I would not recommend seeing Dr. Lizbeth Gibson at Porter Hospital. She lacks communication, empathy, and bedside manner. She didn't seem to care I was in pain and I had to be my own advocate. It was extremely frustrating to work with her and I still don't have a diagnoses.

Just another horrible experience at another terrible Centura! Asked to arrive 30 minutes early for paperwork, so I left work extra early to get here only to sit and wait, with no necessary paperwork. It's now 15 minutes passed my appointment time and I have not been acknowledged.

I wish this hospital would've helped my sister who has been in psychosis for two months, but instead they kept her for a weekend and called it good. How can you help someone with severe mental problems in two days with zero aftercare plans?? You can't. I even fought for her to stay longer but they dismissed my concerns. Mental health resources apparently are limited to people who are violent. Huge bummer.

I had an excellent outcome with an emergency appendectomy surgery at Porter in September. The emergency department tech , Blaise, got my IV started, blood draw and EKG within minutes. The ED doctor sent for for a scan which showed surgery Was needed .Dr. Conner performed surgery the same day. He is very gifted and the surgery went well. I was able to go home that night. The anesthesia was easy to recover from. All in all a very good and probable life saving ED visit with many caring and experienced staff.

Worst ER in town. Waited for 2 hours to see a doctor. Nurse left blood tests on the sink. When I asked about it, she asked, "Would you like me to send this in?" Ummm....

After having several seizures and head injuries I had to call 911 and my wife was taken to Porter Adventist Hospital she was treated with the top care in the emergency room the ICU and the 5th floor east these people Rock they really work hard they kept my wife alive and possibly I'm going to get to bring her home today and that's all thanks to the great care that she got from the doctors the nurses and the entire staff this is a great hospital and I would recommend anyone come to this hospital because you'll be treated right.

Appointment made for an x-ray on 4/14/23 for 4/17/23. I was told the Appointment was at 12:30 and to check in 15 earlier. I arrived at 12:15, checked in and waited til 1:10. Everyone in the waiting g room was complaining about their waiting time. So at 2:15 they call and want to know if I'm in the hospital. I said no I've left the hospital at 1:10. They try to tell me that my appointment was at 1pm and check in was 12:30. What a crock!!!!! They have zero respect for my time. I also told the hospital not to charge Medicare for a missed appointment or I'd turn them in. Everything was made my fault for them being late or because they can't get help because of the pandemic. I'm tired of being treated like this. Not the patients fault Porter Hospital!!!!

DO NOT TRUST DR HAWORTH WITH YOUR ANESTHESIA!!!!!!!! i hate that i am leaving a bad review because everything except for this one doctor was wonderful, but it needs to be brought to the attention of the hospital how terrible of a doctor this man is. He is reckless, cruel, judgmental with 0 regard to patient care. When he came to speak to us in preop It was obvious he had not read my husbands chart 1 HOUR BEFORE SURGERY!!! His excuse for not calling the day before like he was supposed to was "i got busy" Several nurses and our surgeon have apologized profusely about the way Dr Haworth treated my husband & me before he went in for his SPINAL FUSION. I will WARN every single person i meet who is considering this hospital about Dr Haworth & i will be filing a complaint with the medical board.

I had surgery here, and I was very happy with the entire process: check-in, pre-op, post-op, and discharge. The nursing staff are EXCELLENT, and so caring! I would definitely return here is I ever had to have another surgery!

Having had a quad-bypass open heart surgery (CABG) I feel qualified to comment on the quality of treatment and care I received at Porter Adventist Hospital. I will say my surgeon (who is able to Practice at Porter but directly affiliated) did an excellent job. However, the staff that did the opening and closing did a horrendous job. My scarring, nerve damage and misalignment of my chest closing left me with a half-inch scar down my chest and am an embarrassment to look at. Doctors that I see comment on this. The usual phrase is "shoddy workmanship". And in the ICU, with the exception of one male nurse I felt nearly abused. Especially coming out of anesthesia. In my opinion, if you need cardiac surgery RUN from this place to another. I spoke with someone who had a similar experience at Porter and her husband died while in recovery. Find a surgeon that practices elsewhere!

Went into the Mental Health Adult Unit, and the staff members we absolutely amazing literally love them all. Extremely helpful, caring, and easy to talk too. The clean part of hospital was pretty bad. The elevators were broken and one kind worked. The staff apologized about it and was kinda upset too. 4/5 Great staff, poor facility.

I would rate Porter Hospital as a zero if possible!! My dad has dementia and suffers from sundowners. He was brought to the hospital from his memory center after an episode of sundowners. When my dad entered the hospital he was talking, walking, feeding himself, etc. Due to the lack of care, and being told to stay in bed in fact told to "go to the bathroom in the bed", my dad has become weak. Despite our concerns of him not receiving his medications when ordered, not being helped out of bed to walk and gain his strength, let alone use the bathroom, the nurses and doctors continue to ignore my family. When we voice our concerns, we are told we are disrespectful and escorted out with security guards. What has happened to the medical field?? Nobody seems to care about helping people get better and get back to their lives. To the contrary, it appears that they just don't care and God help the dementia patient as nobody seems to care if they live or die... they are too difficult to care for. My family was told those exact words about my dad. My family is removing my dad asap from this hospital before they kill him. God help any other dementia patients that find themselves at Porter Hospital!!!

Porter hospital GI lab has unsafe medical practices. I did talk with Porter patient advocate with no follow up to any resolution for a month now. Porter Hospital GI Lab has some major safety issues that need to be addressed. Nurse did not return back to my room to check on me before my procedure.(no medical personnel came back into my room for 50 minutes) Was nauseous nurse was going to check with anthestologist for anti nauseous medication never saw the nurse again. No nurse or call light was available in the room - GI lab was just opened this option had not been installed in the patient rooms. I feel like this is a major safety issue due to being alone in my room for 50 minutes with no medical personnel if I have fallen or had a medical emergency while in the room no way to contact anyone for help. IV drip bag was laying on the bed for 40 minutes after using rest room no medical staff hooked it back up. Was not safe were the IV pole was situated on the bed. I would have to climb on the bed to hang the bag back up. No allergy wrist band was provided - did get a rash from the iv site due to tape allergy. Nurse did not take out my IV in the hospital upon discharge this is a major concern due to being at risk for infection. I noticed my arm was hurting I lifted up my sleeve on my way home from the hospital and saw the IV still attached into my arm. We contacted the GI lab to report this issue.

Absolute worst employees were nice but omg I had to wait almost a hour to get seen and then the nurse I had was awful took forever to take out IV stayed there for 4 hours just for them to tell me nothing was wrong even though my gums were obviously swollen and absolute waste of time I had to go to another hospital they didn't even prescribe me medication for my swollen gums gave me medicine there and told me I would be fine! No next day I woke up in extreme pain AWFUL AWFUL EXPERIENCE didn't even see doctor until 4 hours later!
