— Healthgrades (Dr. Justin Thompson)"A Nightmare… that’s the best way to describe Bayfront Medical Center in St. Pete. Our son went in for double jaw surgery, although the surgery personnel was great, the recovery afterward was Far from acceptable."
— Unilocal"Based on the rude, unethical and unprofessional treatment received from the 2nd floor day shift staff, this hospital should be investigated and, perhaps, shut down."
