Netcare Mulbarton Hospital – Maternity Ward

Absolutely the worst hospital! My 13 month old daughter was so sick, we waited for 3 hours to be attended to. No sense of urgency for a little baby who is crying uncontrollably! Absolutely appalling!

I would like to compliment the Maternity ward staff on the 8/5/2023.sister Nonchanla Williams and sister Ruth Mkwanazi you ladies are the best ,sister Williams with her smiley face and kind spirit made my day.

Had an emergency c-section, the sister prepping me insisted on using my linen savers unnecessarily, the gynae (Dr Mpehle) had to stop her as he said they had in theatre. I was not checked up on to have a shower in the days after. The first night they saw to baby for his nappy change, feeding and sleeping in the nursery. The next day I was told that the mother must do the nappy change yet no one showed me how, luckily my mother came during visiting hours. They did not show me how to bath baby too. The sister on night duty that checked my pressure was very abrupt, she kept telling me that I will have to give formula to my baby, even when i go home, else he will starve, at one point even squeezed my breast without warning or permission, she just wanted to see. Even with breastfeeding, each sister shows you differently and you feel like you can’t ask as they answer like you’re expected to know. The team in theatre was amazing but overall a terrible experience, from start to finish. I would not recommend or return for future births.
