I visited the ER and was met by a horrible attitude on every level by the staff on duty. Watch out for PA Ginger McLeod and her followers not questioning her ethics or direction. Look for RN Tamera Kraus. They will lie to your face about what they are doing with your urine samples! And then, if you anger PA Ginger Mcleod, she will also put a diagnosis in your records, unbeknownst to you, like drug abuse or meth abuse in my case. I wasn't on meth and was still on pain meds from a surgery spine fusion that the supposed drug screen failed to pick up on. Convenientit it showed i was on street drug Meth. Not a chance.
I have 4 years clean on this last March 8th, from street drug use on a recreational basis, so finding this incorrect diagnosis and underhanded drug screen in the first place really upset me. I am still dealing with records to have this removed instantly from my records and my 4 year old records. And based on false practice, having no grounds for drug testing me in the first place, McLeod calls Child Services down to chat with me, after not addressing the chief complaint of long-term exposure to Black mold in our home. No other labs were ordered. Just 10 mins after We arrive with legitimate concerns for my four year olds life, she orders a drug screen. Then gets back my results, and nobody mentions a thing to me about their suspicion of.drug use. But the modified records state that I was consulted about treatment options. Lie after lie after lie. We had paperwork to show the hospital the levels on Stachybotrys we had tested and resulted with and they refused to even look at the results claiming nobody will help us in whole Coachella Valley for black mold inhalation and ingestion. Unbelievable.
