Mercy Hospital Carthage

I recently had to visit Carthage E.R. I had Dr. Featherly. He saw me in 2015 when i was in horrible pain and had neuropathy in my hands. He said i would be disabled in a little while and told me why. Degenerative disc disorder. I thought no way! Not me.
Wow. Was i wrong.
I started dropping my painting tools for no reason. My hands didnt work right. The pain was so bad i slept all day. It caused anxiety that felt like i was having a heart attack all day.
No other doctors has been so insightful and correct. I mean spot on. He should be the Dean of Medicine somewhere!
When you go through what i have you begin to doubt and think you can do things you shouldn't or that its in your head. After tearing my meniscus and other injuries. I know i shouldve trusted Dr. Featherly sooner.
The "Morality" crisis not opioid crisis has left me tortured. If people had morals they wouldn't abuse drugs and leave the rest of us in the wake of despair for them and because of them. I feel for the loss of lives and lives that have to be lived without someone. My 2 cents.

It is a great small hospital with access to bigger hospitals if needed. Small town feel and hospitality.

Very friendly staff, wonderful courtyards with turkeys,geese and ducks.Love this place.

Horrible beside manners and poor listening

When it an emergency and you go in for x rays of your knee and they have NO DOCTOR to read the x rays for 3 days or longer that is ridulous. I am walking or trying to walk on my feet and the pain in the knee is excruciating. I will never go back there again! !!!! The staff apologized but they have no control of the Hospital. Very poorly designed for customers, no emergency hold and open buttons for doors for folks in wheelchairs, crutches. And they cannot take you passed the door to your car if you are having trouble walking! !!!!!!
