I recently visited My ER with my 3-year-old son while out of town visiting family after he sustained a fracture to his arm while playing. Unfortunately, this was the worst healthcare experience I've ever encountered. To provide context, I've been in healthcare for 11 years, with 8 years as a NICU and pediatric nurse, and I now hold a Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP) degree. I understand the challenges of healthcare, especially in pediatrics, but the care we received fell far below acceptable standards. The visit started on a positive note. The medical assistant was kind, compassionate, and understanding, clearly experienced with children as he shared that he had three boys of his own. The x-ray technician was also kind and professional. However, the FNP who attended to my son did not perform an adequate assessment. She asked me to move my son's arm for her rather than conducting the exam herself. As a fellow FNP, I found this surprising--assessments are fundamental to providing care. The most traumatic part of the visit came when a nurse from the ER side arrived to apply a splint. She entered the room without introducing herself or explaining the procedure to me or my son. Instead of taking a moment to calm my scared and hurting child, she abruptly grabbed his arm. Naturally, my 3-year-old started screaming and resisting. As a former pediatric nurse, I know how important it is to communicate with children, explain what's happening, and even let them explore the materials to ease their fears. When my son resisted, she started yelling at him to stop moving and hold still. I intervened, reminding her that he was only 3 years old, hurt, and frightened. She then turned her yelling toward me, rudely telling me that he was "old enough to listen" multiple times. It was a deeply upsetting and traumatic situation for my son and me, and it escalated unnecessarily due to her behavior. To make matters worse, as we left the clinic, visibly shaken, the front desk staff showed no empathy or apology. Instead, when I confronted them about rolling their eyes and shaking their heads, they rudely responded, "How do you know what I'm shaking my head about?" This lack of professionalism and basic courtesy was appalling. It's clear this facility needs significant pediatric training if they intend to care for children. Medical staff must learn to communicate with both parents and children in a compassionate and professional manner. As of 12/3/2024, I strongly advise against bringing pediatric patients to My ER. If you are burned out in healthcare--whether as a nurse, receptionist, or office manager--it's time to find another path. Families seeking care deserve much better than what we experienced.

Update 5/16: Julie, the manger here, reached out to better explain their insurance process, which…read moreis confusing. She has resubmitted the claims as well as assuring us the staff would be better trained to explain the insurance process when a patient first comes in. Hopefully that will avoid future problems for others. I appreciate her kindness and help. This facility has separate insurance acceptance 495590 for urgent care or emergency care which I've never heard of. When I asked about this they assured me it's an old policy and they accept all insurance. They told my daughter the same thing. Her insurance just denied the claim for being out of network and the bill is 5k for a steroid shot and some prescriptions. She actually went in asking for urgent care, they decided to move her to ER "just in case" (?). The woman in billing will not call, and all you can do is leave a voicemail.

Dr. Johnson exceeded my expectations by a wide margin! I was so very impressed with how attentive she was and the questions she asked to thoroughly investigate my issue. I could recognize a genuine concern for my well-being and she took plenty of time with me to make sure she hadn't overlooked anything. When she started suggesting solutions I was blown away by the direction she took, because she was thinking outside the box and is so up to date on the latest medical trends. Overall, she made this first visit a pleasure and I feel very confident that I can always trust her to provide me with the best of care, yet with the personal touch that so many doctors are missing these days. Thank you, Dr. Johnson! You're awesome!

She went to rehab for two weeks all the while he was prescribing medication for her, but NO MRI. When she left rehab, she went to her lung doctor and told her the story. Her lung doctor could not believe he hadn't ordered an MRI yet. She ordered it and received the results...her FEMUR WAS BROKEN!! It has now healed incorrectly and she needs surgery to fix it, however, she cannot have surgery because of her health. She was bed ridden for a year thanks to this idiot. Going forward, she was scheduled to see a new doctor for two weeks, the morning of her appointment she was told she cannot see this new doctor because Dr. GAO has black listed her. If you value your health and your LIFE, I would NEVER see Dr. GAO. WOULD'T GIVE HIM ANY STARS, BUT ZERO STARS IT IS NOT AN OPTION.
