As a student here at the Health Science Center, I know the services can run a bit slow. My boyfriend recently developed some strange health condition, where after many general practice visits (outside of the UTHSC system) and even desperate visits to Mexico, we found our answer at University Hospital. Yes we waited 12 hours until we were seen. His case was more of a chronic "emergency" condition. As soon as they were able to finally screen him, his symptoms were recognized and tests were run immediately. He was admitted that night and was diagnosed and treated the next day. The bed side manner for the week he was there was unbelievably superb for the types of people attracted to this hospital! Very knowledgeable and passionate staff. If you can afford the wait, come here! Obviously, some conditions are acute and serious and require prompt care, but as for our experience, we are satisfied with the outcome. Now my boyfriend is on the road to recovery.
