Waited two hours with my wheel chair bound 87 year old mother to be picked up. But, they never showed. I called twice and the nursing home called a number of times. Each time they said they would come in 15-20 minutes. The last time called, I was told they would be pulling up any minute. Still no AMED! So frustrated with them, I chose to wheel my mother back the four blocks back to the nursing home rather than subject her to the pain of waiting in a cold waiting room.

The worst..I have been waiting with my 86yr. old wheelchair bound mother, to go from doctor office to nursing home. I called 30 min after the initial request, and was told it would only be a little while longer. We are now at 45 min later and still no transport. I'll keep updating this until someone comes. Initial call 11:30am., it is now 12:45pm.Van did not arrive until 1:09pm. So, my 86 year old wheelchair bound mother had to wait for an hour and 39 minutes for the ride. This company should be fined, or have its permits/license revoked. I hope to never have to use them again. I complained to
