This hospital is so horrible. They dont care about their patients and there is no leadership in their team. If you are in a life threatening situation, please do not go to this hospital. My husband was at the ER for heart problem. Taken there by the ambulance when my husband should be taken to Nellis Hospital. (Although the ambulance EMTs probably saved my husbands life from cardiac arrest by giving him shock before they reached the hospital.) The whole time my husband was at this hospital, we never see a real doctor (MD) and the only highest medical person who administered my husband was NP - nurse practitioner. They never discussed the results of all the tests that they took from my husband and they told my husband that after another blood test that my husband could go meaning be released. After hours of waiting for the test result, another nurse told my husband "No, we are admitting you for the night" but wont tell us why. They wont discuss the test results with us but then they want to keep my husband there longer, I am assuming just to bill our insurance. After we told the staff that my husband did not want to be admitted, they just let us wait for hours ignoring us. One thing that really disgusted me was the patient next to my husbands bed was screaming and screaming for a long time but nobody was there checking on him. This guy was not speaking English and they just laughed and ignored him. I got fed up and annoyed listening to the screaming so I went to the nurse station and told them that someone has to check that patient next to my husband. Finally, someone came to check that patient, but only after I complained to the nurses. Make long story short, my husband was eventually discharged from that horrible place, but guess what, the staff wont even give us a release paper, name of doctors, test results or doctor in-charge. I have to asked around names of nurses and the NP who just disappeared after knowing that my husband wanted to be discharged. What kind of medical professionals are these people? You cannot charge our insurance for another day so you just run home without talking to your patient? What kind of professional are you? A very low-class to me. I think, this hospital has to be investigated and if they are receiving federal funding the hospital should be following guidelines on how to provide proper care and treatment to patients. The ER in this hospital is NOT understaff, they have so many staff in that facility but I could not tell which one are nurses and which one are just pretending to be nurses. They all acted that they are big-wig professionals when many of these staff are probably just peons. I have never been to ER hospital that did not have MDs especially for life threatening situations. I am sad to say that this hospital is in need of good leadership and if they cannot do that this hospital should fold. I am not criticizing the hospital just because everybody does. I saw it with my own eyes and this facility should be rated the lowest in my opinion. So if you would ever have to take a love one or someone you know to ER or hospital, please take your patient somewhere else. . . . . I would never ever take a patient in this facility ever gain. Please take my word seriously.

This the most horrible place I have ever been to, the staff are completely rude, the place is nasty and they treated my mother like she was in the mental ward! I arrived to visit my mother with her grandchildren as I always do when shes in the hospital and I was told its flu season and due to flu season the children were not allowed. I then stated well I work in a hospital and the flu season was over as of march 31st. Then the staff responded with well the signs are still up. I laughed and said mam that just shows how incompetent your staff is for now doing their job! Then she replied with, well even if they were down the kids would have to be 12years or older, I asked why? She replied thats hospital policy. I said ok as Im walking out I seen a white man and 2 little children coming from the back, so I asked hey sir did you just see a patient with your children he replied yes I did I seen my wife! I then approached the counter again and said mam. You allowed him to go with his kids why cant I? She gave no instant reply, she then said theyre taking turns. So I asked the man in front of her sir who are you here to see? He replied "we just seen my wife". So now as a black woman I know that this is a racial profiling thing, so I began to ask more questions and she called Security on me, I just looked at her a left! This place is horrible and a disgrace to society. This place needs to be shut down and as a woman who works in healthcare and a different hospital system I would never treat people like this and I will be calling state to handle this situation.

First off, its sad because they have some great doctors. I didnt want to even rate them because of that. Thats the only reason I gave them 2 stars otherwise I wouldve given 1 for their nurses. The nurses are who take care of you the whole time and if they treat you badly youre gonna stop going to that hospital. I only take my husband there because of one awesome Doctor, Dr. Sinha. I dont think we will be going there anymore. Theres TOO many nurses that are either just desensitized or deranged. Its just common sense, you dont treat someone bad whos sick or dying like this!! Had to change back to 1 star its that bad here. ER and ICU DOCTOR / NURSES I KNOW YOU MAY BE SYRESSWD BUT THATS NO REASON TO TREAT US LIKE ANIMALS. YES YOU "DR. GANNON" BLAMING A PATIENTS LIVER FAILURE ON THE FAMILY MEMBERS ... GOOD ONE! IT COULDNT BE THAT HES IN END STAGE CIRRHOSIS OF THE LIVER AND HAS HAD IT FOR 25 PLUS YEARS! Then after she blames me she denies it. This place is pathetic. The nurse in icu is CRYING now because my husband pushed the bag out that they keeps trying to put in so they can give him medicine anally. They never do it this way.

Worst hospital Ive ever been to went there in March of 2014 the waiting room was over crowded there was patient sitting on the floor without a beds. I was there a half an hour when they finally came to check my blood pressure and asked me what was wrong , finally when I did get into a room the doctor came in talk to me for about 2 minutes left because he said there was some burn victims that he needed to tend to cause they were more serious than me, I finally got fed up and decided to just discharge myself Couple months later I get a bill in the mail for $600 saying I received services. When I called their billing department I and told them I have insurance they told me yeah your insurance paid the hospital bill but now theres another bill for the doctor because he works for a different agency and your insurance wont pay him. I barely even seen the man 2 minutes he never came back to help me never gave me any prescription never diagnosed me with anything and he wants 600 dollars WTH. Please stay away from this hospital this is the worst one Ive ever been to and will never come back there ever!!!!!!
