I have received prompt, courteous and professional care in both the clinic and the emergency room. Franklin County is fortunate to have the hospital.
Disgrace to the County
Nothing major there, but the lab and ER have helped my wife and I and have done a good job working efficiently and quickly.
I took my 3 toddlers in today. We were the only people there & still was there for 1 1/2hrs. We went because, my 4 yr old hurt her ankle. The doctor hardly looked at it. Said it was nothing & sent us on our way. I left with no more comfort than I came with!
I was forced to go there by paramedics. It was either that or no help. They refused to take me to my preferred hospital. I went in with severe head pain on one side only, pain in my neck, shoulder, and arm. Weakness on one side and numbness in left hand. Nurse started an iv, took blood, and I went for a CT. The tech there was very nice. Doctor came in, asked a few questions, left. Nurse came in, hooked up IV antibiotics (did not know, although I told him and the dr, that I had an allergy to certain antibiotics ) and gave me iv pain med and iv steroids. Pain med did nothing, I'm diabetic, steroids VERY bad for blood sugar. Dr said I had a sinus infection, even though I had not one symptom. He said weakness and such probably caused by a migraine. I've had migraines in the past and this was not that. He wrote me 2 scripts; one for steroids, one for antibiotics. I asked for a script for med to prevent yeast infections. I get one every time I take antibiotics. He refused. My blood pressure was elevated while in the ambulance. I was not on a monitor while in the ER. I did not have a call light. No one checked on me while the mess were infusing, in case I had a bad reaction. To call this hell hole a hospital is a joke. You'd be better off going to the local shaman or witch doctor!
