  Sad that I have to give even 1 star for this but anyways here it goes. We went in because my wife had a fever 2 days after some rather aggressive surgery (the doctor that did the surgery in Toronto East General said to do this). So we got into the RVH and was asked to come to one of the nurses sitting there to take our information and given 3 tylenol for the fever right now. So far so good. Then we were asked to sit down and wait to be called. Great. We got asked to come back to the nursing station to basically repeat the information and give them her medical information... A second time... Then asked to sit down again in the same area.... Then called back again for more information... 3 times! We were then told to go into another waiting room and wait for a doctor... or nurse that'll take her blood whichever will comes first... Turns out neither in this case as we sat there for 1 1/2 hours when we saw 1 nurse have an argument with another nurse... You see what happened was apparently the nurse that was taking the blood decided it'd be super cool to go take a 2 hour break without telling anyone to fill in after them. So once she decided to take some blood from the people there she decided to go on another 15 minute break... Because you know... She must've been tired from taking 3 people's blood in the small window of time she was there. She decided to mention this to the other nurse and told her she was leaving at 10:30 to which the original nurse replied, and I quote here, "I don't care I'm out at 10. Do whatever I don't care what you do." My wife was in a lot of pain from the surgery already and just wanted to go home after being ignored for this long by everyone. Plus a few emergencies had come in so there was no way we were being seen at a reasonable time. So I asked one of the nurses if she could take my wife's temperature to see if she still had a fever. Fortunately it had broken so we bugged out of there. THANKFULLY there's another emergency hospital closer to where we are right now. So ya. The next time we go to the RVH Emergency Room will be on the same day that Satan goes skating to work.

  Very rude nurses. Really unorganized and unprofessional. They make u wait for so many hours. They kicked some people out of their room so they could clean the room and they said that they could go back after but they did not let them. So the people had to wait 10 hours for another room. The nurses are really rude and unfriendly. U would probably come here at 12:00 pm and u will leave at 12:00 pm 2 days later and 99.9% of this time is the time we wait. Then when u get checked up, the doctors will probably say you r fine even though u might be dying from cancer.

  The nurses and doctors are great and do their best to help you out. As well scheduled appointments (ultrasound, echo, etc.) work out fine and are mostly on time. But the organization of this hospital doesn't work at all. Once the shift is changing you will be asked the same questions again and again. It seems like no one really knows what's going on with you nor puts anything on a file. If you go through Emergency it takes sometimes hours to go through. Once I came in at 9.30 pm and was treated at 2:35 am. It happened in the meantime also twice that I was sent home while being scheduled for a surgery and I had to come in the next day again with more wait time. It is already enough dealing mentally with a surgery, but to be sent home and having to come back, makes it worse. To be honest I wouldn’t want having a severe problem treated in this hospital.
