Received call asking if I refused treatment, I indicate, yes , but did not want to hear that I was there for 5 hours and that I would have to wait another hour before an bladder test need to be performed when there are two doctors attending to me, however, they were earlier shooting the sh*t, while I was still waiting to see-you the same two doctors.

Phone number not recognized. Left message saying my first name and it is after hours to call back. All family accounted for. Didn’t return call

Caller: (204) 788-8588

I’ve blocked it and still get repeated calls. Says it’s my area code. I have never answered it and from the look of the complaint comments above, I sure won’t. So glad I had call display.

This number has called me several times. I have never been to the hospital nor have I been out if the state I live in. How can we stop these calls. I blocked them and they still call at all hours. I was woke up at midnight from this number. Most annoying person on earth. STOP CALLING ME!

Some lady named Joan just called me after I came back from Victoria Urgent care to ask about my experience. When I said I was very unhappy there she just hang up on me....rude!

It's is A number Manitoba Health calls from if you laeve a hospital without seeing o doctor, or to give info, or ask you to come back etc....,.

probation services home monitoring program also has this number.(204) 788-8588

Yes, used for all Winnipeg, and Brandon hospitals a WRHA number with many uses. As if someone calls from a hospital, you leave emerg, with out being seen, they call, but can only talk to the patient as its the law of the Personal health Information act. (PHIA). Some people don't want others to know there in emerge or urgent Care for personal reasons, same reason a message can't be left. Also If you are a patient, use one of the emerg. phones to call someone this # will also appear, but can not be called back.

Hospital call backs for southern MB. mainly Winnipeg and Brandon. leave an ER without seeing a Dr. they call, Someone using a patient phone this # appears, a nurse calling you, etc... Appointment reminders, even for Cancer care Manitoba. A general one number does it all type thing to keep confidentiality and follow privacy rules. Not aloud to leave messages and can only talk to the one there calling for. like a Dr. cant give info. without specific consent from the patient, neither can the people calling from (204) 778-8588, as it is about that specific patient. They will call for up to 24 hours if you ditch the emergency room, to see if your alright, or have gotten treatment somewhere else.

same here....

received a call asking for my son by his first name, when I stated that he was not home and could i take a message they stated abruptly "no" and hung up.  It was a disconcerting call since my son is underage.
