Catharina Ziekenhuis - Michelangelolaan 2

This is the worst hospital experience i ever had in my life. The surgeon did their best jobs to do what they need to do to save people life. But The one that ran around the hospital thinking that they are so great give the hospital the bad name, reputation and cold hearted treatment that they can give to human. I have transferred to this hospital for 4 bypass surgery. Everything was great up to the point that surgeon helped me without a doubt, the experience after that is like living hell in the place that you should think it should be a safe place for sick people. It is a big hospitals and I try to understand that general doctors and nurses deal with very sick people or bypass surgery everyday but they should have a second thought that all these patients don’t have bypass surgery experience like a pro. They expect patients to know drills that they do everyday. I woke up from surgery in CCU for couple hours and being transferred to normal room expect to stand up, clean myself, and understand all the drills. When i need helped, the promise was there but the nurses disappeared. I fell so unwelcome. After being treat so badly many times after the forth days of operation. One lady young doctor walked into my room and said i should discharge and go home. No need to go back to home hospital that they sent me in for surgery at the first place. I sometimes wonder how these people would ever try to see from the other persons perspectives. Or even remembering why they want to be a doctor or a nurse at the first place. Why they leave their kind hearted behind because they think they work in one of the best heart hospitals in NL. I would give 5 stars for the surgeon but for the rest I wish I could give None.

We were expecting our daughter to be born here but due to a software update on the 27th of februari they only allowed very urgent cases. So she was delivered in Veldhoven instead. The next day they sent an ambulance to pick her up and they gave us a spacious, comfortable room in the incubator department since she was born early. It's a shame the covid rules denied my father to visit her, even though he then just recently had a heart problem. We would like to thank the nurse team for eventually bending the rules and allowing him to visit his granddaughter. Especially since her grandmother passed away in the same hospital last year before she could see her.

This place didn't attend me even though I had a Dutch Insurance and a European Insurance. This place has the worst costumer service I have seen in a hospital ever. By the way, it is a public hospital and still they treat the patiences like they are only money bags. I have a fever and a sore throat and still they didn't attend me.

Clean hospital and beautiful too. From outside has waiting shed for the clients. They also have big parking area. When you enter the hospital you can see the reception right away, there are also men and women standing in front of the door to ask if you need an assistance or a help. They have 8 ( if Im not mistaken ) big and wide elevators. They also have signs or ( bordjes ) to show you the right way. This hospital has also canteen, bakery flower shop hair salon etc. If you have health insurance you dont have to pay. In Nederland it is must to have your own insurance otherwise you have to pay a lot.

This hospital is amazingly amazing!. I was so satisfied with their service. Nice and clean room, helpful and caring staffs all makes me comfortable through my heavy labor day. The nurses (Anne Marie and Floor) of course other nurses and doctors also are professional and really caring. They help me through the days while my husband can’t beside be at night due to health issue. The food also so delicious compare with other ‘hospital food’. I didn’t expect to much for food at hospital, but the food (dinner)that they prepared is super! My baby boy was born at this hospital on 6th nov 2019. I stayed at kraamsuite 14.

I can't say any bad word about work of doctors, my condition was tragic, when i came to the hospital, but they lifted me up. Good medical care, additional consultations with different specialists if needed, high quality medical equipment, helpful personnel, comfortable beds, really tasty food. Some methods of treatment are untypical, what can be frightening for unprepared person, but in general, it works, as i found on my own. One star less, because some nurses /not every, but there is small amount/ are trying to be smarter than Internet, and taking own decisions instead of taking consultation with doctors, or even patients experienced with their own sicknesses, so it comes to risky situations, like unwanted rise up of sugar level for diabete, because 'I know better', or treating patients like kids or idiots.

NOT RECOMENDED, OVER INVOICING!! I was charged for a surgical tooth extraction (198€) when it was an uncomplicated tooth extraction (50€). 71€ for assesing and discussing a X-ray. They probably spent 10 seconds to see my wisdom was straight. 300€ in total when I did ithe same at the emergency dentist for 90€. I feel robbed.

The maternity department is staffed by incompetent, disrespectful, unprofessional hacks that let me sit in a waiting room, as my daughter went for epidural. They decided to do a C-section without saying a word to me as I sat there. No regard for the life of my daughter or grand daughter. Then of course when I called a woman who ide tidied herself as a nursing supervisor, refused to give me her name. Real professionals!
