I found it quite disturbing that I checked to see if my knee replacement surgery was covered under my Humana insurance. I was told that the insurance approved it. The hospital was covered, my primary care physician was covered, but my surgeon was out of network. Unfortunately I didnt discover this until the bills started flying in. What I find quite disturbing is that all literature provided by the hospital indicated that Dr Possai was part of the Grand Itasca family. His picture is featured on the GI web site and plastered in the lobby of the facility. It turns out that Dr Possai is actually "affiliated" with Grand Itasca, but is actually practicing out of Northern Orthopedics. There were other medical professionals that treated me as well that were also "out of network". Im sure there was a disclosure buried in the fine print that people in pain pencil whip, but Grand Itasca, if you want to do your patients a service, when you check medical coverage, let the patient know who is in and out of network. This is putting a great financial strain on me. I would have gone to someone else if I knew the facts.

Im sorry, but having come from out of state and requiring services, I was disgusted. Ive never been to such a horrible hospital. I went in to find out that my full-term baby was without a heartbeat. For some reason, the nurse performing the ultrasound found this humorous. Lacking any professional aptitude (or basic common sense) she felt the need to blurt out this information with my 12 year old daughter in the room. Now, you would think any nurse, mother, or human being for that matter would think to herself "perhaps I should ask her daughter to go into the waiting room while I deliver such devastating news" furthermore, she proceeded to shove a drug test down my throat. Again, in front of my child. The doctor wasnt too much better; he too had a smirk. For the life of me, I couldnt fathom what this facility seen to be so humorous. He then offered to perform a c-section. Needless to say, I waited 3 days to see too it I would be operated on by professionals. Lesson: wont be vacationing anywhere near Grand Rapids in case of a medical emergency. Talk about a downright appalling experience.

If you had to choose between delivering a baby here or in deer river, there are a few fabulous home birth midwives in the area... Update: after having a life altering delivery in deer river my second delivery was in grand itasca, the nurses treated me very poorly. By the time I was ready to have my third baby planning the gentle delivery I needed was like pulling teeth; dr. Beyer was excessively pushy with tests that I did not want or require medically, They truly care about insurance and money more than their patients. The nurses I had for my third delivery were amazing though. Those women deserve awards

I recently had a serious incident requiring an ER visit. I was very impressed with the care that I received from admitting, triage nursing and physicians. The ER was full and very busy but I was cared for professionally, properly, carefully, appropriately and respectfully. I could not have asked for better care. I also required a follow-up in the after hours clinic a few day later and again was again greeted with the same great care from the nursing staff and Dawn Olson.

While visiting from D.C. I torn my Hamstring. My husband and I had just arrived at my sisters when the pain ripped through me. They ended up calling for an ambulance. The medics where AWESOME! They were kind, knowledgeable, and professional. The personnel in the ER (Nurses & Doctors) were just as AWESOME. They admitted me due to other concerns and they treated me with the utmost compassion and professionalism. Kudos to the entire Granditasca Team!! Thank you

I have many complicated health issues and despite moving to Hibbing, I have chosen to keep my healthcare with my doctor at Grand Itasca. He discusses all the options available to me and lets me make the final decision on which route I would like to go for treatment. When it is a treatment that he feels is very important that I have, he tells me. He is always very straight-forward while remaining professional and kind.

My family of six have been taking care of our health care at Grand Itasca since we moved to Grand Rapids. We have had all sorts of health care situations. We have always been treated very well. The support staff and the Doctors are all very good. We feel lucky to have Grand Itasca at our disposal. Grand Itasca is dramatically better than the hospitals we have had in the last two communities we lived in.

In need of lab tests that were ordered by my physician, I tried on two different days to set up a a lab appointment and could not get anyone to answer. The very nice operator even wondered what was going on after multiple attempts on the same day. . After 3 tries in two days, I gave up. This is unacceptable.

I would give 0 if it would let me! My blood pressure has been high and all I wanted was to check my blood pressure by a professional. I was told to go to the emergency room. Because they only treat sore throats and such! I am seriously in disbelief!

Controversial move to not handle Blue Cross patients has kept me and my daughter from going here any more. My favorite Dr here was Dr. Carlisle.

Extremely unprofessional and horrible doctors and nurses in the ER division, especially those that work at night. Avoid at all costs!
