| - My regular doctor had me taken here with an irregular heartbeat--I arrived in an ambulance. I then spent 8 hours on a gurney, waiting for a room becaue of a nurse shortage. After two days I hadnot seen a cardiologist. The second day, the cardiologist sent over his nurse practicioner. Wow! Could you spare her! The third day, my heart beat had stabilized, but Ihad to wait 2 hours to be discharged for the big cheese cardiologist himself, who had not bothered to drop in, to see me so I could leave. He was a slick hustler with dyed hair who called me "young lady" (he is not a young man himself) and talked to me for two minutes. Ugh. Id never go to this hospital again. A summary: one of the nurses got into an argument with a heart patient , with her voice raised, over how long people
have to wait in emergency rooms. I froze all night, and am covered with bruises from their inept staff taking blood. Dr. Noori, an internist, was a gentleman and a good doc--hope he finds work elsewhere. The idea of a cardiologist being too busy to see a patient and sending a frickin nurse instead, still makes my blood boil--avoid this place unless you are half-dead.
