Let me begin by saying that I live within 1.6 miles of this place and after last night, I don't care if I'm having a heart attack, I would rather risk my life and travel the extra distance to go to another hospital than to ever come here again. I got to the ER around 1230am and left around 515am. I spent almost five hours in the ER, in very severe pain mind you, and the furthest I got was the chair at the front desk where they take your information. While sitting there in very intense pain, I witnessed a mother who was experiencing what she felt were miscarriage symptoms sit and wait for three hours before her and family got up and left. I also witnessed a lady who stated that she just had a seizure about an hour before she came to the ER sit and wait three and a half hours before she finally decided to leave. I'm not sure the guidelines of how they set their severity levels of seeing a patient but this certainly needs to change. You would think for a hospital who's basically right down the street from the state Capitol, this place would be on their A game at all times. Wishful thinking I guess. I wish I could give this place 0 stars but unfortunately, I had to settle with one. No matter what your medical emergency, please let this place be your last option.
