My wife and I have had cause to use this hospital dozens of times over the last 13 years. They have always been nothing but professional. I suspect that that the negative reviews on here are predominantly from drug users that have been turned down for narcotics. This is a wonderful local hospital, and I would love to have conversations with those that say otherwise. Bring documentation....
The ER nurses treated me with respect and professional care. Except for the first woman the rest of the hospital staff treated me exceptionally well. I am 70 years old and have been in several hospitals in my life and I would rate this hospital in the top 10% for care and service.
The ER nurses were super. The woman at the ER desk would NOT put on my report that I said I had a bowel obstruction. She said she would put down "constipated". I told her I was not constipated but she wouldn't listen. When I saw the ER nurse I explained that I was not constipated but I had a bowel obstruction. (This was my 8th bowel obstruction).
Worse hospital ever!!!!! I have had 3 babies already and came to this hospital for my 4th because my doctor retired and I needed a new doctor. Well she happened to be with this hospital. Worse mistake I ever made!! They kept me in pain all during delivery I told them she needed to open my cervix bevause my old doctor told me If I ever had anymore kids I had scar tissue on my cervix and the doctor would need to open the cervix so I could dilate. This doctor refused and said she wasnt going to do it. They made me drink a whole cup of water when to see if I was really in labor when I and they already knew I was and when every other time I had a baby they gave me ice chips and said not to drink water suck on the ice chips. They didn't want to hear my protests against it and made me drink the water as soon as I drank it my baby went into distress!! They did nothing at all for me to have natural child birth like Lexington Hospital did. They were insistent on me having a C-section when I never had to have one with my other 3 babies!! They ended up forcing me to sign papers so they could give me a c-section and they plotted behind my back the whole time. They had recorders in my room the whole time listening to everything me and my family was saying. Treating me so rude!! The rudest nurses and doctors I have ever seen in my life!! They are all about what they can do to get the most money out of you!! After I had my baby they took my baby gave her formula behind my back when I told them I was breastfeeding. They put me in a hall what they said was a recovery room after surgery and it was basically a office where the lights were off. Asking me all kinds of questions that I didnt need to be answering at the time because I just had surgery. Then when they finally put me in a room it was so small it was like a janitors closet no one could even get to the sink or move around and we had to stay in there for 3 days. The doctor never ever washed her hands. It was just a nasty dirty hospital. Blood was on the floor and it wasnt mine. I had to fight to get my baby in the room with me it was like they wanted to keep my baby and everytime I turned around they wanted to take her to the nursery when with everybody I have ever had Lexington hospital always let me keep my baby in my room. It should be my choice not theirs. The doctors even look nasty and dirty. I will never ever go back here again!! I wouldnt even take my dog to this hospital!! Having a baby supposed to be a joyous time and a time to happy and bond with your baby not be stressed out with the doctors and nurses!! I felt like I was cheated out of what was supposed to be a glorious miracle time they made it awful and miserable for me and my whole family. They didnt even want to let my other kids in the room or in the hospital.. It was just awful!!! I wouldn't even give it 1 star but I have to to leave a review.
If you should need a hospital for any reason I would recommend traveling a bit farther to a different one. The bedside manner of all the staff in this place SUCKS. If you have a story to tell about how you got hurt or when you got sick, be prepared to repeat it over and over again because of the horrific lack of communication the staff shares. If you take medications that can cause false positives for illicit drugs, they will make that known and treat you like a junkie regardress of what you say, and within the walls of this hospital choose your words correctly because any tiny miscommunication will force the old fart doctor in the ER to involuntarily commit you to a mental facility!
Grandmother was pouring blood out of her hand from an injury and they still made her wait a half hour to an hour in the ER waiting room!!! This hospital sucks!!!!!
