I am at a loss in reading the comments that are critical of Aurora Medical Group in Oshkosh. My…read morepersonal experience has been nothing but exemplary. The medical staff are always, without exception polite, professional, attentive and knowledgeable. Most recently, and I might add, for the first time in 30+ years I found myself in need of the emergency room. The staff were phenomenal! I was seen without any delay, the billing clerk waited until I was being seen and more comfortable before seeking the insurance information, etc., the nurses where more attentive that I thought possible, and the doctor did everything plus. Perhaps those who have been critical had bad experiences. A one-off is always possible. However, I would suggest they revisit the Aurora Medical Center again. I believe they will experience the care, professionalism, and kindness I did.

The triage nurse that answered clearly understood the situation and promised a response in a couple hours. They finally responded FOUR DAYS LATER! By then I had called off the vacation, returned home and taken the needed medication. UNBELIEVABLY POOR CARE!

I was in Appleton Wisconsin (I live in Chicago and also Florida), and was in town to see my in-laws and grandson. I was referred to urgent care physicians by my sister-in-law, and was seen there at about 1 o'clock. I was up by 2 o'clock. I can only describe the care as caring, efficient, and professional. It is 9 o'clock at night, and I am already improving. I would recommend this clinic to anybody with an ambulatory illness. Frankly, I was very impressed!

Big mistake. Now, after repeated efforts and a lot of my time to show Ascension how double payment for a single charge was made, and how Ascension owes me a full refund, they still cannot seem to get their act together. I had to call my bank to find out when my payment was sent, where it was sent to, when Ascension deposited my check in a bank in Minneapolis, and I even suppled Ascension with the Ascension account number at that bank. Then, Ascension disputed that my insurance company, United Health Care, paid Ascension for the $115 charge. An agent from UHC arranged a three-way phone call with the UHC agent, myself, and an Ascension customer service person to verify that UHC did make that $115 payment. Ascension still, still after at least 20 hours of my time and my insurer's time, still cannot manage to return my phone call, even though an Ascension person was assigned to my case and I was told last week, the third week in December 2022, that the assigned person would return my call. If you have a choice of hospital and/or health care systems, Ascension should be your last choice. Worst customer service I have experienced in my 67 years. If you want further proof, last week the New York Times did a front page story on Ascension's shoddy business practices and negligent customer service performance. A Pox on the House of Ascension.

I recently had the displeasure of visiting a friend in Ascension/Mercy's behavior health ward,…read morecryptically labeled only as "lab 5" in the hospital's interior directions. The treatment I personally witnessed there was horrible and inhumane. My friend was deprived of his perscribed medications by a psychiatrist whose information is unavailable through their website and whose credentials Mercy refuses to provide. He had all of his possessions taken away including his list of patients' rights. After all of this I watched a nurse with her nametag on backwards - so as to be unreadable - question why my friend couldn't name the nurse involved in the decision. As a point of fact, none of the nurses in behavior health had their nametags visible during this visit, and it's very clear that this is because of the rate of patient harassment. Even in the presence of myself and another friend nurses at Mercy were happy to outright lie, misrepresent hospital policies available on Mercy's website, try to trick my friend that was already deprived of his medications, and insist that his concerns about his stay were made up. Beyond being in violation of stated Mercy ethics policies and the laws set forth under the Department of Health and Human Services, the treatment my friend received is something no human being should ever be subject to. No one that cares about their loved ones should bring them to this place. It is Merciless.

The line was 5 people deep when I arrived. I still only waited about 5 minutes or so and I liked that their identity verification questions were just partial (street you live on, last 4 digits of phone number). The RN and MD I saw were both very professional, kind and helpful. The MD walked me out to the reschedule station. It was nice to see a practice of patient-centered care.
