Spectrum Health Ludington Hospital

Waited for hours and watched others who arrived later than me receive faster service. An emergency room should really be faster than this.

What an ordeal today has turned into. I am borderline Type 2 diabetic. I control my diabetes through my diet so far. If I have to be on steroids for an illness, I have to be put on long lasting insulin. The Convenient Care care NP prescribed the wrong kind of insulin. Thank God for Walgreens and Dr. Overmyer's office for catching the mistake or I would have overdosed on Insulin. The NP even prescribed the dose wrong. When I call back to have them correct the script, I was told we're 11 patients deep and wouldn't be able to get to my chart today. Dr. Overmyer to the rescue, actually her nurse for making all the calls to get everything corrected. Dr. Overmyer's nurse was told the same thing when she called there to figure out what was going on. Too busy to correct their mistake. I will NEVER step foot in that place again.

A few months ago I took my Boyfriend into the ER because his doctor recommended if his ulcerative colitis got any worse to come in. He was in tremendous pain and had bloody stool. After waiting hours in the room and providing a sample and blood work. Dr Strbich was extremely condescending and rude, and assumed that he just wanted pain meds. We left without any answers or treatment. Fastforwad to yesterday when I had to went into the ER because I had vomited blood. Same story. Waited hours to be berated by a nurse practitioner (there is no longer a Dr. In the ER). I'm sure the bill on this last trip will be exciting by the way these other posts have made it sound. Spectrum is definitely a for-profit organization and I suggest you take your time and loved ones somewhere else.

I'd Ilike to give a HUGE shout out to Dr Amy Beeman DO! I believe that she was truly an answer to our prayers💕
The Indigo Hospital Drs we're excellent with Brian's care while he was a patient there. While every hospital has a few exceptional nurses, every hospital also has some very undesireable staff. Ludington hospital was honestly one of the best of the 5 different hospitals that Brian was treated in this year! Dr Amy Beeman DO is the best in-hospital Drs that treated Brian!!!
