Presence Saint Francis Hospital

I came into this ER by ambulance because of an active GI bleed. I was discharged a few hours later and while sitting in the waiting area for my ride home, I was continuing to have the symptoms that had caused me to need to call 911 earlier that night. I was sent home and rushed back to a more competent ER the next morning where I needed multiple blood transfusions due to my GI bleed not being taken care of by this hospital sooner.

Was admitted to the ER on November 3 and released on November 6. Had my gallbladder removed. This was my first surgery. Very caring and quality staff and doctors the entire time I was there made me feel much less anxiety. I highly recommend Presence Saint Francis. I want to say thank you to all the nurses, staff and doctors who helped me during my stay there.

Went there today at about 1:30pm because I had back pain that was so bad, my legs kept buckling. I was called in by a triage nurse and he could clearly see that I couldn't get up on my own and didn't offer any assistance either. An older gentleman who was waiting to be seen came over and helped me get to the triage room. Once I was done in triage, I went into some room called the "treatment area" and still no assistance from anyone while I tried to walk to the "treatment area". Once in the treatment area, I received a shot and a pill which didn't help. I kept complaining that the pain is shooting from my back and into my stomach. The ER physician was in such a hurry to go home he gave me a BS diagnosis for a pulled muscle. I'm now at Evanston hospital and they've stated my spine is slightly shifting in the tailbone area.
Thanks St. Francis for I will never return there again. Whoever receives and responds to these reviews have your security pull up camera footage for 10/25/18 between 1pm and 2pm and you will witness the unloving care this place dishes out! You"ll see that none of your garbage staff tried to lift a finger to assist me with a wheelchair or anything! This place sucks and I'm glad they weren't able to fully check me out...I probably would've died from unknown causes because your doctors and staff are idiots!

I will like to say thank you very much to the emergency nurses, the ER doctors! When I was admitted all staff on the floor nurses and doctors were awesome! They were very caring and Presence Saint Francis is my go to hospital.

Worst hospital experience ever. Nightmare. Insensitive doctors, especially in ER, for patient care. Poor communications between hospital departments during stay, which put patient's health at risk. Trauma 1 center without a neurologist onsite. Wish the ambulance never took patient to this hospital. Had to move patient to another hospital so that he received appropriate diagnosis and care.
