Medical personnel at this hospital twice saved my life when I tore my aorta and "coded" when my lungs failed. I have nothing but praise for the training, expertise and compassion expressed by all members of the staff, from the doctors and surgeons down to the lady who cleaned my room. I expected a certain level of service based on their salary and training, but I found that service was performed at a much higher level - from the heart. I highly recommend this hospital for all your medical needs.
The triage nurse grabbed my face to pull my mask up i tried telling him I couldn't breathe he told me your vitals are fine you'll be fine.
Have now been waiting in the waiting room for 2 hours. Was sent over from walk in to get CT done got told I'm not emergent enough so we'll see me when they get to me. Have been having chest pain and trouble breathing for hours now.
I had a generator replacement (ICD) here last week, and I had to share how impressed I am with the care I received, the level of professionalism they displayed, and the overall excellent experience I had at this hospital. Excuse the length of this review, I think it's important to include details.
It was my first time there, as I live over an hour away. They don't have anyone to perform the surgery I needed in my small town, and this was the closest place for me to go. From the minute I walked in, to the moment I left, things went so smoothly. This place runs like a well oiled machine. My procedure was scheduled for 1:30 pm and was outpatient. My pre-op procedures went quickly and efficiently. My procedure happened on schedule, which is seriously impressive. Every single person that I interacted with this day was kind, compassionate, professional and just plain awesome. My nurse that day was Lori, and I truly enjoyed having her take care of me. She was easy to talk to, and went above and beyond to prepare me and help me with the anxiety I was experiencing before my procedure. She got my IV in on the first try, and I can be a hard stick. She was obviously an experienced nurse, and a damn good one. My anesthesiologist was super professional, and I appreciated that he took the time to actually sit down and talk with me. I have had other anesthesiologists in the past that seemed rushed and didn't have very good bed-side manner. The nurses and surgical techs in the operating room were amazing. They were so nice and funny, too, making sure that I was okay while they prepared everything for my procedure. I went under general, and everything went perfectly, as far as I know lol. I woke up quickly after it was over, and had a good recovery. I was made comfortable when I needed it immediately afterwards, and felt very well taken care of. I was given clear and simple instructions for my aftercare, and education about my new device. Every step of the way was made as easy as could be. My surgeon was very good, but not a big talker lol. Definitely a professional first, as surgeons usually are. It's his job to perform surgery, not to make friends with me, so I didn't take it personally that he wasn't more personable. The only other hospital that I have been to that operated this smoothly, and this professionally was the Mayo Clinic, in Rochester MN which is a center of excellence. So, to say that I had an experience at this hospital, that is on par with the one I had at Mayo, is a very good thing. My room was clean, every proper precaution taken and standard was met in my opinion. I didn't feel rushed out, they kept my son, who was with me completely informed to everything as it was happening after I went under. It was a stellar experience from start to finish. Couldn't have asked for more.
Worst Er attention in the world. If you have an emergency don't go there. Today i went to the walk in clinic and then the doctor from there sent me to the ER bc i still feeling really bad. I waited for 5 HOURS AND A HALF for someone to say something or call me to check on me and nothing. When we ask for any update to the nurse she said “no update, no time frame”. Then i felt disgusted bc a gentleman went to ask if they can help with his wife (she had her leg covered in blood) and they said look bring here inside, take this gauze. When i saw that i said im getting out of here. So just don't go if you don't want to waste
your time
Absolutely incredible care!!!! My husband was flown in by helicopter after 20 min. Of CPR without a pulse. They literally brought him back to life!!!! From the surgeon, Dr. Ellis, to the cleaning crew, to the CNA’s, to the nurses, and those serving food… the care and compassion was unmatched. We live in Minneapolis, but will make the journey for our continued care, to Wausau. It was that good! Living Grateful that a place of this caliber was in the Northwoods!!
Choose St. Clare’s!! My father was improving here in the ICU, but when he would go to the intermediary unit he would get worse. Finally that unit killed him. I had to watch them remove his feeding tube, and high flow oxygen, and give him 2 huge doses of morphine and another medication. It was horrible. I’m 100% convinced he would have survived had they gone to St. Clare’s. (P.S. I loved Dr. Anderson Joseph.)
Absolutely DISGUSTED with the Emergency Department!! Waited for a little over 3 hours for my daughter to be seen for severe headache, neck pain, nausea and vomiting. I understand that more critical people come first, but at least 6-7 people went before my daughter. When checking in with the receptionist every hour, she couldn’t tell us anything. She had no idea what was going on. Also, always on her phone.
Very very disappointed with this ER department!!! We left after 3 hours and 20 minutes.
Very awesome place never got to come here yet? Wanted to post I was in resale shop in Wisconsin rapids I meet a nurse from here buying up all the clothes I was in line she ask if I mind waiting a few minutes because she had more shopping I said sure take your time I said why are you buying all three clothes she said I work at aspirus hospital Wausau I buy them because people sometimes don't have clothes to go home in so I buy what I can with my own money post this public that's a hometown hero really very inspiring heart warming that people still care that's what needs to be said these days I didn't get her name but I shook her hand congratulations miss unknown thank you for being a angel ????
