BEWARE of staff stealing patient identity.. First of all my wife had a horrible experience at the ER University Hospital on Fletcher. I don't have enough time to explain how poorly her situation was handled. The staff and doctors were not very professional and our stay should have been half the time it took. Wife had a kidney stone, was in great pain as anyone who has had a stone pass can attest too..not much they can do for that but supply pain relief....$10,000 was the bill..YES!!!!!!!! Criminal...and then someone stole my wife's identity and racked up additional $1000's on a credit card. Purchases were made within miles of the hospital...not a coincidence! The Tampa police said this has become very popular with identify theft cases. WATCH OUT..go somewhere else or take your chances.
