My girlfriend was admitted into the ER because of a serious infection in her mouth. Waiting for a doctor to drain it. Sitting here for 9 hours and nothing.

They expect to be paid and for people to be patient after waiting for 9 hours.

Also the staff gets extremely defensive when a patient who has been waiting for 9 hours is upset and is asking for information.

We checked in at 4pm and it's currently 1am.

The information they provided was that the ortho Doctor has to service the whole hosiptial. ITS 1AM. What whole hosiptial?

The ER waiting room is empty. The patient continued care lobby is empty. What is the delay?

Horribly unprofessional.

If I would have known this was going to take 9 hours I could have flown to another state,
been treated flown back in the same amount of time.
