I have seen several people I know including relatives come here for treatment and did not survive. When coming here to speak with staff I've noticed that between the nursing and supportive staff they're answers about loved ones are vague, and unclear and they spend too much time huddled laughing and talking about things unrelated to medical business. If you have a loved one in need of medical attention I highly recommend you take them elsewhere. If you have the ability transfer them to Atlanta, you will not get the needed help you need here, and that's my honest opinion...

My husband went to Piedmont North because he passed out at home and was very sick. When we arrived…read moreat the ER I kinda had doubts about it, but we needed to see a doctor quick. I will say that the ER was an ok experience. No issues there and they seemed to know what they were doing. They admitted my husband with pneumonia. When we got upstairs the day nurse and staff was amazing. Very nice and very helpful. Dr Riley that was assign to my husband seemed ok. The problems we had was that the night nurse was not very nice. We called a nurse to come in and help my husband up to go to the bathroom, waited quite sometime. Then I decided I would help him myself since no one was coming.( I had been helping him all day) and the night nurse came in fussing at me telling me I could not get him out of bed. If she had come in to do her job I wouldn't have to do it for her !! Also, they did not bring my husband any dinner that night I asked the night nurse if she could get him a tray and she said no they have quit serving. I said so what does he do, starve? She said I can get him a sandwich tray. She brought in a plastic container full of carbs. I said he can't eat this he's a diabetic. My husband had no food that night to eat. I asked to talk to the person in charge. After about an hour this lady showed up and she pretty much could have cared less if he ate or not. That's an area that needs working on. Very dissatisfied with the night crew of this hospital!! Next time I'll pick another facility!! Piedmont can do better!!!

I saw Dr Grahl at 10:50 on Wednesday, May 15 for chronic pain in my shoulder and lower back. Nurse…read moreexplained they couldn't examine both due to insurance regulations, so I choose my upper shoulder as it was causing most pain. I bought all my radiology reports and scans taken the prior week. Dr Grahl has additional X-ray taken. X-ray report did not show anything so Dr order blood test. After blood test nurse I was free to go but to make an appointment for my shoulder. Appointment was for Monday May 20. Dr Grahl never examine my shoulder. Has he bothered to do so he would have seen it was swollen. All he did was read the X-ray. He never touched me. Is this what patient care is about now. I asked if he can give me an injection or something for my pain. He said come back Monday. I was I such pain when I left. I could barely make it home. I had to go to Urgent Care the following day and they saw the inflammation immediately and prescribed Methylprednisolone 6 day pack as well as giving me an injection. Dr didn't care enough to do anything to relieve my pain. I will not go back. And these are what Specialists have come to.

I recently had to have surgery for some hernia repairs. I was dubious about being hospitalized due…read moreto the virus situation. I went to the emergency room at Coliseum MC and was admitted that night and the surgery done a day later. There is no way anyone can say that being hospitalised and having surgery was an enjoyable experience. At least not in my opinion. But the doctors and staff at Coliseum medical centre made this at the very least a very comfortable stay and I felt very safe as far as the virus was concerned. I was on the 5th floor. The nurses, the phlebotomists and the entire staff on the 5th floor are nothing short outstanding. The hospitalists and the entire medical entourage were very professional, competent, and attentive with regular visits, inquiries and updates before and after surgery. The surgery was performed with robotic assist by Dr. John Thomas Williams. I am looking forward to my final visit with him so I can personally thank him for his excellence. I am 73 years old and I've had 3 other laparoscopic surgeries without the benefit of the robotic assist. This stuff is nothing short of amazing in regards to the amount of pain after surgery. From a medical viewpoint we are living in the "good old days". Being hospitalized and having surgery could never be called fun. But, the attention rendered by Coliseum Medical Center, to my comfort, concerns, and condition were all attended to with excellence.

April 20, 2016: 17 year old patient ACQUIRED two forms of RESISTANT BACTERIA (Serratia Marcescens - a U.S. Navy Biological Weapon AND Staph) DURING SHOULDER SURGERY at Macon Coliseum N.S. Hospital. Patient began running a high fever (up to 103.6) within 36 hours of surgery. Patient was taken to Macon Coliseum N.S. Emergency Room due to horrific shoulder pain at the surgery site and a high fever where the ER nurse made an error while administering his IV. The ER Nurse then proceeded to administer a dose of morphine underneath the patient's skin which allowed the patient to remain in agony for an extended length of time. The ER Nurse finally administered a second IV dose of morphine (again, underneath the patient's skin), turned out the light in the patient's room and instructed the patient to calm down due to his extremely elevated blood pressure. She left the patient. The patient suffered until a SECOND ER nurse checked on him and noticed the large lump of morphine underneath the patient's skin. Nurse 2 corrected the IV error and administered a 3rd dose of morphine which gave the patient some relief. The ER physician ordered a dose of intravenous Bactrim antibiotics and released the patient without obtaining a tissue sample from the surgery site. Several days later the patient was hospitalized for 8 days at Navicent Health for a resistant bacterial infection & emergency shoulder surgery was performed in order to cut out the bacterial infection from the patient's muscle tissue. The patient was treated by Infectious Disease and discharged with a PICC Line to continue two IV Antibiotic treatments - Rocephin & Vancomycin for 6 weeks. Several weeks later, the patient was rushed to the local ER with excruciating abdominal pains, hospitalized for 3 days in order to perform emergency gallbladder removal surgery, bile duct surgery and a biopsy that confirmed liver damage CAUSED BY THE SUPER ANTIBIOTICS. Lab tests confirmed damage was consistent with the use of Rocephin & Vancomycin IV antibiotics. The 17 year old patient will now struggle for the rest of his life with a 30% mobility in his dominant right arm due to inadequate healthcare services in addition to organ loss/damage. Macon Coliseum N.S. was one of many Georgia hospitals being penalized by the Federal Government for a HIGH RATE OF INFECTIONS which patient's are not made aware of when they elect to have surgery at a high infection facility.

But finally when tests were done and we found out he needed emergency surgery it got a little better but we still had to wait hours til it was done. I am thankful to TMH that he used Dr. Glenn and Dr. H to complete a successful surgery and provide quality post surgery care. Now the pediatric staff deserve much praise as well for their kindness and patience. Shout out to Emily, Anna, Melanie, Megan, Madison, Kayla, Yuti, Ms. Christie, Ms. Sharon, Adrian and all of the other staff whose names I can't remember but whose presence is not forgotten. Yall made a terrifying experience a thankful one. It surely was a memorable birthday for him and we are so thankful I didn't take him to Piedmont. May TMH continue to keep and bless you all and your households! ​

They kept me informed of any updates eveey few hours I called and sent pictures on the EASE app so that I could see her everyday since I live 2 hours away and couldn't be there everyday. The doctors and nurses worked hard and diligently to take the best care of my baby as they could and to make sure she was well enough to come home. The last night of her stay before her discharge I was able to stay in the nesting room with her and the nurses checked on her and I regularly to make sure we had everything we needed. This hospital provides the best quality care possible.
