PeaceHealth St. John Medical Center - Longview (WA)

Kaylee Perry Im only giving 5 stars because the staff here is nice and they listen well and always help out when my husband has stomach episodes. My husband and i came in again today first time in a few months hes gotten sick like this, he has a cancerous cyst in his esophagus that causes issues with his stomach so he’s on a special diet until we find out what triggers him. Sometimes he eats something that sets him off and he ends up puking and dry heaving until he cant stand and he can’t keep any fluids down so i bring him here to get an IV with fluids so he doesnt dehydrate! The doctors, the nurses, the medical assistants, everyone here is wonderful they always listen to me and do great with him. What saddens me is today i was in the waiting room with him and there was a hand full of people staring at him while he was puking and dry heaving, and making comments and telling people not to sit next to us because they thought he was contagious even though i had clarified he is not and that its a pre existing condition. It became so uncomfortable to the point i wheeled my husband into the hallway and waited there and stood in front of him so no one could stare. Everyone in the waiting room didnt even show signs of being sick, no one was coughing or puking or pale or had any visible sickness. They all just sat around on their phones chit chatting and staring at my husband and making comments, and half of them got into a room before my husband who is in agonizing pain. One of the women in there kept announcing that she had cancer, and was even being disrespectful to the staff, and talking down of the staff saying no one here knows how to do their job, she offered me these odd candies for my husband and I politely turned her down and she immediately caught an attitude. Y’all need to grow up. Im sure if you were in my husbands position or my position you wouldn’t enjoy that either. So folks think before you speak.

Cascadia Views I will start off by saying I have a health condition that sends me to the hospital/urgent care a couple times a year. I have been thoroughly unimpressed with the quality and professionalism Ive experienced in Vancouver. Its been shocking, to be honest. I found myself needing medical attention again. I decided to try the Legacy Salmon Creek folks, because I didnt want to re-visit any of the places Ive been to previously. What a change! I mean, the ER was packed, so I spent hours just sitting there. Im not mad. Its our new insurance system posing as a healthcare system. But, they were processing people as quick as they could and did their best to assure us they were on top of things. The nurses were professional and everyone I talked to seem to really listen to me. I wont say going to the hospital is a good experience, but they did a good job of making suck less. Also.....a nice clean building!

Lacie We were able to get our kitten in the same day for a rashy legion on his neck. We saw Dr. Chanel Baron, who was very personable and kind, and even stayed late for us on a holiday weekend to try and help our baby. Her course of treatment fixed the issue for his neck. All of the staff was helpful and efficient, and their communication is above and beyond any medical or vet clinic Ive ever dealt with. We ended up calling this office again in November when our kitten swallowed a toy and had an obstruction. East Padden got us in same day, and was able to even get him on schedule that day for emergency surgery! They were transparent on costs and expectations and communicated updates every step of the way. Dr. Baron and the entire team literally saved our kittens life. Thank you East Padden Team!

Hope H Service is always top notch. A little longer than normal for wait times on this particular visit, but the staff are always courteous and prepared to answer all questions.

Beverly Bellmore Short wait time, friendly staff, good care. We recently moved to Vancouver from Central Oregon. All vets we contacted to start care were not taking new patients. We tried St Francis on recommendation from another vet. I was pleasantly surprised that it was an emergency clinic but were taking regular clients. We felt very satisfied with the efficiency of the vet and staff and their compassionate care. We’ll continue to take our Honey Pie to St Francis for all her medical needs.

Richard Samuels A fantastic service staffed entirely by volunteers. They prepare donated durable medical equipment for reuse. They do not charge recipients for the equipment. They also provide donated supplies at no charge. The people are incredibly helpful. I visited and they helped me select a hospital bed for my 93 year old stepfather. They held it until I could return with a truck, gave me assembly instructions and helped me load it. Thank you.

Kitty Wallace For the last few weekends Ive had to visit this urgent care for a incision rebandaging (surgery related). I have had a wonderful experience with the check in desk and nurses. I never have to wait long and yes maybe my definition is different than others but I never make an appointment and and I check google first to see if they are busy. I feel this urgent care is a very comfortable place to go and since its the holiday I would like to also say that they have the best decorations in the waiting room.

Voyles Lisa “BeautifullyFlawed” I have worked at Salmon Creek Post Acute for 1 year now. I have finally found a home here at SCPA, where I can work side by side with a team dedicated to caring for others. The therapy department is amazing! Unlike other places I have worked , there is a higher level of accountability, a mindset towards solutions and genuine support for staff and patients alike. I can honestly say if I had a loved one who needed skilled nursing, this is the place Id want them to be. Id recommend this facility to anyone in my field looking for a job.

Torri Knight *This review is specifically for the Birthplace at Willamette Falls Providence* I recently gave birth at the Oregon City Willamette Falls Birthplace and had a really great experience. The staff were absolutely lovely, attentive, helpful, gentle, all the things you could want in your team helping you deliver a baby and through postpartum. The facility was also nice, and the rooms were very big! My tall husband even got decent sleep on the couch in the room, which was also big and comfy. I would totally recommend this medical center for delivering a baby, my husband and I left feeling it was a really good experience.

Mickey Mishra You know what? Lets talk about the Real unsung People who never get talked about. The People who run the Canteen and VCS there. Look at this Taco Salad Boys! Its AMAZING SAUCE! The Cooks there are TOP! Burgers ALWAYS hot of the Grill. And the PRICES ARE AMAZING GUYS! The place to eat is sort of Fast Food in seating but has Nice views. They Also keep the area as well and clean. They dont put out anything to Bus or clean your tables, but thats the only thing they do not have. So same as Ikea. Lots of Vending Machines here for GeeDunk and the staff in the store is SUPER nice! They have a Small selection of stuff but its a Small store. They also have a Nice selection of Salads. Not as Much as I would like. But they are good for the size of the store/ Cafeteria area. My fav part about the CVS Canteen is the Breakfasts! You can Get your Omelets and Eggs made any way you want them. And Breakfast tastes great BTW! The View of the Dining room is nice too. You can see the Golf carts go by and do their rounds. The Palm Trees and the way the Landscaping is done almost looks like Hawaii or Florida Motife. Cell Phone Service there is CDMA. (Verizon / Sprint ) So those with T Mobile may have trouble getting their Hot spot to work there. Or Good cell service with T_mobile And there is no WiFi there for Public use. THe Vancouver Campus is one of my Favs. Please check them out. And make sure to say a Gracious thank thank you. They are really above and Beyond great.
