My dad has Liver Cirrhosis and was taken to the E.R. 2 years ago, he was vomiting some blood, extreme abdominal pain and some mental unawareness. Even through extreme pain the wait was long, yes I am sorry it is crowded and some people that were there should just make an appointment with their physician, because it's not that big a deal like colds or sprains. This Hospital is horrendous, it's like a Hospital mixed with the Department of Social Services where there's metal detectors just to get in. Obviously those uninsured, low-income people are treated as second class citizens I know this ain't Cedars-Sinai, but seriously I bet poorer countries has better hospitals than Olive View.
BTW: Obviously that only good comment on these reviews comes from an employee or manager with biased information. There is no way that this Hospital will get 5 stars, either that or they ever stepped in a Hospital in their life.
Pros: Nurses
Cons: Doctors that typically ignore you
