Outstanding! The two security guys made me smile as I walked in to an empty waiting room. I was taken into my own private room 5 min later. When a nurse promptly came in to go over my reason for the visit. 5 to 10 min later, a doctor came in and let me explain everything. He ordered thorough testing, blood work, catscan and gave me an estimate of how long it would take to get the results. The radiology department staff were so friendly! They explained everything and got me a warm blanket. The bloodwork and IV were seamless! ... read more

My husband had to visit the emergency room in the middle of the night on 8/8/23. I cannot say enough about the care Dr. Kennedy and the nurse on call (I'm sorry that I do not remember her name) gave my husband. Dr. Kennedy was thorough in his exam and has a very calming and reassuring bedside manner (and might I add a quick wit!). His nurse made sure my husband understood what the prescribed medicines were for and how to care for his wound after discharge. And might I mention we were lucky enough to have no wait and were in... read more

I asked for vomit to be cleaned up off of the floor that was accidentally spilled and no one eve... read more

Each of the personnel was kind, efficient and attentive. Dr. Abjani ( director of ER) was calm and thorough in his interview of my situation as were Dr. Kline (anesthesiologist) and Dr. Smith (knee/hip specialist). Their schedules worked out just right and I was on my way home just 4 hours after dislocating my new hip. A special word about the hospital staff: several staff members (not in ER) went well beyond their normal duties to help me in my crisis.

I went to the ER very reluctantly this morning after being in acute pain all night, as I’m always dreading the long waits and I saw a good amount of negative reviews on here. When I arrived, however, I was in and out faster than I could’ve imagined. The woman who checked me in was quick and kind, got all of my information and had me take a seat. I waited maybe 5-10 minutes before I was called and I was immediately led to a room with a clean bed. Everyone I interacted with, from the technician to the doctor, was incredibly ki... read more
