Southern Tennessee Regional Health System Lawrence

I would give this place zero or negative stars if I could. I can not speak for the other departments but do not go to the ER for anything. I went in at 6 weeks pregnant with bleeding. I waited in the ER for 4 hours (which wasnt the problem at all, I expected a long wait). I had an ultrasound done as well as blood work. My fiance has to leave to make sure someone is home for our daughter to get off the bus. The moment he leaves the nurse walks in to discharge me. So, I ask her what's going on and was everything okay? She said the Dr. Reedy should have came in and talked to you already but he hadn't. So the nurse( who was just as nice and sweet as she could be) went and got Dr. Reedy. He comes into my room with a horrible attitude and says I heard you were upset. I said No I'm not upset but she was going to discharge me and you never came back and talked to me. He went on to explain that this was an ER and I was not the only patient. Okay?? Still why is the nurse discharging me when I haven't heard anything from you?? He said you are having a normal pregnancy and sometimes you bleed during pregnancy. I was very upset at this point as I had no recieved any answers as to why I was bleeding or anything. So the doctor feels the need to have security called on me for raising my voice. I will never in my life set foot in this place again. Dr. Reedy is a horrible excuse for a doctor and should not be seeing patients with the attitude he has.

Had a good experience with the nurses during labor (Katrina and Kellie helped me deliver my baby and they were both awesome!)
However, we did not have a good experience with some of the nurses and our pediatrician, Dr. Benefield, after delivery.
They were rude and not empathetic AT ALL towards my husband and me. Which is surprising to me because we just went through labor!

The staff, which were great, are handcuffed by government regulations. Do not go here if you want to continue your prescribed medications. Pharmacy decided not to dispence my medication at the correct time or ammount. They in effect took it upon themselves to stop dispensing meds as prescribred by my primary care physician. Went there with a BP OF 213 OVER 191. Checked myself out without permission. I may die .....but not there in lawrenceburg.

Just go anywhere but here you will be waiting for 2hrs+ with any thing that is being done even when they say we will be back in 30 mins. People dont work here. Its just sad how the staff is rude and awful.

Amazing Doctors, Nurses, and Staff that truly care about their patients.
