This hospital is awesome. The only problem they seem to have is that the people that do registration don't do the full registration. They have the patient do their job for them. They are also rude at registration.

Hello, my name is Dr. Tammy Woodward, PsyD and this is an edited review from my recent ER visit and subsequent stay on the 3rd floor. Please know that I am writing this new post as a form of public service to our local community.On Feb, 6th I went to the ER because I was in pain and couldn't breathe. I was shocked and scared after I was told I had a pulmonary embolism. I did worry the first two days that I might have been miss diagnosed.For some context into measuring my state of mind and just how scared I was during my whole stay on the 3rd floor. My first introduction to any type of embolism came when I was 4 or 5 years old. My grandfather passed away because we couldn't find his heating pad to help him. I still pray to God for penance because I couldn't save him—that was over 30 years ago. Life is precious and I was extremely anxious and scared that I was going to die for my penance. Plus, in the last three years, my family and I almost lost four of my sisters due to embolisms in the lungs and a major stroke. My baby sister died and was revived @ Froedyert Hospital in Milwaukee, which left her with permanent damage. My mom lost her mind when I called her to ask our judge to re-activate my living will on the 9th because a nurse named Raveen (RN) lead me to believe she was going to make me overdose and I didn't want my family thinking I committed suicide. This nurse became angry because I asked her to do her job. Yes, I was The frightening thing is fact that Raveen was angry and on the last day. I am grateful to Dr. Jacobson Dumcan, DO, and the amazing staff in Emmanuel's ER. There are no words to express my gratitude for Emmanuel Medical Center's quick catch. I preferred Emmanuel because I equated the hospital's name with strong moral character. I'm an old-school catholic born and raised in Wisconsin.As a military wife from another state, I take for granted that every healthcare provider is competent due to my state being a lockdown state and those who commit gross criminal negligence are arrested and serve time in prison. Here in California, I've noticed that hospitals and doctors are more than willing to commit medical insurance fraud, waste, and abuse.That's why I was so dumbfounded by the amount of gross criminal negligence and medical malpractice occurring on the 3rd floor. During my stay, my hospitalist was Dr. Jacobson Dumcan, DO, and I thought he was doing a great job and I didn't have many complaints. My only complaint was that he never asked me if I wanted something other than a narcotic. I hate oxy and I wasn't asked (consisted) what type of pain I was experiencing. I had enough pain meds at home. My lungs felt like I was trying to breathe underwater I was told I would only be in for observation and I could understand his stopgap medical billing reasons for trying to make me stay longer. He was doing his job and I can't be angry at his reasons why he kept me in the hospital so long. However, I know my insurance company won't believe any of the reasons provided because I had called my insurance company the day before to help case manage my healthcare. I am tired of all the healthcare fraud perpetrated by local doctors and hospitals. I didn't need to take a narcotic because my ankles only hurt when I walked on them (I needed a wheelchair and a lot of patience while trying to ambulate). I did have two amazing and wonderful nurses named Victoria and Maggie.; however, once the night shift came I knew there was something seriously wrong with the night shift. I did not realize the severity of how bad the NIGHT shift was until the 8th of February. On the 7th, most of my normal medications were never given—to include breathing treatments to help with my breathing (blood clot in lung). I also discovered that that the night nursing staffs' were required to wear different colored scrubs. I was horrified when I figured out that my RN was the horrible women that would drag me out of my bed making my foot hit the floor. told by

I don’t like this hospital, for whatever reason they take so long, to make the tests and have the results back I understand that it’s a hospital and a lot of people needs attention but waiting here for so long it’s ridiculous. They move you to a room to wait even more. They have to do something about it. The wait it’s just no good. Plus it looks like they choose who to help! It’s just sad, to see how this hospital treats the poor sick people. What if it’s a minor thing that these doctor can solve quick but they refuse, for what?? Sadly I would rather die at home than coming here.

This is the second time I have come here with my daughter and the doctor see her in cold hallway all alone. I hope my insurance isn't being charged for a room. We got here at 3 and it is 8:30 now. We sat in the waiting room for most of that time. From the waiting to the hallway. Wow and they say America is not a 3 world country. I can't tell

We came here on 2.6.24 for my 6 year old son who sadly broke his arm. Entered around 6:30pm and left around 9:30pm. The quickest we've ever been seen. Aside from one nurse who asked "what happened" and I responded with the story and her cutting me off with "yeah yeah yeah that's enough", everything was great. My son felt safe with everyone. He was extremely nervous but they made him feel great. At one point there was someone even offering patients water and warm blankets. Which was amazing to see. Thank you for a quick but great service.

I went in ambulance very sick they had tried to get me to sit in the lobby in my nightgown with men looking and refusing to give me a gown or blanket to cover up , these were women. This is gross , disrespectful, insulting behavior. The wait time was over 6 hours. I saw one nurse slam a door in a patient s face. They were ready to expose my nakedness to the entire room of people waiting to be seen . One nurse with a long pony tail brown hair was especially cruel to everyone. She told me to get out and discharged me because I refused to expose myself to room full of men. She said we don’t give gowns or blankets out. She opened the door and smirked smiled and said get out, I said Kaiser wouldn’t treat me like this, she said go there your discharged. So I called the manager she never came. A charge nurse with a bad attitude came and said no gowns go out, I refused to expose myself and she got mad her whole face went frowned I thought she was going to hit me. But she marched away angry and got a blanket. I’m going to agency s for assistance no one should have to walk in the patient waiting room in a night gown naked, no underwear or bra on just about naked.

I'm actually still in the hospital, but did not want to wait to say how absolutely amazing the care is that I've received. From my doctor to the nurses...this is one of the best hospitals I've had to be. Doctor Wang is seriously the best colorectal surgeon. His bedside manner is beyond caring. My nurses have been ao responsive, and not once have I had to wait for anything.

A huge thank you to the Surgery/Gynecology/Womens Department Team. Thank you Dr. Savage, Dr. Sacker, KARAN!!!, Leah, Christina, Lovely, Mandy, Dana, Indra, LAUREN!!!, Dustin in the Post Op area, Stephanie, Kamil, Ms. Bev… all of you who genuinely took care of me. That surgery room was filled with strong women and it was amazing to see. I felt blessed being taken care of my such incredible women/nurses at Emmanuel. Thank you for ensuring I was always feeling taken care of and heard. This was not easy for me but the support I received allowed me to have an easy recovery. I am so thankful that you all helped me. I am a new woman and my health has been restored. I feel healthy for once in 3 years. God bless you ❤️
