I went to Hillcrest ER for sever abdominal and back pain. I sat in the waiting room for about an hour before I was even evaluated by the nurse and got my braclet. I was then sent back to the waiting room, this is of corse regular procedure. I waited another 3 hours before being escorted to an open shared room that had 2 large curtains that stopped just bellow the top of the mattress. They felt on my abdomen, did a pelvic exam, and had me pee in a cup. They found nothing, sent me home with Rx for 3 days of antibiotics and some weak pain meds. I ended up back a week later with the same problems, but in worse pain. It's the hospital my doctor is based out of so I went, again. This time. I was in tears and couldn't stand up strait. I proceded to wait 2 1/2 hours, then was told I had 2 people ahead of me. They then came out and called 3 people back, 2 of which showed up an hour after I got there. I asked the nurse again, and was told I was 2nd in line. So I left, and will not go back there.

The care was fabulous. They forgot to clean my room though. Thank Goodness for Kamisha Walker. She is on third shift housekeeping once she found out that it was not being taken care of she didn’t over the top job and made sure it was taken care of there after.
