  Only one bad thing -downstairs cafe Mountainview is very expensive on top of the bad taste of the food.

  Compared to the other children's hospitals in North America, ACH is not too far off.

  What I went through, I wouldn’t wish this upon my worst enemy. I seriously think you should step down and not be allowed to see children who come in with serious illnesses and you turn them away WITHOUT EVEN checking as much as their throat and ears (these are basics!). No child should be seen by you or else, they will be put on a serious risk of being misdiagnosed and mistreated.

  I'd give them zero stars if I could..(Emergency Department). Untrainted, unqualified staff. Zero common sense.. My baby brother was treated as a "thing". They don't communicate properly, don't treat each case as individual... Horrible experience.(I have no idea what are these doctors and nurses studying for!)

  Get tonsil surgery done last Thursday for my brother which seemed like it went great. 6 days later, he's coughing up a lot of blood. Midnight we get an ambulance to take him to the Alberta children's hospital. Staff if friendly but first they say the surgeon will be here at 7 am. 7 am comes around than they say noon. They need to get their stuff organized and find more surgeons instead of making kids and their families wait for 11 hours while doing nothing.

  Hospitality is well located, bus stops nearby, a bit expensive parking, all facilities have the accessibility option. All areas are extremely neat & clean.

  Alberta Children's Hospital is the best for what you need for your kids most - "Best possible Care". Their culture of treating your baby as a baby not just another patient is visible at any department you go to.

  I saw my child’s cough becoming hoarser, his body kept fighting the bacteria causing pneumonia for so many days it went undiagnosed. He had and still has non-stop burning fevers, his appetite has reduced to almost NO SOLID FOOD and barely any liquid here and there. He is in so much pain that he’s only drinking a sip or two at a time. He has been coughing up so much mucus that his throat has been inflamed to the point that he cannot swallow without feeling pain. He wakes up at night, burning in fever and crying and coughing up. He has vomited several times, throwing up even more mucus. You are probably the worst doctor I have taken my child to. You left my child struggle with pneumonia all these days when all he needed was an X-ray to confirm the symptoms and antibiotics to follow.

  Typical hospital. It is probably great for surgeries and the like, but emerg is no different and no better then anywhere else. Expect really long wait times.

  I wish you gave my son, Wali, some more time and really diagnosed him the way he SHOULD have been diagnosed the night we rushed to the emergency because he had a burning fever and couldn’t breathe properly. You corrected me saying, “It’s called stridor, not wheezing,” when I told you how I could hear wheezy sounds while he struggled to breathe. I wish you looked a bit beyond the checkup done by the nurses in triage. You stood in the room we were for less than five minutes and gave my two-year-old a STEROID medicine which he never needed. Three days after you saw him, we saw another doctor and she sent us in for a chest X-ray right away and turns out all that he had all these days was pneumonia and NOT croup as you had dubbed. Your negligence and your careless attitude caused us sleepless nights filled with stress and pain.
