THESE NURSES NEED TO HURRY UP! becuase We doin THEM a favor!! I Gotta get outta here-" The nurse taking care of my wife While hollaring, and I MEAN HOLLARING...SUPER LOUD, the same nurse was yelling about my wife NOT being stable enough to come up to the room and should have remained downstares in the surgery area. And how SHE was not going to be held responsible if "something bad happened to" my wife..And after the African workers were trying to Calm the Black american nurse, She started saying..IM SORRY FOR YELLING BUT I NEED YALL TO PUT IT ALL IN WRITING...YALL WANNA REPORT ME, THEN YALL NEED TO DO WHAT YALL NEED TO DO" still yelling. She stated the ROOM of the patient they were talking about...IT WAS MY WIFES ROOM...the guy comes into the hallwhere i was, and sees Im listening to the whole thing..Then says, "oh they were not talking about your wife"- THERE IS ONLY ONE PERSON IN THE ROOM..MY WIFE!!! She had surgery that was to take only 4 hrs, but began bleeding, after the dr told me she assured the anastesiologist she would not. The dr told me that she would now be put in recovery.TWO HOURS LATER...no wife...the security guards actually came up to the hall way to bother me asking.."sir may i help you?" ---IM HERE WAITING FOR MY WIFE......"shes STILL HERE?" I said is that unusual? he said YES, usually everyone is GONE by now, or in a room. SO EVEN HE, A GUARD saw there was something wrong....But i was played like it was all good. MAKE NO MISTAKE, it will not end here.

Worst experience ever in my life I myself worked in few different ERs and can compare but this was one of the worsest experienced ever!! I came here in excruciating pain because of my kidney stone. Triage nurse trated me like I was some kind of a junkie who came in for a fix. When I was brought to the back I was seen by a Resident (that looked like he doesnt know what he was doing) not even a Doctor and ordered pain meds for me that didnt do anything for me and they didnt even want to give me a hot pack (not talking about stronger pain meds) stating that it needs to be ordered which is not true... I could hear discussing them my situatiuon and saying that I dont have a kidney stone although I was diagnosed with them before. So after about 2 hours torturing me there they transferred me to Stroger where they found a 7mm kidney stone!!!!

This is a great hospital..... I went there because I had a pain in my stomach only to learn my appendix was about to burst.......the doctor I saw said I got there just in time otherwise I would have had serious problems.....had me sign some papers and operated on me within the hour..... Put me in a air conditioned private room for a few days to recover and when I woke up the pain was gone. Ill go there before I deal with the foolishness at the County hospital...... They are top notch in my book and I wouldnt hesitate to go back......the only thing you gotta deal with is the area and lack of parking........if u can get past that its a great hospital with caring doctors that have great bedside manners!!

The hospital staff appear to be doing their best given the environment and services of the hospital; on the other hand based on an observation of multiple visits the patients appear to be complete nutt cases with serious educational and mental health challenges!! Compared to a private hospital (very expensive) this place feels very depressing and unclean! (but its free) As a high tax payer I was expecting these places to be a little better, but I would be kidding myself!! Wonder where all our tax dollars go! I would have thought these health institutions should have been a goverment priority but who am I kidding!

Went to emergency room at Provident because of chest pains. Triage nurses were wonderful and caring. Doctor sent my prescriptions to the pharmacy across the street and after waiting for about an hour I picked them up. Cook Countys clinics and pharmacys are very busy places and the staff works very hard to care for patients. My experience at Provident Hospital was so much better than Stroger. Thank goodness for Provident and their staff, wonderful caring people.We are lucky to have Provident Hospital in the neighborhood.

I only went to this hospital because of the feedback on here. I must say I was impressed with the staff. I go back in the morning for a follow up and may need surgery on Friday. Well see how my experience with that goes! Im optimistic that itll be comforting. I brought my two daughters with me too and the nurse gave them sandwiches, Graham crackers, and juice.

Have nothing but good things to say for both emergency care and regular visits. Staff always courtesy and informative. In emergency room, they explained why I had to wait, and they were courtesy when I complained about the wait. Adequate and professional care given each and every time. Good listeners, too. Even the billing department is kind and courteous.

This place is terrible. I love my doctor I hate their nurses. Especially Jasmine in the clinic she has no bed side manners. You cant ask questions you just have to take their bad service and the mess they try and pump you with. Ridiculous. I cant stand this place. Youre dealing with people health be better.

I just had the most wonderful experience going to provident emergency room. I was nervous that Id be in there for hours but we were out and had been seen in less than an hour. Nurse Owens was an angel, very upfront, and honest and we appreciate her...

Hands down - the best ER treatment Ive ever received. I was having an asthma attack and the ladies of the ER and triage staff were the most responsive and professional Ive encountered in my adult life.

It was horrible, I sat waiting for over 5 hours. I tried to ask security and the triage nurse how much longer and they were rude. This place is awful.

The Staff was great that was on duty....Perhaps they were over worked as in many hospitals. The hospital needs upgrades and expansion. God Bless!
