The receptionists at Carew House D04TC63 are always very rude and inconsiderate, they should do some basic customer service courses and diversity courses. They don't treat people nicely. The doctors are incredible tho, helpful, kind, hardworking and caring and they understand the community they serve. Incredible work.
This morning my daughter needed to be seen for a skin condition that required immediate attention. We arrived at a and e at 12 noon and were triaged within the hour. A doctor and nurse both with good experience in dermotology examined her and applied the necessary ointment to deal with the problem and having then been examined by a consultant a course of action was decided and a regular review plan was put in place. All in all this took 4 hours which was excellent. Staff were pleasant understanding and efficient at all times and my daughter went home in the knowledge that she has a reliable back up team to support her to full recovery. Thank you to all the staff including receptionist, porter and all the medical staff. Well Done EC
Very disappointing.
I contacted three public hospitals in Dublin through which a specific service is presented as being available free of charge (the GUIDE Clinic at St James’s Hospital, Mater Misericordiae University Hospital, and St Vincent’s University Hospital) and all three told me the same thing: there was no availability, they were no longer taking on new patients for this service, and I was directed to private clinics instead.
It is deeply frustrating to see a public service described as free and accessible, while the real experience is that patients are left without a genuine public route and are instead pushed towards private care. That is not what one should expect from a public healthcare system in a European country.
In practice, this feels far closer to a pay-to-access model than to a genuinely functioning public service. If a hospital publicly states that a service is available through the public system, then that service should be accessible through the public system and not only in theory, and not only until patients are redirected to pay privately.
For a European capital, this approach makes no sense.
St. Vincent’s University Hospital was founded in 1834 by Mother Mary Aikenhead, who established it at the Earl of Meath’s former residence at 56 St Stephen’s Green, Dublin. She was the founder of the Catholic order, the Religious Sisters of Charity. The hospital welcomed all patients who could afford care, regardless of their religious beliefs. Notably, Florence Nightingale was twice rejected for a trainee nurse position here. The hospital became legally registered as a company on March 28, 1927. In 1970, it relocated to its present location in Elm Park. In 1999, the hospital was renamed St. Vincent’s University Hospital to emphasize its role as a principal teaching institution affiliated with University College Dublin. The hospital is part of the St. Vincent’s Healthcare Group, along with St. Michael’s Hospital and St. Vincent’s Private Hospital.
The hospital marked a historic milestone by performing the first kidney transplant in Ireland on December 19, 1963.
In May 2013, plans were announced for the new National Maternity Hospital in Dublin to be located on the St. Vincent’s site, with management initially to be handled by the Sisters of Charity. However, due to public concerns, in May 2017, the Sisters withdrew from ownership and management roles of the healthcare group, and the two Sisters on the board resigned. This change marked a significant shift in religious involvement in Irish healthcare.
On May 8, 2020, it was announced that the Religious Sisters of Charity would transfer ownership of St. Vincent’s Healthcare Group to the State, following approval from the Holy See for the transfer of property valued at approximately €200 million. The healthcare group’s ownership is expected to move to an independent charitable entity known as St. Vincent’s Holdings CLG.
In January 2023, the hospital began cataloging religious iconography around its facilities to facilitate returning these items to the religious order after the ownership transfer.
This summary captures the key historical developments and recent transitions at St. Vincent’s University Hospital in Dublin.
St. Vincent’s University Hospital in Dublin functions as a regional center for emergency medicine and comprehensive medical care at both inpatient and outpatient levels. It receives referrals from regional and tertiary hospitals for specialist treatments. The hospital is recognized nationally as the referral center for liver transplantation and adult cystic fibrosis care. Closely affiliated with University College Dublin, it serves as a key training institution for medical professionals including doctors, nurses, radiographers, and physiotherapists, supporting undergraduate education in healthcare disciplines.
The hospital offers a wide array of clinical departments such as emergency medicine, cardiology, gastroenterology, hepatology, respiratory medicine, nephrology, and many surgical specialties. It also houses national programs like the National Liver Transplant Programme and the National Pancreas Transplant Programme. The Emergency Department is the major regional referral center for strokes and major trauma cases. This integrated approach combines front-line acute, chronic, and emergency care across over 50 medical specialties, highlighting its role as a major academic teaching hospital and national specialist center.
Doctor Oisin told me “to leave a one star review to discourage people from coming here” so here I am! Was sent by GP to emergency room as I was short of breath, was waiting for a few hours that was fine, was called into a room by myself where a nurse told me I had an infection with no other information, I was left in the room by myself for about 20 minutes until they told me that they called the wrong person. After the doctor examined me and determined nothing was wrong with me, I asked could I be prescribed an inhaler, the nurse laughed in my face which was great. Left the hospital still breathless and even more confused, as earlier that day my GP was worried I could die. So what I take from this experience is that if you’re a young woman and aren’t screaming hysterically in pain, you must be faking it despite being referred by your GP and repeatedly having to tell doctors what’s wrong.
I’ve accompanied my mom to St. Vincent’s Hospital many times, and now I’ve found myself here as a patient as well. I’m truly grateful and impressed by the professionalism, kindness, and care of the medical staff. Thank you for the work you do — it makes a difference.
Worst hospital EVER! Just needed to get my brother’s eye checked at the hospital. It took a whopping 8(!) hours. We weren’t even allowed to be together! I waited 8 hours seperately and he waited 8 hours seperately for a CAT scan that the doctor said would take 30 min - 5 hours to get the results from. Insanity. Steer clear of this hospital, it’s an absolute mess
The Glaswegian expression "all fur coat and no knickers" most aptly describes this third world institution masquerading as a first world hospital. My 90 year old mother spent days (yes days!) on a trolley in a draughty corridor in the A&E department of this hellish place waiting to be admitted. Surly and dismissive staff rushed about in a chaotic haze of confusion and despair. The one star given is in recognition of the the cleanliness of the toilets in the A&E department and absolutely nothing else. Abandon hope all ye who enter here (unless you're only popping in to use the loo!)
