Warren General hospital is by far the worst I have ever been to. I went there one night for an abcess located on my neck that was progressively getting larger and more inflamed. After being in the waiting room for 2 hours, i was taken back to an ER room. The doctor came in to see me and spoke to me for a mere 5 minutes to indentify the problem and what allergies etc I have. When the doctor left i was taken to another ER room for further waiting. 1 hour later, two nurses came in to collect blood cultures and take blood samples. I was severely dehydrated and becoming more ill from the now extremely inflamed abcess on my neck. My blood pressure was low as I was ill, so they were having trouble finding a vein to draw blood from. The one nurse found one, had to dig around with the needle to get a small amount of blood. The needle came out of my vein but was still under my skin when she pushed Saline solution in. It made a bubble under my skin and caused pain because she was not in my vein. She then gave up. Another nurse tried, she fished around with the needle for almost 2 minutes until she struck a nerve in my arm which caused excruciating pain. She then also gave up. They attempted to draw blood from me for over 1 hour, finally a 3rd nurse came on shift and got it her first try. While the nurses were trying to draw blood they belittled me and insinuated I used IV drugs and thats why they couldnt do what they needed too, even though i do not and had no markings an IV user would have. Totally unprofessional behavior by the entire staff. An hour after the blood drawing debacle i was taken for a cat scan, and sent back to my room. 2.5 hours passed and not one person came to check on me. The doctor passed my door one time, and he mumbled to himself that he hates working here (WGH) , when a nurse informed him of a phone call. 5.5 hours in I had a cat scan, and some blood drawn. I had to search for someone because they had forgotten about me, and finally the doctor came. He informed me he cant cut the abcess, a surgeon has to do it and hes not here. Then he asks if id like to start my antibiotics 3 hours after they said i was going to get them. All in all, they didnt drain the abcess, insinuated I was a IV drug user, and blatantly disrespected me. I have never seen so many un-professional medical staff in one place. I will never go back to this excuse of a hospital unless absolutely necessary. If you live in Warren and need treatment, drive the extra 30 minutes to Corry or Titusville. I only wrote this because I am in shock and outraged that this actually took place, and dont want anyone else to experience what I did. 8/29/16

ER VISIT: I recently came here following a car accident. I had a serious leg injury (which was dislocated at the kneeband later popped back into place) and a bruised tailbone. The paramedics that took me to the hospital were amazing and very prompt. When transported from bed to bed and onto beds for CT & x-ray machines, the ER doctors did not support my leg, causing a great deal of pain, and took quite a while to give me any working pain medication despite several requests to do so. Thankfully, I was transferred to UPMC Hamot soon after. UPDATE: After further thought regarding my 12/10/2016 visit, I have realized that, while they are not always prepared for a situation such as mine, they did the best they could with the resources they had. They were as friendly and straightforward as possible (even with my constant complaining). During previous visits they were very friendly and worked as fast as they could to help patients. I suppose my memory of that day was a little soured by both the fact that I had almost died and I had received a serious concussion. REHABWORKS: The therapists at RehabWorks are fantastic at their job. I had chronic back pain for years and, after a month of therapy here, I felt much, much better. I could not have gone to a better place. Truly five stars. Had to split the difference.

Yes, the ER takes an ungodly long time. No denying it. I have no idea why. I would plan to make the drive to Kane, Titusville, Jamestown, or Erie if its an "emergency" but you arent in an ambulance. The maternity department is fantastic. We had our first child at McGee womens hospital in Pittsburgh, the second at WGH. The nurses at WGH are sweeter, kinder, more caring, and calmer. Its not big or fancy, but we were well cared for. Our room in Warren was larger than in Pittsburgh and the security was MUCH better! I wouldnt hesitate to have another child there. (If my kid needs an ER though, Ill probably keep driving.)

Literally every time Ive ever gone here its taken a minimum of 5 hours to be seen in the emergency room. Busy or not. Im the only one here and Ive already been sitting 2 hours. Dont waste your time, make the trip to Titusville. Or anywhere but here.

Over crowded, very hot and the wait time is forever and now my family is sitting here while they are bringing prisoners in to sit next to us. Wow, completely uncomfortable.
