I had a very concerning experience at East Cooper Medical Center in Mount Pleasant involving a…read morenurse who identified herself as Wendy. My cousin, a Puerto Rican American, came to the ER with severe abdominal/side/back pain and was visibly crying and in significant distress. She called me earlier that evening crying and asking for help. When I arrived at approximately 11:00 PM, I personally observed that she was still in severe pain and distress. What concerns me most is that it was not until after I arrived, spoke with the nursing staff, and requested that another nurse assist my cousin that she received medication from a different nurse. After that nurse, Nicki, administered the medication, I personally watched my cousin finally begin to get relief. She was able to sit up, talk to me, and most importantly, she was no longer crying and visibly suffering from the severe pain she had been experiencing. That made the earlier lack of relief especially concerning to me. I had also requested that Wendy no longer care for my cousin because my cousin had become uncomfortable with the way she was being treated. Despite that request, Wendy returned to the room. My cousin was asking reasonable questions about how long she would have to wait for her ultrasound. She was already extremely anxious and began visibly shaking. Instead of helping calm the situation, Wendy told her to "stop acting like a child and start acting like an adult." I found that completely inappropriate toward a patient who was already experiencing severe pain and distress. I was also concerned that medication was brought into the room without a clear explanation of what it was before my cousin took it. I believe patients should be clearly informed about medications they are being given. Eventually, another nurse came into the room and treated my cousin with kindness and professionalism. That nurse even apologized for what had happened earlier. The contrast between the two interactions was significant. To be clear, my concern is not simply that the ER could not immediately determine the cause of my cousin's pain. We understand that emergency medicine involves testing and uncertainty. My concern is how my cousin was treated while she was seeking care and particularly the fact that she remained in severe distress until after I intervened and another nurse provided medication, after which I personally witnessed a significant improvement in her condition. We are still waiting to submit a formal complaint to ask the hospital to review the entire encounter, including the medication administration record, nursing documentation, and staff conduct. If you visit this ER, advocate for yourself, ask questions about medications before taking them, and bring someone you trust with you if possible. Patients deserve to be treated with dignity, compassion, and respect when they are at their most vulnerable.

had an absolutely disturbing experience at Summerville Medical Center, particularly with…read morehospitalist Dr. Smith, whose treatment of me as a patient was unacceptable. After two ER visits where I was incorrectly diagnosed with a UTI, I was finally diagnosed with a 5 mm kidney stone on my third visit. The ER doctor initially told me the stone could potentially pass on its own with Flomax. They admitted me due to extreme pain unable to be managed at home in addition to being unable to keep food or water down. However, at approximately 8 PM, a nurse suddenly informed me I was scheduled for surgery at 8 AM the next morning. Nobody had explained why the treatment plan changed or even what surgery I would be having. I repeatedly asked to speak with Dr. Smith (the hospitalist that was working overnight until the morning) that evening, but was told he refused to come speak with me. The following morning, I was abruptly awakened by approximately six staff members, including Dr. Smith, who announced they were taking me for surgery. I had never spoken to the urologist, never discussed my treatment options, and STILL DID NOT KNOW WHAT SURGERY I WAS SUPPOSED TO BE HAVING. I was told I could speak with the urologist, but that everything, including the surgery, would still take place within the next hour. When I expressed how uncomfortable I was with this, Dr. Smith angrily snapped, "Well, just discharge her then." He later made a snarky remark about this being my third hospital visit, insinuating that I was somehow a frequent flyer or an inconvenience. I found this particularly insulting considering I had returned repeatedly because I was in excruciating pain, vomiting, and had gone through two previous visits without my kidney stone being identified. I was also told that my kidney could essentially "blow up like a water balloon" if I did not undergo surgery. Yet when I finally spoke with the urologist, he explained that the proposed laser surgery with a stent was not his recommended approach. Instead, he recommended a less invasive outpatient shock-wave procedure and reassured me that my kidney was not going to explode. I was never refusing medical care. I was refusing to be pressured into a surgery without being informed of what was being done to my own body. The lack of communication, compassion, and basic respect was appalling. Dr. Smith's dismissive and hostile attitude made an already frightening medical situation significantly worse. No patient should be bullied, intimidated, or treated as an inconvenience simply for wanting to understand their medical options and participate in decisions about their own care.

After rearranging my work schedule and waiting all this time, the doctor told me he was "not comfortable" giving me an IUD because I have never had a baby. This is extremely frustrating considering the clinic had already agreed to the procedure when I booked the appointment. Nothing was accomplished today, and when I expressed my frustration, the staff didn't seem to understand why I was upset. I've been coming here for three years, but the doctor's reasoning was, "Well, I don't know you, so I'm not comfortable." He continued giving excuse after excuse rather than honoring my right to make decisions about my own body. After this experience, I would not recommend this office as a gynecologist.
