Piedmont Fayette Hospital Minor Emergency Care

I thought I was going to be checked out and try to go to work the next day. That did not happen. I had, had a fever

for a week. I had no nausea, just a fever that went up and down. I figured I had the flu.

After talking to the physician on duty at the Emergency Minor Care, who LISTENED, and due to her due dilligence and experience, she sent me to get a sonogram. She was right on target. I had a stone stuck in my gallbladder, it had been that way for a period of time, yet I had no pain. I didn't feel great, but I was not hurting. Highly unusual.

I was told I had to have emergency surgery the next morning. What a surprise.

If I had not been sent for the sonogram I probably would have had a gallbladder to rupture causing so much more extensive care, infection and surgery.

The surgeon on call was extremely qualified, I met him the next morning, everything went extremely well.

The physicians, the staffs at the minor care facility and hospital were excellant, the care I received was excellant. Thank goodness for their competency.

Thank you so much.
