That was when it ended, I was shooed off to the waiting room around 2:30 AM, and as of 5:00 AM I am STILL sitting here with a mini fluid vial in my arm with no sign of a doctor or nurse to see me. I'm angry, exhausted, hungry, and just want to go home. This place is awful and possibly the worst hospital in the world, they don't care about you, just want to get your money and leave you to rot in the waiting room.

I was treated like a dog, and lesser than the staff- especially by the security guard Lucas (Fabio). They did not even allow me to call my federal agent I spent 5 days being lied to and neglected without sunlight. Mentioned security guard was anything but trauma informed and should not be working in that unit let alone that hospital. I came in for safety and left more suicidal that I came in with. People started calling missing persons reports on me until the Deputy of Beverly PD & Beth Israel's PD came to make sure I was still alive as they wouldn't let me call my agents. How I was treated was inhumane and I left with a boxer fracture. Even the representative from Beth Israel told me "if you ever need to go to the hospital go to Salem". *mic drop*

I took my mother here twenty minutes after she'd experienced two seizures. We sat for seven and a…read morehalf hours with no treatment, surrounded by varying levels of pissed off patients. There were no ED rooms or even hall beds, so my mom got her vitals taken, an IV put in to draw blood, and then sent back to the waiting room for the duration. Same deal with all the other patients. The big TV was on the Discovery Channel equivalent of COPS the entire time so the room was stuck with a 50 inch TV with a bunch of aggressive cops and prison guards yelling at people and chasing down and tackling people on body cam footage - not exactly soothing or good for a room of people who essentially couldn't leave. The ED tech did her absolute best to manage expectations, but we never saw a doctor. We saw a PA 2am who basically agreed that the instructions we got from the on-call neurologist six hours earlier were .... fine. If we wanted to wait and get a CT scan, it would be easily another 4 hours. So we gave up and went home, untreated. Their Press Gainey score in the email request for review the hospital sent was conveniently worded so that there was no way to say "wanted to be seen by a doctor and never saw one."

I was told that it "was probably just gas and should change my diet." These people were making a snap judgment based on the fact that I am overweight, failing to see that I have been on GLP-1s for months and have significantly changed my diet already. I feel like I was being discriminated against as they did not do any sort of testing to find out if it could be anything besides gas. I'm not sure how you can know for sure that there are no other possibilities in the span of 5 minutes. I don't know why I just paid $40 to get insulted, will never be returning!

I trusted Dr. Lobo to repair my broken heel after she assured me I would regain about 90% of my…read morefoot function and return to a normal life. The reality was devastating. After surgery, my foot was left crooked and I developed a large open wound that was never explained to me. She put a cast over it without telling me anything. When I returned to have the cast changed and finally saw the wound, I almost fainted. No one had warned me about it, and at one point it was close to becoming necrotic. I had to stay in bed for two months because of severe swelling and fluid. Instead of receiving support, I was treated as if I was being dramatic while I was clearly in extreme pain and dealing with serious complications. I later learned that a screw had been placed directly through the middle of my joint, and I ultimately needed another surgery to try to correct the damage. To this day I am still suffering the consequences. I have difficulty walking and constant pain that now affects my legs and back. This surgery took away the active life I once had. Based on my experience, I do not recommend Dr. Lobo at all.

The check in said they would send a note to the lab staff of what I was wearing and my level of deafness. They come out quickly wearing masks, call names which I can't tell the names called. As I try to get their attention, they quicky turn , walk away. I do everything to help myself, I sit near the door facing them, I read lips( impossible with masks). After long wait time seeing others that came after me go in, I twice was able to finally get one's attention, and find that yes my name had been called earlier. I go again today for tests, just don't know what to do.
