Went in around 8am last week, nobody in the waiting room. Front desk was kind and helpful, nurses were great, doc was great! In and out in less than an hour. If your issue is not terribly painful or life threatening, consider going early in the morning if you don't want to wait in line.

I live distant to my mother who was very ill this week. I am a nurse and doctoral student. I sent her to the Perth Emergency Department as it was the weekend. In Covid times it's virtually impossible to book with her GP. The doctor who saw her failed to do any standard tests, nothing at all, and did not even touch or physically assess her swollen, red, painful and warm ankle. If a patient who fears going to the doctor shows up on your doorstep at 1 am in Covid times she is suffering. A little compassion goes a long way especially in these stressful times when it's very difficult for elderly patients to see their doctors for preventive care. I'll send her to Smiths Falls from now on. I'm disgusted with the treatment my mother \did not receive.\ Follow up: The team at Smiths Falls and my mother's GP helped Monday morning. Over the weekend she worsened and is extremely ill. She has to have treatment with IV antibiotics at the hospital for numerous days. I hope the CEO and his team review the failure of their ER doctor to provide basic standard of care to senior patients. Mistakes like this cost lives and unnecessary suffering for seniors and families. Ontario really needs to bump up its assessment, intervention and the treatment provided for the senior population. Did I mention my mother heard on her local radio station that if you can't see your doctor and are having symptoms go to Emerg versus waiting for a serious crisis? Time for a non biased review of the Perth Emergency Department.
Honestly walked in the waiting room was empty i stayed as i figured it wouldn't be to long of a wait. Its been almost 1h and haven't even been to the back yet! Unbelievable to me as there is no other patients in site. Would never recommend this hospital! Poor time management!
Great experience both pre & post op at the Perth Hospital. All staff very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. I felt that I was looked at as a person and given great care to speed my recovery. Couldn't ask for a better place to be. Sincere thanks to every staff member.
