Tampa General Hospital Brooksville - Brooksville, Florida

I’ve been going to this hospital almost 7 years now and never met a staff like I did tonight that was so rude and exploited patient information infront of others the way they have. In addition the doctor on site Diane rickert was very loud and rude and did not help me with my issue instead she ordered labs after I had to ask for them numerous of times and then before my stuff came back she sent me home with meds. Not only did I not get what needed done but I liked the hospital better before it became Tampa general. Now I have to waist time to go get help because they claim they don’t do MRI or proper X-rays

Came for a foot surgery 3/14/2025 with Dr Adamov. The team was great and very caring. My nurses were excellent. I would do the surgery again with this hospital experience although recovery has been hard!
I did make a list of people as I was laying there panicking about my surgery,
Special shout out to Susan, Tracey, and Kelly, Julie and the best part the guy with the knock out meds Zamora! Didn’t catch his first name but super thankful for him! Everyone was so nice and caring brought me extra blankets, and made sure I was comfortable even gave me a sandwich when I woke up. Thank you all so much for the excellent care! Also my baby had an amazing time with grandma in the courtyard!

My husband fell and the ambulance took him to Tampa general Brooksville. Upon release they gave us a referral to Dr. Jadhav. I called them 1st the next morning to start the process for an appointment. I clearly told the scheduler that we had tricare prime . She never said they didn’t take it. She said they needed the referral.

I called our doctors to get a referral. It was sent the next morning. I called at 8:30 to let her know that the referral is in fax machine. I informed her again that we had tricare prime. What was strange she said she would text an appointment. Uhhh!!!

My husband told me later that afternoon he had hadn’t heard anything. I called to the office for the 3rd time. I was than informed they had 100’s of faxes to go through. I asked about our insurance. I was informed that they had to check to see if they our insurance. Wouldn’t you think they would know that ? 3 phone calls 2 days and still didn’t know if they took tricare prime.

I have no idea why Tampa General
Brooksville is referring people there.

I am currently at Tampa General Brooksville. I have been here since Friday. I have experienced doctors reading me the results of a different patient. They were at the wrong bed the med cart trying to give him medication wrong bed again the lady next to me they’re doing the same to her that we’re trying to give her my meds or read my test results wrong bed. Yesterday the doctor forgot me in my room when he was making his rounds and they had to call him from another floor. Today the doctor came in while I was getting a EKG and he said he would be back Around and never came back to see.me. A man died the other night on a cold blue they were running from everywhere. Their family was devastated out in the hall and I heard a nurse running down the hall saying I read the wrong chart. I read the wrong chart over and over. This is very disturbing to me. This hospital needs to get their stuff together. I have also had some wonderful nurses . And some not so good,

Brought my son to the emergency room last night and sat in the waiting room for 3 hrs to receive treatment. When asked why we weren't allowed a room in the ER but 2 other patients that walked in were brought back and placed in a room I was advised they had an ACTUAL emergency and that they can't tell me their emergency. I didn't ask their emergency, I asked why my sick child and I weren't privileged enough to be put in a room. I'm also pretty educated in HIPAA, so I found the nurses words to be insulting. I am also immune compromised and don't need to be exposed to other people. Every time I have been to this hospital there has been some type of issue and lack of concern or empathy. I dreaded going here but after a long day and late night decided to stay close to home. Never again!! I will travel to citrus or pinellas next time.

It has taken me a long time to find the words of gratitude to describe my visit on August 30, 2024. I was visiting Florida, a long way from home, when I fell ill with pain and found my way to Tampa General Hospital. I was experiencing pain I’d never experienced before. I was in fear and unable to focus except for the thought of hoping someone could help me. The moment I entered the parking lot, I was curled up in pain, and without hesitation a young woman ran out of the hospital with a wheelchair to escort me into the building. I was attended to and surrounded by wonderful professionals from the very beginning of my visit. I received extensive education in regards to the medications I was due to receive. Every question was answered and every fear was put to ease. My physical needs due to my inability to perform on my own were met gracefully by my nurse, Fritzner. He went above and beyond. During my time of feeling fear I also felt love and support. He prepared me for my x-ray and CT scan. That’s where I encountered care from Lynda Kotlarek. I was so afraid and she covered me with warmth through blankets and care which in return helped me calm down. She spoke to me with calmness and grace. I was concerned about my imaging results, causing my anxiety to overrule my body’s reaction which caused me to shake. She was so patient with me and was able to explain findings to me in detail to help me be put at ease. The kindness in her eyes is something I will never forget. I want to thank the hospital staff I crossed paths with that day but most of all I want to thank Fritzner and Lynda for not only doing their jobs but being so compassionate with their livelihood. I am so grateful and hold so much love in my heart for them.

With gratitude,
Ina D

This hospital is a joke! Every person we dealt with told us different things and when we question why things are being handled the way they are they talk in circles. My husband was assigned Dr Amarchand at the hospital and he refuses to show up until the evening and instead of my husband being home this morning, he’s still there because this Dr shows up “whenever he feels like it” and no one can contact him because “he refuses to learn how to use the hospital system”. It’s completely disrespectful of patient’s time and complete ignorance. We were told “we think he’s just here to collect a paycheck”. I am so disgusted! Every single nurse has a complaint about this guy and yet nothing has changed?! No one will call me back from the patient care line. No one will help my husband switch to a different Dr so he can be discharged. It’s a damn joke. They’re basically holding him against his will because without a discharge he can’t leave or insurance won’t pay the bill. Horrible!!! I’d give 0 stars if I could.

I've had good experiences in the past.. but this time was absolutely horrible. Staff wasn't nice, or attentive.. you try to ask them something and they sit there talking at the nurses station about non work related stuff. All the while ignoring you. When you finally get a response they act like your a problem. The bathroom had poop on the wall.. it was dirty, a very very small amount of the staff was nice the rest of staffs attitudes was just as nasty as the bathroom.. not happy.
