Horrible! I was rushed to the ER then admitted overnight to Eskenazie when it was newly opened. I had severe diarrhea and pain and quite a number of other symptoms after returning home from a trip. They treated me with antibiotics and the terrible symptoms subsided. They came into my room as if I were a lab rat and had every med student and doctor and nurse and janitor look at me. I got absolutely no rest at the hospital. Since all these rocket scientists could not identify the bacteria they assumed it was a viral infection, took me off the antibiotics, and released me without a prescription. They told me to follow up with one of their doctors in a few weeks. In the meantime my shooting diarrhea and other symptoms returned immediately without the antibiotics. When I saw their idiot doctor for follow up, he told me to return in 3-mos and still did not give me antibiotics. I asked him if he was aware that people die of dysentery and never went to see any doctors at Eskenazie again. I got an $11k bill in the mail from them, too, that was not covered by my health insurance. Since that day I have been getting more and more ill despite all of my attempts to get treatment. I had to stop working last year and sell my house to support myself. Many days I am bed bound. I just found out that I have post infectious myalgic encephalomyelitis and had the dummies at Eskenazie known what they were doing I would not be where I am today. They ruined my health and my life.
