I am a type 1 diabetic and went to the emergency room last night with high blood sugar up in the 500 range. Before any tests were run I was told I would be fine and just adjust my insulin. The PA talked to me as if I were a child and told me there was no reason for me to miss work and he was going to give me some water and send me home. The doctor looked at me as if I were crazy for even being there and refused any treatment. He said he was e.r. doctor and not a diabetes doctor. I don't understand why I was treated so poorly. I have not been to the hospital in over a year and have never asked or took any kind of pain medication from the e.r. or ever for that matter. If I ever have to go back to the e.r. I will try my best to not ever go back to Marion. They weren't even busy. Never been treated so inhumane or unworthy
I really think that the ER staff have a contest on who can care the least. During my 6 hour stay, I had the displeasure of seeing patients being made fun of and laughed at, ignored. These are people with real ailments and issues, who come seeking help. I know in my heart I'm not supposed to judge other people, and that's one of my faults. But I do believe in carma, so I pray that if any of the ER staff is ever has the need to be treated at any hospital.That your not treated the way you treat others when there under your care.
This is a great hospital the only thing that I didn’t like was when we were getting out it took five hours for them to get us out
This is a sorry excuse for a hospital. Waited 6 hours with my sister and still waiting!!
Horrible go to any other hospital i sat in the er for over 5 hours they started taking people back that came in hours after me went to see what was going on they informed me that i was already in a room then a nurse came out hateful and rude said well we have had ambulances come in i said ok but why does it say i am in a room waited another 30 min to an hour they never yold me anything else. I would not come to mcdowell hospital drive to spruce pine morganton asheville any where but here.
