I was going to write a review based of my girlfriends time at 5T but then I saw the by the review…read moreleft by Kris J... I just had to share my experience. The nurse in 5T both day and night are some of the most caring individuals we have ever met. Mary Ann the lead nurse is actually the sweetest and I can attend that she has no bad bone in her body. When I would walk around the unit, I saw her running around helping everyone and never complaining. I don't know about Zack and his story but more often than not....Most individuals will not give out their last name for safety purposes... such as this case of a nut job Kris looking them up and harassing people. So creepy and unprofessional, you don't do that to anyone regardless of how mad you are. What is also uncalled for is posting a private conversation you have with a different nurse and posting it for your own gain. Do better lady. 5T and PACU are such an amazing unit with staff and I'm beyond blessed they saved my partners life. Yes ALWAYS room for improvement but that's everywhere you go.

Avoid the ER at Keck Medicine of USC in Arcadia. My experience was horrible…read more I arrived just before 6 PM yesterday and was not checked in until around 11:30 PM. I understand that ER wait times depend on severity and that some patients may need to be seen sooner, but the way the front staff treated people was unacceptable. I went in because of severe back pain to the point where I could barely walk. I have children and a very high pain tolerance, but this pain had me in tears. Around 9 PM, I politely asked if they had any updates because it was becoming extremely difficult to sit and wait. The staff member at the front was rude and told me to "go sit down and wait for the nurse." Every time I approached the desk afterward, I was dismissed and told I would "be called shortly." When I was finally taken to the back, I was only seen for a couple of minutes before being moved again for vitals. They hooked me up to the blood pressure machine but never properly checked on me or removed it. At one point, they placed another patient in the same small triage/check area with me. It was barely big enough for one person, let alone two. The other woman was hooked up to her IV port and left there screaming in pain while I was also sitting there in severe pain myself. It was uncomfortable, chaotic, and did not feel like an appropriate space for multiple patients. I was also told they needed another urine test because something was missed in the first one, but no one ever came back to do it. Instead, they returned with discharge paperwork around 12:30 AM. The next day, I saw my doctor and found out the pain I was experiencing was actually due to a severe kidney infection. I'm disappointed not only by the long wait but by the lack of care, communication, and compassion from the staff during a time when I was in serious pain.

The ICU staff (only four ICU beds) was amazing! They gave me updates whenever I called and said to call them anytime, which I appreciated. Herbert and the other ICU nurses are all amazing! Also Ron the dialysis guy! A few days after I arrived, my sister was extubated and was able to move into a regular patient bed. Her team of doctors is outstanding, and there are so many specialists attending to her care. In the past month she was taken off a ventilator, stopped dialysis, been able to talk, is starting to use her hands again and is recovering from a series of serious conditions. Next week she will be transferred to a long-term care facility. This hospital has done an amazing job of treating all of her issues. I would also like to point out that the food in the tiny cafe is very good. You can't get a better lunch for $5. The hospital is continuously being cleaned. The floors are shining. And Greg is THE BEST!

Was brought here by a friend immediately on Friday night and had surgery Saturday morning to get a titanium rod and screws. The nursing staff was excellent, and my surgeon Dr. Shah was super cool and did a phenomenal job. From Friday to Monday, they did everything possible to keep me comfortable. TBH I'm shocked this place only has 3 stars... it's a great hospital with an even better staff. And yes they have a reputation for food and it's actually pretty good, however it's a bit bland for patients, way better as a visitor. Anyways, highly recommend them. Will not return LOL

I am writing to formally document my grievances regarding the life-threatening care I received at…read moreHuntington Hospital during two separate incidents. During my delivery, Dr. Edward Merchant allowed my due date to lapse significantly. On the day of delivery, I was ignored for hours following the departure of the head nurse. Despite my deteriorating condition, Dr. Merchant refused to intervene and went to sleep in the physician's rest area. A code was eventually called when my blood pressure dropped dangerously low. My previous physician, who was on call, had to intervene to perform a crash emergency C-section. Furthermore, Dr. Merchant falsified my medical records by documenting the event as a "normal uneventful delivery." It was an emergency crash C-section as confirmed by the nurses to me the following day. In a subsequent emergency room visit for a severe allergic reaction, I was dismissed by the triage nurse, Maryann Magdaleno, RN, and sent back to a filthy, crowded waiting room for hours. I eventually went home and was called back at 3:00 AM, at which point my blood pressure was 60/0. While my chart indicates I was seen by a Dr. Stinnett, I never saw a physician during that visit. Despite reporting these incidents to the appropriate oversight agencies and the BRN, I have not received a satisfactory resolution. The hospital has continued to stonewall requests for information regarding staffing schedules and this particular nurse on call that night. I am formally expressing my concerns regarding the unethical and unprofessional conduct I recently experienced from Huntington Hospital medical staff. This behavior compromised my safety and fell well below the expected medical standards for their scope of practice. It is essential that the personnel involved are held accountable for these actions to ensure that future patients do not encounter the same lack of care and professionalism. I trust that you will take the necessary steps to address this matter. These experiences were devastating, and I cannot recommend Huntington Hospital to anyone seeking safe or professional medical care.

GREAT LOCATION TO SEE PHYSICIAN…read more============================== Found out my husband's pain management physician practices out of this beautiful new location by Santa Anita Racetrack. Who wouldn't want to go there instead of the main hospital in L.A.? Free and nice parking is a bonus. Easy freeway access is a bonus. Lots of food options nearby is a bonus. Nice waiting rooms is a bonus! It's so new I didn't feel like I was in a germ factory. I had my coffee, ear pods and I watched my Britbox crime series while I waited for my husband. I wish I would have a taken a photo of the view from the 2nd floor waiting area. It was nice. I hate horse racing because I feel like it's abusive to the horses, but you could actually watch races from the waiting rooms in the west building.

I woke up w/my rt leg not able to move w/o excruciating pain, (15/10); I'm very good with pain, so…read moremy husband took me to the e.r., Sadly Keck USC is the closest one. I was on my old crutches when arriving because it helped to keep my weight off the leg & help with movement. The very kind security guard immediately got me a wheelchair. She also helped me gather my registration paperwork so I didn't have to wait in line. The nurse who took my vitals asked why I was there. This is not a common condition, but she said she had to check with her attending who determined it was not an emergency. A simple Google check would have told her that it was life threatening, but she was NOT a good doctor. More on her later. After a couple of hours, they took me back for a blood panel so they could do a CT scan w/contrast completely skipping an ultrasound then an MRI w/contrast. The phlebotomist was good. I told them I was freezing and could I please have a blanket, & I hadn't eaten all day; could I have a sandwich. The doctor, whom I already went over all of my health issues, asked, "What if I got you a full meal instead?" I again had to remind her that I was on the FOD map diet for my IBS and could I just please have the plain sandwich and the blanket. This is now the second or third time asking for these things. She said she'd check on these. She and her attending both examined me, pushed very hard on the painful area. If it had been a clot, it could have broken apart & killed me. I finally got my blanket about 6 hours later. Still no sandwich. The female doctor/attending sucked & said if I was nauseous, I would have to keep the oversalted crackers down, which I did, then I could have a sandwich. I ate one pack, stopped, & was so angry thinking, "Does she think she's my mom?" I know my body & have been through enough things that I know what I best respond to. My husband found someone & told him what the m.d. said and could he please bring me sandwich. He said he would check on it. That was all of their responses. You would have thought that their sandwiches were on lockdown. In the meantime, I was in the main waiting room w/10-15 people vomiting non-stop. Finally, it was my time to go to the CT scan room, which I didn't get because someone was stroking out. Understandable. So I asked if I could have my sandwich while I was waiting because they were giving me strong pain medicine, & I still had to take my own, so I needed something in my stomach to help with the acids. "I'll go check on it." They rolled me into the inner waiting room left me facing the wall because I was apparently their prisoner except for no bread or water. When it was finally time to take me to the CT room, I asked about the Zofran, AGAIN, because I know how nauseous the contrast makes me. OOPS! They forgot to order it, so I had to go back to my prison cell. At least this time, they left me facing my husband who again asked about my sandwich. "I'll go check on it." At least an hour later, they finally got the Zofran and were able to take me to the CT room. Brian, the assistant was very nice and patient. He even offered to replace my blanket with a warmer one. When my husband asked him about my sandwich, he said, "I'll go check on it." The actual technician in the white lab coat was a little too in my face and rushing me. I COULDN'T MOVE MY LEG; I WAS DOING THE BEST I COULD! They rolled me to the main waiting room w/all of the vomiting people. After an hour or two, they came to get me just to put me in back in my prison cell. My husband had to go let our dogs out and feed them & asked again before he left about my sandwich.. "I'll go check on it." I was in the little waiting room at 3:00a.m. by myself & didn't sleep because I didn't trust these people. Meanwhile, the new RN's or MA's, (I couldn't tell which from their lack of professionalism) just kept flirting with the married NP who's ego got bigger with their many questions he answered. They could have researched on their own. I waited until 5:00a.m. because everyone kept ignoring me. Since no M.D. or P.A. was present, just an N.P. who was basically in front of me but never checked on me nor made eye contact w/me in those two hours, I finally asked very loudly "Is anyone going to tell me what's going on with me?" No response. A few minutes later, the N.P. shouted back (HIPPA), "I just now got your test results," (right) "and I'll go over the results, discharge paperwork, and any notes for work," but he just handed them to me. Luckily, I'm have a pre-nursing AA along w/a bunch of certs since I had to read them on my own. He said he would remove my port I reminded them I had because I know they would have left it in. I was already taking it out when he said he could do that. The CT scan was clear. I said, "doesn't explain my symptoms". Him, "Maybe we should run more tests. Which ones?" I asked to be rolled out. I'll go to the pro's to figure this out. Never got my damn sandwich!

She repeatedly failed to complete the paperwork needed for appointments, and we had to call multiple times just to get appointments scheduled. If you don't keep calling and following up, nothing happens. Save yourself the headache and ask for someone else. This was not a one-time occurrence. It happened twice, both involving major, serious appointments that took over a month to get scheduled. The delay was not because of the scheduling department, it was because she did not complete the required paperwork so they could schedule the appointments. Maybe if everything had been handled in a timely manner, the outcome would have been different. I'll never know. Save yourself the questioning, the headaches, and the heartbreak.
