Sam is fast, plus I see him running to many other rooms. We need more with his work ethic. Whatever you pay him isn't enough! Thank you, Sam, for always coming to my aide.

I am extremely disappointed with the way I have been treated during my stay at Sanford. I have…read moredealt with multiple staff members, but my experience with my most recent nurse was by far one of the worst interactions I have ever had with a healthcare professional. Her attitude toward me was rude, argumentative, condescending, and completely unnecessary. She repeatedly asked me the same questions phrased in different ways, and when I became frustrated with the questioning, she actually responded by telling me that she "went to four years of school." I could not believe a nurse was speaking to a patient that way. I responded that I have five years of college education myself because I genuinely could not understand why her education was even being brought into the conversation. Am I a patient receiving medical care, or are we comparing educational backgrounds? There was also an unnecessary argument regarding my blood pressure. My blood pressure had already been taken on my forearm during this same hospitalization, including after a low reading, yet she argued with me about using my forearm. When another reading was taken, I was only told it was "a little better" rather than simply being told what my actual blood pressure was. This is MY medical information. I should not have to argue with a nurse to be informed about something as basic as my own vital signs. To make the experience even more frustrating, I was awakened around 6:00 a.m. to have my blood pressure taken and then questioned about information that should have been addressed when I was admitted approximately 48 hours earlier. Patients in the hospital need rest. If information was missed during admission, that should not result in a patient being awakened two days later and then treated with hostility for questioning why the same things are being asked repeatedly. I understand that nurses have difficult and demanding jobs. That does not give anyone permission to belittle, argue with, or speak condescendingly to a patient. I have never experienced a nurse treating me this way before. Being hospitalized already puts a person in an incredibly vulnerable position. The last thing a patient should have to deal with is feeling antagonized by the person responsible for their care. This experience has been bad enough that, if I had a realistic choice, I would move my care elsewhere. I have already chosen Essentia for care where I have that option. Unfortunately, for reproductive endocrinology and certain specialized services in this area, Sanford is effectively the only practical option available to me. It is incredibly frustrating to feel forced to continue using a healthcare system after being treated this way simply because there is little or no meaningful local alternative for the specialty care I need. Sanford needs to seriously address how some members of its nursing staff communicate with patients. Patients should not feel trapped between accepting disrespectful treatment and losing access to specialized medical care. I expect basic professionalism, respect, and transparency regarding my own medical care. What I experienced during this hospitalization fell far below that standard.

I also understand triage in any emergency-vet emergency hospital or human ER. It's so hard to wait. That said, here were the things we were grateful for and knew they did a good job; reminded us it is triage. Listened intently and asked questions. Answered questions we had. Gave us an estimate and explanation of tests, scans, bloodwork, etc., and would let us know when we were nearing the top of that estimate so there were no surprises and always our choice on what to do next. Two different veterinarians worked on Luna's case. I would receive calls from them regarding their latest findings. I want to thank them. But I also especially want to thank the techs who also helped keep her as comfortable as hissy and miserable feeling cat could possibly be made. At the end of this mysterious battle of not knowing what on earth made her so sick, and ruling out every possible thing we could, we all did our best and worked together. And she made it through- which of course was our concern. Yep, we brought her there two times within the week. Yes, she had to wait one of those times to be seen by a veterinarian because other more emergent cases came in. It was hard knowing that because she's ours. But they kept monitoring her even during that time. The only small gripe I had was one older woman at the front who seemed impatient and kind of cold. But I ignored that as I figured she could have had a rough day. However, I hope she realizes the impact that can have on others, bad day or not- because our bad day is taking our pets in and being scared out of our minds we will lose them. Take a breath on a break and realize the positive impact she could make. Thanks for saving Luna. Thanks for the compassion-even though you see so many people's fur family members-you still understood each one is important to each family. It meant a lot. Keep doing that.

I should have been told earlier by a technician how bad or not bad my dog's wounds were. Obviously, in their opinion treatment could wait. If I had known stitching could wait till next day, I could have taken my dog to my vet today and gotten faster, and less expensive service charge. It is now 11:30am no word yet.
