I went to the ER with severe ear pain and vertigo....

I went to the ER with severe ear pain and vertigo. I was told to go straight to the hospital from urgent care. I couldn't barely walk or open my eyes and my ear was completely crusted over with scabs.
The first doctor to my room/cubicle was completely rude and dismissive about my condition. He was told to get a sample from my ear and have it tested. He told the other Dr. he would but didn't need to since he already knew what was wrong with me. I was swiftly dismissed with an antibiotic perscription and was told to come back if I started to lose my vision.
They wrote on my discharge papers that I had swimmers ear. Two days later I was no better and all of a sudden my face was completely paralyzed on the right side. Turns out that I had shingles and now I have Bell's Palsy. If they tested my ear why did I not get a call to change my medication before my condition worsened.
Now I just received a $1000 bill from them. For what??
All I have to say is please do not go to this hospital if your life depends on it.
**An update for this after a month. I still have Bell's Palsy and I hadn't received my total bill yet in my first post. The Bill was much closer to $1500. and turns out this is the cost just to walk in the door and wait over 2 hours to be seen for five minutes.
They had a doctor review our case to see if it was handled correctly and if the bill was justified. He decided their negligence in my case is why people pay them so much money and I should pay also. He said I should have come back for another bill when I got worse so that they had a second chance to get it right.
Worst hospital ever. At the end of the day. Know that you are walking into this place to get robbed and you are going to feel a lot worse when you leave. Do yourself a favor and drive to Rex or Duke.
