Hands-down, one of the best medical experiences my wife and I have experienced. The new facility is modern, advanced, inviting, clean, and professional. The staff from the desk personnel, to the doctors, to the nurses, were all incredibly kind, helpful, and courteous. Where this place truly shines is its nursing staff. Brenna was one of the most caring, kind, and knowledgeable nurses I have ever come across, and she made my wife feel safe, secure, and confident in her care. We couldn't have done it without her. Truly exceptional! The doctors took their time and were patient, thorough, and explained everything well, answering all questions and concerns. My wife's room was excellent. Clean, modern, and well-kept. Staff were attentive and responded to any needs immediately, and also checked in regularly. Overall, couldn't not be happier! read more

First time at the new valley hospital and I was extremely impressed once inside. The navigating their campus outside is a bit confusing as parking and signage are not very helpful. I recommend using their valet as it saves you ample time. Once inside the staff were extremely helpful telling me exactly where I needed to go and which elevators and turns to make. Visiting my grandmother was easy and extremely pleasant. The new rooms are laid out extremely well as they have bathrooms, ample chairs, and a bench that turns into a bed for overnight guests as well. read more

September 19 2026 1 pm... My son, who is currently in room 6020 on the 6th floor in the new Valley Hospital in Paramus, is non verbal and can not interact with people ( he is severely disabled) has been in the hospital for 3 days now. My wife and I have repeatedly tried to communicate with the nursing staff but they are always 'too busy' to give us an update on his current situation (has the Dr. seen him today, has he been fed, does he have his dolls to hold and snuggle with, etc.). He has been to Valley Hospital in Ridgewood many times over the years and his care has been very good. The current nursing staff need to be more sensitive to their patients situation and updating their caregivers when requested. This patient lives in a group home and his parents live out of state. Valley Hospital's new facilities is going down hill! Larry Brown read more

This doesn't look smell or feel like a hospital and after having to have some diagnostic imaging here that made me extremely nervous I have to say this was an outstanding experience. The techs and the doctors were nothing but kind, compassionate and kept me calm throughout the whole experience. read more

Had to come for a minor diagnostic test. What a well oiled machine this place is!! Checked in downstairs. Told me where to go. Instantaneous text same directions. Went to the floor checked in where I need to check in. The guy already had my paper there said do you have your prescription? Handed it to him within five minutes. I got my wristband. Another five minutes and I was seen. Fantastic. read more

Caveat: One can be in the ER for HOURS! And that was on a "moderately busy" afternoon. We were there for 6 hours before my parent was admitted. They could use extra staffing in the ER. The ER doc was competent but perhaps had too many people to tend to. Once upstairs, the team was attentive and worked together like a well-oiled machine. The single rooms are modern and as pleasant as a hospital can be. Nice to be able to see who has been in the room via the history on a screen. The nursing interns doing grunt work were exceptionally kind and caring. read more

Now I'm not fond of hospitals or medical buildings in general, cause in reality places like that make me uncomfortable, but I came here to see an elderly patient who is a mutual friend of a friend of mine, the patient at the moment is being well taken care of, the hospital itself is pretty organized and with adequate ample space as well as sanitized, I also like the selected doctors that show up on the TV screen in the room, but IMO I think every patient should have their own assigned set of RNs instead of different RNs everyday for the same patient, until the patient is discharged, then if necessary, a private nurse can be assigned after, that way, different doctors won't make the patient confused and figure which doctor is which, but overall, super grateful that the elderly patient has been taken care of in general, overall, it's a nice hospital, I also like the ambience of the waterfall and the butterfly garden when you leave the hospital, I also like that you don't pay for the parking when you park your car, unlike some of the other hospitals I have been to, so that's a plus.. read more

So far, very disappointed. I have a major procedure set up there in two days. First it was set up for 8:00 am. Then they said no, I had been told incorrectly and it was probably the afternoon. Then my doctor gave me a third time--"maybe." I can't reach anyone there. The patient portal refuses to let me register saying I don't have a legitimate email--which is ridiculous. I can't reach anyone there. I was only told someone would reach out to me--"maybe." My only option is spending the afternoon on hold and then getting bounced around. I hope this is not indicative of their care. read more

Exceptional care and patient focus was outstanding. The hospital is clean and quiet with thought put into everything in order to make patients comfortable. Hospice and palliative care were incredible and the team worked together without missing a beat. Private rooms were also so much more restorative. read more

I came here on 2/10 for a diagnostic mammogram due to a swollen breast filled with fluid and significant pain. I informed the technician of my condition before the procedure began and my concerns about the process. The mammogram was handled in a way that felt unnecessarily forceful. When the images were not coming out clearly, because of the swelling and fluid, I sensed visible irritation. I was pushed against the machine, my breast was forcefully squeezed in a manner that increased my pain, and I left me more sore and anxious about further aggravating an already concerning condition. I cannot recommend this facility based on that experience. read more

Communication failures throughout this health system. There are still nurses with power and control issues. Nurses are consistently dismissive and often mislead intentionally. Last issue was with same day nurse who describes herself as the charge nurse. Repeatedly gave me misleading information and displayed dangerous behavior in my opinion. Nurse that will not listen to family caregivers when they have extensive knowledge of their loved one is always a mistake. Misleading them intentionally by leaving out information or answering questions in a manipukative way is not going to build trust. Michelle was the angel who rescued us from the very unprofessional nurse we experienced. I also thought that charge nurse should be reprimanded for the way she showed up to work with ill-fitting scrubs pants dragging in hospital filth another sign she doesn't respect her job. Also she seemed to be putting on quite a show for what appeared to be student nurses. I also dont know how putting a blood pressure cuff on a calf over the patients post op leg compression sleeve is an accurate way to take an accurate bp reading.... and use that reading to medicate a patient off of. When confronted she began exhibiting hostility and abuse of power and control along with retaliatory behaviors....also witnessed by Nurse Michelle....a sweet Middle aged blonde Nurse who said she had been a long time valley employee. I hope valley raises their standards back to where the used to be. Peoples lives are in jeopardy. read more

I am addressing a situation last fall and winter. October thru December where my Husband, a patient of Dr. Kevin Wood, Oncology was told he must go to the hospital immediately for a procedure called a JP drain to remove fluid from his abdominal cavity. My husband was admitted to the hospital after an ER visit and released after 10 days. He was readmitted in Nov for the same procedure and again, admitted in December. He did have some complications from a prior Gist Tumor surgery in 2018 that he had been under the care of Dr. Wood, for follow up since 2018. HOWEVER, Dr. Wood NEVER visisted or spoke to him in the hospital. The surgery team also did not follow up with my husband and they left him in the dark, not knowing what was wrong. His JP drain test results showed no cancer cells in the fluid. Dr. Wood, nor any other doctor, even the pathetic hospitalists, never spoke to my husband or myself about his condition or prognosis. They basically left him there to die. He caught Pneumonia while in Valley which ultimately took him down. I ended up transfering him out of Valley on my own dime. A biopsy at the other hospital proved he had metastasis in his lung and suspicion from the valley notes, probably in his abdomen. This was never discussed with us at Valley. Doctors dont talk to patients anymore? I wrote a letter to The new CEO Dr Robert Brenner, Dr Yallowitz the Chief Medical Director and Dr. Casper the Chief of Oncology. They responded to me and did meet with me twice to discuss my concerns. My concerns were mainly that patient Care at Valley is non existent. The surgical oncology team is terrible, especially Dr. Winkler, who should have made a referral, and Dr Wood was dissapointing. After treating my husband for 8 years, he could not even reach out by mail to express his condolences, never mind reaching out to his patient of 8 years to discuss that he was failing and probably dying, which he did the end of December. Valley Hospital is a hugh dissappoinment. The Chiefs of staff admitted to me that these Doctors did not know how to help my husband most likely, then why did they not refer him to someone who might have been able to?? Instead they let him lay in the hospital and get pneumonia. He was not important to them. Their hospitalists are useless and uninformed. Especially Dr Daveed and Dr Angiolino, The system of medicine in this day and age of "Hospitals are businesses" leave the patient to be the least important pieece of the puzzle. Its pathetic and sad. I lost my husband, my children lost their father. Dr Wood just lost a patient, he'll get another one. I would not recomend Valley, especially Oncology. Hind sight is 20/20. I feel like a fool. There are so many other problems at Valley in the ER and with Nursing, My husband Fell as Nurse JOLANDA allowed that to happen on her watch and he had 6 Staples to his head!!! She couldnt get to him in time and did not call me till 4 hours after it happened. Shame on her!!!! Shame on Valley. This hospital has gone downhill!!! Please, if you have a bad experience, write a letter (email) to the CEO and the Chiefs of staff. Patient advocacy can help you. Demand a meeting in person as I did.. express your concerns and demand they listen and hear you. This is the only way they MIGHT understand. Take the time to speak with them in person! read more

Terrible case management!! My father, Thomas Materna, had surgery on April 27, 2026 and on at noon the next day the case manager never came to see him and was negligent in assisting him when it was her duty to do so. It's the hospital's responsibility to hire the right staff. No wonder the ratings for this hospital are very low. We intend to leave another negative review elsewhere. read more

PROS: this is a brand new hospital that looks amazing! The staff is nice, they're clean and organized, and good at medical treatments compared to other hospitals. Parking is free and plentiful as well. The ER nurse Sharon was very helpful and friendly!! CONS: it takes forever to get service as my friend waited in the ER for a while. Very small gift shop and a cafeteria that closes early OVERALL: I recommend coming here as a general hospital. My friend, who was the patient, loved it and as I accompanied him I loved it too read more

Valley Hospital Transformed My Mother's Life - And Gave Her Freedom at 82 I've spent the past year taking my 82-year-old mother to multiple hospitals across New Jersey. Every single one discharged her after minimal workup, telling us to "follow up with her primary care doctor." They missed critical issues. They sent her home worse than she arrived. Valley Hospital was different. When my mother arrived at Valley's ER with severe orthostatic hypotension (blood pressure dropping to 76 mmHg), near-syncope episodes, and persistent vomiting, I expected the same response we'd gotten everywhere else: basic labs, IV fluids, discharge with instructions to "stay hydrated." Instead, Valley Hospital ADMITTED her for a comprehensive workup. Over the next five days, Valley's team did something remarkable: They recognized complex polypharmacy issues that multiple other hospitals had missed. My mother was on five cardiac medications prescribed during an acute crisis months earlier - medications that were now causing dangerous side effects because her condition had changed. Valley's physicians identified this and adjusted her medications appropriately. They discovered she may not need dialysis after all. My mother had been on dialysis three times per week since August, spending endless hours weekly in a chair, feeling progressively worse. Valley's nephrology team conducted a thorough reassessment and discovered her kidney function had recovered to a level where dialysis might no longer be necessary. As of today, she's being discharged with a plan to hold dialysis completely and monitor her kidney function weekly. They took the TIME to get it right. In an era where hospitals are pressured to discharge quickly, Valley kept my mother for five full days to ensure every specialist had time to evaluate her thoroughly. Cardiology. Nephrology. Endocrinology. Every consultation added clarity to her complex medical picture. They didn't just stabilize my mother - they transformed her life. She's leaving Valley Hospital stronger than she's been in a year. No more dangerous blood pressure drops. No more vomiting and dizziness. No more three-days-per-week dialysis torture. Her medications are optimized. Her kidney function is stable. At 82 years old, she has her LIFE back. Valley Hospital is a brand new, state-of-the-art facility. But what makes them truly exceptional isn't the building - it's their willingness to go the extra mile for complex patients when other hospitals take shortcuts. If you or a loved one needs hospital care, Valley Hospital is the only place I would recommend. They don't just treat symptoms - they solve problems. They don't just discharge patients - they transform lives. My mother and I are forever grateful. Thank you, Valley Hospital, for giving her a second chance at living, not just surviving. read more

The TVs at Valley Hospital are terrible--no channel listings, so you can't even tell what's on. Every channel change triggers an annoying voice, and the constant announcements about people entering the room are unnecessary and intrusive. I can ask who's there--I don't need the TV telling me. However the Entire Staff where Great everyone was very Friendly and Helpful from the Staff Nurses to the Cath Lab to the techs and food server they all where great !! Being a RN myself I know how difficult nursing can be ! read more

My husband had a great experience with the doctor who performed his TAVR procedure. However, we were most disappointed with the time frame he was given regarding his cardiac physical therapy. His procedure was on 1/20/26, but they weren't offering physical therapy until 3/5/26. It seemed counterproductive to start so long after the procedure. We were able to secure him cardiac physical therapy through a different hospital that started in early February. read more

I took my husband to Valley ER. If I could I would give negative stars. The entire experience was horrible. Doc name came to see and nurses didn't care at all very cold and didn't care. My husband was in sever pain to a point were he was having a hot flash (possible high blood pressure) from the pain he couldn't tolarete. One of his eye blew a blood vessels got all blood read. they didn't care and didn't even want to come see him. So few mins later I asked for a wheelchair so I can take him to a different hospital and she didn't even look up and started walking. Few mins later she dropped off wheelchair and left. This is insane. You can make brand new facility but if you can't have more sympathetic staff and doctors. It all means nothing. I lost almost 2 hours with all this and went to Hackensack Hospital and we received excellent service. I live in Paramus and I would never recommend anyone Valley. If Valley is reading this, we were giving F35 room - nurse's station near should be reprimanded for their action. One particularly who dropped off wheelchaie read more

The Valley Hospital - Hospitals Near Me - Paramus, New Jersey

What a dump. Went to the emergency room and waited 3 hours for nothing. Wasn't even sent to the triage. Employees have really bad attitudes and it almost seems as if they enjoy being rude. ER is too small and very industrial looking. The ER looks old and outdated, I would never know this is a new hospital. Valley should have hired the architect who designed Jersey Shore Medical Center. What a dump and disappointment the "new" Valley is. The ER has the rudest front desk employees. Whoever the CEO of Valley is, should be fired. read more

Ridgewood resident having to visit the new Valley Hospital in Paramus Emergency Room for the first time. Waited almost six hours to be seem by a doctor. Nurses attending my husband were nice but the folks at the nurses station did not have the greatest bedside manner. Seemed disconnected from ER patients they were there to help. We got a room but kept having to ask for the basics - water, ice pack - as nobody asked about his pain level or what he needed even though he was writhing in pain. Pros: Nice, new hospital with all the amenities. Medical staff, communication, and processes really, really need to be improved in the ER. This was not what I expected from the new Valley Hospital, having been a resident here for so many years. Please do better. read more

Cons: *Labor and delivery reuses delivery blankets and swaddles used for birth no matter how gross and dirty they get *Nurse told us not to take opened products like formula, wipes, diapers, etc.. because they were going to reuse them. *They don't allow you to take home your child's blanket they are born in *Nurse went through my wife's belongings and took stuff *Food is inedible, to survive in the hospital you'll have to find an outside source of food *Can't see tv from couch so you can't even enjoy a movie or tv show while in recovery with your significant other *They leave babies in the hallways when they are in the "nursery", they were taking my wife for an X-ray and the orderly ramed her right into a baby's bed *Cafeteria is horrible Pros: * We got some really nice nurses who helped us out * delivery room was large and had everything in the room needed for a quick delivery * Post delivery room was large as well and they allowed 4 people at a time to visit read more

This was my first time visiting this new hospital which opened after I moved from New Jersey to Delaware in 2021. I visited my older brother here. I was very impressed by the whole hospital including the entrance, lobby, hallways and rooms. I have visited the HMH Hackensack University Medical Center, when I lived in Bergen County. HMH Hackensack University Medical Center is an older hospital. Unlike HMH Hackensack University Medical Center there is no charge for parking here. My older brother stayed in a very nice large room with lots of automation features including automated blinds and video conferencing with any doctor or specialist in the world. There was also a robotic patient monitoring system. During my 6 hour stay the doctors, specialists and healthcare staff were very accommodating to my older brother and my visiting family. I heard that Valley convinced many of the doctors and staff from HMH Hackensack University Medical Center to move to this new hospital. During my 6 hour stay I also experienced staff passing out drinks and snacks in the hallway to everyone including patients, staff and visitors. I would return here to visit anyone although I hope there is no reason for any of my family or friends to be admitted here. I hope they all stay healthy and well. Best wishes to all. read more

They changed- detox used to be amazing now Brian is there- huge mistake ever !!!!!!!!!!!! so rude to everybody - kicks you out before you're even ready to go- used to be. You would stay for at least 7 to 10 days and you would be good -the drugs today you need to stay that long. I don't know why they're letting him do that to the patience. It's terrible. Before Brian came along. It was a really nice detox and you would actually leave healthy now you leave still sick -5 days does not do it for you. , it doesn't make sense. They're getting money for you being there and you need help just help us. that's why people keep coming back. They need help. Brian needs to go or the rules need to go back to keeping you for 7 to 10 days. You can't leave still addicted. It's a set up for failure.!!!!!! read more

If I could give no stars or negative stars I would. Notice the difference in the ratings since they left Ridgewood. I never had such an awful experience in a hospital as I did with them. I also would tell them to never call themselves a "care team". I was barely responsive but until my husband was carrying me to the bathroom they finally took me in. The pct there didn't think to take my vitals and asked my husband my name and decided to slap me in the face to "check" if I was conscious. I didn't respond but I could feel and knew everything that was going on. She still didn't check my vitals and called a code and stated cpr. I felt that! Thank goodness she didn't break my rib. The "care team" came in and told her to stop. You think with the altered neuro they'd do a ct scan right away- wasn't until my son called and told them to. That was 5 hrs into my er visit. I was admitted. The hospitalist was supposed to visit 2x, never showed up. But guess what- she was in the hospital both Times. I have epilepsy and until it was suggested by myself they finally connected me to the eeg machine. Guess what- that made a difference! Never send a loved one there. Go to Hackensck, Englewood, or Holy Name. I expected the highest of valley but I can tell you it's beautiful and got great chicken parm! read more

Go ahead and try to talk to some one to make an appointment for lab or diagnostic imaging . No one answers the phone .

the worst hospital experience ever. I got hurt at work, split my finger open, requiring stitches. waited in waiting room for 2 hours, saw a nurse who moved me to another room for two more hours. when I complained, the nurse smiled and told me "it happens on medical mondays". the nurse gave me 4 stitches to close wound. when I went to my personal physician, he had asked if I was the one who stitched up my own wound, and said what a pitiful job the valley hospital had done. in his estimation the wound required at least 10 stitches. valley hospital then billed me,$5356.10 in two seperate bills. the valley hospital is the worst ever. don't waste your time and money at The valley hospital. they will certainly ROB YOU BLIND read more

If you need care go elsewhere. Took a friend there on a Monday. He is a older gentleman who never went to the doctor. I tried to explain what the nurses and doctors need to do for him and calm him down as he may have been experiencing possibly a stroke or a concussion or something else. Nurse practically ripped the curtain open and scolded us for talking. I went to the desk to explain. We are talking to calm him down to get him to feel comfortable and relax as he hasn't been to a hospital in decades. She gave me a look like whatever. Go elsewhere for care. Only the valet were nice guys. read more
