NOW, I would absolutely hate to be someone walking into the ER with ANY issue (I've always ended up going by ambulance rig for ER visits) that should have prompt attention. Tonight I witnessed first hand how an ER can be run so piss poorly, that I would choose to drive 30 miles to a podunk hospital than ho to Trinity Rock Island as a walk in patient. A 40 year old male presenting with left side abdominal pains just below the ribcage, low grade fever, dizziness, nausea, fatigue, panic attacks, loss of appetite, vomiting blood, chest tightness, b/p of 158/98 at 180 lbs pulse of 100bpm, and fainting spells sits for 30 minutes when there are only 4 others waiting and an empty parking lot showing that there is no way that in an ER with atleast 20 bed could be full. The receptionist, who is lucky I missed her name tag or I'd call and raise hell tomorrow with their HR, was rude as hell. When taken in for triage to find out the chief complaints of the patient (I went in as a witness), patient was handed a specimen cup and told that if he was able to fill it once he was sent BACK to the waiting room, that would help speed up his waiting time, he filled it after another 10 minutes in the waiting room and passed it to the desk woman. After another 45 minutes he was called back for blood draws. Sent back out to wait again, and an hour later he decided to go to a smaller hospital half an hour away the following day, and just be in pain that night. He was wrong for leaving, but when you feel like absolute crap, you're in pain, haven't been able to eat, or sleep well, for 2-3 months, explain it to someone and get nothing in return, your anger can take over and you do counterproductive things. I'd rather be beaten half to death with a bag full of rocks than have to walk into that ER. Ambulance rides rule there.

I got my nurse right away and she took me to a private room, did some vitals and asked why I was there. She really listened to what I said. I then waited for the doctor to come in. Although it took an hour and a half for him to show, the nurse checked on my a couple time making sure I was okay. Doctor really listened to my needs and talked me through the next steps I would need to take in the morning. Overall a great experience (for an ER trip)! I wish I would have started here rather than the university ER!

You'll die of old age waiting for anyone to help you. Sure, they can put you in a room, there's plenty of empty tiny little rooms they can leave you in for all day and night while they ignore you and ignore your winces of pain. This the last time I go to any ER in Cedar Rapids, Iowa unless I'm unconscious or dead. At both hospitals they are very snotty and disrespectful. I don't know what happened to this place but I won't be caught alive in there ever again.

I wasn't happy with my first visits to this location. I had a screening scheduled and it was the…read moreworst experience I've ever had with such a simple screening; the NP "seemed" friendly at first but was just awful with patient handling, very rough and treating me as if I were a sack of potatoes! I was also here for another important test and the medical provider (a resident) seemed aloof and disinterested. There was minimal communication through MyChart, just barely enough and in technical (not patient friendly) language. One nurse was kind (hence the two stars), but it wasn't enough and I'd say most of the people I've encountered here, including the security guards at the entrances, were unpleasant. I definitely would not recommend this hospital unless you know or have a recommended physician or unless absolutely necessary. Even though it seems like a huge system with much invested into it, the patient focus and caring (at least from what my family and I experienced) were not there. The bills I received from urgent care for myself and family members also seemed excessive, more or comparative to other systems with much better quality (at diagnosis, speed, and patient care).
