I went for a health checkup at 4.00 p.m. I was told to consult a general physician and got appointment. Waited for one and half hour and then gave up. Though the staff are very polite the doctors seem to have their own time. I was given appointment for one Dr.Arumugham M.D. His time was mentioned as 4.00 p.m. to 6.00 p.m. But even after 5.30 he has not come. When asked nurses pointed out that he usually comes by 5.30 only and in Saturday he comes much late. This hospital needs lacks governance. Doctors think themselves as gods. He may have several personal work. But my point is the hospital should have atleast changed the board as 6.00 p.m. to 8.00 p.m.. Will never go to this hospital again.

When my 10 year old son was suffering from dehydration (both loose motion and vommitting), I want him to get admitted in the hospital as inpatient for treatment, as I am having a indivual health insurancy cashless policy from ICICI Lombard, in my son's name valid up August 2013. Though the hospital started giving treatment to my son, with motherly care as a virtue of any christian mission, it refused to admit my son as in-patient stating that the hospitial was not entertaining the individual policy holders instead entertains only corporate policy holders and demanded Rs.5,000/- as admission fees. As I was not equipped to meet such contingencies but for taking such health insurance policies (which is cashless in nature), due to the outflow ... View More

I went to ishabel hospital early morning complaining of vomiting and dehydration They got me admitted saying it was serious. But I was ok in 1 days stay but forced me to stay for 2 more days saying they wanted to observe me. But everything was fine. You how much my bill was. It came to 23,000 rupees. very very expensive. I complained but no answers. They say it is the hospital rules. SO BE VERY CAREFUL OF THIS HOSPITAL "ST.ISABEL;S HOSPITAL MYLAPORE". IT IS VERY DANGEROUS AND WILL BANKRUPT YOU. APPOLLO IS FAR BETTER IN THIS CASE. THE DOCTORS ARE NOT GOOD IN ISABEL HOSPITAL AND THE NURSE WILL NOT LISTEN TOYOU. THEY KEEP TAKING ALL THE TEST EVEN IF YOU ARE OK.
BE CAREFUL AND AVOID ST.ISABEL HOSPITAL, MYLAPORE AT ANY COST.

Most hospitals are like this. A hospital called Madurai Eye foundation in Coimbatore is not even having proper life saving equipments in their operating theatre. On the outside, this hospital looks good, but inside, its only basic equipments to make most money. If a patient dies, it is due to patients misfortune and not due to the incompetence of the doctor. This situation should change soon in our country and every hospital and doctor should be made accountable for patients health. Indian Medical Association and government should work together to bring honesty and sincerity to the medical faculty. I hope such forum should highlight the poor doctors and hospitals for good.

I delivered my child at St. Isabel's as I was misled into believing that it was an old established hospital with service in mind (just as many missionary schools and hospitals are in this country.) However, after my personal experience I will not recommend the hospital to anyone. It is expensive and yet the care I got was substandard. Some of their Doctors are good but many are not and since the administration is inefficient, you could land in serious trouble. Both me and my son were in perfect health after the delivery, but my son was kept in the Neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) for a couple of hours soon after birth. (Pls understand that there is a hefty fee that goes to the pediatrician and hospital if the child is kept in the NICU). ... View More When asked for the reason as to why my son was in the NICU, my family was given no satisfactory reply, except that they want to "monitor" the baby, though they also added he was absolutely healthy (my son had an APGAR score of 9/10). At that time, we had full faith in the hospital and pediatrician, so we didn't insist on a more reasonable explanation. Instead of being breastfed in the first half hour after birth as is recommended by everyone, both mother and child were separated for nearly 3 hours. After that, the Doctor advised that we should formula feed my son as the little milk that I was expressing was too little (though I now understand that it is normal for a new mother to express only little milk in the beginning). Well, we agreed to formula feed, but this multi bedded hospital with the "latest equipment" could not provide us even a spoon or bowl for formula feeding. We had to borrow all this from another ill fated patient. Sterilization of the borrowed vessels were also not possible, neither was it recommended. Somehow, with great determination we managed sterilizing the vessels. We then fed my son unnecessary formula milk. After 3 days of further mismanagement by the staff, I was discharged with my son who was now running a temperature. (All the little deeds of mismanagement cannot be mentioned in this review as it will get too long, but they ensured that both mother and son were ill and completely exhausted after the 3 day hospital stay.) We were fortunate to get discharged despite my son's fever as me and my son escaped further ill treatment. However, very soon I was forced to come back with a precariously ill boy to the same hospital as I didnt know where else to go. Luckily this time, my 4 day old son was under the care of a very caring and competent lady doctor and she brought him back to normal. I am extremely grateful to her. However, barring a few good doctors, this hospital is dominated by incompetence. Now I know that my case was not a solitary case; many have faced precisely my kind of treatment. Delivering children in hospitals are supposed to be for ensuring their good health, but I feel, this hospital ensured that my healthy child fall ill. Unless you personally know the doctors who will treat you there, I would never recommend this hospital to anyone. View Less

Hi
I would not recommend this hospital for two reasons,
1. The care they provide for the patent is not appreciable, even a small nursing home provide a better service then this old hospital (established in 1949).
2. Its more expensive than any other hospital in Chennai, you will not be able to compare the charges against any hospital. I could not really understand the reason for the expensiveness of this hospital.

Hi I recently had the misfortune of my mom being admitted in this place.Though I don't blame them for her death, I hold them responsible for making last few days miserable and more painful. Here are a few of the reasons- * The nurses were rude, unresponsive, and careless. * Unsafe practices- needles with blood was trashed outside the garbage bins, They left the measuring cans for urine uncleaned and undisposed. * they had inexperienced nurses experiment on my mom for IV insertion. It was so bad that we ended up recruiting a private nurse to care for my mom. *Enormous charges for stuff like phone calls,gloves, cotton ect. I hardly saw them use gloves. The tragedy was they charge us $10/- for a call they made to the doctor when my mo ... View More
