Lehigh Valley Hospital – Muhlenberg

My husband was bright to the ER for a high heart rate. ER was fab. He was admitted for 24 hr observation. The next morning he had an ultra sound of his heart around 8 30 AM . The doctor came in read the results of the ultra sound telling us he had an enlarged atrium. That was probably the reason he was throwing such a bad rhythm. Follow up with cardiologist and probable electrophysiology study and he was started on new medication. Waiting to be discharged. The nurse came in and said they have us all the wrong information and that wasn't even his ultrasound that was read to us. Now it's 1 15 in the afternoon, we have no information and will probably be charged another day. I'm calling Medicare. This surely isn't his fault.

It's not the 1st time I've been here for X rays. Such a pleasure walking in since I have to use a cane. The greeter at the front entrance immediately said the if I work to be going to get x-rays done that I should use the elevator and he was gonna call the gentleman who drives the golf cart from the elevator and to the registration desk for the x-rays and after that he took us to the X-ray Room waiting Room. Once done with the X-ray the nurse called the gentleman who drove the Golf cart. We waited a little bit not long and then he picked us up took us back to the elevators and down we went. Using the elevator. That is so very conscientious and wonderful that Muhlenberg has that service for the People. Makes it much easier getting around the hospital. Both the gentlemans that assisted us were very nice and as well as the nurses that called for the transportation to return back to the elevator.

My daughter went to the emergency room with severe abdominal pain. Initially the staff was very attentive and things moved quickly. They set her up with an IV and did a CT scan. After they brought her back from the CT scan they completely ignored us. Everytime we asked how much longer we were told they would check and then we never heard from them. They left her urine sample on the counter and never checked it for her liver function. We spent a total of 4 1/2 hours there, with the last 3 hours just waiting. Although Muhlenberg is close to my residence, I will travel the extra distance to go to St. Lukes.

After eating at Corked in Bethlehem I didn’t feel so good. Ended up at the hospital and they took good care of me. Everything came out just find in the end.

The worst hospital /ER in the world! 1 star is actually over rating them! I came in a little before 11pm with my son who was the patient, they took him for x-rays pretty quickly. But here we are damn near 3 hrs later& no results. I understand the "physician" or resident is not a radiologist, however she is a doctor so she could've went with what she saw & played it that way (better safe than sorry ) until she gets an actual read! Like she said she saw fluid in his bone which to her indicated a fracture but still needed the call from the radiologist! U couldn't put a splint on my son & discharge him? & then call me with an actual read? Exactly how they've done numerous times before when they couldn't get ahold of the radiologist . Not to mention the attitude, snares, lots of eye rolling, & brushing me off from a few nurses & the doctor herself including her assistant. OH! & the crazy excuses such as oh if the doctor keeps calling radiology they'll take longer with results & the constant she's in this room, she's in that room she'll be right there. Long story short I left without results, without closure ,OH & HE LAST TOOK TYLENOL AT 7PM LIKE I TOLD THEM & WAS COMPLAINING ABOUT PAIN & THEY DIDN'T GIVE HIM ANYTHING!!!!! By the way it's 1:50am!!!!! I will NEVER come here AGAIN! WE WILL GO TO SAINT LUKE'S TOMORROW!!!!! TIME WASTED! THANKS FOR NOTHING! Oh & I bet I'll get a bill for no services also. They're known for that too!
