Only because zero is not available. Worst hospital in Phoenix!
In most hospitals people go to the ER because it is a genuine emergency. Because this is a teaching hospital many go to the ER for primary care. My wife went in at 830am Thursday complaining of kidney/back issues. We waited about 45 min as others came and went through triage before us even though they came in after us.
After asking the triage nurse what is going on they tell me that anyone that comes in complaining of chest issues automatically goes to the front of the triage line. Now it is fairly obvious that some of these chest issue patients are not having a heart attack. They are laughing and smiling and otherwise having a regular morning reading the paper. My wife is now in tears but we cannot get bumped to the front because it is kidney not chest.
We left and went to John C Lincoln on 2nd St & Dunlap. They saw her, got her into the ER in 35 min and it was quick.
If you value your life do not go to Phoenix Baptist. You might die waiting.
