Hospital Of The University Of Pennsylvania

THIS IS THE WORSE PLACE TO GO THE MINIMUM WAITING TIME TO BE SEEN BY A DOCTOR IS TWO HOURSSS!!!. I set in the ER waiting room for about four hours just to be discharged in two , I wasn’t hooked up to any monitors while I was being treated and I found that very unsafe because I have asthma and anything could’ve happened and they wouldn’t have even had any knowledge of it especially for the fact my nurse only came in my room twice throughout the entire two hours. I don’t recommend this place to anyone

My husband has been going to U Penn for at least, four years. He uses all testing departments and has five doctors in different departments. Three of those doctors have saved his life from various illnesses that the myriad of doctors here in NJ could not help him. Kept him on drugs, drugs, drugs. After his first surgical procedure, he went off some of these drugs and after the third, he was off ten drugs!! Ten drugs he does not take anymore because his medical issues were addressed and addressed correctly! We now go for check ups......check ups!!!!! Great doctors, great nurses, wonderful staff in all departments!! Thank you, U Penn!

The most horrific experience of my all hospital experiences ever (and I have worked in many). On oncologic floor in a room for Chemo patients was the wife of a patient in bed 1 with her children and grandchild. As our loved one went to use the private bathroom in the room passing by at least 7-10 visitors there were women’s toiletries in the bathroom and a toddler running around in the room with his toys and all family members using the room and bathroom as if It were their hotel room. At one point the family bought in sandwiches that reeked of raw onions making our loved one more nauseous than he already was. We complained over and over again to the nursing staff on all shifts and were told at one point that WE could take our loved one way down the hall to the visitors lounge! UNBELIEVABLE ! Not to mention that GERMS are the number one threat to Chemo patients! We literally even waited for the night time charge nurse who just shrugged his shoulders! Thank heaven we got him out in 2 days and will NEVER return to this joke of a hospital. I wonder with the reputation of the hospital; if all that is important has gone with the wind. If you need the expertise of the U of P doctors use the 2 other Penn hospitals because they MUST be more concerned for all of their patients and much more professional that the one at 34th and Spruce! If I could give this a 0 in stars I certainly would have.

Friendly, empathetic, knowledgeable staff, big rooms, clean facility, convenient parking & shuttle, reasonable rates. Helped my ailing mother tremendously! Thank you HUP!

I went there for a job interview. This place was built massively. The buildings are state of art. The layout of signs to help patient navigation was very good. Staff are super nice at the reception. Of course my purpose of the visit is different from other people but I felt hope attending the place and the people I met seems very caring. They have a cyclotron for proton beam therapy for cancer which is one of the only few systems attached to the hospital. The physician team works very closely with the departments of science to innovate things.
