    Mel W.

    Visited this hospital for the first time today for a routine procedure. Upon arrival I had about 5 minutes until my appointment began when I noticed a designated parking spot for veterans, this saved me some time (because general parking was quite full). I thought that it was nice that they offer a few parking spaces for veterans. This place ran like a well oiled machine. I entered the door, completed the Covid questionnaire, then I was directed to the registration desk, where I checked in for my appointment. After checking in, the woman working In registration walked me down the hall and showed me to the out patient waiting room. I literally waited 30 seconds before someone came out to get me so that I could begin my appointment. Once my appointment began they explained what they would be doing during the procedure in detail, even though I was familiar with the procedure I like that they took the time to explain it I appreciated my appointment starting on time and the fact that everything seemed organized.

    SAVE YOUR MONEY AND GO TO TRIDENT. At roper, I went in for irregular heartbeats which I shared I have had before and is likely connected to my anxiety disorder. They didn't listen to any of my past medical history. I mentioned at the front that I have insurance but not much money and was worried about how much it costs. They did not think that would be a problem since I am insured, but oh boy was that wrong. They charged me almost 10,000 for EKGs and bloodwork. That's all. With no conclusion. You'll see the listed receipts in this review and now I've received additional ones for $1,600. They only care about money. The simple bloodwork they did run, they didn't run it by me or tell me they charge $275 for pregnancy test. I've called and been transferred to over 23 individuals for 5 months now. They tell me I can't argue having had things done even though they did not ask for my consent and are way out of market. They charged me multiple times for certain tests. Absolutely dissatisfied. Will make the drive to Trident everytime even though roper is 0.2 miles from me.

    With 3 kids who live in Summerville, I spend far too much time in here than my health insurance and…read moremy wallet would prefer. In the last two years, my oldest son broke a wrist and had to come in for a concussion protocol (two separate incidents!), he needed some stomach issues checked out, and last night my youngest son had to come in for a broken arm. Dr. Klein and Dr. Howard, Nurse Chloe, and a few other folks who I didn't catch their names were all awesome last night. Despite being a bit short handed, my son was seen extremely fast and received outstanding treatment. I truly appreciate that Dr. Klein took the extra effort to consult with MUSC, it was a bad break, and it turned out that transferring him there was the right move, they needed to do a pretty intense amount of work to get his arm right. Each time I've been to Summerville Medical Center, I felt things went well, paperwork was minimal, and wait was short. While I never want to come here again, I'm sure I will, and I'm grateful and appreciative to the hardworking team who always manage to get my kids right. J.Ja

    Summerville Medical Center is conveniently located on the corner of Burton Ave and Midland parkway…read morein a very safe area of town. Parking is plentiful, max distance from parking to many different entrances isn't far and there are many satellite medical buildings around the main facility to accommodate other needs. Walking into the ER portion of the facility is extremely clean as with any reputable hospital, there are screens with patient queue and rooms where they may reside (I can't remember which to be honest). I will also state I've been in a LOT of hospitals with past issues including the world renown Cleveland Clinic so I have experience that spans a large spectrum. Checkout is relatively painless and quick while there was only 1 receptionist at 5pm on a Thursday during flu season. I suspect they have more staff during busier hours but I can't speak to that. That said when your number is finally called and the nurses are quick to get vitals and if a room is available, get the patient situated. This process took roughly 1.5 hours for us to get into a room and another hour for a doctor. It's my belief they were short staffed as things seemed to be running a little slow. The nurses were good at their jobs, as they were able to hit my mom's veins with ease and get some fluids going. Moreover since she's on record, they made sure not to give her anything she was allergic to while also noting her various alignments such as high blood pressure. I must say, please be kind to these nurses as they have a lot of patience thus they're doing the best and again I think they're short staffed. As for the doctor when he showed up, he appeared very intelligent and was able to assist with the previously conducted tests giving him a good idea of what was wrong. Now, I also believe that there's a priority so if someone has a life threating condition the doctor will be with them before lesser issues as this is just logical. That said I left with confidence the doctor had accurately assessed the situation and gave us our needed solution. Going to the hospital isn't a fun endeavor and unfortunately on occasion a necessary one. I've heard stories of long lines however that wasn't my experience. Aside from being slightly slow everything seemed to run as smoothly as one could reasonably anticipate. If you find yourself having to visit this facility, I believe you'll be in good hands.

    MEDICAL BILLING FRAUD…read more Charged $388 for a standard annual well-woman exam that should've been free. I had to pay $388 out-of-pocket to avoid the bill (that I should never have received) going to collections. MUSC said I should be reimbursed eventually, but over a month has gone by. According to my health insurance company, MUSC has not taken any action to resolve the issue. Fraudulent billing. PSA: All women with health insurance are entitled to free annual well-woman exams under the Affordable Care Act. The exam needs to be billed correctly as preventative care.

Some healthcare facilities here clearly just push patients through and you barely get 5 minutes of the doctor's time. You won't get that at Carnes Crossroads Primary Care, or any MUSC facility for that matter. Dr. Bigelow was highly recommended to us. He has very good bedside manner and I appreciate that he actually takes the time to listen to what is going on. Plus the MUSC MyChart app is very useful for tracking test results and for communicating with your healthcare team. The only problem that I have is that everyone else in the area must be going here too because it's near impossible to get a same day appointment. I was told if you are sick you can almost always get an appointment same or next day, but I'm not sure how accurate that is. For example, my son has a possible infection and called 8am Monday morning to schedule an appointment and the earliest they could see him was Wednesday at 4pm. So it's kind of a catch 22: you'll great health care here but only if they have the time to see you. Even with that, I highly recommend going here.

    FIRST OFF, RESIDENT DOCTOR JESSICA KRANDAL TOLD MY MOM WHILE SHE WAS IN THE HOSPITAL TO JUST DIE,…read moreNO ONE WANTS HER ALIVE!!!!! MY MOM TOLD ME THIS OUT HER OWN MOUTH. THEN SHE TELLS MY MOM'S FIANCE HE CAN STOP COMING TO THE HOSPITAL BECAUSE MY MOM ISN'T MAKING IT OUT THERE ALIVE. HERE'S THE STORY BEHIND ALL THIS. I will start off with the latest occurrence when my mother died. My mom was diagnosed with double pneumonia (both lungs) back in July 2024. She went to Trident and they treated her. They sent her home a week later. The nurse that came by her home checked her hemoglobin levels and it was at a 0 a few days later. She told my mom to rush to the hospital asap or she could die shortly. Since she lived about a mile from Trident she went back. She kept complaining about the IV they gave her in her arm. She said the IV kept hurting. Apparently, they put the needle in her arm, into the bone. I have attached a photo of how bruised her arm was when they finally removed the IV the next day, and many calls to the nurse. After about two weeks, they sent her home. None of us knowing , they never cured the pneumonia. One day at home she said she couldn't breathe, so she went to Roper in Summerville, they moved her to the downtown Charleston location. She stayed there for about a week. They sent her to rehab to get her strength back for walking. While at rehab she started having chest issues, and they sent her back to Trident. While there, they said the pneumonia was not getting better, or worse, it was stagnant. We thought they got rid of the pneumonia this whole time. One day she would do good, the next day she would do bad. They put her in ICU and called us and told us to come see her because she only has hours to live. We had the whole family there to see her. The next day, she was laughing and talking. Another doctor we haven't seen before said she has about 48% lung capacity left, due to COPD and Emphysema, and of course, the pneumonia. He said his goal was to have her breathing on her own so he put her on a nasal tube to have her breathing. She would talk to us and use her phone. The next morning, we get another call from a different person stating she isn't doing well and she will likely pass that day. We went to see her and stayed with her for hours. For two days she was on the mask to help her breathe. The next day, she was back on the nasal tube. Laughing and trying to talk, but her voice was weak. We kept getting calls in the mornings saying she isn't doing well, but the night time, she would do well. We couldn't understand it. One doctor said she is moving in the right direction, and the other doctor would say the opposite. One day while I was there visiting my mom a resident Dr. named Jessica Krandal came in. She was staring at my mom weirdly. I didn't understand why. A day or two later my mom tells me the Resident Dr. Jessica Krandal told her to, "just die, no one wants her alive!" We told the nursing station about the situation and they said they would not allow her back in my mom's room, and contact her boss. A day later, she's back in the room, telling my mom's fiance that my mom is not getting out the hospital alive and he can stop coming. The day of my mom's passing, a few days later, the doctor calls me on the phone and tells me to come down there because she's not doing well. Then she proceeds to put Jessica Krandal on the phone, after all this, they put her on the phone. This was a slap in the face. ....another incident involving my then 16-years-old son. He woke us up at 4am saying he can't breathe. We sent him back to bed and again, he woke us back up, saying he can't breathe. We took him to Trident, and they said he has anxiety. My wife argued about what does he have to cause that much anxiety. They did a test on him and found out his heart was beating irregularly. They rushed him to MUSC where he was diagnosed with myocarditis. Please, avoid this place if possible.

    Having to deal with a hospital, a LOT more often than not will evoke a feeling of anxiety or worse…read more That's why it's important to know up front the type of care and facilities are abundant and their reputation. For the record, I've had to deal with hospitals in six states for 13 surgeries, 10 procedures, 8 ER visits as well as having to attend to family members who were in critical or relatively bad condition so I have a pretty large sample size to draw comparisons. That leads me to this review for Trident Medical Center which isn't very good. I'll be factual and leave emotion out of the review as it's important to be fair and balanced. First off when I drove to visit my family, there was a huge pothole in the main road leading up to the hospital. It took weeks to fix and when I asked the nurses about that and they giggled as if it's an ongoing joke. It has since been repaired but it gives pause that a hazard at a hospital isn't repaired in expedited fashion. One of my loved ones was transferred from their satellite facilities to this one located on Medical Plaza during an emergency situation. The records and/or information either wasn't fully documented or properly received thus slowing down the treatment at the main center. I'm very disturbed how the first hospitals findings can summarily be waved in favor of restarting the root cause efforts of a critical patient. Next the doctors without consulting my mother called in a specialist doctor for more input. The next of kin are required to be consulted when bringing in other medical professionals. Moreover, this doctor only reinforced what the initial satellite facility had originally suggested. I completely understand the effort to give fast and quality care however if an initial doctor makes a diagnosis based on tests why redo the same efforts? As for the nurses they were great in almost all aspects of their respective jobs. They gave us good communication, were accurate with their needles (trust me, I've had really bad experiences will less than stellar nurses) and attentive to the patient. As for their demeanor they were pleasant but worked with efficiency to ensure the comfort of the patient. There is one small issue as another loved one had a do not resuscitate order and this was made clear in the paperwork and my brother. The acting staff then encouraged my family to keep him alive "and all he had to live for." The severity of the situation dictated otherwise; thus these needless conversations only make the process inconvenient for the family and prolong the patients suffering as care was and wasn't administered until this was resolved in the eyes of the hospital. Finally, I'm not sure who cleans the hospital as every time I've stayed at a hospital, the rooms are cleaned daily. This hospital wasn't and I'm not sure why. Therefore, my mother would often clean the room while she remained with my dad. As far as records are concerned, there is a level of deceit that is being practiced here. After my father died, in accordance to law, copies of the records are to be handed over to the next of kin, spouse, etc. For more than 2 years Trident has refused to hand over any info stating the records now have to be filed with a judge. This leads one to suspect there were issues that they don't want the us to know about. Overall, my two prolonged experiences at this hospital were less than stellar when compared to, well any other hospital. Doctors tread over each other's test results, they aren't quick to release records of a patients stay, the upkeep both outside and inside the hospital isn't a high priority and a family's desires aren't always considered. If one is to have a choice, I would advise continue looking however in the unfortunate situation should arise and this hospital is where you end up, make sure you have informed loved ones taking charge on your behalf. While I don't believe the doctor and staff are incompetent, they don't inspire enthusiasm.

I went to another local doctor, and within a minute of looking at me, I was rushed to the hospital due to orbital cellulitis. I was one day away from this infection spreading to my brain, and had to stay at the hospital on IV antibiotics. This wasn't my first time at MEDcare. Every time I've been it feels like I'm an inconvenience and they get you out as quickly as they possibly can, even if it means being misdiagnosed or overlooked. Save yourself some pain (pun intended) and go somewhere else that actually wants you to get better. This place should be shutdown for malpractice.

    My family's experience during pregnancy care and delivery here was deeply mixed. There were…read moreindividual caregivers who were exceptional, but the overall system and process left us disappointed and, frankly, shaken. During high-risk screenings, we raised specific concerns about potential complications. Rather than feeling heard and evaluated in a focused way, the process felt standardized and procedural. We were given strong reassurance that certain conditions were not present, only to discover immediately after birth that one of those exact conditions was, in fact, present. Communication during follow-up screenings was also confusing. Important findings were shared casually and without context. We were moved through additional monitoring without clear explanation of what was being evaluated, what the risks were, or why certain decisions were being made. The experience felt checklist-driven rather than patient-centered. After delivery, the lack of coordination and condition-specific knowledge became more concerning. We received confident assurances about feeding and care approaches that later proved unrealistic given our child's medical needs. Some staff were clearly trying their best, but others spoke with certainty about issues they did not fully understand. Our newborn was handled and examined at times without meaningful explanation or discussion. For a family navigating unexpected medical complexity, that lack of clarity adds unnecessary stress. There were also smaller but telling process issues. For example, the hospital seemed unprepared to accommodate a vegetarian diet. Food orders were repeatedly incorrect despite clear communication about dietary preferences. While this may seem minor compared to medical care, it reflects broader coordination and communication gaps that were noticeable throughout our stay. That said, I want to clearly recognize the caregivers who made a meaningful difference. Emma, Lauren, Melisa, Susana, Suzi, Emily, Holly, Riley, and Jenn were compassionate, patient, and professional during an incredibly vulnerable time for our family. They treated us with dignity, listened to our concerns, and approached our baby with gentleness and care. Their empathy and steadiness did not go unnoticed. Kerstin, the occupational therapist who worked with us on feeding challenges, was exceptional. She was knowledgeable, calm, and deeply invested in helping us navigate a complex situation. She listened carefully, adjusted her approach thoughtfully, and demonstrated humility and genuine curiosity. That mindset made a profound difference in our experience and reflects what patient-centered care should look like. What ultimately left a lasting impression was not a lack of technology or medical capability, but what felt like a systemic process issue. Too often, the experience felt driven by routine protocols rather than individualized listening and critical thinking. When hospitals rely heavily on standardized workflows without tailoring them to patient concerns, families can feel unheard and underserved. There are clearly compassionate professionals working here, and several of them had a very positive impact on us. However, the broader communication and coordination gaps significantly affected our trust. I hope this feedback is received constructively and used to improve transparency, individualized care, and condition-specific preparedness for future families navigating high-risk pregnancies and unexpected diagnoses.
