Every time my wife, father, and mother have gone there they have always been horrible. From nurses that can't even put an IV in correctly, to Dr's arguing with them about their condition. In one instance my wife had an xray and catscan done and they told her "your kidney are fine" two weeks later her doctor tells her "Well when you were at the hospital they found crystals on your kidney and you have this certain kidney disease...."

My father has a recurring extremely painful abdominal condition that Dr's have yet to figure out because they refuse to check him for anything else other than what they assumed it was the first time, and they were wrong. He went in last time with severe dehydration, and they even told him his kidneys were dry because he was so dehydrated, but they only gave him ONE IV bag and despite mentioning it to servers RN's that his bag had been dry for an hour and he was still dehydrated, they never gave him a second one and sent him home like that. It took him two days to get his hydration levels back to normal because he couldn't keep anything down and they knew that.

My mother is currently there because she just got two teeth pulled and the dentist that did it pretty much butchered her mouth in the process and she's having excessive bleeding and swelling, well above normal. She went to the ER last night because she was in excruciating pain, and they said it's not normal and ran a blood test and that was it. Shes back there today and she had to fight with them just to have one blood test done and they are trying to tell her it's her "allergies" that is causing it. Complete bs.

A few years ago I fell 25ft off a cliff and after an xray and mri they told me that my head was fine and I had no concussion. The next two weeks I was sick every time I got in a car and dizzy all the time, I went to my regulars Dr and he told me I had a SEVERE concussion and that my jaw was dislocated.

Over all. If you need urgent care, go anywhere else but here.
