The hospital itself seems to be good, they have all the machines in place.
When I was hospitalized the communication wasn’t good (and I don’t mean the language). Treatment plan was changing couple of times per day and I wasn’t updated. I also wasn’t informed what kind of medical tests I would get. The stuff wasn’t informed too. E.g. I got a breakfast served before the test that required me to be on an empty stomach. And it happened several times.
Prices are twice or triple higher than in other hospitals.
I came via emergency and directly was hospitalized. Despite after one day it was clear that my condition doesn’t require me to be in the hospital 24 hours, I was still not allowed to leave it and supposed to just wait for 2 days for test results in the hospital. I assume it wasn’t made to keep me safe but rather to capture more money from my insurance. I left voluntarily until test results are available.
Also, when I came back for treatment I was charged €3000 deposit that I was promised to be back after the insurance confirms they would pay the bill. Even though insurance confirmed, I haven’t received the deposit until the bill is fully paid. (I am still waiting. 3 months passed)

I had been going to Quiron since the beginning of my pregnancy and I always had the best care and support from all the gynes and OBs.
Once i went into labour, all the Midwives and actually all staff on the maternity floor were extremely supportive too. The labour room and maternity ward are amazing.
I unfortunately had a complicated birth but I am extremely greatful me and my baby were in the caring and professional hands of Dra.Blanco 🙏 and the rest of the team in Quiron. My husband was allowed in the operating room with me during my emergency C Section which isn't usual for Spanish hospitals.
Overall I am so happy we decided to have our first born baby at this hospital and would recommend them to anyone and everyone. Thank you Quiron team 💙

They cancel appointments you have done months earlier, book multiple patients at the same time, which results in that even if you think you are the first one and have no waiting time, of course you are not the first one and have unknown waiting time. And to add to tje charm they charge you in advance, so even if you have/want to leave you cant without losing your money. My advice, and what i will do going forward is STEER AWAY FROM THIS PLACE

I recently completed my treatment with Dr Belinda at Sonrisa. I am not very fond of the dentist but her reassurance and total professionalism ensured my new smile was a painless as possible and I couldn’t be happier Thank you (I will never use another dentist) 😜

Thank you Sonrisa for the absolutely superior treatment and service you provided. While on vacation I had a hard fall and hit my mouth on stone stairs. I broke an existing crown and four other front teeth. I chose to contact Sonrisa because of their good reviews and also that I would be able to communicate comfortably in English. I am so glad I did. They gave me an emergency appointment almost immediately and were so kind, especially Raquel, as I was pretty shaken up. Their office is ultra modern, welcoming and immaculate. Dr. Belinda Pamos was compassionate, very professional and reassured me that she could repair all the damage. A week later, once my cut mouth had healed, I had temporary bridges and after another week I received permanent crowns on three top teeth and a permanent bridge on the bottom. Really, Sonrisa Clinic deserves more than five stars, I honestly believe I had a better experience here than I would have had at home in Canada. I am so pleased with the results, my teeth have never looked so good! Thanks again to you all.

To share my experience here about this amazing team at Sonrisa is my duty because they all deserve more than 5 stars!
Dr. Belinda is knowledgeable, precise, calm and honest about your dental needs. My treatment went very well and I got a perfect fitted crown after 8 months waiting from loosing a tooth and getting an implant in California in the process of moving from one country to another.
I also got my teeth cleaned with Bella, Dr. Belinda's hygienist, who is so gentle, comprehensive and compassionate!
And Raquel, Dr. Belinda's assistant, being so prompt in responding to emails, to phone calls and any question you may have, she is the first to greeting with warm welcoming smile!
I am very grateful to be finding this Clinic. I feel very safe with them and I appreciate enormously how they keep it extremely clean and tidy!

2 yrs ago i used this dentist who led me to believe route canal filling was solution , problem was they did the wrong tooth, infact it took 3 attempts to get it right, a cost of €1,256 which meant 3 route canal fillings , 2 of which on good teeth that was not required,
1 yr later had to have extraction of 1 of them due to being in agony pain , abcess as not all route was taken.
Today another year later the other route canal is cracked so badly i cannot save the tooth and now need extraction which leaves huge gap as this is next too where last extracted tooth was taken.
so had to opt for 2 implants at a cost of €3.544 , needless to say not using the the smile dentist,

I arrived at the place before the agreed date, so as not to waste the doctor's time and fill out the documents. After completing the formalities, I waited for the time of the appointment. Unfortunately, 20 minutes have passed since the date of the appointment and no one deigned to be interested, to inform why the visit is delayed. Next time, please respect your customer's time, it is an invaluable resource. I felt offended because it was a show of disrespect for me.

My experience at the clinic has been amazing. Dr. Gallagher and his team are really diligent, caring and professional. I received a thorough diagnosis and treatment plan that was minimalist and practical. The treatments themselves have been comfortable and successful which I am super grateful for. I feel so lucky to have found a dentist I can trust in Barcelona having recently moved from Ireland. Thank you 🙏

Honestly a great experience – the team here is fantastic! After Dr. Alistair Gallagher determined I needed a root canal procedure on a Friday, he was able to work on my molar the following Monday. Dr. Gallagher is very knowledgeable, and put my mind at ease as he talked me through every step. This was one of the gentlest root canals I have ever had. Thank you so much, you wonderful people!

Not as professional and friendly as they promote, all about earning money from you or your insurance but with very little care or treatment. All year with appointments and specialist for cancer an tumours ,scan after scan but not any diagnosis or treatment and suffering with swollen eye, colour change, nose and cheek burning pain and insane pressure on head and face but still no help , even though colour change on scan for my rights side of brain , cyst inside my face and gigantic problem at the back of my head and they say no problem and haven’t operated or treated. I hope I’m not dying but still don’t have any diagnosis or confirmation of anything.Now thinking I need to go to another country for help ? Wouldn’t recommend to nobody?? They won’t do anything about these reviews and even give the same answer to each person.

Avoid this hospital! I had to visit the hospital because of a sinus infection, but was rushed into several entirely useless procedures just to hike up the bill. The whole experience was horrible with unfriendly and rude staff. However, the worst part was that a nurse stole 340 euros from my purse in my handbag that I left in the examination room with the nurse when I was pushed into a toilet for another useless test. The hospital operations reeks of scamming people in every possible way. Despicable behaviour preying on people in a vulnerable situation.

My husband was admitted to this hospital in 2021, 2022 and 2 days ago.
In 2021 I visited him on a Sunday, and he was on the floor (with a broken leg) trying to get onto the sofa, to get out of the window as he was hallucinating. He was on the second floor! The window was then closed and locked but no-one had noticed my husband on the floor, which is a worry. I then had to push for a brain scan, which, according to Xanit showed nothing abnormal.
He has now been diagnosed with dementia at Guadalhorce hospital, so I chose to go private again to make things happen faster.
We saw a neurologist at Xanit who said he should be hospitalised.
When we arrived at the hospital it took over 20 minutes to park as the car park was full, then when we got to reception there were almost 35 people in front of us. We were over an hour late to get to our appointment and then the computers went down!!!
We had to go down to Urgencias to be admitted. They told me he had to go to a hospital in Malaga. I then had to go back to the neurologist, as Urgencias refused to call him, and he told them to admit my husband. There was an amazing lack of communication, and the girl who was in triage was basically rude. We were then subjected to a 2/3 hour wait, then taken to a surgical ward where the nurses all moaned about the fact he was being taken into this hospital.
I speak and understand Spanish so was very aware of the things being said and I am absolutely horrified at how we were treated.
He was hospitalised on Wednesday, and we were told he would get an MRI and CT scan. My husband was aggressive, and I was told I had to stay with him 24/7. This is not why I’m paying private health insurance. I was told there are insufficient nurses to deal with all the patients they have, so I had to stay.
The MRI and CT scan didn’t happen as the machine had broken down!!! My husband was very agitated, and the neurologist and I agreed he would be better at home. Therefore, we had to make an appointment for the MRI and CT scan (29th November) I waited over an hour to make this appointment, while my husband was in his hospital room. There were 6 people in front of me, and one person in reception, who decided to deal with people who jumped the queue and one friend (I think Fran was his name).
Reception staff are awful and provide terrible customer service. They wander away on their phones when they feel like it and don’t appreciate that people visiting the hospital may be dealing with life and death situations. They are abysmal and need training.
I see from these reviews this has been going on for over a year, so I’m not sure if my comments will make any difference at all.
Absolutely shocking service.
On a brighter note, when you actually get to see a specialist, they are amazing.

I see from these reviews this has been going on for over a year, so I’m not sure if my comments will make any difference at all.
Absolutely shocking service.
On a brighter note, when you actually get to see a specialist, they are amazing.
