I had a visit to the Emergency room yesterday and the care I got was super efficient. After checking in, I only waited 10 minutes before getting my vital signs taken. I was sent for Xrays right away and then seen by a doctor within an hour after xrays were done. Since I was being seen for my knees, ankles and hips, I was not needlessly given or stuck with an IV or hooked up to an EKG. A pharmacist came with my medication and explained the side effects to me before I was discharged. The entire length of stay was less than 4 hours. That is the speediest ER visit I have ever had!
