Baton Rouge General Medical Center

This was my best hospital emergency room experience. The staff is very friendly and everything went great. I couldn't believe i was done within an hour and I left feeling great. They did a great job. I would recommend this hospital and if I do have to go again, this is the hospital I would go to. If you need something bandaged up, I hope you get Valerie. This young lady does her job with so much love you FEEL it!! My experience is one of the reasons im in a great mood despite my leg having staples in it 😊

Dr. Short in the burn unit is incredible. She is easy to talk to and has a really confident, friendly demeanor that helps put you at ease. I had never been to the General until our little boy suffered a burn recently. The staff we encountered were amazingly friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. Wow

I accompanied a friend from work to the ER where she had to wait hours before any type of diagnosis was made or they took any steps to address her condition. They admitted her for 2 days and then sent her home still symptomatic. A week later she saw a specialist who immediately sent her to a surgeon to remove her gallbladder as she had a huge stone which was continuing to cause distress. It could have been much worse had it ruptured before she saw the specialist. This hospital has some very severe issues that need to be addressed in terms of providing proper patient care and diagnosis.

Please note this hospital DOES NOT HAVE AN EMERGENCY ROOM! Great friendly care and service!

My dad is in there at this moment and we are really angry over his treatment. He's been there over 24 hours and has yet to see a doctor and the worse thing is the CNA left him in urine for over 20 minutes after being told to clean him. The RNs had to clean him...this is really disgusting. This used to be a great hospital, but now there is nothing bit lazy staff on the 3rd floor
