I would rate it zero stars if possible. on Halloween morning (around 12 am) I went in for severe constipation to the point where it was literally physically impossible to relieve myself.... had the immense pressure of stool stuck that needed out but couldn't get it out on my own. I could not stand or sit comfortably, couldn't pee properly due to how severe my backup was. I just wanted someone to help me in a controlled environment in case I were to tear something, or if I had needed manually disimpacted, etc, but all I got asked at triage was if it's happened before and if I had taken anything for it that night. I never got asked details about my diet like I see many others get asked, never got asked about any medications I may have been on, never got asked how bad the pain I was feeling was. Nothing. I got told I'd have to wait for people to get discharged so I would have a room with a bathroom and I got sent back to the waiting room where I had to lay on my side crying for 2 hours because like I said, I physically could not stand, or sit due to the pain. And during those 2 hours, not a single person got discharged, and not a single person in the waiting room got called back for a room. Constipation can be life threatening at times so for no one even caring to ask anything in depth about what was going on, this place is horrible and I'd rather suffer than ever come back here. Which is what I did, and am still doing. I tore my anus relieving myself once I got home, and it's still not back to normal, nor am I not constipated anymore. also keep in mind it takes a lot of physical pain for me to even agree to go to the ER. so yeah. it was horrible. Terrible staff. Do better.

I went in for chest pains, was triage right away and hooked up to all cardiac machines. However, 2 hrs later still no doctor. I disconnected and left. It was not busy, the waiting room had only security when I went in, multiple nurses at the station. I have no idea where the physicians were. Ridiculous to wait 2 hrs especially for chest pains.

The staff here took my daughter in and were very concerned, compassionate and sweet with her.
