Southwestern Vermont Medical Center

Wait far to long for an emergency department staff is snotty and have no compassion my husband went there and waited 45 mins in waiting room thwn another 2 hours in a er room never seen a dr or a nurse other than the shotty nurse that triaged him stuck him in a room and lwft him sitting there for 2 hours with no communication from anyone but the receptionist to get his info to bill out inaurance we left after 3 wasted hours so worth the trip to another hospital... Staff is/was rude and have no compassion at all for people.

My wife and I have both been treated there and found the staff to be outstanding. Building and grounds are keeped up very well nice all around.

Kimberly and Family loves southeast Vermont Medical center loves it a lot like be always Kimberly Hodgkins .

My wife arrived there by ambulance with acute back pain and muscle spasms. The pain was so severe should could not even walk. They took her in and administered drugs and then tried to x-ray her but she was in too much pain. After several hours they were able to get an x-ray and said they could not see anything wrong. She was given prescriptions for pain and muscle relaxer and sent home after 8 hours in emerg. During all this time, they did not believe the severity of her pain and even went so far as to infer that I was abusing her. They deduced that I was an "angry man" just by looking at my very normal facial expression. We moved on to Knoxville where she saw an Orthopaedic specialist who found that she has pinched nerves in her lower back due to mild disc bulging on 5 vertebrae. She was then given proper medical treatment and is now recovering. The Vermont facility should have seen this and treated it accordingly at the time.

Visiting from Texas, I had to use the ER at 5:00 am on a Sunday morning. The staff was incredibly nice, competent, efficient and professional. I was seen immediately. Great service from all of the staff.
