Started at the ER at 4:24pm, moved to a room many hours later. Medical staff were very professional. Picture of this chair needs to be replaced Overall ER visit was good just a slow process which is to Be expected. read more

Emory University Hospital - Time for a new chair! - Hospitals Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

5 stars for the hospital and staff 1 star for the ER I changed my loved ones insurance to have Emory. It's a higher standard of care and I like teaching hospitals even if 5 scribes and students always accompany the doctor. HOSPITAL/CLINIC Self-parking and valet is a headache and expensive unless you're admitted for three weeks or longer, then you can buy an in and out pass. No parking validation for emergencies. Although the ER and hospital rooms have WiFi, common areas and clinic lobbies lack cell service. Uber drivers can't find you because there are several hospital entrances. Allow plenty of time if you have more than one appointment in different areas (A, B, C). Eye doctors are on three different floors which is confusing. Emory is huge so take advantage of wheelchairs if needed. Some doctors don't read the chart so be prepared to repeat yourself and take notes. Nurses are caring and hard working and the ICU is excellent. There are filtered water fountains & a cafe that's always open for delicious hot meals or snacks although the prices recently increased. Take a pic of the patient menu and call their order in. Clean and comfy rooms have couches, cable, storage and a couch/recliner for guests, some even have views. I love 'My Chart' where records, appointments, prescriptions and communication with your provider is just a few phone clicks away. The ER is another story entirely. EMERGENCY ROOM First visit was for a serious emergency which required surgery. The stay was extended several days for an MRI. We were told even patients arriving in ambulances were lined up stretcher to stretcher to wait for an MRI. Second trip after an accident involved a reasonable wait time and thorough care. But the third visit was the last. We waited in a freezing lobby crammed with sick people for 15 hours before seeing a doctor. We were given a wait time via app which extended until updates stopped completely. I've never heard such bloodcurdling screams, one patient in back sounded like he was being tortured. From 4pm to 6am there were NO DOCTORS. A young man was was crying out in agony after losing his mom. Sadly, people were taking their frustration out on the front desk person due to a lack of security. One guard ran out from the back after being stabbed in the hand by a patient. I had to go for a walk to calm down while my loved one froze, waited and starved. No-one informed us of a cafeteria. Thin blankets were handed out and patients were told no meds without first seeing a physician. We didn't see one until the morning shift arrived. The nurse admitted someone died due to lack of staff and she was going to quit. Thank God my loved ones injury was not life-threatening. I filled out a survey and never heard from Emory. As frightening as this ER experience was, I'd still choose this campus over Emory Decatur where previously, a serious omission was made during surgery and the room wasn't clean. Grady isn't even in the running. But since we're privileged enough to have a car, we'll drive the extra 15 minutes to St. Joseph's for future ER visits. SUM Emory University Hospital (Clifton) has room for improvement, especially regarding ER and parking. But cleanliness, care, comfortable rooms, My Chart, meals and staff are recommended. read more

If you want your family and friends to feel like they're inconveniencing the staff simply by existing, then this is the place. Multiple staff members walked into the patient's room without introducing themselves, looked at visitors as if they didn't belong there, and when my mother in law politely said hello, she was completely ignored. Basic courtesy shouldn't be optional in a healthcare setting. What's even more disappointing is the complete lack of respect for personal space. While I was spending quiet time with my boyfriend, staff would walk directly into our space without so much as an "Excuse me." It takes two seconds to acknowledge another person's presence. The most upsetting interaction happened around 5:00 a.m. A staff member came in to take my boyfriend's vitals while I was lying beside him. This staff member so that I was covering my ear because she was speaking so loudly. Instead of lowering her voice, she moved closer to me and became even louder. Whether it was intentional or not, it came across as incredibly disrespectful, unprofessional, and completely lacking in consideration for someone who had been at the hospital all night. People often forget that the word "hospital" comes from the same root as "hospitality." While I understand healthcare workers have demanding jobs and patients come first, professionalism, respect, and basic manners should never disappear because someone works in a hospital. Those expectations don't only apply to retail or customer service employees--they apply to anyone interacting with patients and their loved ones. I sincerely hope Emory addresses this culture with additional training on professionalism, communication, and common courtesy. Patients are already dealing with enough stress. Their loved ones shouldn't have to feel ignored, disrespected, or unwelcome on top of everything else read more

I thought they would let me pass out before treating me. It was literally the scariest experience to go to this hospital and watch so many of the front desk staff walk around casually as I was screaming for help. My husband was being as patient and even WAITED IN LINE to ask a second person for help to get me out of the car. Long story short, no one helped me from the car. We had a bystander's help getting into the ER. Once in the waiting room, I fell out of my chair because of my lower body cramping and a nurse proceeded to yell at me and my husband without offering any help. The ER was empty at the time. The staff outside told us how horrible this day staff is as I was lifted from the car by strangers. I'm grateful for the few this day. Emory is not the place you want to be treated even on your worst day. read more

Excellent Liver transplant team. They gave my wife her new liver on October 27, 2025! They did beautiful work and with time she has continued to heal and now is in Emory rehabilitation hospital. The transplant team knows what they are talking about and made it easy for me to care better for her. That saved my wife's life and gave us the true gift of more time together. Dr. Morris and team truly do incredible work in the OR and in the hospital room. I am grateful for all that they have done for us. read more

emory university hospital patients: "you have the legal and ethical right to 'know' and say, 'no!'" note: all future surgical patients. euh is a medical "training" facility. they need your body and issues to practice on. they need your consent. sooooooooo!!! be absolutely sure, before you sign a consent form, before you go to that surgical appointment....be sure you ask your doctor these questions: 1) explain the surgery and recovery expectations. 2) are there any options? alternatives? non-invasive ? 3) name who is performing the actual surgery. 4) what will they be doing? 5) you have the right to meet them and ask questions. 6) what are the benefits? 7) have a relative present for all discussions regarding surgery prospects. 8) ask all the questions you want. and 9) you might strongly think about a second opinion, not at the same facility. to all seeking help, be careful, be smart, be in control, do not hesitate to say no until you are sure. the goal of surgery is to wake up to a better you. god bless you and keep you safe. read more

Stay far away from their palliative care it is a kill mill. Very insensitive they gave my mother haladol after i told them no antipsychotics. Once she went to hospice she could no longer talk as they started damaging her brain with mind altering drugs and gave her morphine at high does. The male doctor started pushing the nurse to increase her pain meds to dope her. Their limit is two weeks here to die. I would never recommend emory palliative hospice care in atlanta. Keep your family home if you love them and want them to go with dignity. read more

Emory Healthcare is attempting to do an unsafe discharge of an elderly American citizen due to problems with her health insurance. This is inhumane and cruel the way in which the elderly is being treated today. She requires oxygen, she has a tracheostomy tube for breathing as she is unable to breathe on her own. She has a PEG tube for feeding and foley catheter to assist with urinating. Emory Healthcare has been insisting on letting her die from day one in the hospital, which I refused. Now they are attempting to send her home to die. Emory Healthcare refused to assist with her being transferred to a local nursing home that was willing to accept her citing that they do not wish to have any financial obligation. However, this is the same Emory that, "believes in giving back to the community." This will culminate in Emory allowing undergraduate students to attend the University for free starting this Fall, costing Emory millions of dollars. However, they are unwilling to assist one elderly lady in getting the care she needs as they don't think that it is medically necessary to spend a dime on her to prolong her life! How evil! Emory Healthcare wants to play God! Please do not send your loved ones there! read more

inconsiderate appt scheduling, lack of privacy in facility. Patients information on an erasable board for all to see.

My friends were unfortunate enough to have to be there after they got back from a wonderful trip out of the country, when the wife had oxygen issues. She was in there three days, was not given access to a shower, was in a room with THREE MEN, one of whom was visibly jerking off. The staff was rude and she didn't see a doctor to explain the results of any labs or testing that was done FOR THE ENTIRE THREE DAYS! read more

Very helpful staff. Expert opinions. Willing to discuss and to listen. Clean rooms and great nurses.

Just to be clear, I am reviewing this for the transplant program ONLY. I did not need, nor receive, medical care or any emergency services. We can debate faith vs. science all day long, but the fact remains that modern medicine saves lives. This hospital, in conjunction with Emory University's medical program, is saving lives. Whether it is the exhaustive process of determining matches for donors of organs, or the lifelong process of monitoring the success of a recipient's acceptance of organs, this hospital is unmatched. Forget the fact that this is also a teaching hospital. The best transplant surgeons, organ specialists, and in general, highly-trained doctors are serving here at Emory Hospital. My lovely wife was a brave soul who had volunteered to donate a kidney to a someone in need. I could describe the entire story and process here, but HIPAA likely prohibits that because lawyers. But I will share that the level of care, precision, and medical expertise demonstrated by the surgeons and doctors at Emory Hospital was simply incomprehensible to watch and believe. The net-net is that organ transplants ain't back-alley medicine. There are factors at work that you & I know likely nothing about, even if we're medically trained. Mama Nature & doctors are getting to know one another one corpuscle at a time. Additionally, if you're Yelp-ing which transplant hospital to choose, then you're likely doing it wrong. Emory Hospital is THE place, regardless of the number of stars one can award, for organ transplants and every single thing they are doing backs that up. PSA: You can volunteer to be an organ donor when you receive your driver's license. It's a simple thing and is available to do in all 50 states. It is absolutely your choice, but just know that your choice could save someone's life. I can't think of any greater honor. read more

I arrived at Emory Clinic building at 8Pm with my husband driving and explained to the valet I wanted to visit a friend in the hospital. I explained I ambulate with a rollator and I am a disabled senior citizen. The valet directed me to the information desk, I repeated I have difficulty walking, and he gestured I would have to crossover to the hospital via the over the street bridge. The valet failed to tell us we could drive over to the hospital side and valet there which would have cut my walking by more than 70% I was in sheer agony arriving at my friends hospital room. This was the poorest customer survive I have experienced in my life!!! read more

Thank you for caring for my brother during his many visits to the ER, hospital stays and rehab. :)

Typically I would say this is a good hospital. My wife was diagnosed with pelvic congestion syndrome and the pain was causing her to pass out to the point even the deepest sternum rub wasn't waking her up. The doctor, Dr. Doss saw how bad it was and decided to discharge her anyway instead of getting a consult for her. He discharged her and they put her in my truck completely unconscious, it took 5 people to pick her up and put her in the truck while I only had one arm due to a recent surgery. Without care for her wellbeing or me I had to drive my wife off while she was completely unconscious, I've never been more upset and sad this is how bad healthcare has gotten. read more

World-class doctors, caring staff, and a great environment to get access to great healthcare

My grandmother came in for a rare stomach surgery, and I will start off saying the surgical team and attending physicians did a very good job. From the moment she was in their care it was an instant weight of relief and they cared for her phenomenally and was very attentive every step of the way. Now... getting to that point, I was very disappointed in the nurses and staff in charge of her before she reached her surgery. Every nurse who came to care for her prior, was completely unaware of her condition and had to be reminded constantly of why she was there and to look at her chart. It felt like after we asked the nurses to look at her chart, she received different care and consideration. Wonderful doctors and surgical team, but definitely have an advocate with the person receiving care if they are arriving for something life threatening. I wholeheartedly believe if my family wasn't there, life threatening mistakes would've been made before she reached her surgery. read more

TLDR: 0 stars for routine healthcare. Only go to EUH if it's the only place you can find the specialist you need, or the only ER close enough to save your life. I have a chronic health condition and have received routine follow-up care from the "team" at Emory for over 25 years. I have had multiple, diverse interactions with EUH, both via routine appointments as well as ER visits. Once you actually get to a medically trained professional (e.g. Nurse or Doctor) they are excellent, usually friendly and professional. Unfortunately the administrative and clerical staff at EUH makes getting healthcare almost impossible. I know they are overworked and probably underpaid with high attrition. So, the problem is not really the staff but the EUH administrators and upper level management that don't provide a work experience that would encourage their staff, the ones the public interacts with day in and day out, to give a sh*t. It appears that there is a willful understaffing strategy to maximize profit, duh. In addition there are huge blind spots in staffing. For example, they have switched to Epic (MyChart) so that interactions with your care team go through a messaging system to be responded within 5-7 business days. Unless of course your care coordinator has gone on vacation and no one is monitoring that inbox (real life experience). So, you are forced to go to the ER since you can't get any advice from the care team. On multiple occasions I've had extreme concern about my condition and my only remedy is to go to the ER. I've had the on call service on a weekend never call back. How about trying (in vain) for a week to get a prescription filled, and having to go to a different doctor to get it done? Yep, also a real life experience. Having been a patient at Emory for over 25 years, the attempts to make it better are really attempts to streamline processes (a good thing) but not to make you, the patient, have a better experience, but instead to move more patients through quickly in an effort to maximize profits. The end result is that while wait times might be shorter now than they were 25 years ago, the overall healthcare is much worse. Emory rakes in the money from Coca Cola to keep expanding their empire, but definitely not to improve the quality of their care. Unfortunately they are like Wal-Mart, expanding by acquisition all over the city and replacing competent smaller hospitals and practices with bottom of the barrel care. Emory is literally lowering the quality of care all over the city. read more

My son was admitted to the hospital (Emory Clifton Road) on May 8, 2024 in respiratory failure. He is medically fragile, complex with a history of cerebral palsy, epilepsy and cystic fibrosis,. We 'graduated" from Children's Healthcare in November 2022, He went 400 days with no hospitalization, Since Sept 2023 and his entry to the "adult" world , he has seen 6 weeks with 4 hospital stays in the hospital and complete respiratory failure. The nurses were excellent. My son became dehydrated twice while on an IV in ICU at EMORY CLIFTON ROAD, Ridiculous! There was absolutely no coordination of care. We found out that his Cystic Fibrosis respiratory panel grew a bacteria AT discharge. He is symptomatic and still sick. He is in need of oxygen and no social worker was assigned to his case until day of discharge. My son's care at Wellstar was SUPERIOR to the care at Emory. Emory has this fantastic reputation, however with my medically complex children, I have spent 500 days in a hospital and Emory St Joseph, Johns Creek and Clifton Road offer SUBSTANDARD care. I have spent over 500 days in a hospital, with medically fragile children including Phoenix Childrens, CHOA, John Hopkins, University of Michigan, Piedmont Athen and all Emory Hospitals. My daughter died of Cystic Fibrosis. AVOID EMORY!!! Go to Piedmont . Wellstar or Northside. read more

I went to this hospital and the attending ER Dr. Andrew Pendley was horrible. The triage nurses can only do so much. I came into the Emergency Room and sit for 4 1/2 hours and still didn't see a doctor. The nurse sent this doctor several messages only for the doctor to tell the nurse to tell me I had to continue to wait. Came in severe pain and left in severe pain. This hospital here needs to be closed because they don't have any care or concern for the people who come into this hospital facility. I will never be returning to this location for anything. I have been to several other Emory Hospitals and have never experienced anything like what I experienced at this location. If you need a hospital please keep going past this location!!!! read more

I was admitted to Emory Main ER with severe DKA (diabetic ketoacidosis). Let's just say these professionals know who's seriously ill and need treatment fast. I was in triage in 5 minutes, and in a triage bed in 10-15 minutes, after they stabilized my blood chemistry and breathing. I saw some slight miscommunication between them, but that was understandable given the policies these days. After that it was off to the brand new Emory ICU building where I spent over a week. Andrew and Emily took amazing care of me, knowing I wouldn't be able to eat or drink or even move for a week solid. Couldn't even get a nights sleep, only slept an hour or two each time I could. Dr. Servansky brought a lifetime of critical care experience to my bedside, while resident docs studied my condition. Finally, transferred to Emory Main room, where they monitored my condition and referred me to an internal medicine doctor who called my insurance company, mitigated availability and cost of a new insulin regimen, and referred me to on-site and remote dieticians, who found out my whole life's meal patterns from me. Ever since then, Dr. Kapasi and the Emory Midtown diabetes team has watched my CGM sensor readings and made recommendations via Zoom to get my A1C down. I can't stress enough that Emory absolutely has the best diabetes care teams. Notwithstanding some of the hospital procedures that seemed lacking, that really wasn't the case; you just have to remain patient with doctors and nurses. I will continue to rely on Emory for my health issues while in Atlanta. read more

I can't say enough about my experience with the ER here. First of all, every single person we met was extremely friendly and helpful. Secondly, we got updates to my phone the whole time telling us exactly what was being done and what was next. All test results were sent right to my phone--in detail. Andrew, the doctor who oversaw my case, couldn't possibly have been more friendly, concerned, and thorough. It's obvious the staff has been well-trained and is held to a very high standard of customer service. I wish I lived nearby and could always come to this hospital. It's no exaggeration to say that this is the best treatment I've received at any hospital. read more

Pros: Location, parking, area, cleanliness. Support staff and food services are awesome. Negatives: Poor pre and post op instructions, unskilled Nurses, inexperienced or inattentive Doctors. There seems to be a complete lack of coordination between Doctors, departments, clinics and their patients. We were postponed at the last minute because of lack of pre-op coordination and antibiotic orders. Our appointment time was changed again on the afternoon before the procedure. We were told to show up for pre-op at 9:30. They finally called us in nearly two hours later, only to ask most of the questions that were in his records which they had access to for over a week. One nurse did not know which side the Vena Cava is on. The pre- and post-op instructions were given by a rushed foreign nurse with a thick accent and poor english. The Stat Lock fell off by the time we crossed the street. The same Post op nurse, above, was in a rush to catch her ride. She beat my folks to the pickup lot downstairs. The Surgeon has never called the patient to check on him. This, even after I spoke with his on-call Doctor to report the bleeding around the catheter, and the Stat Lock not sticking and falling off. The Surgeon told us pathology lab results would take 7-10 days. They were completed 2 hours before we left the building. They were NOT reported until 2 days later. These are cancer analyses for God's sake. It has been 5 days since the surgery and lab results. Still no contact from this Surgeon. The catheter comes out in 3 days. I supposed the young Doctor will call and schedule another catheter to be shoved in so they can start treatment. I would travel to Duke or elsewhere for anything EUH is supposed to be known for. read more

The S#&T has begun. After receiving a bill for 2 days in Emory Midtown a bill has come to me for some supplies and services. So far most charges for my procedure are being covered by my Kaiser Permanente insurance through Medicare. I reviewed the Emory bill and found one incorrect charge for medicine. Repeatedly I told nurses, a pharmacist and three doctors bI had my own prescriptions with me knowing they would ask what medicines I take. The second morning I was there the nurse said I could take one of the pills. She walked around my bed and got the bottle of pills from the bag I had carried into the hospital. I took one pill from my prescription and was released from the hospital about five hours later. Now they are charging me over $25, stated I must be lying because they have no documentation of me telling four or five Emory Hospital employees I had my prescription and would take my pill to help keep costs down. read more

Top care! Went in for chronic spams and flares from my Chrons Disease! I have been here approximately 6 to 7 days. Dr.Chung is my provider. And have been nothing less than excellent. She is very knowledgeable, listens, very understanding, and always has such great energy. She has took top notch care of me. I want to shoutout the Cafe. For making sure I always had my food on time. Very pleasant when calling to place a food order. Nice and polite. The nurses really care and are passionate. Yes this is more of training hospital. Although the recent graduates or nothing short of exotic. Phenomenal service and dedication to help the patient. Carmella my nurse for one night made that night such as amazing one. Tino, your direct hands on approach to problem solving and communication. You are ahead of your game. Tianna thank you for being my nurse tech. Blake and Hope you both are amazing. Thank you for your superb care and service. Joy and Yvonna can't forget how you made my night making sure I wasn't in pain or in need of anything. Thanks for coming to my recuse time and time again. I hate going into the hospital but people like all of you makes it hard to leave without being so thankful. That you come to work everyday going through epic trails and your own life problem to give some one else service and a little hope. You are the true hero's and heirs of the world I salute you all.

The state of Emory University's emergency room is shocking for a college with an $11 billion endowment. You'll be greeted by a receptionist who is annoyed by your very existence, then proceed to wait in a basement with the most uncomfortable chairs arranged in a way that doesn't even allow wheelchairs or people on crutches to pass by without constantly banging into them. I guess no one figured those things might be in an ER. No matter your chief complaint, they'll make you do a blood draw and tap you with an IV needle, then send you back into the waiting room with it in your arm (which one nurse being treated there told me is a big no-no and even Grady won't do that). Then, when you finally get examined, it will be in a little alcove right off the waiting room separated only by a shower curtain. Not only can people walking by see in, people waiting nearby can hear everything. But that's not even the biggest HIPPA violation here, the physician will actually come out and discuss your case with you in the middle of the crowded waiting area. How much time does it really save not to have a proper examination and consultation room? Or at least put it where everybody can't hear and see in! I was in this ER for 9 hours and only saw one physician in the entire place. I counted the number of emergency residents in the school's program on the website and there are 55 of them. I saw exactly none helping in the ER, I guess they must all be at other locations. No PAs either, just one doc and a few nurses, or maybe they were MAs. No wonder everything takes so long. The best part is when you get the bill. Regardless of how much or little the physician actually did, they'll bill you for the highest level of care available, which is supposed to be reserved for complex cases that require intense examination and decision making. Migraine headache? Appendicitis? Tough luck, you're getting billed the same as the person who was stabbed or showed up mid-heart attack for the physician portion of your visit. In closing, the quality level on everything here from the physical plant to the attitude of the staff is deplorable. It's remarkable for an institution that is so wealthy and respected in the community. I've never had to visit another ER, but after this visit I wandered into Northside's and could tell just from the layout of the waiting area at least that part was thought out much better. The one positive thing I will say is this hospital probably will diagnose your condition accurately. They just won't do it quickly, kindly, or for a reasonable price. read more

The Cardiac Unit step down unit on 2nd floor is the worst in nursing care. The RNs are young grads and were above average as still have that eagerness to help but the Techs are indifferent. Apparently they have been there awhile and are either tired or have had the job for so long they aren't interested in the patient. I had a 3 vessel CABG and the care I had was minimal. They did their tasks without any compassion or understanding that you are hurting and when you insisted they help you, they looked surprised and then did what you asked. They never asked if you needed anything or offered any other comfort. There was one tech, who was from Nigeria and she was a God sent. The other two-three techs I had either didn't know their jobs or didn't CARE!! My Son wouldn't leave as my call bell wasn't answered at least three times in a timely fashion and only when I crawled to the bathroom and my bed alarm went off, they came running. The RNs who were my RNs were young and. I've but I really think they were intimidated by the older techs. I would not recommend the cardiac step down unit on the 2nd floor at Emory Hospital. I strongly suggest that the Nursing administration look into this before a lawsuit arises from negligent care which can cause harm to a patient. I was a patient in March of 2023. read more

I wouldn'teven give this lace one star@ i've been waiting in the waiting room in the ER for 3 hours with a amputation scar that opened up and is profusely bleeding.

I should have been told upfront. The waiting room is dirty and nurses seem very complacent. I will never return here! read more

My grandma said the food was super nasty which is part of the reason she lost weight fast while she was in there. Also, their parking rates are rather expensive. read more

Emory University Hospital - Hospitals Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

This is my first experience with Emory University Hospital, and it was pretty bad. We arrived at 10:30 for a heart procedure, and sat waiting until 1:00 for a room. Finally, we were taken to a hospital room, and continued waiting for the procedure. Apparently, someone forgot to put us on the schedule, and we were told they couldn't do the procedure until the next morning because of this. Everyone seems confused here. The procedure was finally done that night, 11 hours after it was supposed to be done. That night, the female employee at valet parking drove my car up, then got out and smoked a cigarette instead of bringing in my check so I could leave. The employee who's shift had just ended was very nice, and finally told me not to wait any longer but to just leave. This is an old hospital that looks like it is falling apart. Parking is crazy. To be fair, most of the Drs and most of the nurses were kind. read more

I went here for routine mammogram. It was my first time as I usually go to Dekalb or Hillandale. Although they are all in the emory system, they're computer systems don't talk to each other so you have to sign a release to allow them to communicate. My only instructions was the address and to come 30mins early for check in. Well I needed the 30mins, not for check in, that only took 10min, but to park and find out where to go! There is dedicated parking but you have to follow signs for clinic parking. Min$4, max is $12. The Breast Center is in bldg C with Winship. I had to stop a staff member for help and she was kind enough to escort me. The staff is pleasant and accommodating. I was 30mins late due to traffic and they were able to still get me in. They take a break between 1115am and 1215pm. The office is open but they don't call anyone back for scans during that time. There's a TV in all the waiting rooms on HGTV, which is always good to pass time. They have warm waffle robes to change into and bags to put your clothes in, which they had me keep with me. There are lockers but I was not instructed to use them. Now that I have a handle on where the Breast Center is, I would go back and recommend. They were kind and efficient. Emory just needs a little more signage read more

I came in to ER with Pneumonia, shortness of breath and chest pain: I wasn't seen until 6 hours after my arrival. They draw your blood, ekg, IV, etc. in a small cubical by the lobby and then send you back to the waiting room each time they do a step. Once you get to the back, they give you a chair, not a bed; where you will wait even more hours to be prioritized and treated. Also, the space you'll be put in is patient only, so your (1) allowed family member won't be with you. By the time my labs came back, I was here for 13 hours. The nursing buttons in the bays are ignored; if you continue to press it, you're met with attitude. Some of the staff can have nice attitudes when they want to-- but they get upset because they don't have any answers, even though you're told to ask them any questions you may have. In addition to the horrible experience (during my 2nd visit), I was not properly cared for during my first emergency visit. I was at the midtown location where I was supposed to be treated by a Dr.-- they proscribed me the wrong amount of medication, and improperly diagnosed me. Another Dr. had to catch that I had pneumonia bc Dr. #1 failed to order a CT scan; so my symptoms returned after taking the meds that were incorrectly prescribed. Do yourself a favor and don't come here, go to St. Joseph or Piedmont. This has been one of the worse hospital visits I've known anyone to have. These people cannot care about anyone for me to have had the type of experience that I had (twice). Please go somewhere you'll been seen, heard, and prioritized, Emory is not that place. read more
