A while back I went here just to sit in a room for three hours, also fell asleep. Had to push the button multiple times to get someone in there to see when I'd be seen and it would probably be another 3 hours which is ridiculous. A bit later I had to push it again so I could tell them I'm leaving. All they did was draw blood and then as I left they wanted a payment of a couple hundred which I didn't have at the time especially for not doing a damn thing. Then I get a bill in the mail for their "service" of somewhere in the 800s.

Another thing is my girlfriend having our baby boy. It was a very stressful, invasive several days. The nurses were so intruding in her privacy and they viewed me as some untrustworthy guy who takes people's prescriptions? They kept asking her very personal questions about her medication and when she didn't feel comfortable answering they would reword the question and ask again. When we got the okay to leave from the actual doctor, the nurses held us in there even longer saying they had one more "test" to do on our baby boy. Which is ridiculous. They also tried to keep him longer due to him being stressed because of how they were handling him and all of the poking and prodding. We eventually got a new nurse who was understanding and my girlfriend could actually talk to. All in all some of the nurses were awful and very intrusive in our privacy.
I know this is long, but this hospital needs some work especially with the nurses they hire.
