This hospital is incompetent in so many areas. Had blood work done over a month ago and they don't know what happened to my results or why said results were not sent. The ER is not any better.

Receptionist was angry that I wasn't from New Mexico and couldn't get her information even though I had a fever of 103 at the time, was basically told we don't know whats wrong with you l, just take some Tylenol and advil (whitch I had been doing but they didn't care) nurse DID NOT WEAR GLOVES and insisted I take meds that she was holding in her gross hands, also before I left she put the thermometer in my mouth for 2 seconds and insisted I didn't have a fever anymore (I still did, and i could feel it) so I showed her on my own thermometer and asked if she could retake it but leave it in my mouth for more than 2 seconds this time she threw a hissy fit.
Also they kept a homeless guy in what looked like a room used for storing things with the lights off, I didn't think that was a very nice way to treat him. A week or so ago I ate from a one star sushi restaurant that gave me really bad food poisoning, I'd sooner recommend that place than here. I initially went there because I had a fever of 104, and I wish I'd had just gone to Albuquerque or something.

I was seen at Cibola for pain in my gallbladder. My attending nurse Angela was amazing. She was attentive and kind. She understood my fears at being in the ER and extended so much compassion towards me. It was definitely needed since no family members are allowed in. Dr. Wilkes was also amazing. She listened and was very clear in explaining each step to be taken regarding my care. I was made to feel comfortable and safe. Thank you Cibola General!

Triage team was cold hearted. Your in pain and they keep asking the se questions, like they were going to change. But once I got a bed and a nurse who's bedside manner could be thought to her coworkers. I was made comfortable. But as soon as the doctor entered. He must have trained triage nurses. He didn't have no concerns about my visit. He was more concerned with clearing the ER and he didn't even want to listen to my visit to the ER.
So I just took a shot to help with my pain. He gave me pain medicine for 2 days but wasn't able to see a primary doctor until two weeks. So I might be see him again soon. I need meds to control my pain until I could be able to see a primary doctor. So I took the book He gave me for discharge info. So I feel the visit was not even worth my pain & time and the Dr's. So if you help with your emergency. Go to the health clinic and get the help you need. For the nurses that helped Keep up the good work and you'll be rewarded for your great work!

I had a surgery at Cibola General Hospital and was completely satisfied with my care and the treatment I received from the staff. As a retired paramedic/firefighter of 25 years, I know a good medical team when I see one and this is the best I've ever seen.
