I have had many terrific experiences at St Francis Hospital. HOWEVER, right now I am angry and very worried about my daughter, who had to get stitches in the ER today.
She had a wound about the size of a half dollar piece on her leg. You could see the covering of her tibia. Mid stitching, the PA took a phone call. Then left to speak to a different patient. By the time he got back to finish, she could feel everything.
There was no advice about walking, no script for antibiotics ( or explanation for lack of), no pain management script.
My daughter is 22. I am far away, and was unable to meet her and ask these questions. A few minutes more at discharge would have been valuable
