NEVER in my life have I been treated so poorly by so-called health professionals. 6 hours in the waiting room. I vomited multiple times as did other patients. A woman with a broken leg sat there untreated for 4 hours. Patients had their IV bags RUN DRY in the WAITING ROOM and could NOT get anyone to even take the IV out. A man who had been sent by his doctor to be admitted because a CT scan had found a tumor in his brain the size of a "ping pong ball" was forced to sit in the waiting room for 4 hours before being told to go to a different hospital. After 6 hours, I was finally taken to a room and told they had ordered medicine for me hours ago (which I never got) and that they were going to prescribe antibiotics and send me home and I should go see my primary doctor tomorrow. I explained I had been on antibiotics TWICE in the last three months with no improvement. The PA (notice, not a DOCTOR) said not her problem. I explained I was 4 hours away from my doctor. The PA said not her problem. I explained I was vomiting and in excruciating pain and losing vision in my left eye. The PA said not her problem. They held me hostage for SIX HOURS then gave me a script for antibiotics (which I had already been on with no improvement), Benadryl and Claritin. I could have treated myself at Walgreens and not had my dignity spit on. Do not EVER go there. If you live long enough to leave the waiting room, they won't do a damn thing to help you anyway.
