Review of UNC Health Care

Worst experience of my life!!! I had two surgeries...

Worst experience of my life!!! I had two surgeries here after I severely broke my leg and ankle. The CNAs/nurse techs were nice but the nurses I had were TERRIBLE!! When I came out of this hospital both times in horrible pain by the way after my surgeries, I was crying and would have done anything to get out of there. There was a nurse named Katherine who treated me awful. I came out of surgery and was screaming in pain because my cast needed to be opened due to pressure , they stopped giving me the medication I needed so I was literally laying there suffering in pain. Screaming for at least an hour. I had to call my family to get them to get me some help. I had nobody to advocate for me and was tortured by this nurse literally. I have seen really bad nursing homes treat people better than I was treated. I will be writing lots of letters and turning this nurse in. 90% of my experience with this hospital was so bad no human should ever have to experience the things I did. I am now just dealing with orthopedics which Ive had more issues with another Nurse over there. My surgeon and the resident I had have been the only saving grace. These nurses need to retire if they are so miserable with what they do or get another job. This hospital got tons of money from my me and my insurance and I was treated like I was a pile of trash that they just wanted to get rid of.
