    Uniontown Hospital - Dr also went on vacation when I was supposed to get stitches out without getting another Dr to cover his patient. And my hand got infected.

    TL;DR: If you have literally any other choice, (being seen by a toddler playing doctor, voodoo, old…read morefashioned bloodletting) do that instead. The long version: I'm writing this in real time as it happens. It's not good We live in West Virginia, but my Dad's cardiologist recommended this hospital because he said he could get the procedure done sooner. So, Dad scheduled his heart catheterization and went up Tuesday at around noon. A family friend took a day off work to take him to the hospital, and I was to go pick him up today. My wife also took off from work to stay with my mother, who is disabled and can't drive. He said he was experiencing pain after surgery, so the doc said he wanted an echo cardiogram. Dad assumed that he would get it yesterday evening. He didn't. So, he resigned himself to staying the night. I drove up today, 50 miles, arriving just after noon and still, no echo cardiogram. Got impatient and angry enough that my inner Karen came out. I went to the nurses station and started asking questions. Ridiculous. Nobody had answers. Nurse calls down to the ECG crew and they're gone for the day...at 3:00 in the afternoon. She texts the doctor multiple times and he will not answer. Dad did not see the doctor all day. He just lay in bed doing nothing, hooked up to a heart monitor, pulse ox, and BP monitor. Nurses occasionally checking on him telling him how great his vitals are. No ECG, no doctor, no tests of any kind. Every day costs Dad a $500 deductible to basically lay in a hotel bed with fancy telemetry. We're both getting angry. Earlier that day, a social worker came in and introduced herself and said if there's anything that we need, she's there for us, just page her from the front desk. So I did. They said, "She's on the phone, when she's free, we'll send her right back." Waited, waited, waited, nothing. I finally went out to the front office only to find out that she had left for the day. This whole thing feels like an intentional fleecing. No organization can have this much incompetency, all working together to prevent ANY sort of progress, can it? Surreal. We were both fuming. Then my wife called and told me the rain was turning to sleet. I decided that my only option was to give up and come home. So, I had to call off work for yet another day and will have to make the 50 mile drive again tomorrow. Tomorrow I'll know to start raising a fuss as soon as I get there. Let's total the damages...$1500 in deductibles, 200 miles on vehicles, three people taking off a total of 5 days off work...and Dad still isn't home yet as of this writing. They don't realize that their lack of urgency costs multiple people time and money and causes a ripple effect in their lives. Nor do they care! I don't understand how WVU Medicine lets this go on damaging their reputation. Shame on them. I thought all the bad reviews here were hyperbole. They're not. It's really that bad. Ignore this at your peril. You will NOT be happy here.

    Do not go to Uniontown Hospital and that he can help it that is if you want to pillow on blanket…read morehospital, cause this in the hospital to give them an emergency department, no pillow, no blanket then sheet with a pad under your butt, not very comfortable living in a thorough world country Uniontown Pennsylvania
