Reply to comment by Brudesandwich in what's your preferred hospital to go to? by MsDemiBurch

I was considering going to that one but it is a little far but the closer hospitals I've been to has been kind of crazy unfortunately.

I'm looking for individuals personal suggestions for hospitals around so thanks for the comment, I might just go to that hospital if I dont get another answers otherwise.

It's about 20 minutes by car with no traffic on the turnpike (no tolls if you get on from Route 3 exit). I believe you can take the train from Hoboken to Hackensack but I've never taken it so i can't speak on how reliable it is.

Thank you for the details! 20 minutes isnt too bad, I'm going to give then a try.

As someone who relies on public transportation it is a pain to get to Hackensack or Englewood or Morristown hospital. But by car it's not bad at all. But I would choose those hospitals over any in Jersey City. If I had to choose a nearby hospital I'd go with Newark Beth Israel.

Also, do some research, some hospitals excel at treating certain diseases or have better treatments....keep that in mind.

I've actually have been trying to do some research but when I look at reviews on the hospitals like for recent ones all the hospitals usually have a mix of bad & good reviews lol I know the hospital isnt going to be a fun experience or the same regardless so Its kind of hard to do research on it as far as I know.

Which is why I ask cause I also looked at other people's reddit posts asking while those are usually 1 to 3 years old posts and I was told that hospitals can sometimes get worse or better over the years and I can imagine covid might of really effected that.
