Recently went there as I was diagnosed with Pneumonia. 7 day stay that shouldn't have taken that long if they had been monitoring the fluid build up in my lungs. This caused a need for surgery and unnecessary pain from being on air, breathing from one lung. Half of the nurses I had were either incompetent, non empathetic, narcissistic, or just plain evil. There were some really good ones, but you never kept the same nurse more than twice so you couldn't get a repertoire with them. Will never go back after my check ups are done. Cannot recommend anyone else go out of choice either. read more

Just watched a man throw up on the ER floor. The mess was cleaned up with a blanket from the warmer. No chemicals used. We watched as people stepped in it and tracked the throw ip chunks through the room.. the nurse moving about the er never changed her gloves. She saw 4 patients with no gloves change while handling also touching her hair . Face and touching multiple things in the emergency room.. how disgusting!!!!!!! While the intake nurses made the experience better the emergency room needs some work read more

WellStar Cobb Hospital - Trash all over the Er floor. From the front door to intake - Medical Centers Near Me - Austell, Georgia

Too Notch Care team. Very friendly & welcoming. Wonderful volunteering and Head Chaplain

HIPPA violations galore. No private rooms in the ER. I knew the bed next to me had a stroke and lupus and the medicines she was on. Lobby staff were rude and very unprofessional. I would don't take my enemy here. Worse hospital ever. read more

If I could give no stars I would. My mother-in-law was sent there in ambulance, and she has mild dementia, and her blood sugar was over 500. I called to check her status, and they said she was discharged. Granted she does not have a key to her house and can't remember a lot of things so where did they take her? No one could tell me and ran me around in circles. I'm still trying to track her down! read more

Horrible all the way around, maybe it's because the people in the area they deal with but we haven't had a good experience here yet. The few times we have had to come. read more

Couldn't speak more highly of the delivery and labor team who took care of our twins and Momma! The team from pre-op, OR, and post-op were AMAZING. The NICU team truly cares about our babies and has educated us throughout the whole process. Very grateful for this hospital! read more

WellStar Cobb Hospital - Baby Footprints - Medical Centers Near Me - Austell, Georgia

I don't understand all the negative reviews. I go here regularly for a specific outpatient procedure and have had very good experiences. Staff is so kind and caring. They can get overbooked, and very busy, and there can be wait times, but in the long run it's not a bad experience. I would recommend, but I'm sure it depends on why you're going and who you see. read more

What a nightmare! Mom broke her hip and was give a couple of rehab places. One forged my signature and gave a welcome bag with food on the card and 2 dead bugs. So we came bag to the hospital and Lisa with care coordination then gave me another 1 star rated place which she is suppose to go to. Only to find out it is 1 star rated by medicare as well which Lisa did not disclosed that I could see their rating on medicare.gov. Lisa is extremely pushy!!! Mom broke her dentures and was to be on a puree high protein diet and nurses brought her a regular breakfast with milk with sugar, juice high sugar waffle and syrup! Wt!!! Thank goodness I was here help her! read more

The ER is terrible they are slow and do things backwards, how you have patients sitting in the lobby with a IV. Wellstar Paulding would never. I would rather drive to another ER then sit at this place don't waste your time coming here just go to another ER. I didn't want to give them 1 star but had to to leave a review. read more

Our visits have consisted of ER visits unfortunately, but after two in the past 3 months, I am glad that this WellStar is located fairly close to us. Located on Austell Road just a few blocks from East West Connector, this WellStar is a full service hospital that features all the standards plus a Women's Center. As mentioned, our visits were both ER visits off recommendations from our primary care physicians. So, positive is we willfully arrived at the ER, but negative is we had to go to the ER. I'm both situations, which weirdly were over the weekend, the ER was pretty busy with a wait to be checked in and of course a wait to be seen. However in both cases, even with the waits, they are moving fairly quickly and getting people seen and discharged as quickly as possible. For the ER side of things, once you check in they have an employee with a computer cart coming to complete the process and gather all personal and insurance information. Additionally, they have another practitioner consistently calling patients to get vitals. This is helpful and makes the process as seamless as possible for when you are discharged. The staff from start to finish has been great each time. From the receptionists to the actual physicians, there has never been issues. While I hate we had reasons to visit a hospital, I am glad that we chose this one to visit. read more

My wife unfortunately suffered a miscarriage over the weekend, which was very difficult. Though one of the nurses in Labor & Delivery by the name of Laura was so incredibly compassionate to our situation and demonstrated an incredible level of knowledge and proper patient practises. To me, she serves as a role model for every other nurse. If this comment is able to find its way to her or her manager, I would like to thank her deeply for her presence in such a tough time for me and my wife. She made all the difference and we are so incredibly grateful for her. read more

15 yrs ago my sister gave birth via c-section to my nephew. It was a great experience. So of course when my daughter moved to GA i told her "oooh good you can give birth at WellStar Cobb. WHAT A HORRIBLE MISTAKE. Priscilla was her night nurse and she was AMAZING. She is the picture next to the definition of "Bedside manner". She showed true empathy. My daughter wanted so desperately to be able to give birth before Priscilla's shift was over at 7am. Unfortunately for my daughter that was not what happened. The morning nurse was Ashley and right from the get go you could tell she was not sincere. Truly "I'm here because it's my job and i have to be". By the time my daughter was finally 10cm and in full blown labor she had been man handled by Ashley and crew(didn't catch all their names). I myself have 3 children i have been in the delivery room with friends and family (I've been blessed to have been invited to be by their sides). Never have i seen the way they tossed a pregnant woman like her pain didn't matter. Literally grabbed the sheet and shook her around while in full labor to change positions. To be in a field that mostly is a time to help bring joy into the world and you couldn't care less about a first time mom's experience, shows you're in the wrong field!! While my daughter was ready to push and my grandchild crowning the dr was busy so she calls for backup, "can someone come to room xxx and catch a baby?". She continued to tell my daughter don't push. My grandchild just crowning and my daughter in pain because she's told not to push while Ashley played with my grandchild's hair while still inside my daughter!!!!! And continually asking my daughter "So much hair!!! Do you want to feel the head?? Are you sure you don't want to feel the head?" She was completely inappropriate!! Who does that?!!! Finally i mouth to my daughter to push anyway. She was in so much additional pain for no good reason. Just as she starts to push Ashley and her gang members tell her not to but the dr shows up (thank you sweet baby Jesus!). My grandchild is healthy. No one talks to my daughter about birth control. No one removes the clamp from the babies umbilical cord. No one tells her about care for the umbilical cord. She received the quickest lactation visit. Was not told how to break the seal when the baby latches on incorrectly and ended up with cracked, sore and scabbed nipples. The experience was just the worst and she no longer wants anymore children. It's only been a month but her first is burned in her brain forever. I feel sorry for her and any other moms who had to experience this lack of empathy. Never again and i would NOT recommend them to anyone i know or love. read more

The over all care and compassion of everyone I had to deal with in my stay at Wellstar Cobb Hospital was remarkable. Many went above and beyond in providing care. The food is always good and some of it is excellent. The emergency room is almost always overcrowded and they treat people based on their medical condition. So if you are there for a stomach ache you may see folks that come in after you with a severe wound get treated before you do. read more

Pretty easy 1 star review given you can't post a review with 0 stars. Rating fully based on admin and front of office lack of logistics and flow. - wait time and communication on next steps is flippant and/or non existent. (Christopher at front desk). 82 year old mom wait 11 hours to be seen. - once admitted the nurses were friendly in back - but again the timing of any Dr's or Cardiologist to review tests was unacceptable... tested at 8am and made to wait until 4pm to say "everything looks ok". I wonder if the 4:01 discharge was because they could bill insurance for another day?? The best thing about this ER visit, over night stay and then the discharge: Leaving. If you can - go to urgent care or another hospital. read more

the staff that i seen were very professional and compassionate... i would recommend the folks who worked in the emergency room on 041425 shift around lunch time. i know it is a hard job and an emotional job ... please know your compassion and kindness make a difference when folks are scared... thank you all for the job you do ! read more

The care and wait times are abysmal if you love your family do NOT bring them here. it took on average 3.5 hours per thing they did for my loved one meanwhile people are sitting suffering. really multiple reminders and 2 hours later they still couldn't get an iv drip. If you like having your test results they will make it hard to get your own info on your own body it's ludicrous once we get these test results we are leaving to get treated else where. read more

I went to this hospital this was the worst. Experience I have had ever I had checked into to the hospital at 9 pm and we were still there from 4:30 I had to leave cause they still had not attended me and they let pepole in front of me and they tried kicking out my husband for no reason if I were even dying I will rather die then go back to this hospital read more

Parent taken here as emergency case. No choice of hospital. After few days catheter placed so hospital staff didn't have to answer request for assistance to bathroom. Parent released to rehab center with catheter in place and rehab center didn't seem to know it was in. Parent discharged from 20 days rehab with catheter. Neither hospital nor rehab tried to wean off catheter before discharge. Now on meds trying to wean so they don't have to have permanent bag. Should never have happened. read more

I was admitted to the Emergency Department yesterday for some health issues. I was brought back quickly, but waited and waited and waited and waited. then I was brought back again, treated with medicine, blood work, etc., and then they take you a waiting room where you are surrounded by 5 or 6 other sick people in a small room with no entertainment such as television, etc. You sit their for another hour or two. Then you go and get discharged or admitted. It took them 49 minutes to discharge me. That's absurd. The stars are for the medical and nursing team. The ER docs to the PA's to the nurses and staff were all outstanding. Dr. Michele Flagge was the attending ER doc and she was absolutely wonderful. I will say that the radiology tech who did my CT was rude and not friendly. read more

Everytime I call for help with my sister I get transferred to anyone but no one can help left 3 messages with my sisters nuses for her doctor to call me .... 3 days still no call. While I visited sis Tuesday pm I was told to leave my purse on the table by the door of her room while my back was turned talking to my sister some nurse stole my medicine out of my purse. I do not recommend dr Jason Lee he does not return request for him to call I filed a police report about my stolen medicine. Dont go there they are awful!!!! read more

I've applied to multiple jobs with this hospital but keep getting denied. However this hospital is always advertising job fairs and immediate help. I have met with several other nurses who have stated they have been denied as well with no explanation. I've reached out to HR several times with no help or response. One person in HR stated that the hiring process had to do with recruiting team but it is no way to contact them. Someone in upper management need to investigate the hiring process performed by the recruitment team bc if multiple nurses and other healthcare workers are getting denied then how does this hospital expect people to get hired ? This hospital will always be short staff or very few workers due to unprofessional and corrupt recruitment team. Also, if a lot of people are being denied then this is the main reason this hospital will always need workers. Majority of applications do not get picked through the recruitment process so the individual doesn't get a interview. I applied last night and was denied this morning with no explanation. However, the nurses who are working or did get hired have stated I should be glad I didn't get picked bc the working conditions and patient care is horrible. read more

Review update 11.3.2020 Came in around 10pm, was discharged at 1230am. Very impressed with how the staff worked with my son with special needs, that was enough to bump them up a star. Great job guys, bravo to the guys who did our x-rays, the nurse staff who administered our pain reliever meds, the intake staff, and the doctors... you are appreciated! Complaints that are beyond their (the hospitals) control, people walking into the e.r. oblivious to their body odor or smelling like (Marijuana or cigarettes), it makes the whole waiting room smell like it ((gags)) and if I can smell it with a mask on, a thick mask at that... I can only imagine how horrible you smell without a mask on. I feel sorry for the staff who has to treat those people. Disgusting. read more

Cobb Hospital Review I had major outpatient surgery today (Feb 8, 23) at the Barrett Surgery Center (at WellStar's Cobb Hospital) where I was able to make several observations: Location. If you have a SmartPhone, type "Barrett Surgery Center" into your Maps app search feature. If that name is not recognized, then use "Cobb Hospital." From the East-West Connector (Also called Barrett Parkway) turn north on Austell Rd, then left (west) on Hospital North Dr. Then in 350 feet, turn left on hospital grounds. You will find outpatient surgery dropoff on your right in about 20 feet. In another few feet, you will find the outpatient surgery parking lot, but you will need a code to get into it. The nurse who scheduled your surgery probably gave you the code in an email. Efficiency. As you walk in the door, there is a table with surgical masks and a sign instructing you to wear a mask. Straight ahead is a group of desks, and someone will greet you. Provide your photo ID and insurance card, and you will be asked to state your full name and birthdate (this will be asked again several times throughout the day) After sitting in the waiting room (comfortable benches, chairs, electric outlets, USB ports, big screen TVs, restrooms, vending machines) you will be called to a private registration office where you answer questions about your procedure and make your copayment (if you didn't already do it online.) Then you will stop off at the information desk where your Significant Other gives his cell phone number and is taught how to "read" the status monitor where you are listed by ID number which is color-coded to indicate your location (pre-op, OR, recovery, discharge) You are required to have someone take responsibility for you after surgery, and if that person watches the monitor, he can see your location in the system. After sitting again in the waiting room, a scrub tech will come call your name and take you to pre-op while your visitor stays in the waiting room. Pre-op is mostly vital signs and IV starting and lots of questions. There is also a private bathroom. Once your pre-op is completed, your visitor will be notified and he can can sit with you in the pre-op room. Cleanliness. Being a Registered Nurse myself, I expect hospitals to be sterile and spotlessly clean. Barrett Surgery Center (BSC) does not disappoint. There was no dirt anywhere. Every employee seemed committed to maintaining a safe and clean environment for themselves and their patients. Anesthesia. While I know my surgeon, Dr. Shroff, and have complete confidence in her abilities, I was a little nervous about the anesthesia. But Dr. Balaoing visited, and put me at ease. He asked me all the right questions, and when I asked, he gave me all the right answers. Then the nurse anesthetist visited, and his jovial confidence made the ride to the OR a breeze. Post-op. The next few hours go by in a minute, and you find yourself waking up to sweet smiling faces telling you how wonderful everything went. Once your vital signs are checked, instructions are given, and your visitor is given instructions, you are taken to the parking lot in a wheelchair and allowed to go home. Prescription for pain med is phoned to your pharmacy and you can pick it up on the way home. Update: The day after surgery, you will get a phone call from a WellStar nurse, just to check up and answer any questions. read more

First of all, I escorted my friend for a 9:30 Colonoscopy. We sat in the lobby until 11 am when I finally pulled an employee aside to ask about the delay. We were told the doc was running behind. They took my friend back and I sat in the lobby almost 4 hours without updates. We had to wear mask, but other than that COVID protocols did not exist. Before my friend went back, I was told that they would call me when they finish. Thank God my friend kept his phone with him. No-one ever called. Finally, my friend called and told me to grab him. read more

I have been to this hospital twice and both times I would have to say the entire staff was wonderful. First with a fractured back, then my last visit ended me up at the in-house burn center. That place is awesome in every regard. I read a lot of negative and even hateful reviews of this facility, and I would remind readers that we are a very spoiled society and our hospitals are overwhelmed with swarms of people who can not, or never intended to, pay a penny towards their care. This is not Mexico where hospitals hold patients responsible for payment of their services. Our hospitals can not turn anyone away so they have become forced healthcare factories paid for largely by the few who work hard and carry insurance. You get what your country has allowed you to have. Place the blame where it belongs. read more

WHY DID WE GO? My wife gave birth to our daughter here. It seems everyone goes to Northside, the "baby factory" to have their babies. But I'm not driving 35 minutes. This was only 5 minutes away from my house. Convenience is more important than 2 star average Yelp rating. Then again, Northside has a 2.5 average rating. I'm not losing anything going to Wellstar compared to Northside. Since we came to Wellstar to give birth, this review is for the Ob/Gyn Labor and Delivery department. Unlike other reviewers, I had an amazing experience at this hospital. ROOM AND BOARD I remember in the early 80's, when my brother was born, he was taken immediately to the nursery after birth. But these days, the baby stays in the same room with you the whole time. I'm sure every modern hospital does that, but I thought that was cool. The room we stayed at was a typical hospital room. The dad gets a couch that flips into a narrow bed. I tried laying on the bed, but I felt like I was going to fall off. I turned it back into a sofa. If you are not a deadbeat dad and came to support your wife through the whole stay, I suggest not turning the sofa into a bed. After giving birth, we moved to a larger room on a different floor. It seems like they have the birth rooms in one floor and the recovery room in another. The recovery room looked like the birthing room but larger. It had a bassinet for the newborn, a rocking chair, and a bigger bathroom. WHAT'S THE DEAL WITH HOSPITAL FOOD? We took advantage of the "free" room service that comes with out stay. I don't know why people complain about hospital food. Sure, it wasn't gourmet. But it did its job of providing us calories. The food wasn't disgusting. It was fine. Both the wife and husband can enjoy "complimentary" breakfast, lunch, and dinners (the food cost is covered in the giant hospital bill you get after a few weeks). The food tasted bland, but I took advantage of the salt and pepper packets and made it taste acceptable. After the stressful and exhausting day of labor and delivery, any edible food is good enough for me. I wasn't complaining. Don't expect a four course meal at Bacchanalia. Each floor has a break room with coffee, tea, water and ice. Depending on which floor you're in, some have crackers, applesauce, or instant broth. STAFF The people here are incredible. All the nurses, midwives, doctors, consultants, etc., they were all professional and amazing. I loved their individual personalities and kept us sane throughout our stay. One anesthesiologist screwed up my wife's epidural. But they got a different to fix it immediately. While my wife was dealing with the pain from the previous anesthesiologist's non-epidural, the nurse kept her in check and made sure my wife's head was still in the game. She was like a coach and nurse all in one. The nursers have a tough job. They have 12 hour shifts and have to deliver multiple babies a day. But they kept their professional composure, had relaxed and sometimes quirky personalities, and made us feel at ease. Maybe I had low standards of nurses. But I was amazed at the job they did. MILK IT We came back for the Lactation consultant. I think every new mom should do this. Their lactation consultants were also amazing. They have a separate, private office to do the consulting. They were like 1/3 therapists, 1/3 baby nutritionist, and 1/3 doctor. Our consultant listened to our experiences and concerns, like a therapist. She taught us about breast milk and how it helps the baby. And she helped us to get a good latch and general information about baby care. She was kind and caring. She made us feel at ease instantly. CONCLUSION Giving birth is a stressful and sleepless experience for both moms and dads. I'm happy to say Wellstar Cobb Hospital gave us the best possible experience for us, the new parents. Since this was our first kid, I can't compare to other hospitals. But we're very happy with our experience here. read more

I'm not sure why the overall score is so low but this review is for the labor and delivery department. The experience here was phenomenal. I was pleasantly surprised. I guess because I had the most wonderful doctor in the world but he's in heaven now . A family member gave birth here and the staff made everyone from the family feel like a part of their family . Everyone from the doctors , midwives , nurses, anesthesiologist, including housekeeping were so nice and professional. I stayed over night and there was a couch in the room , that pulled out into a bed , a rocking chair and bench in the room with a tv and a menu. It was responsibly comfortable. The room temp was pleasant, not like most medical facilities. It wasn't cold or hot . The medical staff kept up posted as to what would happen in intervals . They were really excellent about that . Also the nurses constantly checked in in the mother and the rest of the family to see if we needed anything. The brought pillows , blankets and offered snacks and drinks often . It was a very special experience and the staff was great I really can't stress that enough . With Covid in place it's absolutely tough now - a- days to find great patient/ customer care. Oh! It was nice to park in a big open parking lot instead of a parking deck where you need to walk through a bunch of cars in a closed environment. I loved the openness and parking was free . Just in case you were wondering . Safety is key and parking decks don't feel as safe . I recommend anyone having a baby to come over to Cobb Hospital. It was clean and they practiced sanitation and social distancing as much as possible. Check Cobb Hospital out!! read more

THIS HOSPITAL IS HORRIBLE. THEY LIE ABOUT Taking medical coverage just to get you in the door. then they provide you with doctors and nurses that are out of your insurence network and dont tell the patients. then you will get notices in the mail that your insurence did not cover the bills and you will be stuck owing thousands of dollars. many of the nurses are traveling nurses ans not staff employees there for you are paying for their services as well. THERE ARE MABY LAW SUITS AGAINST WELL STAR. PLEASE DO YOUR RESEARCH AND SUE THEM. read more

This the worst ER on God's earth! They are trying to give everyone that has pain MORPHINE! What kind of B.S is that. My head has been hurting since 6pm and it's 2:50 am. The hospital doctor is so unprofessional. These ppl expose what you have been diagnosed with with other patients in this small contaminated room. Their rating is a 0. They should be closed. read more

I've been going to Wellstar for quite sometime and today really surprised me. I was standing in earshot of an Employee, I believe African American, by the name of Michelle I didn't catch her last name. She was speaking very rudely to a female Shuttle driver. She flagged her down and ask her does she know her because she has a stank face and she proceeded to yell at her asking her does she have a problem. The shuttle driver was very polite about it. Michelle then told the driver that she drives a Grey Lexus and that she didn't like the Shuttle driver. I asked the Shuttle driver was she ok because Michelle was very mean to her and she caused a scene. If that's how Wellstar employees act I won't be returning. This was not right on so many levels. I will be returning to get Michelle with the Grey Lexus last name because she needs to be reported. That young lady didn't deserve that. read more

First they did not fully treat my cousin with a hip fracture, they refused to fax a referral to a rehabilitation facility in SC near his home and now they have discharged him even though he cannot walk and his wife has a pending complaint filed with medicare..absolutely unacceptable..He had good insurance..not sure why they are pushing him out....are they trying to hide something?? read more

If you are looking for emergency services go to kennestone or the urgent care. All they did was bounce the patients from chair to chair. The nurses and techs didn't seem to want to help at all. More like entitled to treat you like crap because they don't have beds. It's not my fault this hospital doesn't have beds but it is my fault for choosing to come here. Never again! read more

If I could give negative stars, I would. My daughter was admitted 26 hours ago, but is still sitting in a recliner in the emergency room. That's bad enough, but the way she is being treated by the er night shift is disgusting. This is not the same hospital it use to be. read more

I will begin with I used to think this was a wonderful hospital. I even delivered my daughter there, 6 years ago. That experience was wonderful. However, the experience I had last night was a complete nightmare and I will never be back. I went in due to having consistent braxton hicks contractions and to ensure my current pregnancy was ok. The receptionist was probably the quickest part of the entire visit. I was forced to go to the ER section, as they don't see anyone in L&D under 20 weeks. This policy needs to be looked into, as a fetus is not even viable at 17 NOR 20 weeks. That cut off is asinine. I waited 6.5 HOURS for blood work and an ultrasound, and they took their sweet time. The catheter that was put into my arm was a nightmare. It was too large, and when I asked for a smaller catheter I was told "No, you're fine." Unacceptable. I work in the medical field and I am well aware that catheters come in MULTIPLE sizes. It was so painful that I couldn't even bend my arm the entire time it was placed. Now I have a hematoma, and I can barely touch the site without terrible pain. There was no compassion whatsoever with the nurse who did my catheter. At one point I had to ask how much longer we'd be waiting for a blood draw and ultrasound, and I was told by the receptionist that they had already done the US. That was news to me, as I hadn't moved from sitting in the lobby and was never pulled for one. This is not acceptable in the medical field. It was as if they had no clue what the hell was going on. How long would I have sat if I didn't get up to ask? Who knows. It took them 1.5 HOURS to have my catheter removed, when I could have done it in 10 seconds. Some of the staff was compassionate, but definitely not all of them. I understand being tired and dealing with disgruntled patients, but everyone deserves compassion. I have never in my life had a worse experience with a hospital. As much as I wanted to deliver my second child here, I will be seeking care elsewhere after this fiasco. I also understand ERs are understaffed and swamped, but compassion and communication go such a long way. The communication last night was terrible and ridiculous. Do NOT recommend this hospital. Wellstar Paulding is a MUCH better facility. Unfortunately, they don't have L&D. Overall I wouldn't waste your time here. read more

WellStar Cobb Hospital - Hematoma from a catheter that was too large. - Medical Centers Near Me - Austell, Georgia

This was the worst experience in my almost 55 years. I had emergency gall bladder removal surgery and was kept on a VERY low dose of painkiller. I screamed myself into high blood pressure and hoarseness due to the very poor pain control. Every time the medicine was due, they waited at least an hour or two and forced me and my husband to call around and beg for pain relief. I developed bronchitis from yelling and gasping in agony. I was sent home with a pathetic amount of low-dose painkillers. I was in excruciating pain for 18 days post surgery. This is NOT the standard of care. I will NEVER step foot on Wellstar Cobb hospital property again. I will go to St. Joseph's, God forbid something else goes wrong. read more
