Do NOT go to this hospital. I went in for pain in my side, worst pain I ve ever been in. They made me wait 10 HOURS in the waiting room with only 1 update of what was going on. They refused to give me any pain medication except for Tylenol. They did x-rays, blood work, urine sample, and a CT scan. Came back and told me absolutely nothing was wrong with my body. I specifically asked if each organ was okay and they said everything was in perfect health and told me it was probably PERIOD CRAMPS. After crying in front of the nurse they agreed to prescribe me a pain pill and discharged me in a rush. I looked at the prescription later and it was NOT for a pain pill it was for a supplement I told them I take for my skin!!! I checked my online results the next day and the results literally said I had MULTIPLE GALLSTONES and possible cystitis on my bladder. They did not tell me any of this. And since they messed up the prescription I had to pass the rest of the stones without anything. I tried to get the bill dropped by risk management and they denied the request, saying they handled everything properly. Now I have to go spend more money at a gastroenterologist just to get PROPER treatment. Every single person except the woman who took my blood, was insanely rude to me and treated me like a drug seeker. How can you know that your patient is in there for good reason and you look me in my eyes and tell me it s period cramps?? Now I am stuck with a huge bill that I don t have money for. I will tell every person I know that this hospital does not care about it s patients and their health.
