I had an appointment with a visiting nephrologist with which was changed from the original…read moreappointment. The problem is the receptionist didn't leave a message. I don't live in Ridgecrest so I called the number in spite of the fact it didn't mention it was a hospital number. I was told the Clinic was across the street from the hospital. I arrived on time to the Medical Office but all the doors were locked. There was a frail elderly man trying to gain access also. I called the number and told the receptionist I couldn't gain access to the building. She sarcastically said we have been seeing patients all day. I clarified the building was across the street from the Hospital and in front of the Marriott. I finally gave up and hung up on her. Someone else called back and gave an address of a street name I couldn't pronounce and certainly couldn't couldn't spell. She told me to put the address in my smart phone. I am a senior citizen and I can't see the screen of my phone in the sun. After driving over 2 hours to get to the appointment I just had to leave. This whole epic could have been avoided if they would have texted me an address and an appointment verification. The elderly man that was there also just left. Unbelievably poor patient service. I hope the Dr is aware the poor quality of the staff is preventing him from seeing patients

I've been a patient at SVDH a couple of times once for 5 days and found the staff exceptionally…read morecaring and professional. I've also had a stay at Visalia's hospital which was good but not any better than SV. Most of the reviews appear to be about ER visits. I've been there several times for myself and once with my 4 year old nephew. when its a true emergency ie. severe allergic reaction with potential antiphallic shock and in another case heart attack and dog bite, the staff immediately reacted. When the problem is just flu, stomach problems or in some cases people shopping for opioids they are triaged to the bottom of the list. The problem with most ERs is people use it rather than go to a doctor's office, creating crowds at times. It is understandable since many people do not have medical insurance and can't afford a doctor. All of which is a product of the USA's inadequate, expensive, profit driven health care system.

I saw Paul Giem the second and third time. They gave me something that isn't even available in the US!!! They told me how I felt is normal... They shouldn't even be open!!!! Horrible nurses and staff they don't deserve to be open. I would rather see my primary than sit in the ER for hours. My stomach is so upset after what they gave me.

I watched staff for 4 hours on day one and they would come in and check her vitals and leave but never emptied out her full catheter bag nor offer her water. I finally ended up emptying out the bag at hour 2 and asked the next nurse how often are they supposed to empty it out and she told me "oh just push the call button and we will come". So I guess it's not part of their patient care to check catheter bags unless patient requests for it to be emptied out. Day 2 still in 3South, I came in and her IV machine was beeping and it can be heard in the hallway. It took a nurse an 45 minutes to come and check the IV machine which was not pushing her fluids. Day 3 still in 3South, my mom calls me to tell me she hit her call button and had been waiting about 10 minutes to get help to use restroom but no one came and she ended up soiling herself. I HAD to call to get a CNA to go check on her and that still took another 10 minutes. When the CNA finally comes into the room, she asks my mom "Do you want something to clean yourself?". Ummm, hello she couldn't get up on her own to use the restroom so you think she can clean herself?? Really?? By far the worst care I've seen so far offered by this hospital. I do want to say I am giving it a 3 star as she had a wonderful RN and CNA at night who took really good care of her and my mother made sure to tell me how well they took care of her. Seems like the lack of care is on the day shifts.
