Chris Hani Baragwanath

One reads all these horror stories and the terrifying reviews of Baragwanath. My brother was critically ill and was sent to Baragwanath by his specialist as he said it is the best hospital in the country with the best doctors and specialists and his only chance of survival. . I was absolutely beside myself at his being sent there. I only have praise for the doctors and nurses that we dealt with. We were treated with absolute compassion and kindness. My brother could not have had better care anywhere else. Sadly he passed away and our next hurdle was the mortuary. Again I was worried about what we would be confronted with. The staff in the mortuary were kind and compassionate and did everything in their power to assist in spite of the conditions they have to operate under. And the many hurdles they have to overcome in assisting. I am sure that there are sections of Baragwanath that are scary and no one wants to go there but there are sections that meet world class standards.
