I can not believe the lack of attention shown to my wife. At the request of a resident OB my wife was sceduled for blood drawn to check her hcg level. She is loosing her baby and yet her hcg level is rising. (Possible epitopic pregnancy.) Should she have this and it burst it could be very dangerous. For two hours the receptionist at the Lab could not find the perscription. She finally sent my wife home saying ""sorry we are closed."" She came home to me crying. So me being the ""husband calls the ER. Eventially the contection at the er goes dead. (I think they hung up on me) I saw a chart in the ER rating performance at 46 percent satisfaction 2 years ago. It is now up to 70 some if my memory serves me right. Small people there drop the ball. I am sure a hcg test would be far less in cost than a law suit; should my wife keel over. So no I do not rate this hospital very well. The Ob and student who work with my wife were excellent as well as the first emergency Doc. But somewhere along the way a ball was dropped. The ball being my wife!
