Admin is definitely not managing accordingly. Whoever is in charge of billing needs to be replaced immediately. Second time going down there with an EOB in hand from my insurance company, BC/BS Federal paid the bill. I paid my copay. Their billing department is not managed properly.

This was one of the worst experience ever. If at all possible don't go to Beaufort Memorial more than 2 times for the same thing. I am not quite sure why i have chest pain, but I have had chest pains a few times in the past. My mom and dad died early of heart disease. So, when I feel pain I get nervous. Well today I went to the emergency room because my blood pressure was low and I felt pain and light headiness.
One of the nurses said "you have been here before chest pains your not having a heart attack. What did they tell you the last time you were here." I was so upset what ever happens happens. I left I pray to the good Lord nothing happens I left with her word as the hospitals nurse it wasn't a heart attack. I understand there are sick people who need attention but it frightens me when my chest hurts. its sad people are so insensitive to other.
This is not a free service for me. I pay good money to have health insurance. its not my fault when pain occurs. I would like to thank the triage nurse who came out to see what the problem was and why I was leaving with tears in my eyes.

Worst experience ever waiting time was ridiculous for it's only be 3 people in lobby, but hey it's a hospital long wait was expected. Whats really disturbing is Most of the staff is racist and especially the one nurse JUSTINE. Worst attitude a person could have like who tf even are you? Her attitude towards the world is a reflection of how she feels about herself pathetic! Such a disgrace to the whole medical field and should be working in a prison.

I went to the ER and to my surprise there was maybe 2 people in there. The staff was extremely friendly and quick to get me to the back to see a doctor. I expected there to be a kind wait but honestly there wasn't. The nurses and doctors were patient, kind and thorough. I felt heard as they listened to my concerns and valued because they didn't just say "ooo it could be.". They checked for everything pretty much and since we are still In times of covid they did a covid test as well as about 20 others to make sure they didn't miss anything. The parking is a little sketchy by the ER but otherwise it was a great hospital for emergencies.

Do not send your loved ones here. They are impossible to work with. They told my husband incorrect information before running his tests causing him to get false negatives and needing to start all over with a more competent doctor. They screwed up the way they billed, telling him he owed them over $1000 when he is active duty military and threatened to send him to collections while we went in circles for months.
Then they told him he was responsible for getting a referral for every test they ran and it wasn't their problem. They couldn't get him a follow up for 2 months and then canceled a week before only to push him out further! Awful care all around!

If at all possible, never get a blood or glucose test here. Waited 1 3/4 hour for my blood test in general office building. Not the most skilled tech since had to return in a few minutes with blood gushing out my tape (she never put a band aid or compression wrap on). Pity the poor pregnant women who were hungry and tired and had to wait this amount of time for each glucose test.
