I wish there were more stars I can give to the Heart Institute. The doctors, surgeons, nurses and hospital staff are fantastic and really care for their patients. Being a training hospital they are always innovating with new procedures and technologies. The lab technicians are great answering questions about the tests while giving patients confidence that you are in good hands. Even the orderlies are friendly and give kind words of encouragement. There is also an excellent rehab program that patients can take advantage of. The hospital staff give strength, hope and empathize with families and patients during troubling times. It is no wonder why the hospital is so successful in improving the quality of life for so many.

Yesterday, Nov. 12, I had a PET scan on my heart. The technicians, Bonnie and Valerie, were wonderfully caring and actually made me feel relaxed before and during the scan. Bonnie chatted easily about general things and made me feel right at home. My breathing was a bit of an issue but Valerie took it in her stride and in no time, we got rolling. Both ladies let me know what was going to happen each step of the way and were so comforting! I can't thank them both enough for the way they handled me and the test in general. Well done, Bonnie and Valerie!!

The Doctors, Nurses and all of the support staff (volunteers included) were absolutely & incredibly caring, considerate and kind to both my 90 year old father (the patient) and myself (patient advocate) in the process leading up to & following a successful TAVI procedure. Everyone there went out of their way to ensure the patient was well looked after without every making him feel like 'just a number'. Kudos to all! We are all very grateful.

Had a pacemaker put in on the 8th of October. Not one complaint. Everything was taken care of with minimal stress or worry. Everything was clearly explained and the staff was absolutely outstanding!

Brought my wife’s 86 yr old brother in yesterday for tests for shortness of breath and to have his pacemaker checked. I am very appreciative when I meet a doctor or support staff (nurses/orderlies/admin) who has not become jaded from the difficult work he/she does especially in the midst of this COVID mess. Maybe everyone at UOHI was having a really good day yesterday. Too many coincidences for that theory. We couldn’t believe the empathy, compassion and efficiency between departments to make his same day admission a possibility. Dr Higinson, his admin staff, the pacemaker clinic doctor and staff, and last but not least the entire team of angels on H5 led by a real-life angel (Sarafel). Thanks to all of you for making this happen as smoothly as anyone could hope for.
