Honestly, the staff works hard and so does the doctors. These reviews drive me crazy. The Emergency room is for emergencies . Half of the people who come in are there for minor things that can be treated by over-the-counter meds. The wait is longer because they have to actually treat and admit sick people, trauma patients, and then determine the symptoms of the people who have lied about having chest pains just to get seen quicker and get work excuses. The public should be more aware of their health and seek the proper care with primary care doctors and urgent care facilities. The staff is not the issue some people expect the unexpected. You will always have to wait because emergent cases will always go first. ERs having staffing issues, call-outs, and limited doctors to treat "all" the sick people of Valdosta. Taking it out on the staff does not make it any better ..and telling people they should shut down the only emergency room in Valdosta is Stupid!!!!!
