Worse care center ever Notice I did not call it a hospital?…read moreMy wife was in ICU for 29 days. If I had notbee there every day, I have no doubt what so ever, she would not have made it out alive. Every day I had to tell them what to do and what not to do. She suffered an internal decapitation. The neurosurgeon was the only competent person I saw. There has only been 7 cases of her injury ever survive. That is EVER in the history of the record keeping. pe do have to learn somewhere but all the did was play games with there iPhones Her bill was $386,000 dollars. I told them to stick it. I paid the neurosurgeon for his services. He was a professional . thank GOD

On September 7, 2024, I was a victim of an active shooter on interstate 75 near London, Kentucky…read more I was taken by helicopter to the UK heath care Albert B. Chandler hospital. My care there with only one exception was fantastic. The trauma team, emergency department, nurses, technicians therapists, dietary and housekeeping personnel were all friendly, conscientious and great at their jobs. One nurse named Barbara who worked on discharge planning, was the only exception to my excellent care. Barbara works a nursing job that does not provide bedside care. She was going over her discharge plans for me. I have a bullet hole in my left upper thigh. I cannot see this wound directly. While in the hospital, one physician and several nurses packed this wound with saline soaked gauze. These people are trained to pack the wound. They were standing behind me and using TWO HANDS to pack this wound. "Nurse" Barbara's solution for acceptable home wound care was to have me hold a mirror in one hand and use the other hand to pack the wound. As stated earlier, trained doctors and nurses require TWO hands to safely accomplish this task to maintain sterility. Preventing infection is paramount in this situation. In the weeks since my discharge, my opinion of "Nurse" Barbara is that she is out of touch with good patient education. I also believe she is lazy and did not want to take the time to help set up out of state discharge care. The name of my primary care physician in Indiana was well documented on my chart. One phone call to Indiana would have alerted my doctor that I needed additional care. Shame on this nurse for being so negligent.

I'm rating my experience with the emergency department medical staff. I came here when I had covid…read moreand could no longer breathe. Walking in at 5 am Saturday morning there was no other people in the waiting room. This never happens in California where I'm from. It's typical to spend hours upon hours to be seen. I couldn't catch my breath and within 2 minutes of being there they were fitting me with a cánula for oxygen. Instant relief! Every medical person I encountered was kind and helpful. The security officers I encountered on the other hand were not helpful. My daughter dropped me off at that said Emergency. When I walked in I said, I have covid and I can't breathe. The officer said, the entrance it up the hill and pointed me out the door. Walking "up the hill" almost killed me. It wasn't a long walk, but I had run out oxygen. I almost passed out in the dark on the way to the door. I've never been treated so coldly as I was by that officer. So zero star for that heartless person. It's a shame that people are treated with so little feeling because of covid.

I was having increased panic every day for a couple days until a multi hour paralyzing anxiety…read moreepisode made me decide I probably needed to go to the ER. It was likely linked to my chronic illness POTS, which is rare-ish (its being diagnosed more and more thanks to awareness but it's not super common), but in general people have no clue what it is. I had a near syncope episode this summer that landed me in an ER in Michigan and the nurse literally had to google my condition. However at Baptist, it seemed as if EVERY SINGLE PERSON I talked to knew what POTS was. I was so pleasantly surprised! Everyone I talked to was polite and asked me if I needed anything else. Anxiety can sometimes not be taken seriously but the PA and nurses all listened to me and did the best to get me some temporary drugs that would calm me down and point me in the right direction for what to do after I was discharged. The wait time was fairly long, but I didn't really mind. There were multiple people there with chest pains and one lady crying out in agony that went before me so even though I mentally felt awful I wasn't dealing with anything life threatening. Only criticism is the waiting room is kinda depressing and not super comfy but that's it. OH! And I just got in the mail today a letter from baptist health saying that they hope I'm feeling better now. So above and beyond!

Bill was $3,000 for an absolute nonexistent level of care, not only that, but once I followed up with an ENT, he told me the ER UNDERDIAGNOSED me and that I had a severe ear infection, to which I had to have another round of antibiotics because the ones the ER sent weren't appropiate. I explained all of this to the billing department since I have a bill of over $1600 after insurance, and they could have not cared less, needless to say I'm never stepping foot on a Baptist Health facility again.

The hospitalist and surgical staff were excellent. What I do not understand was why she had to stay in the ER for 18 hours before transferred to a floor bed. The reason given was that the hospital was full, but I found out shortly after she was transferred to the floor that there was a lot of empty beds. Availability of food and quality was very lacking. The food at the Starbucks on first floor was good but limited time hours of operation and the cafeteria being closed on weekends I guess was ok since people don't need to eat on weekends. In closing, the nursing and medical staff were excellent, professional and kind.

Maybe write it down for me, as to whom it may concern, to fix my issue." In the future, my voice will be off, and I'll sign it (ASL) and write it down. Maybe that will get the point across. The bottom line was that it was a repeatedly horrible experience, and a similar experience, and probably worse at their Leestown facility.

My husband had an echocardiogram done as requested by Dr B, a cardiologist at UK. My husband was sent to Good Sam, as the machine was there. Never at any time was he considered an outpatient nor was seen in the ER. UK billing coded this test as outpatient and charged a facility fee (hospital fee for outpatient), but charged a separate fee with the same CPT code, at a separate address for the provider. Since the test was billed as an outpatient test at a hospital, our insurance company applied it to our deductible. The total bill was $4258.00. UK billing never sent an itemized will to us for this. Rather, they sent it to collections. When our insurance company requested they resubmit it with proper documentation, the billing department refused. Further, they have not pulled the bill back from collections as requested to date. Lastly, when I requested a manager to assist me, Cara with billing was unprofessional and hung up on me. I truly hope this review will prevent anyone else from having such an issue like this and strongly encourage you never to use their services as they will try to bleed every penny out of you.

I've been to The Women's Hospital on the 2nd and 3rd floor of the building three now…read more First time, it was January 18-20, 2022. I was around 28 weeks pregnant with twins. I came in for a fever and severe cramping. I was extremely nervous, as I had no desire to lose my babies. It ended up that I tested positive for COVID. Because I was in isolation, it seemed like there were times I was an after-thought. My meals always seemed to arrive cold and an hour or two late. And due to the COVID restrictions during that time frame, my husband was allowed to only stay with me a short time. Now don't get me wrong, the nurses were really kind and helpful throughout my entire time here; and that really helped my stay at the hospital much more pleasant. Also, because my doctor is part of the Saint Joseph East family, he was able to see me the 2nd day of my arrival to check how I was doing. Second time, was the first week of March, thinking my body was cramping and ready to have the twins. But it was false labor and everyone was still really nice anyway. The doctor on call even said that he would rather have women come in multiple times for false labor, than to have something happen. Such service!!! Third time, it was between March 18-21, 2022. I came early in the morning (roughly around 4am) on March 18th, thinking that my water had broken. I didn't have long to wait and was immediately brought back and gave birth to the most beautiful twins around 0834 and 0835. Happy to find out they use Medela Breast pump as I had an at home one recommended to me by a nurse practitioner friend. All in all, the nurses and doctors really took care of the twins and us and made the start of our journey memorable.
