if you love your loved ones, please do not bring them to this hospital. even when they help, there is no compassion, no empathy, and families are treated like their pain doesn’t matter. our experience was so traumatic that i would beg anyone reading this to choose somewhere else.

The emergency room people are very unprofessional. I couldn’t believe after 5 hours they gave me a bogus diagnosis I went to another E.R. Where they actually took care of my problem. These people were literally making fun of the patients. I thought I was at a comedy club not at a hospital for hours talking bad about all the patients instead of actually helping they have people in pain and I don’t know if these people actually feel like they’re doing their job, but they did awe’re literally making fun of the patients. I thought I was at a comedy club not at a hospital for hours talking bad about all the patients instead of actually helping they have people in pain and I don’t know if these people actually feel like they’re doing their job, but they did a terrible job of it. They are just milking your insurance.

Best ER! The staffs here are professional and friendly. They worked hard to give each patient attention and treatment. Dr. Zaidi is extremely kind and patient. He asked questions to understand our issue and listened actively. We were given tests immediately then medication, my dad felt better within minutes. We are beyond grateful! Thank you so much!

Came here last year for a pilonidal cyst drainage. I was in and out within an hour. They gave me antibiotics and pain meds. Staff were supportive and made sure the process was smooth.
