Bluewater Health: Emergency Department

I cannot speak highly enough about all the amazing nurses and staff at Bluewater Sarnia. Unfortunately my mom has had to be in there several times lately and every has been so very kind and helpful. I greatly appreciate every one of them.

Awful experience. Long wait times, lack of ownership over patient care, less than adequate consults.

I cannot express enough gratitude for Dr. Nick Latham and the entire Emergency Room team at Bluewater Health Sarnia.
