The RNs and intake staff are on the ball. They do thier best to get you checked in and seen by a RN in back as quick as poss. They also try and get you to see a Dr. quickly as well. That's where the positive ends. You see the Dr. once, and then trying to see her/him again, let alone TALK to them is virtually impossible! We showed up at 820a Thurs. He was checked in, had seen a RN & a Dr by 930, even though the waiting rm was busy. He was sent for xrays which only took 10min. He was informed that there were some abnormalities on his xrays and that he was going to have to speak with a surgeon. He was put in the hallway with his foot draining on the floor and swelling more and more by the min. They gave him nothing to stem the oozing or to cover his open wound! Around 330PM the surgeons FINALLY showed up to look at the xrays and discuss surgery w him. They told the RN to put him in the 1st available rm. 20min later, he was in a rm. 630p he went back for emergency surgery. Now, on the plus side, they did give him pain medication right away without him even having to ask for it.
