I give the staff five stars not the institution itself. The staff that I encountered were extremely kind and wonderful to me. They went out of their way to ensure that I was comfortable and ok even though the situation was uncomfortable. The staff consisted of Veronica and Erica at the front desk of the ER department, charge nurse Ivy (who by the way did an excellent job inserting my IV as I'm scared of needles), Nurse Noelle and nurse Shannon. The hospital wait was nearly almost 24 hrs but these women went above and beyond their job to ensure that I was well looked after. They all deserve the WOW! award!

I went in for a mammogram. The process to check in was easy. The mammogram portion with the technician was pleasant. She was very personable. If I was only rating the mammogram portion, I would give it a 5. I gave a 4 rating because the greetings/personabilities of the check-in and registration desk personnel left much to be desired. It's felt like it was a strain and took every inch of their beings to be pleasant.

This is a terrible hospital! Staff is always extremely rude to patients. They don't follow hippa regulations. The cdc should shut this place down I witness three people walk in without mask as well as when I asked if they had any automatic hand sanitizers versus the ones you have to touch a employee I believe a security officer told me there's no hospital with hand sanitizer station that you don't have to touch which is a lie this would be the first one that doesn't have the hands free.
I stated that wasn't sanitary and I was told "OH Well" by staff then they proceeded to speak about me complaining about the hand sanitizer. This was extremely rude and this place is disgusting. ADD on I've been here since 2pm it's five others in here that came in after me and none of us have been seen at all. It's now 5:38p and I just got called to triaged for my vitals. The Registration lady KAREN was extremely rude as well!

I agree with the reviews here. This place is awful. They lost a family member's hearing aid and lied about it. They don't answer your questions. They are dishonest and unprofessional. They discharged and elderly patient with dementia alone to his home. Told the ambulance driver someone was at his home to help him. Sent him home by ambulance with nothing but a hospital gown not even underwear. Its 35 degrees outside. Please pin a note to yourself in case of emergency do not take me to this hospital

I gave birth at this hospital 3 weeks ago. Let me just say the labor and delivery floor is under staffed and it shows. At any given time if they have 2 or more emergency C sections they start panicking and other patients may not get the attentive care they need. I was here for 5 days so I literally met almost all the nurses on various shift. Some are attentive, patient, caring, and overall pleasant.
Then you have those who do not want to be there, impatient, frustrated and irritated easily. They provide basic ice and water if you need it. Other than that don't expect too much. Overall I give this hospital a 4/10. And I more than likely would not give birth here again. I do want to commend the mommy & me floor. They took excellent care of me and my newborn.

Micheal is horrible at the triage desk! Make sure you let someone else pass your chart along because he didn't give mine to the nurse. I ask a few times about my wait because I saw people after me in less pain going In. I got there at 10:11am only to find out at 8:30pm my chart never went back. He hid my chart on purpose because he was Annoyed that I asked for updates. The second shift came in and I ask what was my status she couldn't find it, so she searched for my chart and it was under some other stuff On the desk.
Then he lied on the paper and said I didn't respond 3x so they took me off the waiting list. I only used the bathroom once, and checked back in as I came out. I left at 8:30pm had to call the ambulance outside the hospital to figure out my status of my heart. I never got treatment or seen so I will go to my PC tomorrow! If you can go elsewhere people was waiting for 8-10hrs. Bring breakfast lunch and dinner if you do choose to go here!
