Inpatient treatment following knee surgery (new knee joint). Very friendly and always helpful staff (Ward 5012). High level of expertise (surgery went perfectly). The food was varied for such a large hospital and perfectly acceptable in terms of preparation. I am very satisfied and can highly recommend this hospital.
A huge hospital with all the weaknesses of such a large organization. But people are healed and saved here every day. Thanks to the many people who work hard here and conduct research to help us. I know many people who have been treated here and am glad that this opportunity exists.
I came with a friend, a former employee here and never again will I go to this doctors office. One of the staff Hain I think was unfriendly and seemed to not know what she was doing. My friend was dismayed that a staff member could have such difficulty reading a medical chart.
The wait in the emergency room is beyond unbelievable. After four hours, I gave up and left. I only needed to extend my sick note, and other patients were waiting much longer. Sorry, I understand that children and emergencies naturally take priority, but this is unacceptable.
I was hospitalized for a week in the internal medicine department in mid-October 2025. Since then, I've requested an invoice for the treatment half a dozen times (I'm a private patient residing in Switzerland). As of early January, I still haven't received it. What a mess...
Inhumane behavior in neurological diagnostics. Patients are yelled at and treated condescendingly. When you imagine that seriously ill people experience such interpersonal horrors there, you don't want to get sick yourself. I hope you are ashamed of your behavior.
Anyone making an appointment here should plan for plenty of time. Our appointment was at 11:45 am (eye clinic), and we were finished after 3.5 hours. Thanks, but no thanks! The only positive thing is that wheelchairs are available everywhere. But that's about it.
This is our second time on a children's ward. The doctors are nice. The food is okay. However, it really needs some renovations. The rooms are simply too small when you're accompanied by a child. When I saw the bathroom, I didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
The staff and doctors on ward 2014, Pediatric Cardiology, were incredibly unfriendly. They were only friendly for one hour the entire week, and that was only when the patient came in through a doctor! I've never experienced such a terrible hospital! ? …
A great hospital with a highly competent team! The UMG is a true center of excellence with professional and dedicated care. I would especially like to highlight the pediatric wards – the caring and empathetic staff take truly excellent care …

I had positive experiences many years ago. I had another outpatient appointment (B2) today. There was hardly any waiting time, and the doctors provided excellent advice – fantastic, thank you! The reception desk for scheduling appointments …
I made an appointment on Friday at 11:15 . I come to the appointment and they say they don't have it. They send me to the emergency room instead, where i wait for 3 hours. You sit there, without any clarity, afraid to going to the toilet so …
IF you are treated, then everything is fine. However, you are regularly forgotten in the emergency room. This was the second time that my daughter and I have sat there for over 3 hours for an x-ray. The people waiting around us have already …
I am a pregnant woman, currently 38 weeks and 4 days along. I had never been to this clinic before for any prenatal care, as I had always seen my gynecologist. However, a few days prior, I had been to the clinic to schedule a delivery date. …
My husband needed to have a cardiac catheterization in Göttingen at short notice. Getting a quick appointment wasn't a problem. We were able to travel the very next day. He was admitted to ward 2022, and they were aware of his arrival. The …
You sit around here for five hours, get sent from station to station, and not much is actually done. On top of that, the nurses are incredibly unfriendly. In those five hours, they only took a urine sample and did a blood test; the rest was …
Best place to receive medical treatment nor matter your colour, race, religion, social status, etcetera. My Doctor referred me to see the surgeon who will deal with the specific problem at hand. If you have an insurance cover, then you have …
Unfortunately, we got the impression that the staff in the emergency room seemed rude and annoyed. We had called in advance to inquire about our emergency, and they confirmed that we should come in. However, once we arrived, we were treated …
My daughter and I have been receiving treatment there for three years now, in many different areas, and we are always extremely satisfied. Appointments and waiting times are perfectly reasonable, the inpatient stay is incredibly caring, and …
Not recommended. I've been waiting for my medical report for over four weeks now. Even after several phone calls, I still haven't received it. No one knows how my treatment will proceed or what my exact diagnosis is. My clothes went missing …
On January 29, 2025, my life was saved in this hospital. After being transferred by helicopter from Bremen to Göttingen and successfully undergoing a thrombectomy, I would like to express my gratitude to the entire medical team, especially …
If I could, I'd give it 0 stars. I went in because of acute chronic tonsillitis and, of course, had to go to the ENT emergency room for a two-minute check-up and then get a letter telling me when the surgery would be. I waited almost three …
I have never felt so threatened and frightened in my life as I did by the man working at the information point at the gate. I asked for help finding a taxi, as I was using crutches and couldn't use my phone properly. The man quickly became …
My father-in-law got admitted here for stroke and they have the best expertise here to treat stroke patients. The food served to the patients is good and tasty, the rooms are very clean and well equipped. Special shout-out to the nurses in …
So when I read the many bad reviews here, I can understand, but in our case, I can't relate. Without them, my husband might not be alive. Oncology is excellent, no waiting time, everything on time. Patients and families are well cared for, …
I was in the hospital from September 3rd to November 13th, 2023. I had surgery for a bladder tumor, and on the urology ward, I suffered a cardiac arrest. Nurses and doctors who came to my aid saved my life. In the ICU, I was diagnosed with …
After a brain hemorrhage, my brother was discharged from here with a faulty shunt. They said everything would be alright, it just would take some time. We saw each other shortly afterward. He was walking normally and you could almost talk …
An absolute disaster; I wouldn't recommend anyone get treatment there. During my entire stay, I only spoke to a doctor for three minutes, and even then, they didn't know much about anything. The nurses and interns just kept putting me off …
The emergency clinic is beyond words! We were supposed to wait 1.5 hours for the results. The total wait time was 5 hours! Yes, we know that you always have to allow for a long wait at practices like this, but if a time is given, I expect …
While the hospital may be technically well-equipped, its organization isn't even worth one star. Surgery appointments are rescheduled at short notice, you wait forever for new appointments, and only after repeated inquiries do you finally …
One of the worst hospital experiences. My wife was admitted with lower abdominal pain, and we were sent to the gynecology department. They took blood from her vein, but they later lost it, so we had to give it again. We were brought in by …
After my visit to the neurological "special outpatient clinic" for Botox treatments, I am unfortunately forced to write this review. Initially, the senior physician wanted to see me in the EMG clinic to examine me for piriformis syndrome. …
I regret to inform you that I had a very negative experience with a particular doctor at this clinic. While my experiences with the clinic itself and the other doctors have been positive so far, Dr. Bodanowitz was extremely unprofessional …
For the past year, the UMG (University Medical Center Göttingen) has somehow become a part of my life. Yes, the waiting times can sometimes be annoying, but it's no different at my family doctor's office. I've also often had appointments …
For over a year, I've been receiving friendly, competent, and energetic care from nurses, caregivers, and doctors in the gastroenterology department.
Endoscopy, ultrasound, CT scans, and outpatient care are no exception. Thank you very much!
I've been a patient at the epilepsy clinic for many years and have never had a bad experience. The staff is always courteous and takes their time with each patient. Sure, it takes a little while to get blood drawn (because the nurses are …
First of all, I would like to thank the doctors and staff on the postnatal ward, wards 132 and 133. They are helpful, friendly, and understanding. Girls, thank you so much, and please stay the way you are! ????????! I've had nothing but …
I was in the emergency room 24/7 with my 88-year-old mother with severely elevated liver values, elevated inflammation levels, and severe upper abdominal pain and nausea. Unfriendly staff in a glass cabinet, every question was too much. …
The treatment was excellent. The doctors could have been more involved, but other than that, there's nothing else to complain about. The only negative aspect is that employees who smoke sit in the non-smoking area and smoke all over the …
I really don't want to share my negative experiences with this hospital, but today I heard from a friend who had a similar experience after I first used their services eight years ago. I decided to share this. I was an Asian student who …
Parking for patients is a complete disaster. You have to wait at least half an hour to get into the parking lot, and then another 15 minutes. This can't be true. Why isn't there a parking garage built there? Thousands of patients and no …
My gynecologist had discovered a cyst in my abdomen the size of a tennis ball that needed to be removed quickly. I was referred to the hospital. I was given an ultrasound appointment in the gynecology department very quickly. The nurses …
The three stars are solely for the attending physician, for the intensive care unit 0116, and for ward 2022. The doctor took excellent care of my mother, and the operation went well. The intensive care unit and ward 2022 were great; my …
We called today because my girlfriend has an increased cardiovascular risk and wanted to get checked out. The lady on the phone was extremely rude when we asked if there was room or, if she needed to be admitted, if there were any beds …
This place is unbelievable! I took my brother-in-law to the UMG Eye Clinic because he needed eye drops. He had an appointment at 11:40 AM, but he didn't get seen or finished until 4:30 PM. The staff were running around like crazy, and …
I was at the eye clinic on September 13, 2024, for an examination and pre-operative consultation. I felt in good hands. From the information desk to the quick admission, as well as the medical staff, including the doctor and surgeon. …
The Islamic prayer room at the Göttingen University Hospital is a very clean and well-maintained space. You immediately sense a peaceful, pleasant atmosphere that invites quiet reflection. The carpets are clean, it smells fresh, and …

I had an appointment on September 18, 2025. A very friendly nurse came and explained that the appointment was slightly delayed. About 20 minutes later, I was called and had a pre-surgery consultation with a very patient-oriented and …
My impression as a former patient is that the entire team of doctors, nurses, and nursing staff are all very competent, and you are in very good medical care. Also remarkable is the friendliness of the entire staff, which is evident …
I've been in three different hospitals over the past 1.5 years, and I have to say this was the best of all! I felt welcomed by both the doctors and nurses, and not like an inconvenience like in some others. I can only speak for the …
A very competent clinic. All specialist departments, plus social services, psychologists, and volunteers, work together very well. I've been a patient at the 2014 (pediatric cardiology, intensive care unit, and pediatric cardiology …
I was in the university hospital from December 22nd to 30th, 2025. I would like to sincerely thank the staff again. ? You took excellent care of me. On December 22nd, I was transferred from the eye clinic to the emergency room. The …
We were in the pediatric ward with our son because, at seven months old, he suddenly developed a croup-like cough, vomiting, and shortness of breath.
Of course, there were long waits – BUT the staff were consistently friendly, …
After waiting six months for an appointment, it wasn't worth it.
As always... treating the symptoms instead of the cause. The doctors I saw (in the dermatology department) showed little commitment or dedication. Very disappointing.
The bus stop for the large, modern Göttingen University Hospital, with its prominent doctors and high profile, specialized medicine and pioneering research, is located directly opposite and can be reached by bus towards Papenberg.
Today I waited three hours for an appointment, only to be told after five minutes, "Yes, you need surgery on your earlobe." If I worked like that, I'd be out of a job long ago. They're lucky their clinic is considered critical …
Anyone who gives birth here is in safe hands with the midwives.
Even though there are certainly better facilities available, we don't regret the decision we ultimately had to make (forced by our unborn child's kidney, which …
I had my gallbladder removed last week. From the initial consultations and preliminary examinations to the anesthesia, doctors, nurses, and the entire team, they were simply fantastic. I felt truly in good hands. Thank you.
Best hospital I've ever been to. The entire staff, from the nurses to the attending physician, was very professional and well-trained. Above all, their warmth, friendliness, and humanity were of great importance to me. …
I asked where a station was, and they treated me with complete disrespect and unbelievable language. They were also really racist toward my mother, who wears a headscarf. I'll never go there again. It's absolutely insane.
I broke two bones in my hand (the 4th and 5th metacarpal bones). I was previously at the hospital in Heilbad Heiligenstadt, the local hospital, where the fracture was diagnosed (it was visible through my hand). …
I've never experienced anything so unprofessional!
The "head" of registration and appointment scheduling in the neuromuscular department tops everything I've ever experienced in terms of rudeness and …
I was there for six days for surgery, and everything, absolutely everything, was fantastic. I'm a total scaredy-cat, but in retrospect, I felt more than safe there. I can highly recommend this hospital.
This was not a pleasant visit, I had bad luck with a staff member I think her name was Jain or Hain but she was not very kind, after hours only to find waiting staff were disrespectful and rude.
On the advice of my doctor, I booked a few days there all inclusive ??. I have to say I'm thrilled.? All the employees I met were friendly and nice. Offer in the clinic for employment TOP.? …
The entire admission procedure is pre-war. You have to be prepared to wait at least eight hours to be admitted. You don't get the feeling that anyone from admissions is overworking you. …
Simply disappointing. I went to the clinic out of fear, hoping to find out what was wrong with me.
The initial consultation (in November 2023) was great, and a lot was explained …
I had two lung and rib surgeries in a short period of time. The doctors and nurses were very good and kind. I had to drive 100 kilometers. I would gladly do it again. Thank you all.
Excellent medical care. However, the dermatology clinic is a bit of a problem. They're reluctant to collaborate with other departments. I experienced this firsthand during my stay.
Rudest person ever
in the info center, I came for help, but he refused me and shouted at me that he doesn't know English and that I should learn to speak German when I'm in a …
Long waiting times, unfriendly and sometimes untrained staff. Making an appointment is completely pointless since you still have to wait at least two hours before it's your turn.
I have never experienced such rudeness in my life.
The staff at the emergency room reception are incredibly unfriendly. If you don't love your job, you should find another one.
Good parking, wheelchair accessible. At the east entrance, the nearest accessible toilet is immediately to the right, in the corridor towards the atrium. Then look on the left.
Documents necessary for a patient were simply lost, and three weeks later I was told they needed my signature again. Until then, the patient was simply left behind. …

From the surgery to the doctor's consultation, everything was competent and very good. …
To get a second opinion on a urological diagnosis, I tried to book an appointment through the website. The website allowed me to upload documents, which I did. …

I would like to sincerely thank the entire gynecology team on ward 7022.
Both the medical and nursing care were very professional, humane, and caring. …
I want to give Zero star. There is not a single thing good in this hospital.

I'm a regular at the cardiology department and always feel very well looked after. Very competent doctors and nurses who take time for their patients!
I had to take my son to the children's hospital over the weekend.
Many thanks to everyone who was on duty on the afternoon and evening of March …
Despite the sometimes overwhelming size of the facilities,
doctors, medical staff, and other specialists were always friendly and helpful. …
The chairs are uncomfortable which is not the best considering the long waiting time. I had to wait 3 hours and still was not taken for the CT.

It's an absolute outrage when I see the bill for almost €8,000 to the AOK …
Despite having an appointment, I waited for three hours.
