I went there for an ankle injury. The nurses that were caring for me never gave me their name, I had to ask where they put me so that my dad could meet me in my room. They came and took x-rays but I never saw them, I had a charge nurse (whos name was never given to me) tell me that i had a fracture and that was it. I spent a total of about 3 hours there and in those 3 hours I was presented with one person after another that was rude and didn't know how to do their job. Communication between staff was poor and there was obviously some type of outside tension amongst professionals.
Dr. Emily M. Simpson whose specialty is infectious disease, is no more than an immature valley girl. She tsked in disgust and stated “I hate feet” and then went on to describe how “grossed out” she was and how nasty my injury was. Who the h*ll does that? Not a professional, that’s for sure.
Mercy is a terrible place to take your loved one!! We brought a family member here for head trauma and he was diagnosed with hemorrhage in the brain!!!! Transferred him to UC for treatment and that was incorrect. Only natural causes calcium overgrowth of his skull. Not hemorrhaging!!!! This place is horrific—stay away
I would go to Christ, UC or practically ANY other medical facility.
This is only receiving 2 stars for cleanliness of the hospital and the care that I received from the EMTs that took me there.
Also, the ER doctor that first saw me for the injury that started this all, told me I couldn’t afford wound care, gave me ointment, gauze and sent me home.
I felt cared for in every way. Clean facility, good lighting, comfortable beds, kind staff, quality surgeon.
My friends visited and had comfortable places to sit.
The private room was also so nice. My favorite feature was the television station with slow moving pictures of nature. It is how I got through the first painful night. Genius idea to have that for patients in recovery.
I had my son here in 2014 and had a wonderful experience. I just delivered my second child there this past weekend and my experience was not pleasant. I would rate the actual labor and delivery experience with 4 or 5 stars. The staff was excellent and took wonderful care of me during labor. Once I was moved to the recovery room, our experience went downhill. I was placed in a room that had bed bugs and it almost seemed like they put the blame on us. Once I informed the staff of the problem, we were moved to a labor and delivery room because the recovery rooms were full. The nurses that cared for me were very kind and helpful. Dawna was great and so helpful. She tried to move the discharge process along for me since we didn't feel comfortable staying there any longer. When we were moved to the labor and delivery room, it seemed like we were forgotten about. We were hardly checked on, our trash was not removed, etc. All because of a problem that was not our fault. I did not feel comfortable recovering, I had no sleep at all after delivering my daughter, we had to throw away all of our clothes and belongings that we brought to the hospital, in fear that we'd take bed bugs home with us. Some of the stuff we threw away was just purchased for the baby! Brand new and ruined because we were placed in a room that had not been properly cleaned and kept up. I understand that things happen, but the staff should have known if a room had bugs. The housekeeping staff must have not been doing their job properly. I am very upset with my experience and the belongings we lost due to this incident.
Then there were the doctors in Wound Care. Dr. Dahman is a rude and condescending jerk. He knew nothing about me, didn’t read my chart and came full throttle at me with all sorts of negative statements and accusations. Another wound care doctor told me, “stay off your feet, quit your job.” Like that was a frigging option??? What sort of delusional idiot says that to someone? Only one was ever decent to me and even he ended up sending me to a butcher (“a good friend” he called him) who botched my surgery and as a result, I now have PTSD.
In April 2015, I had an unanticipated ambulance ride to Mercy for abdominal pain. I arrived and was promptly attended to and given a CT Scan within the hour. Revealed a ruptured small intestine which required immediate surgery. By now it was late in the evening. I met the nurses and surgeon who were professional and helped my panic (I have never been to a hospital or surgery before). My surgery started at midnight. I spent five days in recovery. The nursing staff was excellent, particularly the middle of the night nurse who was gentle, kind, and understanding. I felt vulnerable and fragile yet never alone.
I would rather die on the cold, filthy pavement than EVER step foot into this place again. While the nurses are AMAZING beyond words, the doctors are seriously of questionable nature.
This hospital is no better than a band aid station. I'm not pleased with the care I received and wouldn't go back even if my life depended on it.
