It seems that there is a culture among the doctors and ER staff that involves treating patients like they're not really worth healthcare providers' time in terms of showing any sort of kindness, good bedside manner, or even keeping the patient rooms clean. My story is that I'd been having trouble breathing from asthma for awhile, yet the doctor kept asking if I took drugs (Do drug addicts even admit to doctors that they take illegal drugs?), and I kept having to repeat myself that I was clean. Then there was my personal nurs... read more

The only reason I rated this hell hole a 1 was because 0 wasn't an option. The entire emergency room staff including negligent nurses and ignorant security deserves to be fired. You can be there on the floor dying from pain and they will not lift a finger to help you or make sure you are in stable condition. I truly pray this death trap is shut down one day very soon, because nobody deserves to be treated the way I was treated.

ER wait times are extremely long, even if you are in severe pain, you have to just lay on the floor and wait! Cause you don't have any other choice, if you don't have a family or car to go to another hospital and top of that you are in pain thinking you can die any moment. ok, you get to see a doctor, may be in 6 hours, then in another 8 hours you will be admitted to the hospital. They take you upstairs, some of the nurses don't know what they are doing, dropping needles and pain medicine in the hallway on their way to your ... read more

As a previous patient and current employee, most importantly an honest reviewer.. the local residents of this area are only to blame for the failure of PGHC.

First of all, because the hospital is older there are NOT as many beds as people assume. Other hospitals have 30 + beds not incl... read more

The Maryland Department of Health has cited Prince George's Hospital several times for medical violations. The hospital has had serious financial crisis for several years. Personally, after waiting 4 hours in their e.r. with a Cervical Strain, a very painful and life-threatning ailment, I left and went to the Washington Hospital Center. There, I was treated promptly and efficiently.

The Maryland Department of Health has cited this hospital for numerous medical violations. And it has had financial and management difficulties for several years. Personally, I waited in their e.r. waiting room for over 4 hours. I left and went to the Washington Hospital which is the area's premier hospital. I was diagnosed as having a Cervical Strain (an excruciating headache with a painful stiff neck). Prince George's Hospital Center sent me a bill for waiting in their waiting room in pain.
