    My sweet grandson was born here and they were wonderful! What a great hospital. The nurses were…read moreattentive and kind and so inclusive of all the family members. The rooms were gorgeous with plenty of chairs and seating for family members and they were really as hands off as they could be with my son and his girlfriend and them having their baby. The cafeteria, while expensive, was really great. Hot foods, sandwiches, cold drinks, fruit, breakfast food. They had everything. There is also lots of food places very close if you don't want to eat there. Parking is plentiful, we always found a spot right near the hospital (and this place is big). Our whole family loved this place. I'm thrilled that this is where they had their baby!

    I am extremely disappointed with the care I received in the Emergency Department at St. Dominic…read moreHospital. I was sent directly to the emergency room by a clinic after being told I had a corneal abrasion, a suspected corneal ulcer, and a swollen eye. The clinic was concerned enough about my condition to send me to the emergency department for further evaluation. Upon arrival, I had to wait over three hours before I was taken to the back but then placed on a gurney in the hallway and told that I would be treated there because my condition was not considered an emergency. I was especially displeased to be the only patient treated in a high-traffic hallway where people continuously passed by, stared, and went on with their day, which made me feel exposed and uncomfortable during an already painful and stressful situation. All other patients were placed in rooms while I was awaiting treatment in the hall. They had the unmitigated gall to write in a marker a room number and taped it on the wall by my gurney with my wristband informauto. taped on the wall as well. I felt degraded and uncared for at the same time. I arrived around 5:00 p.m. and waited for hours without being examined by a physician or other provider. During that time, my symptoms became progressively worse. I repeatedly informed the nursing staff that I was experiencing severe eye pain, extreme sensitivity to light, increasing swelling, and worsening symptoms. Despite expressing my concerns and fear that my vision could be affected, no one came to reassess me or explain the plan for my care. After six hours, I still had no relief from my symptoms. Eventually, I was told that there was no ophthalmologist on call. While I understand that not every hospital has an eye specialist available at all times, I expected someone to examine my eye, explain the next steps, or discuss whether a consultation or transfer to another facility was necessary. Instead, I remained in the hallway feeling overlooked, frightened, and uncertain about whether my condition was being taken seriously. The most disappointing part of my experience was not simply the wait--it was the lack of communication, compassion, and follow-up. Being left in severe pain with worsening symptoms and no meaningful updates made me feel as though my concerns did not matter. Patients deserve to be treated with dignity, kept informed about their care, and reassessed when their condition changes. when the doctor did show up, she treated me, but gave me no insight for a referral. I hope St. Dominic Hospital reviews its emergency department processes, particularly regarding communication with patients, timely reassessment of worsening conditions, and ensuring that patients understand the plan for their care when specialty services are unavailable. No patient who is worried about losing their vision should feel forgotten while waiting for treatment. I sincerely hope my experience leads to improvements so that future patients receive the attentive, compassionate, and timely care they deserve. Sincerely, Shiquita M. Williams

    I am at Forest General Hospital for over 9 hours. I am a double heart valve replacement patient and…read moream defibrillator dependant for my heart rate . After COVID I developed defibrillator symptoms in the ventricular side of my heart and they can not correct so I take a medicine Mexilletine to help. This last couple weeks I developed a terrible cough. I went to an urgent care for it it and got some relief so I bought Mucinex Dm Max and unknown to me the active ingredient dextromethorphan interacts in a potentially deadly manner. Increased Toxicity: Because mexiletine inhibits the metabolism of dextromethorphan, the latter can build up in the body. This can lead to increased side effects, including hallucinations, dissociation, and central nervous system (CNS) toxicity. Serotonin Syndrome Risk: Dextromethorphan is a serotonergic agent. If combined with other drugs that increase serotonin, or if it builds up due to decreased metabolism, it can cause serotonin syndrome, a potentially life-threatening condition characterized by high body temperature, agitation, tremors, and coma. Cardiovascular Effects: Mexiletine is used for arrhythmias, and increasing its toxicity by interfering with its metabolism (though usually caused by other drugs reducing its metabolism) could lead to serious arrhythmia or cardiac side effects and possible coma. Yet the ER doctor and nurses put us in the back waiting room for 9 hours now. When I described this to the nurse taking vitals, I got a I'm sorry. This is unexceptable care for anyone let alone a heart patient with potential life threatening issues. I came at 2 a.m in the morning and the took great care of me. I will reasses this after I am treated

    My experience with Forrest General was as a family member of someone with a very complex health…read moreproblem that resulted in life threatening issues. Because it was not my medical problem i will not share specifics but I will share how happy I am that Forrest General is where we ended up. There was a significant amount of time spent there and every single person was very thorough, professional and kind. From the emergency room, ICU, med surg floor, and after care follow up and discharge planning. I even got support from the front desk in the ER at a very hard time for me. Non of this will be forgotten. This much smaller hospital totally rocked and outshined a much bigger hospital. Forrest General will be my hospital from now on. I simply cannot thank them enough.
