18 hours waiting in the ER waiting room. Worse than a VA Hospital. They have a system where you are called back for tests and then return to the waiting room. It feels very clunky and inefficient. The staff keeps telling that it is efficient and faster but results say otherwise. I had to get several tests which were about 4 hours of waiting apart. I was encouraged to go a different ER but informed that I would not be able to take my test results with me. There were people who were severely ill who spent over 8 hours in the waiting room as well. The waiting room cannot be sanitary (or is at least high risk). Also, the waiting room is too small to keep funneling people back into. I highly recommend going to another ER. Positive note: once actually seen by a doctor, they are very friendly.
