All the staff on 3 North who cared for my daughter Eliana for 2 months were amazing, patient, caring, and went ABOVE and BEYOND in every single way imaginable. We live 2 hours away in West Palm Beach and didnt get to see my daughter everyday. But I knew she was being well taken care. Some of these amazing people who helped with the care of my daughter were: Sarah from Child Life, the therapists Olivia PT and Doris OT, social worker Belkis P, APRN Clara, Gaby from music, the psychiatrists, Nurse Steph, Kim, Mercy, Patty, Yoelle, Clanta, Chona, Valeria, Aya, Jackie, Lennie, Liselle, and Anja. That is just a few but I know there is more. My daughter would not be where she is today without the exceptional, caring, and hardworking staff of 3 North.All the staff on 3 North who cared for my daughter Eliana for 2 months were amazing, patient, caring, and went ABOVE and BEYOND in every single way imaginable.

I had a very disappointing experience at Nicklaus Children’s Hospital during my child’s audiology appointment on October 28.
When I arrived, there was a long delay just to be acknowledged and checked in. Once I was finally helped, I was told the referral from my child’s pediatrician couldn’t be accepted. I understood that, but the front desk assured me I could call the pediatrician to have an amended referral sent and that my child would still be seen once it arrived — even confirming this with the audiologist.
Because of that assurance, I immediately called the pediatrician and had the updated referral sent. However, the check-in process took so long that by the time everything was resolved, the appointment window had nearly closed. When the front desk called the audiologist again, they didn’t mention that we might no longer be seen.
After walking with my crying toddler across the hospital to the audiology center, I was met by staff in an unfriendly manner and told that because we were “late,” I’d now have to wait an hour just to find out if we could be seen — with only a 50% chance. Had I known that earlier, I wouldn’t have wasted more time or effort trying to fix the referral issue.
The entire process was disorganized and unprofessional. There was poor communication between departments, and the staff made the situation feel as though it was no big deal for me to simply come back another day — despite the fact that I’m a single mother who took half a day off work to attend this appointment.
I left feeling frustrated and disappointed. This experience makes me hesitant to return to this location for my child’s care, which is disheartening given the hospital’s reputation. I truly hope management reviews this issue and addresses the lack of organization and compassion displayed by staff.
