I went to Baptist Memorial Hospital Desoto on Nov 9 2011.It was the worse experience i ever had there.First of all when i got there at 7:22am i sign end and everything.That part was ok.It was one other person in front of me.That person was called about 10 minutes after i was checked in.Ok when i was finally called to the back at 8:30am i waited in the RAZ waiting room for a hour in a half.Then when the lab called me for blood i almost messed my turn after the other people told the nurse i was going to have blood work did.When she came back for me and put me in the room i waited a full hour before a NP came too see me.He said i was very dehydrated and that he was going too start a iv for me to get some fluids since i was vomiting for two weeks.He never started the fluids.I was running a fever when i got there and nothing was done about that.He order for me to have an chest xray did.After that was done i was put back into the RAZ waiting area where i waited for 2 more hours.When it was time to let me go home i didn't even get to see a doctor or the man that treated me.What i got was a very RUDE NURSE WITH A VERY BAD ATTITUDE.She didn't explain anything that was going on with me just had me to sign paper saying i was being released.Everytime i go to this hospital it the same thing over and over again there never can find anything wrong with me.I don't know if this has something to do with me not having insurance but this is no way to treat a person.I walked in in pain and here it is 2 days later and i'm still not doing any better.The last time i went to this hospital i was told nothing was wrong when indeed i had pneumonia on both of my lungs.I had to drive a hour a way from where i live to find that out.It's not our fault that this is the only er in desoto county.
