Well I went for an allergic reaction. I was sent in to have a ct scan pretty quickly and they told us we should have our results back in 30 mins. We were cramped in a small waiting room where there wasn't even enough room for everybody to sit, people getting health history or iv's put in had no privacy. We sat in that room for 4 hours until we were called back, when we were supposed to only be there for 30 mins. Then we sat on a stretcher in the middle of the
hallway for 20 mins. Then finally a doctor comes over, Taps me on the chest a couple times with a stethoscope, takes my pulse and tells me to open my mouth. He says my results are normal. 4 and a half hours to do something that should've taken 15 minutes. I would definitely not recommend this hospital.

Update:
My brother went to centerpoint he had hurt his knee and went to get it check out. They did an x-ray and said there may possibly be a problem but no surgery would be involved. A few days later we went to children's mercy because he was getting worse. He was there for a little while with people CONSTANTLY checking on him that was such a good change from centerpoint. They soon rushed him into the OR for emergency surgery on his knee. Then later he had to have ANOTHER surgery to clean the knee out more. Thanks centerpoint for saying that surgery wouldn't be needed and that there "might" be a problem. But if you have children GO TO CHILDRENS MERCY they will treat you so well and make sure you are actually okay and take care of the problem
