Minden Medical Center

The ER is horrible. I’ve had a bad experience every time I’ve gone. I went in for my sciatica, I could barely walk. I was treated like a pill popper. I went in for an ear infection, the doctor infected the ear that was good. When I had my baby at 5 months, one nurse was being funny me bleeding heavily. It took me about 3 hours to get any pain medicine for my contractions; I was 8 cm dilated when I arrived. No care until I was screaming. The nurse barely checked on me and there was only 2 or 3 or patients there. I try my very best to avoid this hospital

The staff are great. However, if you think you’re having a miscarriage, this isn’t the place to go. When I showed up early in the morning, I had to wait on day surgery patients to check into the ER admissions area, there was only one person admitting patients. So that was about a 20 minute wait in the ER... for non emergent patients. I know my situation isn’t emergent but that was ridiculous. Now I’ve been here almost 4 hours. And what should’ve been a simple vaginal ultrasound took I don’t even know how long. Not only can you not see the monitor they refuse to relay any information to you. The ultrasound tech has to send their pictures to a radiologist, and they inform the ER dr the results. It’s been an hour since my ultrasound and no one has come into the room. More than an hour on my labs. I have no idea what’s going on.

This is the worst experience. I see why the reputation is what it is but given my emergency, I came anyway. The only persons that had any ounce of sympathy was the nurse taking my blood work, the lady at the front and the two that wheeled me in. To wait 2 hours to know if you've lost someone or not...is ridiculous. Especially when it isn't busy and it's fully staffed. I will never ever come back or suggest anyone go there. To sit in the pain and anxiety of the unknown is already painful enough. But to have a completely unsympathetic staff is disgraceful. Nobody checks on you...asks you anything. They glance and keep walking as if they are scared to talk.

The emergency room crew on 8/8/19 3:37pm are a joke!!

Really bad experience I went in due to chest pains they did all.kinds of test and nothing was found sent me home a few days passed and pain hit me again harder then ever went to Willis knight and they figured it out I had to get my gallbladder removed.
