I've been to the emergency room multiple times in my life and every time I come out feeling better and alive!
I came to the emergency room at 11p.m. with my child. I was informed that they were waiting on room availability, but they would do the testing needed (x-rays) so the results will be back by the time a room is available. We were called back to a room by 12:30am. We are still sitting in one of the rooms waiting for x-ray results that were done before we had a room for 3 hours and counting (yes, I have my timer on).
I was admitted for a week through the er while working (I drive a semi and live in Arkansas). I have a very complicated medical history so that combined with being in a strange place during a medical emergency was terrifying! But everyone here took the absolute best care of me and made me feel right at home. I truly appreciate ALL staff members. From housekeeping, registration and food services, to nurses, doctors and surgeons. Everyone was wonderful. Thank you all so so much! I will never forget your kindness.
I sat in the waiting room with my daughter for 2.5 hours. Finally went back to an E.R. room only to sit here for another 8 hours! Still sitting waiting for a room to open up, supposedly.
Terrible service from ER Dr. Took 3 hrs to get results from a CT scan. Came in for blinding headaches and left after 4hrs with nothing. I informed them about high blood pressure issues that I dealt were causing my headaches but not once did I get my blood pressure checked or even a mention of it as a cause. I know from my own observations that when my head is pounding my blood pressure is way up. Like 140/110 or even higher. When I mentioned this in the end he wanted me to get a spinal tap. No way. Not without excusing all other options. Failure. After 4 hrs and probably over a thousand dollars I went home with a worse headache and nothing for for relief. I turned down the meds that were basically ibuprofen. Informed him from the beginning that I had been taking ibuprofen but it stopped working a week ago. I feel I was not offered anything to break the headache up because the Dr had profiled me before he ever walked in the door. He looked up my records and seem I had been in there for injuries in the past. But he twisted it around and suggested I was just there to get pain meds. I was insulted in the manner he approached me so I refused the mild medication he offered I can get the same thing over the counter for much less than it would cost to get it at the ER.
