Yes this is a legitimate number from the Health Sciences Hospital here in
Winnipeg

This is the phone number that will appear from all phone calls made from Health Sciences Centre in Winnipeg, MB
This phone line cannot receive phone calls, for privacy reasons the actual phone #s will not appear on the caller ID. Some telephones will not accept phone calls from blocked phone numbers so this is why this phone number is the default # you will see.

Caller: Health Sciences Centre

This is the number from HSC Winnipeg. It’s legit. I missed their call, but they left a message for me to call back at another number for the department I was expecting to hear from

Yeah this is an HSC number which does not take incoming calls. Scammers probably know this, so they clone this number in the off chance you are waiting for a call from HSC.

The HSC has no reason to call YOU specifically just to hang up on you, so it's probably a scammer.

Caller: Bell marketing or the HSC

I received a hangup message on my answering machine and looked up the number (204) 775-0055 on the internet.

One hit says it's Bell-MTS (which wouldn't get my business if it were the last phone company on Earth). Another hit brought me to this site. But the hospital has no reason to call me. So which entity — if either — is behind the call?

Caller: HSC

This is most definitely the Health Sciences Centre outgoing call number. It's a no-reply number, so you'll have to listen to the message they leave if you missed it.
If you get something sketchy from this number, it was probably a scammer spoofing it.

It is a HSC number - if you are waiting for an appointment they are calling to get in touch with you - or this why the number called me - 1st time no message 2nd time I answered and that is was it was

Hospital Lottery possibly

Caller: a foreign lady

just got the call today at 10:40 on June 8th, 2020 it was a foreign lady that sounded like she might be filipino asking for someone called HeySan

Called me on June 7, 2020 at 3:24 am and then later that day at 3:00pm. Seems like a bot number or some sort of scam. Not answering it.

Phone rang exactly once and hung up before I could answer. Called back immediately and a robot said this number doesn't accept return calls.

I received a call but no one talked. Tried calling back, but it says this number doesn’t receive call

It’s health science centres outgoing call number

Caller called 7 times in a row over a period of 4 minutes. One message was left on my voicemail, and was not a proper message, sounded faintly like a 20 year old indigenous girl faintly talking to someone in the background. Really hard to make out and no name, call back number or message left.

Caller: (204) 775-0055

called my mobile 3 pm, June 18, 2019. declined call. no message left

called my mobile 3 pm June 18, 2019. declined call. no message left

Caller: I don't know

Prank call from trouble maker!

Keeps calling multiple times a week on my old phone number I still get messages from the number to my email and they are all hang ups

The caller asked to speak to someone with the same name of a missing woman in the city, with an uncommon name

This is a phone number that comes up when ANY number within HSC calls your phone.  Because of privacy legislation, hospital's direct numbers (including faxes) are blocked for Caller ID purposes.  Imagine if someone who was abused had to make a call from a hospital; people who shouldn't know where they are could then deduce where that person is. Or anyone could figure out why someone was getting a call (and your personal health information is private so nobody can leave details of the call unless they are speaking to the actual person they are trying to reach).  HSC's Caller ID used to say Private Caller but if you have your phone number set to automatically block all Private Caller numbers (which are often telemarketers) then ALL calls from within the hospital won't even ring in people's homes. That would include the clinics, nurses' stations, charitable Foundations, etc.  That would be a nightmare when trying to make or confirm appointments, or reach next of kin.  So HSC has a generic phone number for Caller ID so that outgoing calls will still go through.  So when you see that number it IS an HSC number, but it could be from the General, Children's, Psych Health, Women's, CancerCare, etc.                                   So, answer the call :)

This number is NOT an office at the Health Sciences Centre in Winnipeg; it is a publicly accessible landline. That is probably why some of you are getting phone calls at such odd times and/or when you have no connection with or expectation of hearing from HSC regarding a procedure, test, etc.   I received a call traced back to this number from an erstwhile friend who is hospitalized there now.

This is Health Science Center, Hospital.

Unable to answer my phone while at work and not knowing which dept. to contact is highly inconvenient. I guess I will just die of whatever it is before they use my constant email address containing my full name as provided to every Doctor I have seen.calling number is (204) 775-0055

yeh me too

they call and call and hang up as soon as you answer. No reason for me to getcall from them
