"I went to the ER last night due to severe stomach pain. The staff escorted me immediately to a bed. Within a few minutes I had a drip in and blood was sent off. The staff was very friendly, efficient and professional. This is the third time I had to go to their emergency room in 2 years, and everything I went I was not disappointed, but pleasantly surprised. I would like to use this opportunity to thank the nurses and Dr and radiology department that was on duty last night 12/11/2025. I personally will never go to a different ER. Thank you so much, Liezl Vorster"

"I was disappointed when j went to emergency services. I went in with severe pain and went home with the same pain. I feel they did not take care of me. They took all the tests but there was no warmth. I had to go home with pain patches. I was booked off for 2 days sick but my pain was still so much I could barely move. I just had to stay another day at home. I feel I was not treated well enough for somebody who is in so much pain."

"I had an excellent experience at this hospital. The hospitality from the moment you arrive is exceptional, and the doctors are truly amazing. Dr Schnaar s been amazing and very patient The only minor issue I noticed is that at times the nurses can get a bit excited when meeting each other, which occasionally results in higher noise level and the arguments as well between the staff on the passages Overall, this is the best hospital I have visited so far, and I would highly recommend it."

"Dr Kyle Schnaar was fantastic with his diagnoses, strict treatment and friendly face each day. The nursing staff are exceptional with their work, smiles on their faces and always on guard and the way they treat their patients. I am very blessed to be surrounded by angels like this. Thank you Medicine Ward personal."

"I have been admitted to the hospital a few times and compared to my experience at other private hospitals I find Busamed to be more superior. The nursing staff are very caring, attentive and do their jobs with a smile, always. The food is amazing and of good quality. The doctors are specialists who pays attention to their patients and willing to listen to my concerns that arise. It's a distance from where I stay but I know I'm I am going to get the best care here so I don't mind. I highly recommend Busamed."
