Lawrence &Amp; Memorial Hospital

One of the worst hospitals I have ever been to. They undermine you. Believe they know more than you and are very condescending. They don't like to do much work to get to the root of a problem. If you have a true emergency I would recommend going any where but LMH. My 4 month old son died July 9th 2018 after valuable time was wasted taking him to LMH first instead of straight to Children's Mercy. They were not prepared and it was over there heads. Took my daughter there on 5-7-2019 after she vomited fecal matter. Was told there is nothing wrong with her. All they were willing to do was run labs. Now we are at Children's Mercy with a bowel obstruction. This hospital is a joke!

I was recently admitted into LMH and I have to say they took care of me the minute I came through those doors. The staff was very professional about the care they gave me. I had no idea what was going on with my health but I'm recovering. I'm so thankful for all those who helped me. They worked as a team and I'm grateful for the excellent care I recieved! God bless!

Was attacked and the nurses found out I lived with a mental illness and suggested I was drunk. Then proceeded to act like the glass door which wasn’t all the way shut was as thick as ice, meanwhile I could hear 3 drs/nurses laugh amongst themselves about my situation. I eventually was tranquilized and they told my dad not to come for 3 hours. I’d say I had one compassionate dr the entire time.
This was awful.

Everyone seems nice enough but at both appointments today they've just left sitting in the exam room for over an hour

DO NOT EVER GO TO THIS FACILITY FOR MENTAL HEALTH EMERGENCIES. Your very life will be in peril. They will have you speak with a social worker and send you on your way. This is NOT mental health emergency protocol. For a facility in a community with so many young people, it is truly horrifying.
