The staff and docs in the ER are absolute professionals! I wouldn't hesitate to take any member of my family there for treatment. Super pleasant, accomodating, and easily some of the most gorgeous nurses in the South!

Nurses & Staff were very professional, very prompt, and very nice putting my needs before their own. Dr Cottingham is the man! Always courteous & explains everything where you can understand it. Highly recommend him if your situation is under his umbrella of treatment.

Our doctor was great. Nursing staff had a couple great nurses and a couple that need to change their profession. The Worst anesthesiologist I have EVER seen or heard about! My pregnant wife was getting a C section and complained of abdominal pain that was making her nauseous. The anesthesiologist dismissed her pain and when she started throwing up in her oxygen mask. He lifted the mask and threw an alcohol pad in it with the throw up. Worst treatment at any medical center in my life. Would NEVER have another baby there and would NEVER recommend the anesthesia services or hospital!

Was misdiagnosed by the ER given antibiotics and went home. Problem got very aggravated overnight, so I went back and they admitted me. I was told they have a urologist (they do not) it took them two days to properly diagnose me. All along doing all of these CT scans and Xrays etc. So I end up staying for 3 days and literally get worse. Then they walk in while I have a fever, 15k white cell blood count and tell me everything's good were discharging you today.
I'm still very sick and thank God I found the right place to go. CRMC is not the place. The nurses are super friendly and try. Their solution was to refer me to a Urologist literally right next door (TWO WEEKS OUT). They do not care about you. They care about the money your insurance company will have to pay them. No need to respond either. I don't care what excuses you have it was a horrible experience.

I had to take my little to the ER @ 10pm and within 1 hr and 50 min we were seen, treated, and prescription in hand. They were Very nurturing and kind. They were slammed full with ppl. Our bed/room was in the hallway. Along with other patients. I never once seen frustration or attitude in the faces of the drs or nurses. If they made eye contact with anyone they gave a smile. I AM V.E.R.Y. IMPRESSED! 10/10

My father passed away at this facility on 03/22/2022. Before his passing he was treated with kindness, compassion and respect. My entire family that visited daddy during his illness was treated respectfully. I could not ask for better care for my daddy.
