Emergency Departement

Don't go. 4 hours there, walked out. I asked for water, 45 minutes later, still didn't get water. waited another 25 minutes, still didn't get a simple antibiotic shot or water. Guess I'll just have to take the infection.

Went in for abdominal pain... ended up being my appendix... went in Thursday 2amish, got checked out, had surgery, and then was heading home that same Thursday around 1pm.... in and out less then 12hrs.. what!! Granted the following week I was there way way longer but they had 2 extreme emergencies come in at the same time (life or death) and then a 3rd followed... theykept us posted and checked on us regularly... was out of their control All in all was a wonderful experience and I had some amazing nurses!!

This was by far the worst hospital experience I've ever dealt with in my life. My fiance went in to be treated for a high risk rabies bite. The bite was deemed high risk by a veterinary hospital connected to the University of Pennsylvania -- the animal in question was exhibiting strong signs of having rabies and, since it bit a human, had to be euthanized by law. We were told to get a rabies vaccine ASAP, but unfortunately that night we went to two hospitals that were severely and dangerously understaffed in the city and would have had to wait indefinitely. Since the CDC advises that you need the vaccine ASAP but within 24 hours, we decided to do this early the next day. Bear in mind that he is uninsured and we were willing to pay out of pocket for a vaccine, however much it costs without

My wife had a bad fall and fractured her upper arm on Labor Day weekend. ER staff was polite, courteous and professional. They took care of her, worked her up, and got us in and out as quickly as they were able to.

Had a very positive experience. Came in with heart palpitations and a rapid heart rate, they took me back for an EKG, a chest x-ray, checked all my vitals, ran some tests, and got me a fluid IV. When I came in my heart rate was around 100 and fluttering, by the time I left and got home it was back in the 60's where it usually is, and I haven't had any more palpitations. Took a little long to get from the EKG to a bed, but I'm sure if I had more serious symptoms they would have taken me back right away. Plus it was busy, so I'm fine looking the other way.
