Alexandra Review of Banner Good Samaritan
Absolutely awful emergency room service. I went to...
Absolutely awful emergency room service. I went to the Banner urgent care because I was having severe stomach problems and they refunded me and told me to go to the Banner University emergency room asap and that they would call ahead to know I was coming.
I'm admitted to the Banner university emergency room and they do testing like my blood and urine and for some reason a xray of my chest which I told them would be unnecessary because I have no pain in my chest area but they were very insistent on me having it anyway.
After waiting over 3 hours after my testing they told me that I could be released without giving me any diagnosis. I asked if they knew what was wrong and they said that they didn't know what was the cause of my pain and to schedule an appointment with my primary doctor as soon as possible, and they also said that it would have been best for me to go to an urgent care instead even though I went to the Banner Urgent care first and THEY TOLD ME to go to the Banner ER.
Immediately after they charged me a $150 co pay fee with I was unhappy about but paid anyway.
A few weeks later in the mail I recieve a bill in the mail for $4,000 in medical bills from that day at the ER. Including $600 for the xrays that the stupid nurse said I needed even though I told her before hand would be unnecessary.
Needless to say I am beyond disgusted by this whole ordeal. These people are a bunch of crooks.
