Bethesda Medical Center

It is well kept and clean when you enter. Obvious that it needs a little bit of some paint in certain places but what large building doesn’t? The back area has a pond that is minimally kept. I wouldn’t find any solace walking around it at all. Parking lot is having the same problems as any big parking lots to do with cracks and potholes might be a good time for them to update that.

I went to the ER Sunday with constant vomiting and severe pain. Despite my symptoms, I was told my labs were “normal” and was not given pain relief or imaging. My sister-in-law had to advocate just to get me medicated. No scans were done. On Wednesday, I went to a different ER where scans were taken immediately. I was admitted and had my gallbladder removed. The doctors stated that my condition was serious and confirmed that coming in when I did likely prevented things from getting worse. I felt dismissed and unheard at the first hospital. As a plus-size Black woman with no history of diabetes or hypertension, I felt my concerns were minimized rather than properly evaluated. Shame on you Dr Micheal who was at the Er on sunday night and your staff

DO NOT GO HERE IF UR BLACK they do not care for you. Went in tryna get help for parathisea an they gave me Tylenol sayin good luck. Wrong hospital if ur black

Got kicked in the stomach by a horse at work. They seen me right away. I was having panic attacks with the worry as I’ve had most my life and they ran tests. Very kind and reassuring to me. Nice & clean hospital. I personally find comfort in the smaller hospitals like this. I’m glad I went to make sure I was really okay & am happy to be alive!

Clean efficient bandaid station for minor injuries that can't be treated at home or require stabilizing before being transported to a larger facility. Very nice, helpful staff.
