I've had several bad experiences at the Providence ER. The last time was especially bad. I had…read moreaccidentally taken the wrong amount of my medication and immediately went to the ER to seek help. Instead of calling poison control, I was rushed to the ICU where nurses spent all their efforts into convincing me that I had tried to harm myself. During this, I had four seizures before they decided to call Poison control to receive treatment instructions. Four seizures could have been prevented if they had called poison control immediately. I bit my tongue several times and bled profusely. They told me that my tongue will heal quickly, and refused to also treat that wound. It has not healed in almost a month. I had to see my primary care provider elsewhere to receive help. I felt neglected, as if they didn't really care. They weren't trying to treat me, but shove me in their mental health unit, when I had not tried to hurt myself. Their judgement of my character and actions was unwarranted and their actions felt harsh and punitive in nature. Eventually they called poison control and administered medication that would have effectively prevented this whole ordeal. I will never go back. All of the other hospitals in Portland are far better options with far better care that doesn't lack compassion and judgement by a very near sighted and uncaring staff. I am trying to not take this personal, and ruminate, but it was traumatic and embarrassing, and has led me to seek help in dealing with it. Thanks for reading and I hope you find this helpful in making decisions on where to seek care in an emergency.

There were a surprisingly high number of patients waiting to be seen but we got in. Lindsey did the first set of X-rays and I was so impressed with the care and communication she gave the both of us the whole time. We even got a sticker of her cat miss Norris and we were told they are a hot commodity. I believe it. I hate that I didn't completely catch our nurses name working with doctor Washington- Kayla, Kaylee, Caitlin?! I'm so sorry!!! But she was so great throughout the whole night with my daughter and even gave her a brown bear at the end with a splint and cast on the same arm my daughter left with one. Ded. Dr Washington you were also very kind and thank you for doing your best to put the broken bones into place. We had a long visit but the care was superb so 5 stars to the whole staff. So so impressed and made the emergency visit less painful. Also note to the world- monkey bars are horrible and I shake both my fists at them.

The frequency with which I'm having to review hospitals is not exactly ideal, but...here we go…read moreagain. My wife had a diabetes-related incident which required two days worth of hospitalization, so we were treated to a wide variety of Legacy Emanuel's departments, from intake at the ER, to the ICU, to the pharmacy and, of course, the much-maligned, dreaded hospital food (and rightfully so)! Our experience was a mixed bag, but mostly positive overall. Intake took longer than I feel is acceptable for, you know...the EMERGENCY room, but the quality of care, right out of the gate, was top notch: competent, friendly nurses and technicians (BIG shout-out to Michael in the CVICU for being stellar!), from start to finish. Consultation with full-fledged doctors was few and far between, but maybe that will help keep the costs down when the remainder of the bill comes back from insurance. The Children's Garden is a-freakin'-dorable. The food was one of the few things that was consistent...consistently terrible. As has always been the case with diabetes-related care, the advice my wife receives seems to vary, based on the person giving it, with some providers seeming more confident, and competent, than others...which is probably why we end up in situations like this. Without going into too many details, one endocrinologist recommended using an insulin pump, the other recommended manual injections via insulin pens, and both of them offered different suggestions on the amount of insulin to administer, based on carb count. It's incredible to me that this isn't yet a settled science. Another irritating thing I encountered was the main entrance to the atrium being blocked off for construction or renovations, meaning that to pick up a prescription, we had to enter through the Randall Children's Hospital entrance, and then navigate an absurdly long series of hallways to get there...only to find that our prescription wasn't filled on time, and that we'd have to come back and do it all over again later. Ugh. In short, we've had better care (OHSU), and worse care (PeaceHealth), but Legacy Emanuel does enough things right to straddle the gap, and exist in our minds as a wholly acceptable and comprehensive health care provider, even during times of crisis (and as an important side note: the adjacent Randall Children's Hospital is a five star facility, no bones about it). Just...hurry up with the ER intake procedure, will ya?

There is a long lead for the first meeting. The physical therapist said that I should get added for my knees. Not just my back. Because of the way this company is set up, I had to start all over again. It is now March. They just called me and canceled my appointment because my physical therapist took a week off. I ended up getting pushed out to April. I have to start all over again with a new provider because the provider I was with is not available because he's backed up because he took a week off. It really sucks to be an OHSU physical therapy client. I'm starting to look elsewhere. They're terrible to deal with.

I've forgotten so many names, but I want to mention that the young man who put in my second IV line (the first was at a clinic) did it painlessly. Also, the professional who did my echocardiogram was excellent, and the staff member who took my food orders was so considerate and helpful. Everyone was so welcoming and respectful to me, my same-sex spouse, and my sister. Their care and treatment were exemplary. I was able to be discharged after only one night in the CICU.

Worst hospital system and insurance company in Portland (and all states with Kaiser's HMO) by far…read more I have been here many times in pain and most recently to see a PCP for a mole check because they refused to provide a referral to dermatology. For pain they never find anything wrong and told me I can leave. I had to demand an imaging referral and once again they found nothing wrong. Just continue being in pain for several was their solution, take ibuprofen. The PCP told me I was fine after requesting a skin cancer exam. When I finally had decent insurance a few months later with a non-Kaiser PPO plan, I went to a dermatologist where 4 sites tested positive with a biopsy and needed to be surgically removed. Kaiser would never have followed up with any tests. Do not use this hospital system. They charge high monthly rates then save money by reducing your services. You will not receive good healthcare at Kaiser.
