    Writing this review as a patient visitor. My dad recently had surgery here. GSMC is a big hospital…read morethat offers lots of heathcare services like an emergency room, a Cardio unit, and more! They also have a cafeteria. It is located off of Highway 17 and is easy to get to. As far as parking goes, they do have a big lot, and also a vallet if needed. I visited twice, and entered via the south entrance. Here they also checked us in, asked for Id, took our photo and was given a vistors pass. Both times i visited (one on 7/30/26 and another on 8/02/2026) The security person at check in was very nice. I was also with someone and knew where to go, but the security person also provides directions. Only quam is that it is chilly in hospitals, and highly recommend to bring a Jacket or something. Also, i'm surprised that there is no map of the hospital around- if i was by myself, and perhaps bad at directions, I feel that I would get lost in there! Anyways, found my dad's room in the cardio unit okay. Another thing is that there is only 2 chairs in the room, and if people want to stay long there should be another chair of some sort. At the visit of 7/30, someone needed to stand because we were 3 people. Oh, and met the surgeon and the nurse and everyone was nice. The nurse was also nice because it was time to remove some tubes that were in my dad, and she was explaining what she was doing and had a calming demeanor. Glad to see- although sort of wish I didn't have to see that because my dad said ow when the tube was out. Some people don't like seeing their family members in pain like that. Anyways. Oh and used the restroom on the south strand side, and it was a single stall! Clean but of course there was a line to the womens room for the single stall. Wasn't on the main entrance side, but hope the main entrance has more restroom stalls! This is my review as a visitor, and it was easy visiting this place.

The staff was amazing. Couldn't have asked for better.

My arthritis has never given me an issue whatsoever. If he would have just looked at my wrist, he would have seen bite marks that I saw the next day when I got the swelling down.

    Well, I got home Monday from a 6 day-5 night stay at Hotel Waccamaw as we lovingly refer to it, or…read moreTidelands Waccamaw Community Hospital in Murrells Inlet. It was a long visit this time. My 3rd in two years. I was on 3 West. The staff was excellent. I was on a regular diet. The food was good; not fancy, not like I'd make it myself, but good! Foodservice staff were very pleasant. I worked in healthcare foodservice as my career and can appreciate what they do. The food was hot, or cold if appropriate, on time, and accurate. In any event, I'll be back in July for surgery and hope to have another good experience.

I initially spoke with the front desk staff, who then went to get the office manager. The Practice office manager (Cathy) proceeded to come into the waiting room and inform me that I could not swap doctors (which was originally Catherine Bourne-NP} Particularly upsetting was that this conversation took place in the waiting room, in front of other patients who were sitting and waiting to be called, rather than in a private office setting. I felt this situation lacked professionalism and sensitivity. Additionally, I felt insulted by the repeated statement that "we do not swap patients." The wording itself felt inappropriate and demeaning. Patients are individuals seeking medical care, not objects to be swapped or traded. Throughout the conversation, the office manager repeatedly emphasized that Catherine Bourne, NP, had received many accolades. My concern, however, was never about credentials or accolades. Unfortunately, our experience with Catherine Bourne, NP, was not a positive one, and a previous letter had already been submitted regarding our first visit. At that time, my husband was undergoing both radiation and chemotherapy, and we were already dealing with an overwhelming and emotionally difficult situation. All I wanted was for my husband to see a neurologist who could better understand his condition and provide care that was more compatible with his needs. My husband was experiencing aggressive dementia symptoms, which require patience, understanding, and compassionate care. I understand that physicians may have the right to decline taking on a patient if necessary. However, I do not understand why a patient should not have the opportunity to seek another provider who may be a better fit for their medical and emotional needs.

    Dear Customer Service,…read more I am writing to express my disappointment with the care and treatment I received in the CMC Emergency Department on Sunday, August 2, 2026, at approximately 8:30 a.m. Before I begin, I want to make it clear that I have always had outstanding experiences with CMC. About three and a half years ago, when I moved to this area, I decided that CMC would be my healthcare provider because every doctor, nurse, and staff member I had encountered was kind, compassionate, and made me feel welcome. Unfortunately, my experience in the Emergency Department was completely different. When I arrived, the gentleman working at the registration desk did not acknowledge or greet me. I had to approach him and ask if this was where I needed to register. Instead of welcoming me or asking how he could help, the first thing he told me was that there were a lot of people waiting, there were no beds available, and that I would have a long wait. He repeated this several times throughout our interaction. At the time, there were only about five people in the waiting room. Whether there were five people or fifty people should not matter to someone seeking emergency medical care. Patients come to the Emergency Department because they are worried about their health, and hearing repeatedly how long the wait will be only adds to their anxiety. While checking me in, I explained that I was experiencing chest pain that was radiating down my left arm. His response was, "I don't care about your arm. Tell me more about the chest pain." I understand that he may have been trying to focus on the most urgent symptom, but the way he said it was dismissive and lacked compassion. There are much more professional and caring ways to communicate with a patient who is frightened and not feeling well. The night before, I had spoken with the on-call physician, who advised me to go to the Emergency Department because of my symptoms. Since it was late at night, I told the doctor I would come first thing in the morning unless my condition became worse, in which case I would call an ambulance. I tried several times to explain this, along with my other medical concerns, but I was never given the opportunity. In addition to my chest pain, my legs and feet had become extremely swollen. My physician, Dr. Boykin, had prescribed medication to help reduce the fluid buildup because there was concern that my kidneys might not be functioning properly. The medication was not helping, and that was another important reason I came to the Emergency Department. Unfortunately, I felt as though no one wanted to hear about those concerns. After my EKG was completed and I was told I was not having a heart attack, I became so discouraged by the way I had been treated that I decided to leave without receiving further evaluation. Looking back, I realize that was probably not the best decision, but I simply no longer felt comfortable staying. No patient should ever feel driven to leave an emergency department because they feel dismissed or unwelcome. I also heard a nurse yelling loudly in the background while I was checking in. I do not know what the situation was, but from a patient's perspective, it came across as chaotic and unprofessional. I understand that emergency departments can be extremely busy and stressful. I also understand that staff members deal with difficult situations every day. However, those circumstances should never prevent patients from being treated with dignity, compassion, and respect. I do not know the name of the employee who checked me in. He was a gentleman with gray hair working the registration desk that Sunday morning around 8:30 a.m. I ask that you identify him and address this matter appropriately. Whether that involves coaching, additional customer service training, or another corrective action is your decision. I simply do not want another patient to have the same experience I had. Again, I want to emphasize that this complaint is not about CMC as a whole. My experiences with your physicians, nurses, and office staff have consistently been excellent, which is exactly why this incident was so shocking and disappointing. I would appreciate hearing from someone regarding this matter and learning what steps will be taken to address my concerns. Thank you for taking the time to read my letter and for considering my feedback. Sincerely, Rob H 11-01--64

    FRAUDULENT BILLING PRACTICES! Update on this review: CMC hospital is still billing me to this day…read more In fact, now their anesthesiologists has joined the party, and is also billing. PLEASE STOP BILLING ME. GET IT TOGETHER CMC AND FIX YOUR BILLING SYSTEM ONCE AND FOR ALL. I have a balance of 87.10 on my account and now the new anesth. bill. Once again, I have two insurance policies. If any balance remains after the first policy pays, the second policy pays the rest. This is the first time in over 20 years that I have EVER had this problem - only with CMC. Please have a heart, please fix this. My mom is worn out from trying to help me with this. 15 calls now. The supervisor in billing promised to take care of this, yet the stress continues. I would have given this hospital five stars, but because of there billing department they deserve a 1 star rating. I had nasal surgery October of last year and I am not supposed to be billed at all because I am on dual insurance coverage. What one does not pay, the other does. Dr. Darin Sutton was a great doctor but the billing at CMC is awful. My mother has called in 10 times now. Today we spoke with Destin, before that it was Rose, Tammy, Brittany, and a bunch of other staff in billing. We were told many times to call our insurance, although my insurance said that the hospital/office should not be billing or bothering me at all. My mom has spent lots of time trying to get this fixed, but I still show a balance. The last lady my mom spoke with actually said that the bill would go to collections if we don't pay. I have never been billed for a dime from any doctor or health office. My insurance pays for all of my medical needs. This is stressful and neither of us would use CMC again. Another 45 minute call begging for CMC to file the claim, and stop billing us.

They didn't code the visit as a wellness visit and coded as a meet and greet with a new doctor. This was despite me not requesting a change of primary care provider. The change was only necessary because the provider left McLeod. After I got bills from McLeod , I contacted them and they eventually corrected their own bill but they are refusing to contact labcorp with updated coding so that labcorp can correct their bill. I have spent too many hours of my time on the phone with blue cross and with labcorp and they both tell my it has to be the provider who initially ordered the blood draws that has to contact them in order for this to be corrected.

They would not allow me back to see him or talk to the dr. The charge nurse was no better and didn't want to hear anything I said. I did nothing wrong, I was in tears and so worried. These women should not be in the nursing profession they have no people skills, kindness or compassion. I will be filing a formal complaint and will not stop until I'm sure no one else will have to go through what I did. Also he was sent home in the same condition as he came. He asked me to take him to a different hospital. We went to seacoast McLeod And he was admitted. On a good note they were so very very kind and compassionate and treated his condition with the concern it deserved. It was the best hospital experience you could have asked for. Every single person was absolutely amazing. Thank you to all including our amazing floor nurses Kimberlyn and Shay.
