I m so angry as I type this review. If i could do negative stars I would. After being in the healthcare field for over 10 years it s very easy to recognize when someone is not receiving the care that he or she deserves. This is by far the worst place I ve ever encountered. The care is not that of a trauma center. My cousin who was in a ATV accident was air lifted there within minutes of the accident. The ED doctor refuse to do any surgical procedures to reduce the swelling in his head, knowing that if they didn t the damage would worsen. 48 hours into being in ICU, seeing that the medications and less invasive medical interventions won t working they did nothing else but pump him with pain medicines that sedated him even more. There s so many pieces to this puzzle. The neurosurgeons at this place failed my cousin! The failed his kids by not giving him a fair chance to live & watch them grow up! They failed his mother who now has to bury her son! They sat around and waited until the tissue in his brain completely died from the swelling! Don t take your loved ones here! Yea there are some good reviews and we trusted the good ones when the not so good ones really told the true experience! He s now gone and next week his mother has to bury her only son! I won t let this rest! I will reach out to whomever to report the prolonged delays and refusal to provide definitive care. MCLeod Regional Hospital, we as a family will fight until we can t fight anymore!
