Memphis, TN Hospitals

This was the worst care I have ever recieved! Total waste of time! I have new ins so did not have a dr that could see me immediately. Went to minor med before going to ER. Minor med said they would not be able to give me the care I would possibly need so they sent me to the ER. To air on the side of caution, also called my ins company and they said the same thing. I thought St Francis would be nice because you can make an appt instead of sitting in the waiting room all day. I presented with severe pelvic pain and abdominal and lower back pain. Due to the fact that I have an iud and could have had a pregnancy or any number of things I needed to be seen immediately. The nurses were very nice and attentive (the only reason i gave 2 stars). The NP I saw was horrendous! She was dismissive and downright rude! All she did was poke my pelvis and order a uranalysis for uti and pregnancy. Pregnancy showed negative which i told her it would. I had to basically insist on blood work being done. I told her I recently had a new med change and found interactions between the two meds after starting to have symptoms of being pregnant along with severe pain. She rolled her eyes at me! In the end, after being there for over 5hrs, she said she couldnt find a cause for the pain and i needed to see a dr. She never did a pelvic exam, never asked what medications I took, nothing! Absolutely nothing! Even my husband who was not there initially said she was dismissive and acted as if she just didnt want to deal with me. She gave me a scrip for pain pills and sent me on my way with the diagnosis of PELVIC PAIN!! In short, DO NOT GO TO THIS ER!

My husband stay at st francis bartlett, the staff was great, beautiful job.THERE WAS ONLY 2 PROBLEMS HE WENT TO THE ER AT 3A AND DID NOT GET TEST DONE UNTIL ABOUT 9A THE NEXT DAY, PITYFUL!!! AND THIS HOSPITAL HAS CAMERAS IN THE ROOMS WHICH VIOLATED MY HUSBANDS RIGHT TO HIS PRIVACY, ALSO HIS DIGNITY,ITS LIKE THE HIPPA LAW DOESNT APPLY TO THIS HOSPITAL.

I have heard how great the trauma center was but when sent to the floor was a nightmare. We were flown there. After ER we went to orthopedic floor. Omg the best care ever received! Leigh, Ryan and Caitlyn u r the best!

Emergency room staff helped me as soon as i got there, thank God! I was in so much pain . I received excellent care.
