I recently visited Condell hospital ER for severe chest pain/pressure. I was unable to breath , could barely stand and was told I had all the symptoms of a stroke/heart attack etc. As I walked up to the building my chest pain quickly spread to my left arm and it went numb and heavy I could not lift it. I was nearly falling while the assistant at the ER check in window ignored me to take a personal call.
When I entered into the ER they found that it was not only my arm that I had no feeling on my entire left side. They ignored the obvious serious signs stating, I am young. Though they ruled out Everything else.
Dr. Collen and Yolanda, and nurse Amanda sent me for test stating they wanted to ensure they were covered (I would later realize what she meant) the techs who administered the test informed me "they were not taking my condition serious because I was young and it is sad". I was shocked they seemed nice, this tech cared more than the doctors.
I was very kind to them and they were Seemingly kind as well, until I later overheard the Horrible jokes they were making of me and other patients at the nursing desk.

They made jokes of a man in room 6 stating he had bed bugs.
A 16yr old girl with abdominal pain, stating " I bet she's pregnant" and placing bets. Later to come back and celebrate that they were right.

Fighting over who would take the patient with the chest pain and who would take the patient with the swollen legs. Complaining that the patient with the swollen legs would be more work stating "did you smell him" "I don't want to touch him."

They laughed about an elderly lady who had been brought in after "falling on her butt and now had no feeling from the waist down". etc.
They made a mockery of me as well.
It went on non stop the 9+ hrs I was there I didn't say a word, the entire nursing staff took part at the expense of helpless patients. Until they realized I overhead disgusting , disturbing and horrible things they were saying.
It is sad that wrong doing such as these go unheard because they are covered up and people lie for each other to protect their paychecks while helpless honest people suffer.
