Went in for my wife who was vomiting, unable to keep food and liquids down, upper abdominal pain, back pain, nausea, and some dizziness. Waited for 5 hours in waiting room while only receiving EKG when first checked in. We where very patient since we noticed they were busy. After she vomited several times during these 5 hours while waiting I asked when we were next and nurse said there is more important people with bigger problems who came in after who need to be seen. We left after that comment because we obviously didn't appreciate the horrible customer service health care professionals should be held to standard. Went to a different local hospital who quickly determined emergency gulbladder surgery needed because one it was packed with gulstones and two she had one trapped in tubes which was causing infection and increasing liver enzymes in labs. I get the ER sees some serious things and some minor stuff that shouldn't be coming to ER for but until you know don't treat your possible patients like they are nusisence until you can determine what's really wrong with them.
