What a hell hole. This is not medical care. It just isn't. Gross side of humanity consistently on display here.
Last night I got rear ended at a red light. I had and still have a lot of neck and back pain. I was taken to Virginia Beach General in an ambulance. I was seen by Megan a P.A. and her nurse. I don't remember the nurse's name however I do remember how I was treated. Megan the P.A. acted as though my situation was of no importance(No big deal). Megan advices me against a X-ray although I was having chest pain.I decided to get the X-ray anyway despite her professional opinion. When I returned from the lab although I was provided with prescriptions for my pain I had to ask to be treated for the pain I was in at that moment. Megan reluctantly agreed. Her nurse handed me a pill that I assumed was ibuprofen. When I asked what she gave me I then found out it was a narcotic drug. They discharged me. After I was discharged I remembered i would need a doctor's note for work. Something again Megan the P.A. neglected to give me of even recommend. Overall my impression of this hospital and the service and services they provide as uncaring, unprofessional and completely inadequate in relation to bedside manor and patient care (inhumane, lack of natural affection). I would not recommend being here especially as a African American. This hospital is not suited for our demographic. I definitely believe this contributed to my lack of care.
How is a physician with an attitude problem big enough to cause her to miss something so routine (and dangerous) still seeing patients here?
The police told me I was not assaulted. Officially. Then refused to document my injuries. I objected to all of what caused these injuries, I guess no only sometimes means no. Noted.
The ER missed the 1-centimeter kidney stone that was causing her so much pain. It was later found by a different ER doctor during a second visit on Christmas Eve, two months later.
It's an absolute joke.
I actually MOVED to a different neighborhood in Virginia Beach, hugely because of this "hospital".
Where have I become familiar with that concept?
I love being shaken down for money while I'm sick in the ER. Super classy and great fun. Thanks guys!
Emergency Room doctors treated my wife like a drug seeker, while missing a 1-centimeter kidney stone.
I found the staff very polite and professional and more than willing to meet a patients needs. It made my visit to the hospital much more pleasant even while sick and in pain.
I recently took my wife to this hospital for treatment of excruciating back pain. Because she had hip surgery six weeks prior, the attending physician assumed that she was just looking for pain medication and attempted to discharge her without even bothering to do an examination. One of her legs was non weight bearing at the time; since we live on a second floor apartment, I objected to this. This caused the ER doctor to get an extremely bad attitude from “having her judgement questioned” and refuse to reconsider. Only after I talked to the charge nurse was her care turned over to an orthopaedic doctor.
See my pictures of my many horrifying injuries resulting from this hell hole. Oh that's right, you can't. Sentara deleted them.
