What patients say
5,226 on GoogleThe hospital management system is very bad… a very terrible experience. My mother was admitted to this hospital. The staff have little knowledge and the security guards are very arrogant and behave badly. The hospital has only one visiting hour—from 6 pm to 7 pm. There are no visiting hours for the rest of the day, as if they want to prevent patients’ families from seeing their irresponsibility and negligence. That’s why they keep the visiting hours restricted. This is not a hospital, it feels like an asylum. A very bad experience—never go to this hospital; it’s a complete mess.
The hospital is absolutely trash. The wait times are ridiculous, with staff loitering around unable to offer help or assistance in the slightest. Ludicrous to think that a doctor doesn’t know where the Cardiology unit is? It was an absolute disaster today with my dad. We arrived at 12 in the afternoon still struggling to even find assistance or get help in any form. And this experience wasn’t just limited to me, we had people in crowds furious with the service. People waiting since 8 am in the morning. Clueless staff, atrocious service, no regard for the patient or their family. If you can afford a private hospital, never ever try to get treatment in this hospital. Private practice prices with treatment worse than a government hospital.
I have consulted with Dr Sharmistha Basu mam Clinical Psychologist at BP Podder Hospital for my Aunt who was suffering with chronic depression; Dr Sharmistha was wonderful professional and has wonderful intervening skills. We started seeing the patient improvement after 2nd visit. Thank You Dr Sharmistha Basu mam and BP Podder Hospital
Very bad service.. They didn't pick phone and not even talk properly. Very unprofessional behaviour. Can't get any type of help from their side. I did a pet ct scan from B P poddar hospital.and after 1 week I still not get my report though I have paid my full payment in advance. They gave me a whatsapp no. But no one even give any response over that whatsapp also. Seriously it's very horrible situation for a patient who needs her reports urgently.. Very bad unprofessional system.
