(ZERO STARS) I took my mother to the ER on 12/15/2016 for chest pains and difficulty breathing. Arrived at 9:00 pm. While waiting for my mother to be seen a woman came in and was in excruciating pain, so bad that she was screaming. Apparently she had 2 gall bladders removed an this is her 3rd time coming back in pain. She was screaming that she was bleeding through her staples and the lady at the front desk yelled at her telling her she needs to quiet down because there are other ppl in the waiting room. She was very nasty about it and told her to be quiet a few times. It bothered so bad that I was in tears, this woman was in so much pain she was turning pale and her eyes were rolling in the back of her head. She came in maybe 10 minutes after us it is now 1:30 and she still has not been seen. Nor has my mother. Another womam his here holding her chest in pain and she has been waiting for 4 hours and is just not getting an xray, another woman has been here for 5 hours and her name was removed from the list which has happened to a few other ppl tonight. This place is sooo inorganized, unsanitary and the staff is very rude and can give a damn about their patients. All 3 of the woman at the front desk are on their phones while ppl are trying to talk to them... UNACCEPTABLE! if you are in real bad shape please do not come here shoot dont even come for a hang nail, you will probably leave with an infection. They do not thoroughly clean their beds i have watched the lady go from room to room with the same cloth cleaning beds with no cleaning fluids. BACK to my mother she still has not been seen so we are going to leave now they said there are 9 patients in front of her and it will be a 5-7 hour wait. How in the hell is this an emergency room? In closing the reviews on this hospital are unbelievable horrible and I pray that the board is reviewing these reviews and come up with a plan of action because the community is VERY unhappy with their services. I will NEVER EVER EVER RETURN. it is disturbing that this is the closet hospital to us and I have children, I would drive an hour to another hospital before I come here with a family member again. So much more has happened that I dont even have the energy to mention but if someone of power reads this post PLEASE do something about this horrid service.

If I could give a -67 I definitely would. This place is horrible. I had surgery here against my likes but my doctor only has surgery privileges here. After surgery I swear they tried to kill me. In recovery my blood pressure started to rapidly fall and my heart rate rapidly raised ( mind you Im watching all this). As the nurse notices this they state that Im going to need a emergency blood transfusion stat. The nurse starts to panic because she doesnt know how to get through the computer software to order the blood, her and her colleague start talking over me in their foreign language doing nothing, all the time Im watching my blood pressure dropping . The surgery room doctor ( not my doctor)comes in after another nurse from other department comes and work computer and gets the blood, and hangs the blood all the time telling me and I quote, " I know what the problem was, you loss 800cc of blood during surgery and I knew we should of given you blood during surgery but we didnt ". 6hrs in recovery with the nurses not even cutting my leg pumps ( that prevents blood clots)on and my blood pressure dropping below 70/50 I finally get to room when admitting nurse finds betadine pads with the wrapping left in my private area. I was LIVID, PISSED, MAD AS HELL all in. I recommend that no one ever goes here. They are unprofessional, clueless and dangerous. I personally worked at this facility for 12yrs so I knew of all the horror stories and inconsistencies but I never imagined... ........ I will forever tell my story and let everyone know how horrible they are as for the next 3 mos I have to do an iron regime because of their stupidity. P.s. these concerns were just a few of many issues I had with my stay. .

I have had numerous experiences with this hospital and I have yet to be impressed by anything. My grandparents have been in for many different reasons, emergencies and the like. They were seen and are still alive today, BARELY. They have almost died in this hospital multiple times because of the lack of attention and care they needed desperately. Most of the nurses have absolutely no respect of human life and are quite rude on occasions. It took my whole family being there for my grandmother who had kidney failure to get her out alive because of the poor treatment. I had to be there personally 24/7 for my grandfathers treatment because when I wasnt, he was horribly mistreated. (No pillows when asked, no water, meds coming in late, etc.)As of now I have a friend suffering from cancerous tumors and he is being accused of being a drug addict and almost refused treatment by one doctor who recommended they discharge him and let him die. Upon further arguments, my friend is now getting emergency treatment and another doctor was sent in to apologize for the previous doctors horrible words and treatment options. Regardless of the days these people were having or the lack of proper pay, they should learn to better treat their patients. I understand times are tough but this is just ridiculous. I wouldnt recommend this hospital for anyone who wants to continue a happy, healthy life. They make their money out of convenient placement. NOT the service.

Im not sure what happened to this ER. It use to be excellent. Big, clean, they try to get you in and out with a great doctor to diagnose your illness. Its very different now, it has changed greatly since it transitioned to Piedmont. Henry Medical Center was awesome, Piedmont, no to much. The waiting room is now very small and stink. People are waiting for hours and hours. I went about a month ago because I was so sick, I have no insurance, so I opted to go to the ER. There was a cop standing there, looking at me like Im a criminal, no one is courteous anymore upon walking into the ER. Anywho, I finally get to the back after about 2 hours, which is not all that bad considering how crowded the room was. A Nurse Practitioner comes in examines me and asks me what I need her to do for me. Like WTH???! Im, obviously here cause I am sick. She shrugging the whole time saying that she doesnt know what is wrong. They did not take any tests, just gave me a prescription for antibiotics. I had a feeling it would go bad. Anyway, now a month later, I am STILL sick, I may have pneumonia or bronchitis cause the half ass Nurse Practitioner gave me a non-diagnosis. I am never going back to that ER, they have turned so ghetto and that;s pretty sad that Piedmont would let this happen to such a nice hospital. Dont go there, go somewhere else. Never again, they are not killing me.
