    Parkwest Medical Center Imaging - Many sticks to get IV in- none were successful

    I have gone here twice now for CT imaging. The first time they stuck me 6 times to get the IV in…read morefor contrast. I left looking like a drug user. They were unsuccessful in inserting the IV. I left with many needle marks on me as well as bruises. Their response was to reschedule and do it all over again. My cancer Dr suggested this time to come to their office to have the IV put in and then drive to the hospital. Since I had chemotherapy in the past and lymph node removal on the right side, an IV is not an option in my RT arm. I received chemo in the left arm which leaves me very limited to where needles can go due to scar tissue in the elbow bend area of the Left Arm. My cancer dr's nurse inserted it in the forearm of my Left Arm due to these reasons. PW imaging room, the lady supposedly flushed my IV before hooking me up to the machine that pumps the contrast. She then had me lay on the table while the CT gave me a couple of commands. She then stated she was about to use the machine to put saline in me. Suddenly it felt like an immense burst of pressure was being pushed through my IV. It blew the IV out of my vein and immediately swelled up my arm. I was in extreme pain and my arm was burning. I asked if it was normal and she said no that my IV blew. I made a brief statement that the machine pressure was too much. I was once again told I would just have to reschedule to have it done all over again. I left with no CT scan. Another important fact is that I have no idea if the saline flush was a fresh syringe or not. I have no idea if it was even saline. The lady did not open any fresh medical syringes in front of me or alcohol swab. I have no idea if it was a clean syringe. Looking back she didn't clean the opening area of the IV with alcohol before she supposedly flushed the IV.

    Where to start?!!!! In general the front line staff and most of the nurses are incredibly rude.

I actually had to walk one through the steps of treating a sprained and possibly broken ankle because he was clueless. He actually was asking step by step because he didn't know what to do. This is the caliber of Dr they hire. I recommend any patients of Dr Bidya watch your records closely. From my own experience and from talking with others, he has a history of falsifying records and interfering with care from other Drs, especially choice Drs. He isn't my Dr anymore and he still interferes with my neurologist, blocking her from getting test results and changing prescriptions and the clinic refuses to do anything. I've been fighting them for 5 years to see an ortho specialist for my knees (service connected) and they have refused because I complained about Dr abuse I witnessed. Now I'm in an endless loop where they get ordered by Congressman Duncan's office to give me the referral, then it gets lost and they have to get ordered to do it again. I could write a book on all of the abuses I've witnessed and been subject to due to my trying to expose it. In short, the people who run this clinic should be prosecuted.
