Very dysfunctional ER! Waited 8 hours before being seen by a doctor. Never have I waited that long in any ER. Seems to be several problems here: understaffing, low morale, lack of communication among staff, lack of modern technology. My instruction when I left was to contact a primary care doc whose name was given to me. When I called this doctor, the staff told me that she dealt with infectious diseases, of which I do not have. I was told by the hospital staff that she was a primary care doctor.

I read their mission statement while waiting for 8 hours and this place fails miserably in their mission.
