Review of MedStar Health, Washington Hos...

This was the worst hospital (E.R) experience ever....

This was the worst hospital (E.R) experience ever. We took a patient who has already been diagnosis with Cancer to the E.R at approximately midnight. It took them more than 5 hours to even see the patient. Crazy thing is we were no the only ones complaining. When we told the gentleman in the front desk whats going on, he said "everyone is sick too and we are very busy) - I still cant believe somebody in the medical profession - somebody who others are trusting their lives and health with can say that. Finally, around 7 am, the patient was called in. She was in so much pain and we asked the RN for some pain meds - she kept on dodging us for like 2 hours. She had the audacity to even change shifts and went home without helping us. When they removed her drip, she started bleeding and the band aid/bandage was all red. We asked her to change it and she comfortably said "I will change it when you guys are being discharged." We have the names of all these "professionals" and we shall be taking appropriate legal measures accordingly. We go to another hospital (wont name it) - Amazing.

One thing though, while in waiting area, i looked around me one word came to my mind. DIVERSITY!!!
