Silverton Hospital

Nobody likes going to the hospital, but my experience there was a good one thanks to the staff. The nurses were attentive and the visit we had with the doctor was inspirational.

A nurse named Lorie really took the time to make sure i felt better and was comfortable. She is very professional and answered any questions i had! I appreciate her!💓

Went in tonight with mass infection in my sinus cavity.was prescribed some amoxicillin.im in severe pain.and I'm praying the low dosage antibiotics will work. I have a bad feeling I'm going to end up in the hospital.doctors assessment was a total joke!if you want to die I highly recommend going to this ER!

I was treated very kindly by all staff. The nurses: Diane and Donna the secretary, and the med tech... i didnt catch her name, and the Dr were all very nice and prompt. I was very uncomfortable however... because I was going in for back pain which is what alot of drug seekers go to the ER for. I'm a retired RN. One thing im not is a drugseeker. The Dr was very excellent on educating me. Nobody else ever had educated me on what was happening with my back. He believes me, but what I thought was weird was that he gave me pain meds to take at bedtime right after I just told him I sleep fine. It's activity that hurts. That is the only time I don't have pain.... At bedtime! except to roll over in the night. I did tell him that but he said to take them before bed anyway. I'm kind of confused but i will use my own judgement on that. If I don't need them before bed I will take them when I do need them. Other than that the visit was great. Got in and out fast and so glad he gave me steroids because I think they will help more than the pain meds. Nobody wants to.give out pain meds now, which I totally understand with the opiod crisis. Overall it was a very nice fast and easy visit.

Silverton Hospital ER far better than Salem ER re: wait time. Thank you for that!
