Brought my mom in as she was septic and the ER staff was amazing but once she got admitted to…read more3South the care was no longer there. I watched staff for 4 hours on day one and they would come in and check her vitals and leave but never emptied out her full catheter bag nor offer her water. I finally ended up emptying out the bag at hour 2 and asked the next nurse how often are they supposed to empty it out and she told me "oh just push the call button and we will come". So I guess it's not part of their patient care to check catheter bags unless patient requests for it to be emptied out. Day 2 still in 3South, I came in and her IV machine was beeping and it can be heard in the hallway. It took a nurse an 45 minutes to come and check the IV machine which was not pushing her fluids. Day 3 still in 3South, my mom calls me to tell me she hit her call button and had been waiting about 10 minutes to get help to use restroom but no one came and she ended up soiling herself. I HAD to call to get a CNA to go check on her and that still took another 10 minutes. When the CNA finally comes into the room, she asks my mom "Do you want something to clean yourself?". Ummm, hello she couldn't get up on her own to use the restroom so you think she can clean herself?? Really?? By far the worst care I've seen so far offered by this hospital. I do want to say I am giving it a 3 star as she had a wonderful RN and CNA at night who took really good care of her and my mother made sure to tell me how well they took care of her. Seems like the lack of care is on the day shifts.

I will not be going back to Kaweah Health Hospital. Took…read morehusband in on evening of July 2. He was having difficulties with Speech. Possibly stroke issues. 2 days later, still no MRI or lumbar puncture that was discussed for them to do. He was treated as a stroke patient, with a new medication. Upon release, wasn't even told to follow up with a neurologist. After going to another facility it was determined he had suffered a small stroke.

1 STAR - A PATTERN OF INTIMIDATION, DISMISSAL, AND FAILURE OF BASIC CARE…read more I waited a long time before writing this review because I wanted to be fair and accurate. Unfortunately, after multiple emergency room visits, I feel an obligation to document what I experienced so other patients -- and leadership -- understand what is happening here. This was not one bad interaction or an overwhelmed shift. It was a pattern of deeply inconsistent care, ranging from truly exceptional compassion to behavior that was dismissive, intimidating, and completely inappropriate in a healthcare setting. THE STAFF WHO DID IT RIGHT It is important to acknowledge the individuals who genuinely embodied what emergency care should be: * Katie, RN -- Calm, compassionate, grounding, and professional during a severe panic attack. * Stephanie, BSN & Douglas, LVN -- Absolute angels. Consistently kind, attentive, patient, and humane across visits. * Matthew, PA-C -- Took the time to listen without judgment and treated me with respect. * Initial Security Team -- Treated me with dignity and kindness, helped me safely off the floor during a panic attack. * Alexandra Rogers, Phlebotomist -- The best blood draw experience I've ever had. Gentle, skilled, and compassionate. * Amber C., Patient Access Specialist -- Warm, welcoming, and grounding. * Third ER Visit Physician (MD) -- Truly exceptional bedside manner, professionalism, and advocacy. I am genuinely honored to have received her care. These individuals are the only reason this review is not zero stars. THE DISTURBING PART During my first ER visit, I witnessed a young boy experiencing crushing chest pain that went unaddressed for an alarming amount of time. His mother explained he had fallen while playing sports and the pain had worsened to the point they came to the ER. Watching a child in obvious distress without timely escalation was deeply upsetting. When I attempted to document events using voice-to-text, the response from staff escalated instead of de-escalated. * Anna, RN spoke to me rudely, told me to "sit down," and warned me not to record. * The interaction became confrontational rather than therapeutic. SECURITY USED AS INTIMIDATION Instead of calming the situation, Evan L., Security, was called. He told me I needed to "be respectful" or I would be forcibly signed out AMA without receiving care. His tone and presence felt punitive and coercive. Being threatened with loss of medical care while already in a medical crisis was frightening and inappropriate. Hospital security should exist to protect patients -- not intimidate them or threaten removal of care. A MOMENT THAT SHOULD NEVER HAVE BEEN NECESSARY Later, as I was returning from my own EKG -- which was significantly worsened due to the stress of the earlier nurse and security interaction -- I saw that the boy with crushing chest pain was finally called for an X-ray. His mother and I shared a brief moment of relief that his pain was finally being taken seriously. It should not have taken that long. DENIAL OF BASIC HUMAN NEEDS During a severe panic attack, I repeatedly asked multiple staff members for water. No one brought me any. I only received water because a friend brought it from outside the hospital. Denying water to a patient in acute distress is unacceptable. ADDITIONAL UNPROFESSIONAL CONDUCT * Clarissa, ED Tech treated me disrespectfully and refused to tell me my weight after I requested it. * Alyssa, LVN rushed my discharge, provided no education, and failed to ensure prescriptions were sent. The pharmacy later confirmed they received nothing, including essential asthma medication. * Andy, PA-C appeared distracted, failed to provide water, refused to identify himself during a follow-up call, and hung up without resolving a medication issue. These failures delayed care and caused unnecessary stress. FINAL THOUGHTS This emergency department has outstanding individuals, but also serious systemic and cultural problems that cannot be ignored. No patient should ever: * Be intimidated by staff or security * Be threatened with removal of care * Be denied water during a panic attack * Be rushed out without education * Leave without essential medications I sincerely hope leadership and patient safety teams take this review seriously. Patients deserve safety, dignity, and compassion, especially in moments of crisis. 1 star

Reception staff were very nice & so was the medical assistant. After being seen by the medical assistant, I waited over 1 hour before being seen by Dr. Banks. When she walked in, she quickly introduced herself, told me I was pregnant, handed me a sheet with my estimated due date & told me I would need to schedule a follow up appointment for bloodwork + a meeting with an educator to go over prenatal care. The whole interaction was about 2 minutes before she dismissed herself from the room. She did not ask me any questions regarding my pregnancy so far - I have never felt so unseen before. This is my second pregnancy so thankfully I know what to expect. What bothers me is the "quality" care this medical office claims to give. That was horrible service, I would definitely not recommend this place. Visalia OBGYN & their quality care is truly missed. It's unfortunate that some women have to downgrade & experience this kind of care. I will definitely not be coming back.

This place takes the cake for being the WORST. If i could give this place a 0 i would happily do so. My first appointment to confirm my pregnancy was ok, the second appointment to be set up with a doctor and go over medical history was TERRIBLE. I was assigned an OB who i was told accepted my insurance. I didn't question anything because as a patient that isn't my job. Only to be notified when I arrived for the appointment that he did not. I was told by the incredibly rude receptionist that i could not pay for the appointment out of pocket and would have to come back 5 hrs from now or not be seen for another month or so. I waited around for 5 hours because (i live over an hour away) where I was then assigned to the OB Dr.banks. She walked into the room. Did not make eye contact, did not address the concern i had and then walked out without saying anything to my husband or I. I was incredibly frustrated with how unprofessional she was so i did not schedule my ultrasound that day. A few days later i decided to try and schedule the ultrasound. WHAT A JOKE. I was pointed in every direction but the one to get an ultrasound. Every single person was rude and misleading. No one had any clue what was going on. I tried for over a week and a half. Calling every single day sometimes numerous times a day. On the 13th day of trying i got a call saying i could go to get an ultrasound at an office 15 minutes away from me. When i called said office to schedule the appointment. I was informed they don't even do ultrasounds. That was my last straw so I went else where to get the care i deserve. Please don't waste your time here.

We have had calls from Dr. Sunalp's office changing our appointments several times; have arrived and been told we didn't have an appointment; and have called in to change an appointment and were told that appointment was not made. My mom called yesterday to let me know they changed her appointment time. I called them back to try to schedule it for afternoon instead of morning, and the girl who answered the phone said the appointment had not been changed, but she would change it for me to 1:00 p.m. My mom has recently been in the hospital and is not doing well. This appointment was simply a follow-up to make sure that her eyes were doing well after she was taken off a blood thinner for a clot in her lungs. We arrived right before 1 p.m. and I asked the gal at the front desk if they could get her in as quickly as possible since she was not feeling well and was very weak. She said they would do their best. In the meantime, Dr. Sunalp was walking through the waiting room and noticed my mom and began speaking to her. She mentioned to him that she wasn't feeling well, and asked if he could get her in quickly as we have waited hours in the past for some appointments. He said he was going to lunch and then he had to see a patient at the hospital. I told him we had a 1:00 p.m. appointment, and he repeated that he had not eaten lunch and needed to go to the hospital. The gal at the front desk asked him if she needed to dilate my mom's eyes, and he told her to look at her chart; and I can't remember his exact words to her, but they were something like "what do you think I am, psychic?" After all the craziness with the changes in appointments and waiting hours for appointments, OK, this was the straw that broke the camel's back. He was rude to me, then he was rude to his clerical assistant in front of everyone in the waiting room. I don't care how good a doctor he is, he does not get to talk to his patients or his staff in that manner. We will not be back, and I will tell everyone I know about it including the doctor who referred us to him.

They have the longest waiting time. The doctor was arrogant,…read morerude and disrespectful to my father and mother in law. He only wanted to follow up in a month, but needs to be monitored more closely. He re-prescribed a medication that caused a reaction in him previously. He appeared to busy, distracted and irritated to take appropriate action and time to help them. He even talked down about the doctor that referred us to him. We will be going to a different doctor to get through the complications he has been having since his surgery with Dr. Sunalp. I never recommend anyone to go to this doctor.
