I was a Trauma nurse coast to coast for over 12 years at multiple sites. I want to thank the ER staff for their high level of professionalism and great care.

Holly, Elisha, Cory, the registar, x ray tech ( sorry guys i forgot your names or missed them) and Scott were at their best. Even when I refused a test, due to questionable insurance, they made it their duty to try to persuade me to have the test done. Of course, they were ABSOLUTELY RIGHT to try and convince me to have it done. I would have done the same.

An extra special thank you to Cory for really doing an outstanding duty as an RN to be a patient advocate even when the patient is not right. Thanks buddy. Real stand out in patient care and really trying to get that x ray done.

Holly, you did and amazing job with the wound care and irrigation.

Elisha, great local. Really done well with minimal pain.

Scott, I know it's never easy when a patient refuses a treatment or a test, but thank you for respecting my decision. Takes an extra element of professionalism in your part.

Overall, good experience in a bad situation. They were quick and Profesional. I hadn't experienced that quick and professional treatment ever. Only reason for a 4 stars, there is always room for improvement. TV didn't work in the room....(ha ha Corey) and I wasn't pleased with the lack of treatment for future foreseeable pain and yes it cost me another doctors appointment which cost me a lot more. All though I understand with current policies.
