    The doctors are amazing here and the front desk staff is disappointing and unprofessional.

    Yesterday I went back to the same ER, and luckily that saved a lot of paperwork at registration…read more The first step was registration, which was done quickly cuz of my last visit in March this year. After registration, Joyce helped me with my vitals and explained the test procedure. I didn't wait too long, and Dr. Elizabeth took care of the paperwork and sent me to the room. Dennis took care of the EKG, and another nurse did the bloodwork. Finally, a CT Scan was done by Tiffany. All steps were accomplished smoothly, and everyone was very kind and responsible. This is a Methodist ER open 24 hours with plenty of parking. Thank you to everyone who works there Really nice staff and doctors. When we went, it was not crowded. This place is clean and next to Chick-fil-A :)

    I went to the Houston Methodist Emergency Care Clinic on Thanksgiving due to severe back and leg…read morepain that left me barely able to stand or walk. I expected compassion and basic medical care, but instead I left feeling humiliated, ignored, and unsafe. Although the doctor briefly spoke with me, no physical exam of any kind was performed. When I asked for assistance to the restroom because I was struggling to walk, one of the nurses simply pointed down the hall and didn't accompany me. I nearly collapsed while trying to get back out of the bathroom and was screaming in pain, yet that same nurse rolled her eyes and walked over slowly before finally helping me into a wheelchair. It was clear she did not care and found me to be an inconvenience. Another nurse, Sonny, was also incredibly rude and lacked compassion entirely. She seemed annoyed by my questions and at one point even said, "Well what do you want me to do about it?" I understand it was a holiday and the staff may not have wanted to be there -- but I certainly didn't want to be there either. I was in a medical crisis and deserved to be treated with basic empathy, not dismissal. The only person who provided quality care was a nurse named Mohammad, who was kind, attentive, and treated me like a human being. I am genuinely grateful for him. Unfortunately, the actions of the rest of the staff overshadowed everything else. I felt vulnerable, helpless, and disbelieved throughout the experience. This clinic made me feel like my pain didn't matter and like I was a burden for needing help. I would not recommend this clinic to anyone, and I believe this location is a disgrace to the Houston Methodist brand. No patient should ever be treated the way I was treated.

    The quality of care, respect, and compassion, for us was…read more immeasurable. The time taken to explain the illness, treatment protocol, medication dosing, need for return if symptoms worsen in both verbal and written method assured we had complete understanding how to care for ourselves on discharge. The quick response placing my daughter in a room from the lobby, exam, and lab tests was impressive. This group of professionals from registration, to MD, NP, RN, and lab could give a seminar on how to provide excellence in care to Free Standing and hospital based ER's. Its the standard others should strive for none less. After they got testing back with her permission they told us we were at risk, due to the type infection and our exposure to her sickness. We were tested and prescribed prophylaxis as recommended by CDC which checked the box for standards of care as well. Healthcare treatment is a choice and as an Registered Nurse myself working over 40 plus years in critical care and ED sometimes your experience is far less than desired or standards of care. Today as a family we were lucky to choose Rice Emergency Room. We are from out of town just blindly walked in but if I lived in Houston Rice ED would be my first choice for care. My decision would not only be from a patient's perspective but as a Healthcare professional. I did not disclose I was a nurse there was no need to. Thank each of you Rice ED staff .

    After suffering an unfortunate fall I had to visit a Doctor immediately. Rice ER came up in my…read moreGoogle search right away. Checking in at the front desk was easy and the Receptionist assisted me so patiently with all I needed to present to her, transparent with cost, and related to what I was going through - letting me know that all would be ok (because she went through something similar). I was seen right away and everyone was so kind and considerate of my injury. The Doctor was very pleasant and provided me with the utmost in care and recommendations. I've never suffered any bone breaks before and I'm grateful to this team for keeping me calm and hopeful. Thank you Rice ER for everything!

    This is a state-of-the-art facility rated number one in Texas. Yes, it's huge, and yes, the…read moremedical center is very crowded and parking can be difficult. But when people really need the best care, they come to Houston from everywhere in the world. I was diagnosed with lung cancer and had a robotic assisted surgery which took half of my left lung and I was alert conscious and feeling good just a few hours after the 5-hour procedure. because Dr. Kim used robots so the incisions were small, and my recovery was quick. I was sent home the next day. One day stay for major surgery! The timeliness of care was excellent. it was 2 weeks from referral to meet with the surgeon and two additional weeks to schedule the procedure, so I was essentially cured of my cancer within one month. this compares very favorably to the other cancer hospital next foor, which has a waiting list. to summarize, I had a great surgeon, a state-of-the-art operating room, competent nurses and everyone had a good attitude. really couldn't be better.

    I believe that Houston Methodist is a state of art facility. As the family member of the patient, I…read morewas impressed with how well they treated us as well. The medical center is huge and often difficult to navigate but if you need the best care this is a facility you can feel confident will take care of you. Staff was attentive and made you feel like you mattered. Having a pt in other hospitals I promise this facility far outranks its competitors. My husband had major surgery and was cared for and discharged timely back to home. I appreciate everyone from the doctors to the security guards that helped me find my way to a hotel directly across the street. As a health care professional it is obvious that they care about their staff and it shows on their faces.

This person mistreated me doing a CT Scan that watched me struggle to get on the table for minutes after being reminded of the blood clots in both of my legs and my inability to move. She then flopped me on the table violently. Wailing in pain she kept telling me to stop crying as I complained and cried to her while being in pain that the solution they use when accessing the port was spraying me in the face, neck, and body. I had a panic attack and could not breathe and she would not stop to check on my well being. I have pictures of the solution all over my neck, chin, arm. I'm utterly hurt by the mistreatment and neglect that your staff member has given me. Out of the 20+ plus scans, MRIs, etc. I have never been traumatized the way your radiologist has treated me, ever! I demand to be contacted immediately because this is not right for patients to be treated like trash when we are in pain and already beaten down by life.
