Service after two years is going downhill (FAST). Beginning to believe it is time to go back to UNMC to get service and responses that are necessary so I can decide on my future treatment.

They have me down for radiology but I didn't do it yet. I've been here since 2:05 it is now 3:25 waiting to see doctor. It will probably be 4:00 before I see doctor. Last time I was here it was same thing they forgot about the x-rays until the last minute. I won't be coming back again I have had it with place it is getting worse than better. Even if I had cancer I would not come here. I talked to lady about my experience last time she said she fix it all, if I had problems like this again call her. I forgot her name.

Cannot believe how horrific the care my mother has gotten! After her telling her oncologist for the last 2 years she hasn't felt well and she's had pain breathing and her complaints being ignored and even after her having multiple visits to the local ER and no one connecting the dots or seeing the red flags.we find out she has STAGE 4 cancer NOW! My mother's oncologist literally told her after getting the markers back HE DIDN'T THINK HE NEEDED TO BE CHECKING THEM!
Why because she had a double mastectomy and was on levetrole. NOW instead of something that could have been headed off early, my Mom is facing the fight of her life! We as a family are sick and livid.

For the short amount time spent with staff members was uplifting and gave me confidence to start treatment. Everything was explained and I was issued a notebook with all information to follow my treatments and staff phone numbers.
