Maine Medical Center

Not sure what the other reviews are mentioning, but I went into the ER at 9 AM with severe abdominal pain. Triage took about 20 minutes and was brought into the hospital. Turned out I had appendicitis. Roughly 3 tests, 1 male nurse (who was awesome), a couple of doctors and surgeons later I was lined up for the appendectomy. I was able to leave the same day around 5 PM after they made sure I was stable enough. Everyone was friendly and quick there. Definitely the best experience I've ever had an ER and hospital.

My boyfriend came in to get help with his depression. They triaged us and got us in quickly. The initial staff of doctors, nurses, and social worker seemed to care about his mental well being and said they would try to get him into a psychiatric hospital. I left him overnight in what I thought was good care and the help he was asking for. Got there the next morning, they wouldn't let me see him. Apparently, they woke him up after neglecting him since I left and threw him out of the ER and left him more of a mess because they said they would help him and they didn't. He didn't understand. I got him back worse than when he went in. I would give negative stars if I could. He wants the help and they denied him, kicked him to the curb like a mangy dog. I definitely give this place negative 5 stars. Disgraceful.

Here visiting with my wife, praying for a speedy recovery. She fell on ice Saturday evening and broke her hip. Surgery went well and on the road to recovery.

Good place to work or to be taken care of when you are down.

It worried me, that I have Hep C, and a nurse when she put in my IV. She didn't wear gloves. She didn't wash get hands afterwards. Whatever happens to BSI?
