Worst medical experience of all time. Appear to be very under staffed. My son was a emergency patient. Once you are initially evaluated you are placed in room and forgotten about. A IV port is placed in your which essentially hold you hostage, preventing you to leave. Everywhere you looked there where individuals with the port in their arms waiting as we were. There was a monitor on the wall listing all the patients and how long they had been there still seeking treatment. Some where as long as 16hrs. Only until I threatened to remove the IV myself did anyone respond. My son is a student at Lamar University and allowed a ambulance to transport him there. We fortunately have insurance can choose other locations. It is sad that the uninsured have to be treated this way.
