Great experience so far. My bf was admitted a few days ago and he is currently having a procedure done. The older gentleman in the outpatient waiting area was EXTREMELY hospitable. He checked on me several times to make sure I didnt need anything as I waited. His friendliness really made me happy which is why I decided to make this review. I would definitely recommend Blake hospital to those with emergencies.

From my pre-op testing, hip replacement surgery and post surgery stay, everyone on the staff from the housekeeper to the physical therapist were professional, caring and courteous. The nurses tending to me were outstanding in every way. I couldnt have asked for a more pleasant experience from the staff and facilities at Blake. Highly recommended!

Excellent medical care during my entire day stay!My family worried because the Informer tracking system utilized during my day stay lost me in the system. Subsequently my family came to the hospital to find me in person. It took a while to find me , but I was right where I was suppose to be...in the out patient recovery ward. I was fine the whole time. But during the Covid pandemic, it was unfortunate that family had to take the next the step for an in person visit to find me.If the tracking system was more comprehensive to follow me the whole day, then my familys in person tracking could have been avoided.I did not bring my cell phone, since it was considered a valuable that should be left home.The Informer tracking system is a great idea. It id not work as intended on this day for my family.

I am sorry I didnt write down names. I was in 375E from Friday night until Monday morning. Without a doubt, when people use the word HEROS. These ladies are the most professional, caring and giving nurses in the world. I would like to thank these ladies and Blake Medical with allMy heart. James Steve Brown

I was treated top notch. The best hospital I have ever been. Nursing, Doctors, House keeping and dietary waited on me hand and foot. I couldn’t ask for a better place to have surgery. Keep up the excellent work. Do to others as you want done to you. Blake has proven that and went beyond my expectations. Well Done.

All the ladies in the Center for Breast Health were amazing!! Very polite and mammogram was painless and done quickly. Ladies, there is absolutely no reason not to have your annual mammogram!! Outstanding!!!

I had an MRI at Blakes outpatient center at the Hospital. From the reception (Robert) to the MRI Technologist (Lee Ann) it was a fantastic experience. Everyone I interacted with was kind, friendly and professional. The check in process was streamlined making it easy to complete. I dont remember the womans name who finalized the process unfortunately, but she was so very nice and accommodating.The CT Technologist that started my IV was great! I didnt even feel it. She made it painless.And Lee Ann!! What a great Tech! Knowledgeable, efficient and professional but so friendly!! I felt right at ease knowing she was taking care of me.Overall, I would say that it was the best medical experience I have ever had. I would encourage anyone to utilize this great facility.

I had a really good experience with Blake - first time there too. I was seen very quickly, but of course, you still have to wait for the tests to come back in order to get an accurate diagnosis. Sure, the wait was a little long for that, but isnt that just about everywhere? The good news that I received was worth it - thanks for being there when I needed you!

I was there for a mammogram and I was treated with complete respect. It was quick and easy. I recommend that all women get there mammogram completed. It isnt that bad. A bit weird but necessary. I received a good report back which I am so thankful for as well.

It was an okay experience in the end when I went back for my xray. In the begining the woman in registration had came to me and made me stand outside telling me I was positive for covid when I just got a negative test from cvs hours before. I was highly upset with her. But she didnt care to see my results, she just shrugged and walked away.

Doctor came out to me in waiting room and brought me back... This shows that as a doctor he is in tune with the people he works with and isnt too good to help out. He was very easy to speak with. Just as the the nurse in triage.. The RN that wrapped my finger was also just as nice and informative... Was in and out in less than an hour. I know this wont be every visit, but was helpful to me on this particular day.

Went it with abdominal pain after the doctor at Pinnacle sent me there knowing it was my gallbladder because of the swelling. Blake did an ultrasound and CT scan said they did not find anything when you could see a huge lump where my gallbladder is at. I never even got to see or speak to a doctor the 6 hours I was there. I then went to Dr Erbella office and my gallbladder was full of stones and as big as a grapefruit. Dr Erbella who is amazing took me right in for emergency surgery to remove my gallbladder. I will never go to Blake for anything the hospital is horrible and staff was very rude.

My nurses were fantastic, especially my day nurse who was extremely helpful. However my doctors were residents who did not communicate at all. Each one i spoke to gave me very different information. To top it off, the primary doctor on my case said I was clear to go home with antibiotics the day I came in and I was not to be admitted. THEY ADMITTED ME ANYWAY. I had to stay overnight and was not allowed to eat as all the residents insisted I needed surgery. Which was not fun considering I’m pregnant!! Waiting to see how much they try to bill me for this.

Blake Hospital has incredible staff. All the nurses were friendly, patient, and provided me with great care above and beyond my expectations. They made my environment comfortable, were quick to respond if I needed anything and made my experience as best as possible based on the circumstances. I certainly would recommend Blake Hospital to anyone I know.Thank you to all the great people at Blake Hospital.Regards,Mike J

First time I was ever in Blake Hospital for anything major. The staff was great from the Outpatient Center to Surgery Staff and the Hospital Room Staff. I dont have names but every person I came in contact with was super. If I could rate all of these people higher then a 5 star I would. Thank you for the super customer service and staffing team, it made my life easier for the time I had to stay.

The easiest pre-registration and the medical Staff that took care of everything in the breast center were AWESOME!

Although everyone was very pleasant, it also takes a very long time to get anything done.

The nurses on 3 north were amazing. They took very good care of me. The support staff there was equally as nice. Right down to housekeeping. Asking if you need anything and how you are feeling. Don’t want to say I loved my time there, because who really wants to be in the hospital? They made the experience more tolerable.

A great hospital. The value of care I received was top notch. The whole staff of doctors and nurses are rock stars in my book. Thank you for what you did for my family.

Very happy with the care I received. All the nursing staff were professional and pleasant. They had time to visit and answer any questions I had. I would recommend Blake Medical Center.Thank you.

I have no complaints, everybody was as nice and pleasant as i could have asked for. Real class act.

If I could give 0 stars I would. Several things went wrong while my mother was there. FIRST: a nurse made a mistake and put a DNR bracelet on my mom. No one called her family to ask about that and her spouse did not sign off on that order. I just so happen to go visit her and see the bracelet. I want to know why her nurses didn’t realize the error?! Why did I discover it and ask questions? She had a DNR bracelet on for a whole day, now what if something happened and they did not resuscitate her?! She was NEVER that type of patient! SECOND: they transferred her to SMH - didn’t call anyone and notify them of this move. We found out through a friend that saw my mom there and called to notify our family.THIRD- the room was dirty. Ants were crawling from the ceiling to the floor.

I was on vacation as I was going thru a health problem, that required I get fluids twice, after I explained my need and showed my Dr.s notes. I had to go thru the ER because I didnt have a local DR. on site, I got in pretty quickly.

Blake Hospital was amazing, they were fast to treat my husband very professional, caring and friendly. All the nurses doctors are incredible the surgeon and charge nurse called me after his surgery to update me which I didn’t expect, I would highly recommend Blake Medical Center!!

Very caring and patient staff! Blake Medical Center is a bright light in the Florida healthcare arena. The most positive experience Ive had with a medical facility. I absolutely will request Blake MC in the future.

Emergency Room intake was quick and efficient. Scan and review of scan was also efficient. Move quickly to 3North where care was caring and compassionate. Surgical suite was also efficient. Thanks to all!

My husband Danny had open heart surgery on 8/11/21. Unfortunately that was followed by a collapsed lung which delayed his release by about 3 weeks. I cannot say enough about the Physicians and the nurses and entire staff. I want to let some people know how much myself and my husband appreciate those involved in his tremendous care. Jen and Lloyd on the fourth floor for being so helpful and amazing. Melissa, Erin, Sara, Gabby, and the others who were so amazing in CVCIU. Also Third floor south, Leah, Faith, Charisma, Kelly, Sara, Dan, Alice and others that I’m sure I’m missing. Your kindness and patience and quality of care is like non I’ve ever witnessed. There is a shortage of nurses , but every single one of you did an outstanding job!👏👏👏👏👏👏 The staff in general down to the entry desk is unbelievable. Thankyou from the bottom of our hearts.♥️

This was my first hospital visit since I was a kid and I have to say the experience from start to finish was nothing short of amazing. I was brought to this hospital by ambulance due to being in a motorcycle accident and EVERYONE and I mean everyone made sure I was taken care of. Anyone who leaves a bad review or says anything bad about this place is 1000% full of it, they 100% are the best. Major shout out to every nurse who helped me and the ICU burn team (due to no space elsewhere) who took care of me in the three days that I was there. Truthfully an experience I will never forget. Thank you!

The staff at Blake are incredible. I only saw the people in the Burn wound care center but, They are awesome. Very respectful, courteous and they try to make you as comfortable as possible. Thank you for all the respect and self preservation you give to your patients.

My experience at Blake was nothing short of AWESOME!!!! Dr. Kallins and his team were phenomenal!!! Thanks so much to PT Niki and OT Tyler for getting me put together again. I am now able to move about with minimal assistance. After double knee surgery and shoulder surgery, I am extremely happy to say that I am on my way to becoming completely whole again. I would recommend this team to EVERYONE who may need orthopedic support. They will get you moving!!! :)

Most Of My Nurses Did A Great Job The One I Remember The Most Is Camilia Because She Was Always There And On Time When I Needed Someone. The Night Shift Was More Slow I Had To Wait About 30 Minutes When I Push My Call Light For A Nurse To Come And A Lot Can Happen In 30 Minutes. Night Shift Definitely Need A Meeting Or Something Cause It’s Like If You’re Not Checking In On The Residents Then What Are You Doing???

Excellent care! I was brought to ER for a dislocated shoulder and had immediate care. Dr. Lofsao was calming and patient with my care. Gabriela and Amy were super nurses, on top of my care the entire time and Tammy the RT was phenomenal. She calmed my breathing down when I was very anxious and in a lot of pain. The team took great care of me. Thank you so much!

Im really happy with the quick service. Everyone was very professional and worked quickly. Literally no wait time which was such a nice surprise. Highly recommended.

The quality of care here was very good. I loved the private room.My husband I liked the highly-skilled nurses that were so helpful, compassionate and caring. Their physical therapist was also very helpful, skilled and kind! We are sold on Blake Medical and their staff! kudos to you!

Thankful for the staff last week at Blake! I am from out of town and didnt know where to go. They did a great job taking care of me and getting me out in time to enjoy my vacation.

I was a patient there for a day and I can tell you the staff there was friendly and very supportive.I want to say a big thank you to all especially the anesthesiologist in the OR.Dont remember the name but he said to me you are VIP and we are going to take good care of you and thats exactly what they did. Thanks again.

Highly recommend having a swallow study at BMC. The therapist took the time to explain the test to me and my wife.

Outpatient check-in is very organized and with the attendants very personal pleasantry and attitude, he definitely loves his job! I felt he really cares about the patients and there comfort. Im embarrassed I dont recall his name but he definitely should be commended for the super job he does welcoming the patients and running a smooth and efficient check-in. He even reached out to the surgical holding area when I had been waiting for 45 minutes for someone to come get me. The head nurse that morning of May 19th was not so nice. Not going to say much about that as everyone is entitled to a bad day.Overall experience was 5 stars and found the staff to be very friendly and efficient. Surgery room staff was very friendly and good to put mending at ease. Woke up to a friendly attentive nurse in recovery and checked out shortly after.

I was visiting from out of town, and had to go to ER due to side effects of a medication.Everyone from signing in to out were amazing! The nurses, doctors, and staff were so professional and extremely helpful and kind.They kept me updated, showed compassion, and organized. I had a EKG, blood work, and chest Xrays. Every person was just as professional as the other.This ER runs like a fine machine, I was so impressed.Thank you,Mary Gastler

The nurses for the most part are exceptionally responsive to my needs. Since I had colitis, intervention by the nutritionists were welcomed as they examined so many aspects of my physical being. The technicians were kind as I went for many radiographic studies. The ER DO, Mathew, was gentle, kind, and complete in his assessments. Being placed on a septic watch was probably fortuitous. My major concern is that administration is taking the nursing out of nurses. Overloaded with too many patients, the nurse doesnt have time to enact many nursing skills taught in school or at the facility, and move on to the next patient too quickly. I often provided the info I needed for my nurse for one visit versus several visits during the shift. Only one nurse required the opposite = one question/need at a time. The overload is pushing nurses from bedside care to other supportive professions where their skills are needed.

I was transferred to this hospital after a trauma. I was placed in the hallway 4 1/2 hours. Then at midnight I finally got a room. And it was only at this point that they told me that my wife could not stay with me. Mind you we were at an hour and a half away from home. My wife is on her way out to go sleep in the car. thankfully I had a nurse on my floor able to at least make arrangements for my wife to sleep inside. I waited over 24 hours for my surgery to Amputate my appendage. when I was discharged I was only given a list of my pain medications? I was not given instructions on what to look for for infection or how to care for my wound. I felt like I was put in a room and forgot about. every patient should be treated with dignity and respect!!!

I had caught covid went to Blake memorial hospital they were very prompt at taking care of me gave me the antibodies made sure I was feeling okay and then I came home and felt better and like 4 days wonderful nurse very easy and fast to check in

I came to Blake medical for a minor emergency while on vacation. The ER was packed. However, I was highly impressed with how fast I was seen and taken care of. Dr Ryan the PA was fabulous as well as Nurse Ryan. Good experience for a not so good situation.

August, My Wife passed out and hit Her head(bloody mess). Turns out She was covid positive. When they let Her go Home, they let Her leave the ER by Herself, no escort no wheelchair,nothing. Since I wasnt allowed into help Her, I find this very disrespectful and negligible.

From the moment I walked in, it was obvious that customer service is a priority. I was completely lost and went into the wrong building. When I was steered back into the right direction, the young woman at the front took my temperature and gave me a mask and then a very friendly volunteer escorted me to where I needed to be, rather than point the way and tell me where to go. When I arrived for my procedure, I was also treated with the same respect. In addition, they are timely with their appointments and procedures; I was treated like I matter and asked if I had any questions before leaving. It was a great experience.

Excludeding I was admitted, it was a pleasant experience. The nurses were busy with the Coronavirus issue but they took good care of me. Thank you Blake Hospital 🏥

ER was packed, no room in hospital. The staff was friendly & understanding. They did there best taking care of everyone. They really cared.Surgeon & nurses all took great care of me. They explained everything, answered all questions, and took care of spouse too.When I was transferred to room the night nurse was so gentle & caring. The next day all the nurses were wonderful. I would choose Blake for any of my needs❤️ They were there when I needed them the most.

Love the new location....so nice!! Everyone is so nice and helpful too!!Mine was for the mammogram.

Great nurses on 4n. Jen and Dawn were great in caring for me!!

In and out in a hour and a half is great to me. Very helpful. X-rays and all. Doctor seemed like he cared. And nurses were awesome in emergency department. The nurses are the true heroes!!!

Great care, the adult doctors/specialists got me feeling better, did an inner ear reseting.There was a very very you doctor, not taking away from his knowledge, but in my he opinion he needs socially built up his confidence, believe not ready being that young. I am sure he aced the written part of being a doctor, but his bedside manner needs a lot of work. I dont remember is name, but seems to be from the central not being bias here some where in the middle east decent, which not problem , just his age.

Great staff great service made a bad situation a good thing I was in good hands very happy

As a Snowbird, it was never my intention to be admitted to Blake Hospital, but my Gallbladder had other plans. From the moment I was admitted, from the ER to my Room in 303A, I was met and treated by kind, sensitive and caring professionals and I felt I was always in good hands. Each person I encountered helped make my experience a positive one. I am thankful that I received such excellent care as a patient at Blake. Thanks to all for the attentive and comforting care I received.

Everyone was professional, caring and answered all my questions. I was in and out in 4 hours which I felt was great considering my procedure. Hats off to the Blake team!Jim Kelly

My husband was in cardiovascular ICS for a week. The care that my husband received was outstanding. Thanks to the care that my husband received from the doctor who performed the surgery to all the nurses my husband is a live today!

There were some nurses better than others but I think in their own way they all tried. The problem was I was on the 3rd floor where I think all of the patience needed a lot of help because they were unable to help themselves. When I used my call light it could be anywhere from 5 minutes to over half a hour before anyone might answer. THEN they would say they will tell your nurse which sometimes over an hour with no response I would have to call again. and then have to wait all over again. If you are in the bathroom they want you to pull for help to get back to bed BUT that call light is no different than the one by your bed with the intercom and if you cant answer they just hang up on you. SO you could fall or just need help getting up and you will just sit there They do not send anyone. When you complain the just say sorry they were just too busy. I could see that being a very big problem for them someday if not already. The nurses seem to have way more patience than they can handle and they dont seem to have any full time helpers. I didnt need a nurse to help me to bed but there was only a nurse there to do it, it seemed. If these are Blake policies to have more care for their share holders then the patients well being, it shows. They must have changed cooks while I was there because when I first started eating everything was good then one day it was all bad. The vegetables were all half cooked raw the meats were super dry and tough. The eggs were burnt. Also being in isolation the food servers I guess couldnt just bring in my food so I would have to call a lot to bring me my food in after it sat for a long time out there. It was all terrible. I had several doctors that were always taking over for one another but I guess they all did a good job that finally got me out of there. IF Blake was just to have more assistance nurses that can help with the IV alarms, do bathroom assistance, check for waters and help people just feel more comfortable that would go a long long way. I mean I was stuck in the bathroom close to an hour before I got the energy to get my self back to bed one time. I was both MAD and scared and just for Im sorry we are doing the best we can

Excellent Hospital! 1-10 they are a 10! Staff is great. They really care about you. I would recommend them to everyone! Keep doing what you are doing. Thanks for everything!!!!!

Having a bone density test and a mammogram was as pleasant as these things go. Following the pink arrows through the hospital made the location of the lab super easy to find. I had both tests done and was out in about 35 minutes. The nurse was friendly and professional. Ill return next year.

Totally satisfied with the entire experience associated with the Total Right Hip Replacement (Anterior) carried out successfully by Dr. Cashen, to whom and all involved, Im grateful. Making good post - op progress with home PT and simple exercises.

I found all of the staff at the Wound Center to be very professional and interested in the patient. Treatment Protocol was on target. Degree of care was very high! Any instructions were explained thoroughly in English [ not medicalize ] both in the stated word as well as written. Just cannot say enough good things about your Wound Center both in terms of care but also the entire staff !!

I would recommend you avoid the wound care. The receptionist is beyond rude, I believe her name was Courtney. She talks over you, not letting you get your concerns out, and then hangs up. This is not someone you should have as the face of your department.

I was balance billed, so I went to the hospital in person to deal with the issue. I was nit permitted to go to the business office. I was masked, but still not allowed in.It took me having BCBS conference call them to get them to fix my bill. They tried to bilk me for over $1100.The BCBS representative gave them a verbal lashing, and my bill was straightened out in less than 30 minutes. Unfortunately, I made numerous calls and inquiries that were total dead ends. Don’t contact them yourself. Have your insurer deal with them.This is a FOR PROFIT company. They tried to over bill me. I would normally never use this hospital, but my neurosurgeon needed a piece of equipment that was not available at Manatee Memorial.My insurance company was billed over $150k, and they still wanted to rip me off. Health care facilities should never be traded on the stock market.If they send you a bill after your insurance pays, call your insurer to verify they are not ripping you off.

1. You no longer see your primary care physician until after the exam completion, eliminating the long time knowledge and relationship the patient and doctor have developed.2. The doctor I saw ordered lab tests that in the past were covered but were not this time. The lab said they were ordered incorrectly and the doctor should correct them.3. Most important to me multiple calls were not acknowledged to discuss the matter which indicates to me, a lack of concern or trying to do too much with too little time.4. The medical service I received seemed satisfactory.

For me it was a pleasurable experience how everyone was nice that face mask every question I asked you today were dancing to my satisfaction and I would recommend it

In 67 years I have never experienced a ruder more incompetent medical facility than Blake. I took my wife into the ER for COVID treatment. After a long while, they stuck an IV needle in my wifes arm without treatment, but after two hours of waiting I demanded to know why she had not received the actual treatment. I was told there was a miscommunication between the ER and the pharmacy. We left without my wife having been treated. Go elsewhere.

Checked into emergency room and was seen within minutes. The staff was courteous and thorough. All staff members explained what they were doing and what it involved. I am very thankful my family has Blake hospital nearby.

When I arrived, I was quickly cared for, put on a chair and taken for care. I immediately informed the nurse that morphine does nothing, and only Toridol works to allow the back muscles to relax, allowing the stone to pass. But because another patient arrived at emergency shortly after me, the nurse had to go help the other. It was only a few hours later that the pain began to subside, and the stone passed sometime before noon. I could have been discharged soon after, but was told a kidney specialist was to see me before. Another 4, 5 hours later it became clear the specialist would not come, so the nurse allowed me to leave. So, I was at the hospital for a total of about 16 hours. Were it not for the no-show of the specialist, I could have been discharged in less than 12 hours, I would have given a 4 star rating, could have had some food, and gone home sooner. Besides those things, the staff deserves at least a 4+ star rating. Just anxiously waiting now to receive the bill. 😟

Everyone is patient , knowledgeable, caring at the physical therapy department.Very good experience with the task that needed to be accomplished, regaining strength and mobility in my right hand.

I was very disappointed to hear that the majority of the staff is refusing to get vaccinations. This denial of science and common sense does not work for the public good. In fact it is harmful when people who should respect science turn out to be deniers. The attendant who checked me in wore his mask below his nose and bragged about the fact that he wasnt going to get vaccinated. Other than that its a very nice emergency room..

I was hospitalized for a total right knee replacement. The surgery, by Dr. Alan Valadie, was very successful. My Blake Hospital was just as successful. The room and the contents were clean. Nursing staff was very attentive and any of my needs were tended to promptly. Dietary needs were met in friendly, courteous ways. Interruptions during the night were kept to a necessary minimum. Next day discharge was complete and swift. I won’t hesitate to use Blake Hospital again if the need for hospitalization arises in the future. I thank them for their services.

I only had a couple of problems that I think is caused by the covid problem at this time. Hospital communication with doctors. With two patients in a room my roomy had two visitors everyday for the whole visitation took a act of congress for me to get to the john to pee. All of my nurses were the best they could be. Thanks for the help getting me on the way to getting better.

I sat in a room for over 3 hours not including the wait in the lobby before I was taken back. I went in for a severe burn on my hand and wrist. The doctor came in took a pic of it and left barley even speaking to me. After 3+ hours of waiting he came back and said there is nothing they can do.That I have to drive up to st. petersburg for treatment and to get a skin graft. The wound was never cleaned, wrapped, medicated, nothing. After getting that news I waited another hour for my referral paperwork. I then received a bill in the mail for over 5 thousand dollars. They did absolutely nothing for me, waisted my time, then slapped me with a huge bill.

While a patient at the Blake Cardiac ICU I was treated like I was the most important person in the hospital. I observed team work at its best. I observed and felt like the concern for me and my wellbeing was the only purpose for the staffs existence. The caring I got was phenomenal. I can not thank Jen F. , Tanya, Selma, and Jaime enough for their help and encouragement. Even when I was not in their direct care they stopped on the way by my door to see if I was needing anything. Their care was so important to my recovery. I was bewildered they explained. I was hurting they comforted. THE BEST PEOPLE IN CARE ARE IN CARDIO ICU! THANK YOU.

Been in the trauma center for few days!Im reserving this time to thank the hospital as a whole! I was extremely well treated and Im thankful for every single thing! I wont suggest you to go there very often but if you ever need youll be in good hands! Even the food is amazing

Wonderful staff. Very caring individuals. Looked after me around the clock . I have no complaints - excellent medical service.

The staff was kind and caring at the ER. This was my first ER visit to the ER and I once had surgery at the hospital a few years ago. They were very efficient and responsive to my needs. I just wish that when you need records released to another physician outside of the Blake system they would make it faster to get results.

Where do I start? I went to this hospital a week ago for high blood pressure and it was 229-114! I was told that I was in grave danger and asked if I had a will then I was rolled out into the ER waiting room with no medication to bring down the blood pressure. Wait! I thought I was in grave danger? I sat out there for six hours with nobody checking my blood pressure, no medicine to lower it. It took Someone going to a doctor telling them that I was basically out in the wheelchair. Finally I made it to a ER bed and from there I still wasn’t given any medicine to lower the blood pressure. The charge nurse ordered it she even apologized to me. However the male nurse was too busy walking around flexing refusing to give me the second dose of medicine that the charge nurse had ordered.After I was admitted to the hospital (another four hours had passed) the nurses were too busy complaining about their jobs, the instructions from their doctors, and yes even complaining to us patients. They also complained about their personal life to us. Angie & Jojo should compassion and tried to help as much as possible.I was tested with all kinds of tests and still to this day I do not know the results of the tests. The doctors? They kept asking if I was on street drugs (that’s laughable) then had all of my blood samples and urine so they knew I wasn’t on drugs (I might have been acting off because of sitting in the ER waiting room for ten hours with “in grave danger” blood pressure) needless to say they also seemed like they didn’t care and I was a bother as well.I was sent home without medication the following day while my blood pressure was still “dangerously high.”I did have to return back to Blake Medical Center later Wednesday night with the same issue. The doctor and nurse could not believe that I was sent home with high blood pressure and no medicine. They helped me that night and apologized to me.I will never step foot in this hospital again and I suggest you do not either. Because if you have a trauma they act as if they don’t know what to do nor do they care. But hey, you got my insurance money and deductible.Do not tell me that you appreciate my feedback and apologize. I want something done about how you treat people who trust you with their lives! Do something!

Best care Ive experienced in my years of being in hospital. The Medical Staff top of the line care. All the Doctors explain all your care and how it will be done. I felt very blessed and special. God bless Blake Medical Center.

I wouldn’t even give one star to this hospital if I had that choice. This has been the longest two weeks of our lives and we do not appreciate the run around of all the departments telling us it’s not their fault, it’s another department. You all work together! And your are supposed to be working for the people. We are appalled by the lack of care from this faculty and our mother passing at your place and we still don’t have her yet. Ridiculous and unacceptable. Her funeral could have been tomorrow and now we are all scrambling all over the untied states still trying to get her body from y’all so that we can get some closure. Absolutely absurd. You are in too popular of a city to be so negligent with time and peoples lives.

My visit here was great. The professionals addressed my situation extremely fast and made me very comfortable in my extreme situation. My family and I are greatly thankful to everyone involved and to the whole organization.

Treated asap, very thorough with tests. very pleased with care.

I accompanied my mother yesterday at Blake Hospital where she received excellent treatment for an MRI and Bone scan. All the staff we had interactions with were so friendly, kind and helpful. Volunteers Dianne in the Outpatient Check-In Office and Ed at the front door were just the icing on the cake. We had a very pleasant experience through what could have been a very stressful day. Lunch at the Cigar City Smokers food truck outside was just what we needed during the long day!

Very Discussed how my brother was treated he when to the hospital feeling short of breath because he has covid. They told him that he had to go home and deal with it at home that they couldnt do anything for him he went to manatee memorial hospital he was diagnosed with pneumonia since had a collapse lung and blood cots shame on this so called doctors that are supposed to help us..

From admittance until discharge in Outpatient I was treated wonderfully. The staff at Blake were kind, considerate and caring for my care. I highly recommend Blake Medical Center

I had a triple hernia operation that went extremely well. I was in and out of the hospital in one day. The doctor and staff were excellent, professional and caring.

I’ve had a horrible experience at one of the clinics here. Would never have sought treatment at said clinic if I’d been able to foresee the care I’d receive. Judgemental and rude nurses and staff ignored my concerns and medical issues. A medical procedure was done to me while I was asleep without my prior knowledge of it being a possibility and to which I would not of agreed too. I was bullied, forced to sign documents I didn’t consent too and was not treated with respect and dignity. I would not recommend this facility to anyone for treatment or surgery of anything.

EVERONE WAS SOOOO HELPFUL AND NICE

Shout-out to my nurses for making my stay there absolutely amazing. Angie, Sam, Kathia, Faith and the few others whos name I forgot (Im sorry about forgetting) were the best. Even having a terrible roommate they made sure that I was all smiles. Everyone only ever says the bad about this place (which the food is 😂) but these nurses will make sure you leave smiling!

The nurses are amazing but dont plan on doing anything the day of your appointment because you will not get it done i had an appointment at 12:30 pm and im still waiting to go back at almost 4 o clock all i need is a new splint.

I was in room 452 and the nurses that took care of me were great

I was very pleased with the care I received. The ICU staff, admissions associate, and cleaning staff were very professional and friendly. The staff kept me informed regarding my care and provided good discharge instructions. In addition, I am pleased with the information available on the My Health One website. I am thankful for the excellent care I received.

I was incredibly pleased with how nice every single person there is. At every stage of my procedure the doctors and staff were amazing. They were all compassionate and caring. I could not ask for more at a time like this. Thank you!

I had 3 tests scheduled in an afternoon. All tests were done and I was out the door in just over an hour. Everyone was polite and very professional.

The medical team that took care of my left total hip replacement was truly spectacular. From Dr. Alan Valadies expertise and gifted hands and his staffs logistical (Heather) and pre-op education (Rob) to Blakes extremely attentive, caring and talented nursing crew (Shannon, Natasha, Lauren, Liz, Rhonda and Nancy) and physical therapist wizard (Chief Rollie), every interaction along the way with my team was a positive one. Their concern was always my comfort and well-being. From Robert and Sue in Outpatient Registration, Loris thorough pre-op run-down on what I needed to know about the operation, to Shauna at the front reception desk who recognized I needed a wheel chair to get to back Outpatient Registration and then took me all the way back there; very special. I never had a moments concern about my care while with my Blake Medical Center team. I highly recommend them to anyone needing good care.

The Womens Center at Blake Medical Center was such a pleasant surprise. I loved the tranquil and peaceful ambience as soon as you entered the center. The staff was kind and patient, and took the time to explain every single step to make me feel calm. I highly recommend The Womens Center at Blake Medical Center!

Entered through the ER with chest pain. They were very nice and effective. I has Angioplasty while there. The Cath lab employees were all amazing and helped me feel relaxed about the procedure. The Director, Tom even help me.My only issue was when admitted to room 419B it was terrible trying to get someone to answer the call button. I realize the nurses are busy with other patients but the wait time was ridiculous. You really need to consider adding more nurses.Blake is my hospital so I will only go there but your ratio of nurse per patient needs to be addressed.

Very Professional. I went in the ER and had a pain-tingling feeling in my left arm. I thought I was having a heart attack. They took me in immediately. No wait. I was admitted and stayed overnight. All the personnel were very kind and professional. My wife is a Doctor and she was highly impressed. I would highly recommend Blake Medical Center.

Thankfully I had a successful surgery but this hospital is horribly not clean! Rooms, bathrooms, etc ..

Blake did an amazing job at getting me seen immediately. I had severe back paid. Everything was top notch, except the attending physician. He was unaware of ANY pain meds other than percocet. I’m allergic to that stuff. He gave me steroids and sent me away. No caring. No understanding of how to treat people. Other than him, everything was great unfortunately, I was in severe pain long after that visit.

My appointment was to get my blood typed before starting a new line of chemotherapy. I have been to Blake only a couple of times (ER visits by my wife). All was very good. It was easy to make appointment. Facility was clean. Everyone was friendly & helpful. Service was very good.
