Lac/Olive View-Ucla Medical Center

This hospital has the worst emergency room ever. They make you wait over 6 hours just to see a doctor. They didn't care one bit about any patients and would give attitude if you start asking why is it taking so long. So ridiculous how this place makes people in need wait that long it's called an EMERGENCY room for a reason. If I wanted to wait that long I would of just gone to urgent care. Never going back here and I recommend people not to ever go there. They won't take care of you and just want your money you are better off going to holy Cross or Kaiser or just doing self treatments. Cause this hospital does not care if you die.

Worst Emergency room ever. I waited almost 6 hours for a real emergency. I left after waiting 6 hours. Im so confused as to what this hospital considers as an emergency? I saw many people who had the cold or flu and they were seen in the ER. I needed immediate attention thats why I went here due to bleeding and being pregnant. Never risk your health going to this ER. Horrible experience and I don't recommend!

Had severe pain and needed to go to the ER. I do not have insurance and heard this was the place to go. Due to the financial assistance available, this place has a very long waiting room in the ER. I waited for 9 hours to see a doctor. That said, sadly there are few places that are in the business of helping people and many places very happy to charge you thousands of dollars for the minimum required emergency protocol. Olive View has a great staff. I saw Dr. Alex Zhornitskiy (Might not be spelling correctly). He was incredible. Took the time to go through every possible reason for my pain and through process of elimination together he was able to direct me in how to care and who to see moving forward. I am lucky I did not have an emergency condition but if I did I am confident he would have found it.

Good nurse's they care about you.

This hospital is the worse hospital ever. I had to call the ambulance for my dad around 2am today and we asked them if they can take him to holy cross but they said they had to take him to olive view because it’s closer. First of all, every other ambulance that have came to take my dad to the hospital always took him to holy cross so I don’t know why they didn’t this time. For the longest the nurse and the doctor didn’t show up to check on my dad or give him anything to relieve the pain, they only asked for insurance information(guess that’s all that they care about). When the doctor came he was asking my dad questions mainly and did an ultra sound and didn’t come back after that. My mom asked the nurse if she can give my dad something for pain she said she would ask the doctor, which to my knowledge, she never even asked. She came to put the IV in my dad’s arm and it was so painful for him and she did not care. She kept giving him attitude . I left to go use the restroom and I can hear him screaming in pain. Later on he got up and left because they were doing nothing and just being very rude. I don’t recommend this hospital at all. I’m 17years old and it pains me to see my dad in such unbearable pain. The fact that I have school tomorrow and I had to sit in the hospital this early in the morning just to watch the doctors and nurses do nothing to help my dad is ridiculous. I wonder how they would feel if they had someone they love in the hospital and nurses and doctors aren’t caring for them nor do anything at all but waste their time and expect them to give them a big fat check.
