At one point I went into the emergency room about 15 years ago and had to have my appendix removed. It was a fantastic experience, all things considered. I've also used them for primary care for a long time. IU Health is a beast that should be avoided at all costs. Monroe can handle X-rays, MRIs and a number of other services. The building size is modest, which is great for people like me who can't walk very far comfortably. They are always friendly, and the NPs I've used for my primary care have been fantastic. Support them every chance you get. The services are great, and we need to keep them going.

I came to Monroe Hospital in severe abdominal and chest pain. I could barely walk and collapsed to…read morethe ground because I couldn't stand. The pain was so intense I genuinely thought I was going to die. After an EKG, my experience went downhill. An older male staff member undressed me with the door open, compromising my privacy. He then attempted to draw blood. It was extremely painful -- I was screaming and crying -- and when he forcefully pulled the needle out, I told him I could not tolerate another attempt and asked for someone else. He told me that if I refused him, I would "be waiting in pain." I then laid in a room for over an hour and fifteen minutes crying, moaning, and vomiting from the pain. No one checked on me. Staff were laughing and joking in the hallway while I was in visible distress. When I pressed the call button, it took several minutes for someone to respond. I told the nurse I was in unbearable pain and that something was seriously wrong. I was told, "I'm not going to listen to you complain," and he walked out. I left immediately and went to IU Health Bloomington Hospital. There, I was treated right away. An ultrasound showed my gallbladder was swollen with stones. My white blood cell count and liver levels were elevated. I required pain medication, nausea medication, further imaging, and may now need admission and possible surgery. This was a serious medical emergency. The lack of urgency, compassion, and professionalism at Monroe Hospital could have resulted in severe complications. No patient in that level of pain should be dismissed, humiliated, or ignored.

I dealt with a problem for two years; it was the most miserable and frustrating years of my life until these two doctors cared enough to get to the bottom of the problem and made the necessary referral for me. Dr. Chang and Dr. Ghosh are both very kind, understanding and patient. I had abdominal rectal prolapse surgery on 11/12/09 at Kendrick Regional Center and it couldn't have gone any better. I was terrified about being put out and having this surgery, but these two doctors encouraged me, were very positive, continued to advise and help me until I had the surgery. Dr. Johansen and Dr. Maun performed my surgery and did an exceptional and outstanding job. I'm doing great and I can't say enough good things about Dr. Ghosh and Dr. Chang. They have both been amazing and given me exceptional treatment. Dr. Ghosh and Dr. Chang at IMA Associates truly display the highest qualities of a wonderful and caring doctor. I would rate these two doctors above and beyond five stars. I'm very grateful to have them as my doctors and give them my sincere thanks and greatest appreciation. Susie F.

I went to Ima which is located in the same building as my local physician. They confirmed over the phone that I would be able to have my blood drawn there and the tests would be sent to my physician, not being a part of IU Health was not an issue for them. The woman at the front desk was very pleasant, took my information and after a short wait I was directed into the back room with a phlebotomist. All the staff was very friendly and the visit was quick and painless. I went back a few days later to get a printed out copy for my own records and to share with my local doctor.
