and would definitely call us back... we never got a single call back. NOT EVEN ONE. When our relative passed away, his sons and wife went to say final goodbyes. When they got there, they were instantly asked by a nurse to put on all of the protective equipment, TO SAY GOODBYE TO A DECEASED PERSON. She didn't even think before to provide some consoling or cause of death for them! The lack of empathy and communication these nurses had with us during this two-week nightmare was absolutely ridiculous, and this issue has to be fixed so no other family has to go through the same thing as us. Shame on you! read more

I am reviewing the "Kicking Crab and Corn Chowder" which was one of the two soups of the day today. And oh boy! Whattasoup! I enjoyed every spoonful of this yellowy, creamy, deliciousy tangy spectacle-in -styrofoam! So much so that I only remembered to photograph it after eating a chunk or two, and finished the whole lot before I could crumble my saltines. Whilst the kicking was there like a distant struggle, I poured in a packet of Louisiana Hot Sauce to take it up a notch - that did the trick! $3.95 for a bowlful. Worth it. Especially if they get bigger bowls. UPDATE 07/22/18 - Bigger bowls now available!! read more

Its a hospital Noboday EVER wants to be here, parking is shitty, being a patient is a maze to find things, and the place stinks. That being said I had to stay here for 3 weeks cause I have worthless kidneys, the nurses are wonderful, Doctors are nice and the place is clean. I guess thats what you want at a hospital right? read more

They need to fire the lousy cook who served up the slop they put on patient trays on Friday evening. Hard as a rock chicken slab they claimed was chicken parm. Disgusting g shrivelled up dried potato chunks. Needless to say I went and got my husband a burger but this is ridiculous. Why do people like that get to keep jobs in economically challenged Calgary. Hopefully the poor guy isn't here too long as I can't stay night and day to monitor his food -which is supposed to be a high protein low Carb diabetes diet. read more

Update, foothills has improved their care as soon as they found out my issues were actually serious. Last couple days went well. And care definitly improved. Hated how I had to fight so much to get this, but glad I do have proper care now. Changed from 1 star to 3. ----------------------- This hospital is horrible. No communication, comments from nurses/heal aides. When I first came in barely able to move they put me as able to walk just fine. Had to argue that with nurses for first 2 days. I asked a heath aide if my wife can assist washing my feet and legs in the shower, his comment? "Youre a young guy you can do it yourself. I was in a wheelchair waiting to be taken to a CT scan for 20 minutes (not even picked up by the porter, literally 10 feet from my room) eventually in writhing pain due to being in a sitting position for 20 minutes, I was very obviously so. My nurse was like 10 feet away at a pc, completely ignored me. Everyone passing by, completely ignored me. Nurse at front desk says after they order me a stretcher because I asked for one (before it came) " yeah, but your doing a lot better now". I was pissed. Said "EXCUSE ME????" and she just back pedaled completely. These people dont care about people. Only the first 2 night nurses were caring, Alex & Erin. Daytime ones have been either horrible or indifferent read more

OMG never waste your time with emergency here, unless you're not that sick and have 8 hours to wait. I came here Wednesday night due to a medical emergency. We got here around 11:30pm, was relatively quick through triage, and then I was transferred to another area to wait. There was a couple people who were definitely in a worse situation than me, like missing appendages and some who merely had a cough. Finally after 3-4 hours I couldn't take being in a pain anymore and being stuck in this gross waiting room, asked the nurse how much longer and told me there was still 9 people in front of me, so we left. I ended up back in emergency the next morning at Sheldon Churmin and had a much better experience. read more

I feel a need to write a review to counteract some of the things being said in other reviews. First, there is no way nurses and/or the pharmacy would fail to track the distribution of narcotics, and there are numerous safeguards in place to ensure this. Second, wait times are a function of the government, not the civil service employed at the hospital. Finally, drugs would not be administered prior to meeting a nurse or doctor, so that is not a failure of this hospital specifically. In my recent experience, Foothills has helpful nurses and doctors willing to take the time to explain things. Notwithstanding my injured family member, I had a great experience with the staff at Foothills. read more

I'm normally really understanding, but the Foothills Hospital has pissed me off. To start, majority of the 8th floor nurses are clueless about where anything is, are extremely rude and unwilling to help. My sister and I wandered around for 45 minutes trying to find the office of a doctor who was consulting with my dad on his heart surgery with my mom, our support in that room was wanted. The only helpful people were nurses on the other floor who tried hard and confirmed that the other nurses were wrong g, like we knew. We never got to the room in time. The worst part, my dad has been waiting for a hip replacement surgery for over a year and is in extreme pain. They found d out he needs a triple heart bypass, how long he's been waiting, the doctor says that is terrible and shouldn't be happening, assures my parents that he will be in ASAP for it bc he can't have his hip done until a few months after to make sure his heart can handle it. Comes time for them to call and say what day his bypass is on, my dad has to call them, and find out it's CANCELLED until the FALL! The stress of all of this has put my mom out of commission a month ago and now this?!?! He has been made to wait for so long. Now he can't get his hip until after the new year. This is ridiculous. If he had money he would be helped right away. The doctor even said the wait he has already had is inexcusable. And now they're adding about half a year?! They told him his heart was serious and he needed to get in quick and soon to repair it and then to be able to have his heart surgery. And all of a sudde now he has to wait. So now my parents are forced into being off work longer, while avoiding feeling any stress bc they could both suffer bad heart attacks. The only reason you have two stars is because when I got bit by a dog badly on my hand, the student doctor who helped me was amazing and everyone in emergency was kind and helpful. But how my Dad is getting is treated... so insanely ridiculous. They are out of work and house bound trying to avoid stress to keep their hearts okay and he is INTENSE pain. On 1-10, he's a freaking twelve. My mom is stressed to the point her heart is in danger over this and she has started to suffer panic attacks from all of this. I'm restraining myself from cursing this hospital right out. I'm pissed. This is so unprofessional and never how anything should go. I'm so sorry my parents can't afford to encourage you to do your job and fix him!!! read more

I'm sure this hospital has done a lot of good in some situations. But my experience was horrific. Brain hemorrhage. Diapers unchanged for days. Nurses on breaks for hours. Male nurses changing female patients. Wrong medication, over medication. The staff were asking my family as to my condition. Nobody reads the patients files. Dr. Imtiaz Ali called it a world class facility. It most certainly is not. Not even close. read more

My aunt was admitted to emergency the other night at Foothills and although she was treated with extreme care and thoroughness, I need to make a comment about the place in general. When we came to visit, I thought I was fighting for a parking spot at the Chinook Centre. Are illnesses on sale today? The lobby was full of people I swear there was hardly any room to manoeuvre past the lobby space, there is also a huge area of very old used wheelchairs when you enter the building, I really thought I was at a flea market or something but in the 1970s. Getting to the floor was fine but each floor we passed was like visiting hospitals out of my childhood, just a very old facility with dirty tiled floor and again aged mobile beds. When we got to my aunt's room as much as she had a killer view of the city, her room was cramped and the bathroom that she and her roommate shared was being visited by other patients from other rooms. I was like where am I? I guess I have been spoiled by the super sleek Chumir and the newest freshness of the Rockyview Hospital's new additions where my mother had a room that was huge and akin to a Best Western Hotel room and I am not exaggerating. But in the end, my aunt is now resting, and is well taken care of; after all her health is all that matters. Foothills is great on service but low on moderness. read more

The elevators are crap. Only 2 of the 6 are usually running. Most people press 'down' to ensure they get a ride that eventually goes up. Stupid. The staff are great at this hospital, but the facility in general needs updates, maintenance...some desperately needed love and attention. Where is the funding for healthcare...? read more

I may be a little biased considering this is where I made my grand entrance into the world, but if you ask me, Foothills Hospital is the best of the best. With some of the most highly trained doctor and nurse personnel around, Foothills Hospital is leaps and bounds above other hospitals I've visited. Plus a couple of years ago, I had wrist surgery and the #1 surgeon that was recommended to me was based out of Foothills. I never look forward to visiting hospitals because more times than not it marks a sombre occasion, but knowing the level of expertise that constitutes the staff at Foothills, it definitely helps ease the tension. Thanks for looking after me since day 1. read more

I didn't like the nurses there. Well I liked couple who were I think from East Africa. The white nurses and Philippines. We're very lazy and disrespectful. They were more focused on socializing with each other than helping me. The African nurses were very hard working and caring! I will not go here anymore will not be under those lazy no good nurses. read more

I'd give the hospital at least a 4 star for the help they give patients and five for the staff - but this review is for the parking conditions. The site is undergoing massive renovation and so Step #1 was to remove all easily accessible parking for patients and visitors with limited mobility, fail to put up sufficient guide arrows in the rabbit warren of tunnels through the buildings and fail to have directional indicators for pedestrians from the West Parking to the main building. The West Parking is poorly lit for less mobile friends and family. Although the lighting in the parking areas is like high noon in comparison with the stairways. The pay before using system is of no use to emergency visitors who have 1/3 hr to 10 hour wait to sign up/wait to see doctors/wait to be treated times. True you can buy weekly or monthly passes. At least advise that there are parking machine in the Tom Baker, SSB or main Bldg and Emerg so you can get more time on your ticket. One might almost thing the strategy is to make you overestimate the time you need so the spaces can be "overbooked" thanks to those folks who get to leave quicker than they thought. Was talking to a spouse of a cancer patient who had to leave is wife at the door, search for a parking spot, and walk back, for half an hour as the patient drop off areas are inadequate. Take a cab if you have a non-oozing or bleeding reason to go. You'll save wear and tear on your nerves, realize a saving if you count the TVM and be in a better mood as you wait. read more

Ths place pisses me off every time I come here. My wife is currently undergoing angioplasty. I was not allowed to see her before the procedure. I was told to wait in a waiting room and call the nurses station in a couple of hours. So I did just to find out if I could see her yet. Nope still having the procedure. I asked if someone would come to get me when it's over. Nope try calling us later. REALLY!!! No compassion for the family at all. I'm sitting here worried sick and they offer no help. They may be good at what they do here but they don't care about the family. Just call us later. That is disgusting! !! I finally did find out my wife was out of the procedure and back in the ward. Know how I found out. She sent me a text herself. Otherwise I probably would have had to wait for who knows how much longer. read more

My wife and I delivered our son here on May 03 and I really cannot say enough good things about the doctors, nurses and basically everyone we came into contact with up on the 5th floor. The doctors were all kind, professional and just amazing! The nurses and lactation consultants were Godsends as well! They check on you non stop are always quick to come when you hit the help button and are always happy to patiently walk through anything you're struggling with as many times as you need. The hospital decor seems a little dated and could use some renos.. But this is a hospital, not a spa. Parking here sucks but they are in the process of building additional lots. First world problems. These small annoyances are completely made up for by the competence and generosity of the folks who make up the staff. If anyone is planning to give birth here, you came to the right place! read more

Went to the blood lab about a week ago for my blood work instead of my regular place because was there for another appointment thinking i'd save a trip.......Well have to say what a horror! Such a dirty, run down place! Cotton swabs, elastic arm bands laying on the floor and window sills, rude staff! After she was done my blood work she even threw the elastic band on the floor! Hard to believe it's legal to run such a facility the way they do! Is the health board even aware of this shit hole? .....WOW.... read more

Parking situation could be better but I like my MD and staff are helpful with booking.

When my father was hurt they were not helpful at all. They were in such a rush to get him out of there and there was hardly anyone waiting whatsoever, and the painkillers he was given for his broken collar bone were not even working by the time they sent him back. It was such a rough ride home. For the past few days he's been in so much pain and it turns out he has two broken ribs too. They did not even notice this and I am certainly not impressed. Now after two days he had to go back, the ribs hurting his lungs, he waited two hours in the emergency room at 3 am and they did not even take a look at him, while in serious pain. Turns out that his broken ribs had punctured his lungs by the time he finally went back, and the first time they stuck a tube into him, it hit his kidney, so they had to take it out and DO IT AGAIN. ARE YOU KIDDING ME!?!? Not to mention this hospital looks like the 70's threw up all over it. It needs serious, SERIOUS renovations. I'm very very disappointed in this. If it were the states they would be sued. I suggest making your way all to Canmore if you need medical assistance. And that's pathetic. read more

If I could give a negative million I would. I dont know if its a lack of respect, pure stupidity, lack of common sense or racism, but the whole thing was a complete cluster f***. I dont like to swear but how do you want me to react when they put my fiance's life at risk? Lets start with the wait time of getting in to coming out going up to 11 f****** hours! All that for a sling, some pain killers and a doctor's note. The nurses were practically useless as I can do their job in 5 minutes. They walked as if the world could wait, but they had to take their sweet time doing nothing to get paid. They saw my fiance crying in pain, even to the point of making eye contact with her only to be ignored. Once I was finally allowed to go in and I saw her in pain did they do something after confronting them into why my fiance has not yet been seen by a doctor (keep in mind she was finally admitted after 4 hours of waiting (for no reason as the emergency room was pretty empty) and I was allowed in after 3 hours making up 7 hours long so far). After asking a nurse for someone to finally look at her or even clean her open bleeding wound; I was shrugged to the side with the response of "you dont have to do anything about the wound, it takes days for an infection to occur", followed by a that nurse walking away and being ignored for 2 more hours. Okay lets break down this response. Yeah no f****** s*** does it take days for an infection to occur thank you for the fun fact that everyone knows, thats not my point you genius. The point was the lack of respect for a patient that they couldnt even do that very simple thing. Only after reminding them of the open wound in her arm right before walking out did they actually do their job and cleaned it up. 9 hours in did we actually get an x-ray only to wait another hour for a new x-ray because surprise surprise, the last one was useless. After all that cluster f*** and lack of respect did we managed to get out after 11 hours. DONT EVER GO TO THIS PLACE, THE PEOPLE ARE INCOMPETENT AND USELESS. This hospital made me want to be a nurse because its like everyone is trying to say "become a nurse, youll sit on your a** all day and get paid 30 dollars an hour for doing nothing". We are now at Rockyview waiting to see another doctor as they didn't give her a cast, which for the type of bone she fractured it needs one. read more

My mother was admitted to the Foothills Hospital last Wednesday. She is 94 years old but with a mind as sharp as a pin. The nicest person you could meet. After 10 days no one had given her a shower. No one had brought her a face cloth or towel to wash her hands and face. They lost her cane which has a lot of sentimental value. They dressed her the night before she was to released and told to sleep in her clothes. They were useless at taking blood. My mom has the mobile lab come to her home every second week and sometimes she goes to the Calgary Lab Service in Riverbend. They have no trouble at all but the nurses in the Foothills just can't seem to get blood. They ended up taking it from her hand, which is not only painful but her hand turned almost completely black. Kim, one of the nurses was great. The rest were terrible. Absolutely no care at all. read more

I can't believe we have to pay taxes to support an arrogant bureaucracy who can lower themselves to return a phone call to resolve a problem. A friend of mine, and also my employer from Oyen, Alberta experiences chest pains while in the Calgary area. He drove himself to the Foothills Hospital and parked his vehicle north of the emergency department. As soon as he went into emergency, he was assessed and placed on electronic monitoring, then admitted relatively quickly to the Cardiac Unit 91. He managed to get a message to me the next day, and I went in to retrieve his vehicle. There was a parking infraction notice on the windshield. I went to the information desk and was given a phone number and was told the office hours for parking were from 0800 - 1600 hr on weekdays. As it was later than that, the next morning I phoned the number to get a message machine telling me to leave a phone number and they would return my call. After three messages left, I contacted the regional parking office, who said they would contact the Foothills office and have them call me. A day later, nothing has happened. Oyen, Alberta is 327 km from the Foothills Hospital. There message now says I must attend in person at their office to resolve parking issues. Isn't bureaucracy wonderful?? Third call placed today, They still haven't returned a phone call. read more

I worked here for a year. Riding the elevators was the bane of my existence. And the removal of Good Earth Cafe was probably the worst thing that happened to me in 2011. read more

The doctors and nurses and admin staff have always been helpful and professional to me.

Having just being released from there, I have to comment on the treatment that I received. It was was excellent. I have taken my relatives to several American Hospitals in Ohio and California, and the treatment I received was certainly equal if not better. The staff of unit 37 were very professional, and worked very hard to save my life, so I must give them a big thank you and hope that they know how much I appreciated all their hard work to help me get well! read more

I delivered my baby fen 6 2017. I have to say thesaurus are extremely friendly funny and kind. They made my stay pleasant the only thing I d like was the food. My baby was well looked after and cared for. Another issues I have is an extra bed for the partners Other than that they made my first baby experience awesome read more

Empathetic staff, hygienic facilities, timely service and lots of parking. What more can you ask for.

Great Hospital to deliver a baby. I've delivered my baby there in November, 2016. I've read lots of negative reviews about the hospital and about labor and delivery unit as well, and did not feel comfortable to think that my baby should be born there and I'm not able to change the hospital. But the staff is amazing (nurses, doctor, admission team, EVERYONE). If I have another child in the future this will be the only hospital I want to go. It was my second baby and I do compare my first and second experiences, and the second one was great. read more

Oh Man I spent almost eight months in this place. The food was awful, mostly cheap meat covered in a horrible sauce. I lost 100 pounds during my time there. I couldn't eat the food and lived only the milk. You are right about it being dirty. I got an infection after heart surgery and my sternum had to be removed. The food there is disgusting. The same catering does the Rockyview so the food there is just as bad. read more

Pretty terrible emergency room care. I don't know what doctor I saw, but it seems like she didn't bother to read anything I had told any nurses. She was completely useless, I can't write a specific review, but I don't like the possibility of being accused of slander anyway. Brought in an intern/resident, didn't seem like she felt like teaching anything that day. And I was ready to put my faith into young, female, medical grads. Nurses, as usual, are great :) read more

I went to visit my bf at the special services part of the foothills hospital it was so clean in that part of the hospital more clean than rocky view and the nurses that took care of my boyfriend did a good job keeping up with changing his iv and making sure he was okay the only problem is the nurses in unit 46 like to stand around and talk when your trying to find rooms either than that cleanest hospital I've been to in calgary read more
