my name is david belflower and this is my story. on the 7th of december 2010 i awoke to my wife screaming in pain with her back .i immediately picked my wife and her belongings up and headed out the door to the hospital. up on arriving at the hospital i was faced with the task of getting this very sick woman into the er. no one even cared that this woman could barely walk. and this was very visible to all who were attending at the time. up on checking in with the receptionest we were made to wait in the lobby till 10 am. we arrived at 9 am.once we finaly were tooken to the back it was 11 am.before any one came to see us. remember my wife is in so much pain that all she can do is cry. no one has offered any pain medication AT ALL, not even an aspirin. its well after 11 am now and a doctor( if thats what you would call him),comes through the door spends about 30 seconds with my wife tells her he is going to give her a mri and disappears. well its almost 12 pm and im done with this insanity. i called for the nurse, she brings a prescription that my wife cant take and tells us we are being discharged what happened to the MRI. the nurse had no clue of what the others were supposed to be doing i ask you the general public will you bring your loved ones to this place. i hope the answer is never. incompetence is running to unimaginable heights in this hospital. i just about had to carry my wife back though the waiting room of this place.on my way out i seen a young lady start to cry as she looked upon my wife . people need to be fired for this and i am looking into action further more. i took my wife ten miles down the road to another hospital.and this time i had to carry her in. the docters at this hospital were on there game. they had her in a room in less than three minutes.thank you from the bottom of my heart huntersvile and shame on the so called staff at lake norman, remember that oath you all took as doctors and nurses to help the sick NO MATTER WHAT
