I had enormous pain on left lower abdomen so I went 1st to family doctor at Washington warm springs township on Mohave Drive after Dr.Collins exam me he determined it was best to go to Washington Emergency 2000 Mowry Ave Dr informed me he would call ahead giving ER staff & Doctors detailed information on exactly why I was going and what exactly needs to be done Stat! (CT SCAN) at least that's my understanding was! I informed Dr.Collins in some detail my extremely hesitancy going to ER because I have had some really bad experiences and also believe ER should be reserved for obvious Emergencies (bone sticking out or blood everywhere) I don't really believe ER helps it s patients and cost is more than I could afford! But, Dr.Collins was pretty persistent and thought something serious was going on with me that needed ER Attention! So I went. This experience was WAY WORSE!! I checked in was called right away just to take vitals explain why I was there for 3rd time ER was not even busy (only 5 people in ER waiting room) then waited over 1 1/2 hrs to get another call just to take blood that s when I questioned WHY ?? when my doctor sent me here just for CT scan ! I called my doctor on the spot to see what was going on and he explained they have their own procedures . REALLY ??? Excessive billing practices if you ask me after all why do i need Lipid panel to check Cholesterol and other non essential blood test? (in my opinion to rack up ER expenses) for CT Scan and Abdomin pain? after that I was taken to room where I was greeted by extremely RUDE Nurse (RN) asked again why I was there Don't these people communicate? I must have been asked dozen times before I left) that RN also had a very bad attitude!! Teased!! me about my bag for meds and other high essentials demanded I get undressed put on gown as he rudely explained multiple times and then painfully stuck needle in me (not in vain) HURT A LOT ! Should sue them! I have big ballon arm! I waited well over 2 hrs! to get called for CT scan just to find out they couldn t use needle to inject solution in vain because it s NOT IN VAIN IT made my skin balloon! That RN was idiot ! So I had to go back to room where I waited more for another nurse just for her to tell me it will be about 45 minutes for CT SCAN I NEVER HAD results! AGAIN NO COMMUNICATION! I said , I never had CT scan and She just gave me a blank look at that point I'm ready to go home (its so late I'm going hit all that tracy commute traffic which will take 2 hrs to get home) Kids to pick up from school and no help! I tried to explain what happened but she had attitude! NO Compassion or understanding ! She went to get doctor and tried to blame me for their negligence. after Finally they redid needle in arm I waited more time for CT scan! They finally after 1 hr took CT scan completed waited another hr for results and FINALLY AFTER 7 + hrs in ER that was NOT busy I left still in PAIN with 2 prescription, 1 antibiotic and 1 pain medication which all could have been done without going to ER took prescription to rite aid in Tracy where I live because for some reason they couldn't save me time by calling meds into Pharmacy but, NOW I had to drive 2 hrs in pain Tracy Rite-aid and then finally home many painful hours later! Washington ER are rude , unprofessional, NO COMPASSION and Teased me which is form of bulling, Did a lot of unnecessary test so they could charge Me more! If I could avoid going to ER at Washington I will ! FYI , I have been to several ER in past especially when doctor calls ahead and have NEVER spent 7 plus hrs in ER maybe 2-3 hrs MAX! The worst Experience ever! Worse than Kaiser which I didn't think was possible!
