This review is for the X Ray department only. I know nothing about their in-patient or ER…read more I took my elderly friend here for a chest xray since she needs assistance. I personally would never go here because I have heard some terrible stories about this place ( go to Enloe). I took my friend in early ( no appointment needed..her doctor called in the order). It was surprisingly clean and not crowded. The building itself is dated and could use a good makeover. The big new glass building next to it ( which I thought I was driving her to) is still not open. After she signed in it was less than 15 minutes to get the chest xay. The techs were very friendly and professional! She had a good experience and we were in and out quickly! There was plenty of parking up front in the morning. I am grateful it was easy and not a long wait ( go early is the key).

The ER and the whole staff need to be fired aswell as any nurses and Dr's "helping"..

I have been so impressed with PDH ({Plumas District Hospital)! Everyone from the staff answering…read morephones to the clinic staff, nurses, and Doctors that have cared for me are a real blessing to our community! I am older and as a senior person often I have gone for care through the emergency where the check in was efficient, admitted with a Nurse right there, the Doctor was knowledgeable and talked me through the tests he was ordering. Lab draw was perfect t as was IV placement (my veins aren't easy but my nurse was skilled and kind. X-Ray was perfect and the testing results given to my ER Doctor, my nurse was kind and NG tube placed with care. I was admitted as an inpatient for 5 days for the issue I had to resolve. The care I received was kind,explanations for care given were clear, and they (all shifts, every nurse) showed care, consideration, and expertise that I have not received at other hospitals. (Yes, I have issues that have required medical care at bigger hospitals when visiting bigger cities. Plus I worked in healthcare for over 30 years. So I know wonderful care when I see it. I am so happy to have been cared for by such a wonderful staff. Thanks to everyone! I do recommend Plumas District Hospital highly! If you're needing care just go or call for an appointment and start the conversation by saying "I need your help"and Thank You! They work hard and I'm happy to give this review. I am so Grateful!

It makes a difference when a Dr. Sees and hears you instead of faking it. Elder abuse is what the clinic is best at not medical attention. No adherence to the hypocrite oath. WHAT GIVES AT EPHC ??? Be very careful use caution at this facility it could mean your LIFE...PS dr Stoll doesn't deserve any stars other than -10

Came here for kidney stone pain and was told my kidney stone was only 5mm.. well I just saw my…read moreprevious scans from another hospital done one week prior to this visit and it's actually 9mm. You guys need a new US tech. Also, I got nothing for the pain and was referred to a urologist in Redding, who told the ER my kidney stone can't be causing the pain since it's stationary.. well pain is subjective not objective and can still cause pain if not moving. Tried calling the urologist so they can see me and evaluate and they wouldn't even see me in office saying because I'm pregnant. Even if pregnant you can treat a stone. Now I'm laying in excruciating pain, spotting now, threw up from the pain... AND what's the point of going to see anyone if they constantly dismiss me? This place is incompetent along with urologist Dr. Fowler in Redding.

What a gift to find such a special emergency room here in Chester! From the receptionist to the…read moreadmitting nurse,Noel, to Dr Dempsey, Bob in X-ray and Terry the Lab man. The whole crew was knowledgeable and confident that they would get to the bottom of my issue and they did! When you can't breathe it gets scary. No lines, no wait and I'm used to big city E-Rooms and this is a gem! After heart surgery last week I went into congenital heart failure and my lungs apparently had fluid in them which kept me from breathing correctly. Within the hour I was breathing fine and am now home!! Don't hesitate to visit Seneca Hospital ER if you have a emergency!!! The whole experience was quick and very effective! Having just moved up here from Santa Rosa we are blessed and thankful to find such a great ER and team!

If I hadn't gone to Enloe, my father would have perished in 3 days after the visits. And this was the HEAD of ALL the doctors to whom made 2 of the miss diagnosis and sent him home. Even though my father had passed out and was brought in by an ambulance on all three occasions, no one ever said he could a possible valve issue and only one doctor recommended he see a cardiologist whenever possible, no urgency. I know due to his age, they assumed he would pass away anyway. Well, the hell with them. After the surgery, the doctor gave him at least 7-10 years longer to survive. I broached the question about monitoring him over night and the response was "Why, he is awake now". Still hadn't received a referral to a cardiologist for my dad in 4 months. I called his primary care doctor 7 times. The nurses in the front are amazing but to follow up with the back of the office, is useless. I requested a hospital bed and waited for a referral, the nurse claimed she was waiting for the second surgery prior upon sending in a request for that and physical therapy. They wanted to see, basically, if he would survive the surgery and not waste their time. ALL items needed, came from referrals by Enloe in Chico. Five Stars for the doctors, nurses and staff. They care and perform all tests needed to come to a REAL diagnosis. Once my father was admitted to Enloe hospital, they gave us a cardiologist, a urologist and a cardiovascular doctor. A report is being drafted to ombudsman and the Medical Board of California, along with all of his medical records. They either need to revamp the hospital with trained staff or shut down.

Seemed like things were going to move along smoothly, triaged right away, got blood work done then ct scan all with in an hour of arriving. Sent back out to ER waiting room. 4 hours later still waiting. When we asked desk person they said "we are waiting for a bed to open up".... we don't want a bed, we want to know the results of CT scan and blood work. Can't get results until you are in a bed!! Waited 15 more minutes and left. Never go there again! Husband still has headache still not feeling well but we are home

Visited December 22nd…read more This hospital and ER are very small. I had to pick up an elderly friend because she needed a ride. She said her wait was minimal! She was treated kindly which is very important ( I have done 2 long tours as a missionary in West Africa so good care along with dignity and respect go a long way!) I am not a patient nor have I ever been here as I do not live in this area but the inside looked clean and she was well taken care of! Btw..it's behind the police station and Burger King. Thank goodness I had gps!
