Review of St. Alexius Medical Center

Each time I come to this hospital to go to the emergency room no matter if it's for myself, friends or my child the wait time is nearly two hours or longer. I Usually drive further to Sherman Hospital in Elgin IL if I need to go to the emergency room and never once have I waited close to an hour for my child. It seems that St. Alexian Brothers is understaffed and can't help more then two- three people at a time in the emergency room.
I brought my 6 year old here for the first time (again I always drive further to Sherman) because he was throwing up, had diarrhea, couldn't keep a thing down and had a fever. Since this is closer to my house I did not want to risk any accidents and get him help as soon as possible.....We waited two hours and 9 mins.
