STEPHEN KING HOSPITAL --- I only wish it were an exaggeration. I really, sincerely, in my heart believe that the people who choose to work here are the kind of sociopaths that enjoy watching others suffer. They derive an almost sexual pleasure from the suffering of others. I am a local and have been all my 38 years of life. I had a difficult birth and was born in Paris , TN - had i been in this hospital i may never have been born, I have seen friends, relatives and acquaintances butchered and killed due to their lack of compassion, empathy and anything resembling competency. The "doctors" are old, red nosed (burst capilaries from drinking) burn outs who do not speak to you personally and turn on one heel after entering the room as obligated. A fresh young trauma surgeon may save your life if you are bleeding to death from an auto accident i will give them that,. however that caliber of person won't stick around long once he sees how this place really works.
We locally call it "Hate-way" or "Gateway to the Other Side", "Gateway to Eternity". It wasn't ideal in the 80's or early 90's when it was Memorial hospital but as of now I wouldn't take a hamster to be treated here. Never have i been so mis-treated and that's to say nothing of my family and friends who have been unfortunate enough to be there. My mother was discharged with a leg broken in three places, no wheel chair, cane , walker or orderly to help me get her into the car. No medicine for her excruciating pain as obviously a fractured leg must mean drug seeking behavior .All of this info is documented and is currently with our attorney, which you may consider retaining one before you even walk in the doors here. I had a white cell count through the roof and was ignored , treated like a "drug seeker" for my excruciating stomach pain which could have been a rupturing appendix. After 3 days i went home and treated myself. I started with antibiotics that did not come from gateway,because they never tried any despite my insanely high white count. Then a diet of plain yogurt ,broth and water for two weeks. Went back when i had "healed thyself", got my records and the Ct they took when i first walked in the door? showed a severely distended gallbladder, This was never mentioned to me- during the entire 3 days but you can bet financial was in my room trying to talk to me while i was wailing in agony. Drug-seeker or Psych patient is how they treat ANYONE in pain regardless of whether their arm is partially attached or they have an exploding gallbladder. Probably so the staff can steal the drugs and sell them or do them themselves. Just read about the recent event where a beautiful 27 year old girl died in the waiting room surrounded by strangers who showed her 100x more compassion than the staff. If you do not have compassion and empathy or enough education to even know the meaning of those words - do us ALL a favor and go flip burgers or work at Ikea or home depot or quick-lube. Please do ANYTHING that does not relate to saving peoples LIVES or working with living beings. Thank you for nothing.
