The entire staff is friendly, professional, and efficient, and they always make the donation process smooth from check-in to checkout. A special thank you to Destin, the manager.

She leads by example, genuinely cares about both donors and her team, and always takes the time to make everyone feel welcome and appreciated. If you're looking for a place to donate blood, I highly recommend this location. They value your time, treat you with respect, and make giving back an easy and positive experience.

Many of the staff members are who answer the phone act like they are put out, do not want to answer the phone, they hang up on you in mid-sentence when asking for help or answers to questions. Both the Manager and Assistant Mangers at this location do not do their jobs and let their staff act immature and like the location is a Day Care Center. The Manager also allows for some staff members to be vindictive, lie and make verbal threats of violence towards donors they do not like. This company also has a reputation for hiring Sex Offenders, Sexual Predators, Liars and Thieves at it's various locations.

The waiting room was very busy, but don't let that discourage you--the process moved along efficiently. One of the kiosks wasn't working, but there wasn't a sign letting people know, so several people kept trying to use it. Hopefully they'll put up a notice to avoid the confusion. Overall, the visit was well organized despite the number of people. And one final tip: be sure to use the hand sanitizer on your way out! No one likes going to these places so just make sure you fill out everything ahead of time!

The first day I kept calling my mom but she wasn't answering which worried me ( she was on a lot of pain meds) so I called the nurse ( Mo) and he answered. Went to check on my mom and asked why I wasn't answering. He assured me my mom was ok which made me feel better. All the day nurses that took care of my mom were great ( Erin, Jackie, Mo, Dana, Angie, Melissa) I slept there for the week and a half she was there. The night nurses were ok, only came in to take vitals, give medication and clean her ( I got the feeling that they weren't too thrilled when they had to clean her) which is understandable but my mom had a fractured tail bone so she was limited to what she could do but I'm still thankful for them. Only thing was that I wish the food was better. Every week was the same thing I kind of wish they would change it up a bit & also the case manager I wish she would communicate a little bit more and guide us but nope one can only hope

Excellent visit I had a slip and fall and broke my knee!…read moreWas referred to Dr. Piza he was excellent! Through and plain talking. I was surprised that I had to stay overnight as it was an elective surgery but he and the pre op team explained it clearly. The care that I received in pre op was best in class. I was very subconscious as I am on the younger side of being a senior so a slip and fall and extensive recovery is very humbling. Any way the entire pre op team made me feel comfortable and I started joking as to what to tell people as how I fell as a slipping in a parking loot is not interesting! (My issue) Everyone was great and especially the nurse that was near my age (pink scrubs blond hair) everyone made me at ease including Mary the anesthesia! Recovery was just as impressive Danielle was my nurse very nice and my nurses Darlene, Kayleah an David were best in class! Highly recommend this place and Angelica lives up to her name!

They were 45 minutes behind with my appointment, I asked the tech how he was and if this was his normal. He said yes. I asked how many techs were there and a lady from another room yelled we have 4 techs and are all working. I was shocked that I couldn't even speak to my own tech. (I wasn't speaking condescendingly, it's health care.) After that my labs were complete and I left. The only positive I can say is that it is very clean inside where they draw the labs.

Right in front of Baptist Health Bethesda Hospital East, you'll find one of Florida's distinctive…read moreblue historic markers--part of the state's Historical Marker Program, one of the Division of Historical Resources' most popular public history initiatives. These markers highlight important people and places throughout Florida, adding depth and meaning to everyday locations you might otherwise overlook. This particular marker (F-785), installed in 2013 by the Robert Neff Family, the Delray Beach Historical Society, and the Florida Department of State, tells the story of how this area's healthcare system came to be. The surrounding community was first settled in the late 1890s, when medical care was extremely limited. For decades, a small number of doctors and midwives served the area, and the nearest hospital was 18 miles away in West Palm Beach. Critically ill patients often had to be transported by horse and buggy or even fire engine--journeys that were sometimes fatal. In 1947, local civic leaders and physicians formed the Gulfstream Hospital Association to address this urgent need. After years of effort--raising funds, establishing a taxing district, and securing land--the 70-bed Bethesda Memorial Hospital opened on February 9, 1959. Named after the biblical Pool of Bethesda, symbolizing healing, the hospital began with 32 doctors and six dentists. Its first patient underwent an emergency appendectomy, and its first baby was born just a week later. The hospital quickly grew, expanding within six months of opening. Today, as Bethesda Hospital East, it is part of Baptist Health and has evolved into a 401-bed, full-service medical center with more than 500 physicians across 40 specialties. It offers 24/7 emergency care, a Level III neonatal intensive care unit, and advanced services in areas like cancer, heart and vascular, orthopedics, and women's health. The facility also features minimally invasive robotic surgery and an inpatient rehabilitation unit. Beyond patient care, the hospital plays an important educational role through its partnership with Florida Atlantic University's Charles E. Schmidt College of Medicine and its own Bethesda College of Health Sciences, helping train the next generation of healthcare professionals. Even if you're just passing by, the marker is worth a moment of your time--it's a small but meaningful reminder of how far healthcare in this community has come.

Beyond Exceptional Care -Truly a Blessing at Bethesda Hospital East…read more We were honestly hesitant to go to Bethesda Hospital East in Boynton Beach because of some negative reviews online, but it was an emergency situation with my mother, who was visiting my sister in Florida. She went to a walk-in clinic due to severe back pain, gum pain, weakness, and feeling faint. After an EKG, the clinic discovered she was having an active heart attack, and she was rushed to Bethesda Hospital East. From the very moment she was admitted, every single person from the cardiologists and specialists to the nurse practitioners, nurses, cleaners, security guards, and kitchen staff showed an incredible level of care, compassion, and professionalism. The cardiology team was outstanding, explaining every step clearly and acting quickly to save her life. The hospital felt more like a high-end resort than a medical facility. The rooms were spotless, the environment calm and comforting, and even the food was delicious made with care and served kindly. My mother felt truly seen and respected, especially because they had Spanish-speaking doctors and staff who made her feel comfortable and understood when discussing such critical health matters. When she was discharged, we found a beautiful thank-you letter in her papers, expressing gratitude for trusting them with her life such a thoughtful and human touch that deeply moved us. We don't usually write reviews, but it would honestly be an injustice not to share this experience. Bethesda Hospital East deserves recognition for the exceptional, heartfelt, and professional care they provide. If all hospitals and medical providers operated with this level of dedication and compassion, the world would be a much better place. Thank you, Bethesda Hospital East, for treating my mother with such love, respect, and excellence. You turned a frightening experience into one filled with hope and gratitude.
