    This is the foreign body stuck in my esophagus for 3 1/2 days because the doctors refused to treat me.

    If I could give zero stars to my ER experience that would be more than generous. This nonsense of leaving patients on a cart in a busy hallway is so demeaning! The only nurse who deserves a 5 star rating is Donna on day shift. She genuinely cares.

    Between vaping and smoking thought this was a non smokers campus.

    Having surgery this wednesday & they told my wife to remove ALL nail polish. Has anyone heard of this before?

    Yes. Nail polish interferes with a pulse oximeter reading. You need a pulse oximeter during surgery.

    Restaurants close to hispital?

    Do you consider Chipotle or Firehouse Subs a restaurant?

I explained to them that unfortunately I was uninsured and unemployed, but I was wondering if they could provide treatment because I had severe pain all over my body after being in a 3 vehicle collision just an hour ago. The receptionist said yes, and they led us to the back. After they took my vitals, I was informed that I would need to pay a $600 deposit before leaving and I would be billed the rest. I explained that I didnt have $600, which is why I had explained my situation upon arrival. They told me I would be charged the $600 regardless of whether I stayed or not because they were already providing the service (taking my vitals), so that I might as well stay. I was made to feel like I had no choice to I started calling relatives to ask if I could possibly borrow the money. I was advised to leave and decline services, so I politely informed them I wanted to leave and they could bill me the $600 later but I didn't want to stay. On my way out I overheard the receptionist tell the nurse that she HAD told me about the $600 upfront cost, so I turned around and corrected her. I reminded her she, in fact, had not. Why would I accept a service I knew I couldn't afford ? She then snapped back and me and basically recanted her earlier claim to the nurse by saying, "We are not LEGALLY OBLIGATED to inform you of any costs, only to provide you care." I told her it wasn't fair to disclose to patients that there is an upfront cost until AFTER it's too late to deny the charge. They deliberately waited until they took my vitals to inform me of upfront cost. She insisted that she did nothing wrong as she was following the law, and I walked out. Please don't go to this location. Do not trust people like this with your health. Taking advantage of people needing this critical service is a disgrace. Beware

I will tell you that during this long stay, we interacted with dozens of different teams. And this was an overall good experience. From the security people, nurses, techs, doctors, cafe staff, and even the cleaning crew- we were treated respectfully and everyone communicated with us. And these doctors took the time to really explain what was happening. I know from stays at other hospitals that family is often left in the dark about how and what needs to be done, but they have all been very transparent and ensure we know what they know.

    I brought the client I care for to the ER and we were seen fairly quickly, which I appreciated…read more Unfortunately, several aspects of the care were concerning. The RN assigned to us was somewhat polite, but when we asked for water for the patient, we were told we could get it ourselves rather than being assisted. I also did not observe the IV port being sanitized before medication was administered, and a green disinfecting cap was not placed on the IV afterward. In addition, the pads the patient was lying on had visible blood on them and were not changed. I ended up removing the soiled pad from underneath her myself. These are basic cleanliness and sanitation practices that are important in a hospital setting. The experience left me feeling like I had to closely watch the care being provided to make sure things were being done properly. I hope hospital leadership or patient relations reviews this feedback and reinforces proper care standards for future patients.

Many of the 1 ratings on this page pertain to billing, Emergency Room experiences, and feelings of mistreatment. Our family member, several weeks ago, felt the imaging staff had no respect for her fragile body and curved spine. They knew what they needed to do, they had a long, busy, full night. The patient was a technical task needing solving. Some years ago, a doctor gave me his opinion from, as he said, "The view from 30,000 feet. " The view here from 30,000 feet is "Medical City". I do not know how many thousands of people "live" in this city from Janitors to food prep, nursing, brain surgeons and administrators. It is a complex place dealing with every aspect of human bodies, birth to preservation, and who is going to pay for these services and how. January, 2026 we learned, at a physical therapy center, the insurer of our family member withdrew Medicare Advantage coverage from them December 31, 2025. We scrambled. Elderly, on Medicare, we fell back on standard Medicare, but paid out of pocket for awhile. My heart goes out to people crushed between low pay and less than stellar medical insurance, and the medical institutions treating them, no matter the circumstances. We do not know what this hospitalization will ultimately cost our family. Care of our family member has been deep and wide. I think of thecduffering of my ancestors from falls, infections and the many diseases I get vaxed for. It is miraculous age. I see medications delivered at millionths of grams keeping a body functioning and relatively oit of pain. I am amazed. I see the teams assembled to work these medical miracles and I am amazed.

Nurses aside, the rest of the staff has question marks. Let's start with the gestapo ICE wannabes sitting in the emergency room that ask you what you are doing there and then tell you to go stand in line. They cannot hear a thing behind that stupid glass. Just cover your face like your heroes and get rid of the glass. The doctors all seem concerned on what happened on a test 5 years ago so much more so than a current test result. The high blood pressure from 5 years ago has already been addressed... as you can tell by the current readings. As a visitor, one day I walk in freely and go where I want, no questions asked. The next day a dude runs me down like he's a free safety to tell me he has to check me in and give me a designer paper bracelet to wear. If the free safety is correct, the day 1 staff should be fired for dereliction of duty. Why is it not possible to assume that anybody not in a hospital gown is a visitor? Why is the bracelet necessary? Somebody got paid to come up with this idea.
