Hollywood Presbyterian Medical Center

Based on the reviews, Hollywood Presbyterian Medical Center is an acute-care facility that has been caring for the community since 1924. Experiences at the hospital are mixed. Some patients had an exceptional experience with surgery and stay, feeling genuinely cared for, supported, and at ease. The nurses in the ICU are knowledgeable and attentive, and the facility is noted as good for Koreans who want Korean doctors and nurses. However, other reviews describe very inattentive nurses outside the ICU, with patients waiting 30+ minutes for help with the nurse button, even for urgent needs like diarrhea or a beeping IV dripper. The facility is described as very old. On the positive side, many reviewers highlight amazing nurses and doctors, particularly in triage, labor and delivery, postpartum, and the ER. Specific doctors and nurses are remembered for being kind, patient, attentive, and for making patients feel safe and comfortable during difficult experiences like emergency C-sections. Overall, the hospital has both excellent individual caregivers and significant issues with nursing attention and facility age.
