I'd give this hellhole a zero if the option was there. Most unprofessional, uncompliant, and immoral group of medical staff I've ever met. All this place wants is the bucks. It all dates back to my hospitalization back in May which I was very fed up with the useless methods only creating more issues for me. As I said to male nurse or whatever this guy was that I was going to leave due to the annoyance despite it being against doctor advice, which was bs anyway as I figured out the issue myself even though I was hospitalized pointlessly, one male staff member claimed I'd be charged the bill rather than my insurance. Which was one of the grimiest lies I'd ever heard as my insurance covers anything and I was unaware of such a term at the time. And it doesn't end with this. Two weeks ago I was nearly hospitalized again from mold irritation causing lung inflammation. While the staff had seemed to improved some, their methods have seemingly not. I was prescribed prednisone, albuterol treatments, and advair HFA 230/21. Using that advair caused chest pain, tremors, aches and increased heart rate. I thought I was on verge of a heart attack. All I have to say now is that I'm done with this place. I find my asthma and other breathing issues to be worse when affiliating with this place. I recommend never, ever coming to this place to anyone reading.
