Some of the staff are excellent. One time I went to the ER because I was in pain and hadn't slept more than 8 hours the last few days. The doctor insinuated I was making it up. They neglected to tell my the insurance I provided was expired. Then I was here after a car accident. Again, some of the nurses made my time there much better. Other times I was ignored. On my last day I needed an xray before I left, I was left outside of radiology in a wheelchair. I saw the person tasked with transporting me sitting on his phone. When he saw that I was looking at him he moved out of my view. Eventually, since my legs were fine, I decided to just go back to my room. A passing security guard wouldn't let me. Delayed me actually leaving the hospital by about 2 hours.
