Putnam Community Medical Center

My mom is in there. Nurses and most staff are great. My concern is there is only one doctor visit during day and no one ever knows if its morning or afternoon. Most hospitals have a morning and afternoon review of patients. Slower medicine if the Drs aren't reviewing the situation enough! Frustrating because my parents are seniors and delays aren't good for father's health either since he is there by her side.

Never saw a Dr. The physicians assistant was rude. I was polite and answered the very limited questions she had. She never asked for family history, which I thought would have been relevant considering why I was there. No pelvic exam, no ultrasound or xray. It's like she latched onto an idea and that was that. She made me feel that I was wasting her time by being there. I understand that people have off days and work long shifts, and deal with things I cant imagine, I understand that they are people. With that said, I'm a person too. I also deserve the respect I show you. I came there to be helped not chastised and made to feel like I don't know things, this is exactly why I don't like going to drs. I heard what was said out at the desk, it's right there and your not quiet. This is not a great hospital which is frightening because its the closest hospital around.

Sy'Rhonda the nurse was amazing and caring. Dr. Kumar even checked up on me which shows he cares for his patients. Jungenberg PA and Dr. Hood was one track to the point and both ordered what exactly it was that I needed to find out what was wrong with me. An Amazing team. Answered all my questions and made sure I was comfortable. The wait wasn't bad at all considering it was a Saturday and especially being Hog Waller weekend. Tzhis place has definitely made a turn around for the best!! It's definitely not like it was before, I highly recommend it !
The Ultrasound tech & the CT/X-ray tech were also amazing and helped make sure I was comfortable! !

I just left there without being seen in the ER. I had to sit in a wheelchair for over an hour after I told them i couldn't sit up I needed to lay down because my hip replacement was in trouble. I have not been able to put weight on my right leg all day. I was told that I would have to wait longer before they could find a bed for me. I have had nothing but problems with 3 hip replacements that was done at your facility for 2 years now. I really thought that after there was a new person in charge things would be different but it's not.

I have tried to call you but I don't get an answer every time. So I see nothing has changed.

Went to the emergency room the nurses was nice and very helpful
but the Dr. Gerry Metta was very rude and very unprofessional
With care like this putnam counties reputation will not be any better
