Review of Good Samaritan Medical Center

I wouldn t recommend anyone to go here. I went her...

I wouldn t recommend anyone to go here. I went here twice for abdominal pain. My first visit it took them 2 hours to give me anything(medicine), while I was throwing up blood and crying from the excessive amount of pain I was in. The ladies that were taking my vitals were extremely UNPROFESSIONAL, they talked about not wanting to take in other patients ... and closing the ER because they were tired and wanted the hurricane to come so bad. After running tests, and giving me medicine through the IV, They rushed me out the hospital. Telling me other people needed the bed . My second visit was for abdominal pain AGAIN. When I got their it was the usual two ladies both EXTREMELY RUDE... I was throwing up and bending over from the pain. They insisted on me sitting up straight; knowing it was an issue. When I got to the room a STUDENT and TRAINER were going draw blood. The student took about 20-30 minutes to come. I DID NOT WANT THE STUDENT TO PRACTICE ON ME. While waiting I wouldn t stay still I kept shaking. When the student finally came she did everything WRONG. The band was so tight around my arm it started to become numb, I let them know and they kept saying JUST A SECOND . The student poke me about 3 times, causing a aching pain in my arms, until the TRAINER tried. I Tried to aware the EMT of the fact that my veins are small but they said it was because I couldn t stay still. A nurse came in and told me if I didn t stay still I have to leave. She yelled at me saying well you don t wanna get better, just stay still or I m going to discharge you . The Trainer finally succeeds but I throw up in the process and the nurse yells at me again. I broke down crying and ask to speak to the director or whoever was above, all the individuals in the room, An EMT stated that the nurse who told me to leave was. I let her know I was very upset before leaving the hospital, with NO TREATMENT. I drove to another one and luckily made it before I passed out in the hallways, from dehydration and overheating. I was scared I was going to lose my life that day because a nurse throws me out the hospital for being sick. The only reason I gave two stars were for the Male EMT (TRAINER) he tried to reassure me I was going to be okay when I throwing up and when I broke down.
