I sat for over 2 hours in a waiting room with no word on my husband, who was there for a 20 minute procedure. They wouldn’t let me go back with him, even though he was just sitting and waiting for them to get their stuff together. The receptionist left for the day, turning the heat down before doing so. So I was alone in a freezing room, waiting on an update that never came. Apparently there were some issues getting everything organized for his procedure so he didn’t go in for almost 2 1/2 hours. I wandered around till I found a nurse to find out what was going on; all she would say is that he had just gone back. Back to the freezing waiting room, alone.
I’m not at all impressed with this hospital.
To begin with, we were never told where to go for my husband’s procedure, so we parked in the structure closest to our doctor’s clinic only to find out we were a long way from where we needed to be. We waited on a shuttle that never came, and decided just to walk and find it on our own.
In regards to the neurosurgeon or spine clinic at UAMS: I hope the way that Dr. Pait treated me today isn't they way he would treat his own family. To have such disregard to a patient's need for care is less than what is expected in my eyes of the medical field. The medical field is where we as people turn to for guidance and direction to better our health, wellness, and ability to promote the return to the most normal activities of our daily living. Dr. Pait stated, "It's not my job to find someone that performs the alternative methods aside from surgery". Team collaboration is where it all begins to help find the best care plan and least invasive procedure for the most optimistic outcome. You have failed, in my opinion, of caring for and listening to your patient.
After he was taken to recovery, I tried to speak to the nurse and ask some questions about aftercare, but she was more interested in bantering with the male nurses. She sat with her foot on his bed and rocked it back and forth while she played on her phone. Then she jerked his IV out and said “Sucks, doesn’t it”. Our doctor there is great, but I’m still stunned at the complete lack of professionalism and bedside manner that we experienced from everyone else.
I just had a baby a month ago it was horrible. This was my 1st born in Arkansas and I can't believe how bad of an experience I had. I was told I was high risk then had a resident do my entire operation my cut is a mess! It wasn't an emergency but still my cut is not straight has many spots if uneven and I was cut quarter of an inch above my previous cut for no reason. If I knew I would have had it end like this I would not have gone. The hospital is very old for the recovery rooms I had kids born in the early 2000s and had better facilities. I am totally disappointed and still can't get over how bad my experience was which it's done and over now and I'm the one who has to felt with how it was done. I was totally brushed off. I would r3comment any e to go anywhere else.
This is the best hospital I have been in my whole life!!! The staff is the most coolest and sweetest people I have ever meet. The Doctors have been for me and answered my every question. I know god had a reason to send me here so my son Eli will get the best care
Worst hospital I have ever been at in my life! The doctors and nurses both never check on their patient's you can lay in pain for hours with no help from any medical staff. But one things for sure the person who comes in for the billing information u will see them till they have all the right information to bill you.
