My only regret is that I wish I had written this review earlier. I thought my experience was few and far between but after speaking with others (and after my experience at other AnMed facilities), I realize this is an issue. I was seen about three years ago for uncontrollably throwing up. I have never in my life been so sick. I threw up for over 5 hours that evening, despite being given medications while going through triage. The most frustrating part is that every single hospital staff I came in contact with, from the front desk to the PA that finally came to our room-all asked if I was pregnant and persisted with that question and told me I needed to take a blood test even after I was adamant that I was not pregnant. They wrote me off as being pregnant, and then when they finally did the test and realized I wasn't pregnant, they told me it was something I ate. I've had food poisoning, and that was not food poisoning. Plus the other people I had eaten with earlier that day never got sick. Three years later and we definitely know that I was not pregnant. It's frustrating as a woman to not have people believe you and listen to you when you are really sick. It was a scary situation for me because I could not stop myself from throwing up, and no one seemed to care. Even after I had an IV of meds and fluids, I was stilling throwing up powerade before leaving there with ZERO explanation of what was wrong with me. Two days later I ran a high fever and had to go to the urgent care across the street. They were more helpful and understanding and gave me an anti-biotic. Don't go anywhere near any AnMed Facility if you value your health. Make the drive to Greenville.
