Reviews of Ajax & Pickering Health Centre in Ajax

This hospitals ER deserves nothing more than a 0 star rating.
Patrons Liability is high with Main Entrance and parking lot having several burnt lamps leading you in almost total darkness. (Think twice,, Trip and fall would be worth the lawsuit but don't expect to be treated properly. LOL.)
Interior and exterior is filthy, you will no doubt notice several staff are miserable and extremely unprofessional, on a positive note their volunteers treat you with respect, professionalism and are very compassionate..
Triage is the first dose of unprofessionalism, your greeted with attitude like your taking them away from their real job, you may be questioned on the validity of your visit even after explaining your ailments including your family Dr's recommendations to go to the ER if the situation worsens.)
The 2 min standardized questions your asked are vague so your best bet is to exaggerate your symptoms and pain level to ensure you can be taken seriously. (**You will be black listed to the bottom of the pile if triage deems your situation is not worth the ER's time, they have proven to trump your family Dr's recommendations..)
I have been a resident of Ajax for 4 decades, watching the continuous erosion of this facility is disheartening.. I have noticed a large decline of complete and professional services over the last 15 years, discussions with neighbors and residents about my experiences are echoed among many..
Several documented complaints with the same or similar experiences are not enough to make a positive change, not sure how this Health Network has let one of their own slip so far below their Network Standard..
I have been advised by many to go to Port Perry Hospital for a much better experience.
Note to all,, don't waste your time going to Ajax ER. You can drive the x2 hours to Port Perry and back, still save time and in all probability leave there with confidence and satisfaction you received good to excellent health care..
