Then the male doctor came and apologized after almost 6 hours .I think he was highly unprofessional came in the room and did not speak him or the nurse.Just to come back to say it's gonna be another 2 hours before she can have surgery so we waited look like over 8-9 hours before she even went to surgery. That is not acceptable and I think he thought that it was okay because they think they can do whatever you have options use them. They prepped her only to sit up for 11 hours waiting on surgery. And the doctor's assistant was named Caroline. She was rude unprofessional. She practically kicked me out of recovery room and gave me a green card. Didn't explain anything. People like you won't have any good luck and you have no business dealing with people with sequences or illnesses of any kind. Shame on you. Shame on this hospital. Y'all should have a better procedure than to make people wait for 11 hours for a 30-minute surgery. My daughter wasn't a priority

I would not even take my dog to that god forsaken place and I hope they all choke. Disgusting excuses of human beings. My advice if you go- get used to being a number because they don't see you as a human being. And I hope the doctor gets exactly what he deserves in life. What goes around usually comes around and nobody can get away with acting like that for long. To hell with UMMC!!!!

There is no clear marking or signage, inside the building when you walk in on the main level, which level the walk-in clinic is on. As an FYI, it's located on the lower level. I asked someone who worked in the building, what floor the clinic was located on and they told me the fifth floor. I take the elevator to the fifth floor and sign in and the receptionist is looking perplexed. I was asked did I have an appointment. I told her no and that I was told I didn't need an appointment for the walk-in clinic. She then tells me to go down the hall, to another elevator bank, take the elevator to the lower level and that's how you access the walk in clinic. I get to the receptionist at the actual walk in clinic and she asked me did I have an appointment. I told her that I did not and that I had spoken with someone on the phone who said I didn't need an appointment for this particular location at that particular time. She then tells me because they all of a sudden got crowded, that the next available appointment was two hours after the time that I arrive and that they weren't taking walk-ins. I told her this is not information that was given to me less than 15 minutes prior to me arriving. When I looked around the waiting room, there were two other people in the waiting room. She then asks would I like to fill out my paperwork since I was already there. I told her that I would and I did. I was seen by a nurse practitioner in a decent amount of time and I didn't have to stay for two hours. Why the two stars: Because what I was told on the phone and what I was told when I arrived were two different things and it was less than 15 minutes between the two. The receptionist was not exactly the most customer friendly person in the world. Within 12 hours of me going, I developed congestion after my initial with diagnosis and was refused a prescription for Mucinex D. Due to the backwards laws of Mississippi, you have to have a doctors prescription for medicines that contain pseudoephedrine due to the math addiction problem that everyone is having. Lastly, I give Baptist credit for having a clinic that you don't need an appointment for, but I would be mindful and cautious that if they do get busy, you will need an appointment and would just go ahead and call and make one, just to cover all of your bases.

I am extremely disappointed with the care I received in the Emergency Department at St. Dominic…read moreHospital. I was sent directly to the emergency room by a clinic after being told I had a corneal abrasion, a suspected corneal ulcer, and a swollen eye. The clinic was concerned enough about my condition to send me to the emergency department for further evaluation. Upon arrival, I had to wait over three hours before I was taken to the back but then placed on a gurney in the hallway and told that I would be treated there because my condition was not considered an emergency. I was especially displeased to be the only patient treated in a high-traffic hallway where people continuously passed by, stared, and went on with their day, which made me feel exposed and uncomfortable during an already painful and stressful situation. All other patients were placed in rooms while I was awaiting treatment in the hall. They had the unmitigated gall to write in a marker a room number and taped it on the wall by my gurney with my wristband informauto. taped on the wall as well. I felt degraded and uncared for at the same time. I arrived around 5:00 p.m. and waited for hours without being examined by a physician or other provider. During that time, my symptoms became progressively worse. I repeatedly informed the nursing staff that I was experiencing severe eye pain, extreme sensitivity to light, increasing swelling, and worsening symptoms. Despite expressing my concerns and fear that my vision could be affected, no one came to reassess me or explain the plan for my care. After six hours, I still had no relief from my symptoms. Eventually, I was told that there was no ophthalmologist on call. While I understand that not every hospital has an eye specialist available at all times, I expected someone to examine my eye, explain the next steps, or discuss whether a consultation or transfer to another facility was necessary. Instead, I remained in the hallway feeling overlooked, frightened, and uncertain about whether my condition was being taken seriously. The most disappointing part of my experience was not simply the wait--it was the lack of communication, compassion, and follow-up. Being left in severe pain with worsening symptoms and no meaningful updates made me feel as though my concerns did not matter. Patients deserve to be treated with dignity, kept informed about their care, and reassessed when their condition changes. when the doctor did show up, she treated me, but gave me no insight for a referral. I hope St. Dominic Hospital reviews its emergency department processes, particularly regarding communication with patients, timely reassessment of worsening conditions, and ensuring that patients understand the plan for their care when specialty services are unavailable. No patient who is worried about losing their vision should feel forgotten while waiting for treatment. I sincerely hope my experience leads to improvements so that future patients receive the attentive, compassionate, and timely care they deserve. Sincerely, Shiquita M. Williams

I rarely leave reviews, but after my mother's recent stay, I feel compelled to share our…read moreexperience. From the beginning, there were serious concerns about her care. On May 5, she was in visible distress--crying and shaking from IV pain--yet her discomfort was not addressed with urgency. Instead of removing the painful IV when requested, a nurse proceeded to place another one while she was still in pain. The same nurse also rushed her through discharge paperwork without ensuring she understood what she was signing, which felt dismissive and inappropriate. Medication management was another major issue. At discharge, medications that had already been discontinued were still listed and even administered. The discharge paperwork contained inaccurate information, which could have led to serious harm if my mother hadn't caught it herself. This points to breakdowns in communication and patient safety protocols. When I asked to speak with a patient advocate, the situation was escalated unnecessarily instead of being handled appropriately. It did not seem like staff were prepared to respond to patient concerns in a supportive or informed way. What was especially troubling was overhearing staff refuse to assist another elderly patient who needed help using the bathroom, leaving them in an unacceptable condition. Witnessing that contributed to our growing concern about the level of care being provided. We also had issues with discharge planning. Despite ongoing symptoms, our request for an additional night of observation was denied. Prescriptions were sent to a pharmacy two hours away instead of the hospital pharmacy as requested, creating unnecessary stress at discharge. Basic care needs were difficult to meet throughout the stay. Assistance with bathing was delayed, and we often had to request cleaning for the bathroom. The environment did not feel consistently maintained, and the layout made it difficult for someone with mobility challenges to use safely. Case management support was also lacking. When we asked for help with medical equipment and supplies, we were told to coordinate everything ourselves. The response felt dismissive and did not reflect the level of support we expected during discharge planning. Overall, this experience resulted in a complete loss of confidence in the facility. My mother now feels unsafe returning due to concerns about communication, care quality, and patient safety. I hope this feedback leads to meaningful improvements, because no patient or family should have to go through an experience like this.
