The staff here are absolutely unpleasant and unhelpful. I had a really serious panic attack last night and got taken to this ER because it was the closest. I usually go to William Osler or Etobicoke General This isn't my first one so I know how to deal with it on some parts but there are times when I need support. The paramedics didn't comfort me in any way and the nurse that saw me was so sarcastic in a way I didn't need. She was giving me an ECG and I was still recovering from my attack so I was crying. My boyfriend was there and she said "stop crying. It's not cute to do that in front of your boyfriend. You ruined a good date night with you two for this attack! Girl it isn't cute." I felt so unsupported and uncomfortable, my anxiety lasted all night until I got to talk with a counsellor. Thank god for him, he was the only one who helped me! Another lady had a severe panic attack and was balling her eyes out. Instead of comforting her, the nurses brought in her husband and said "we can't do anything. This is your wife! Calm her down".
