I was transferred from Madison ER to Walker Baptist Medical Center after a suicide attempt around new year’s. I knew that I was having a bad reaction to the SSRI Prozac that I had been taking for about 6 months. However the doctor who observed me for 3 minutes came to the conclusion that I was somehow Bipolar. After being treated for mental health conditions since 2005, not once was I considered to have Bipolar disorder. To make matters worse, the Adderall that I was prescribed daily for over 15 years wasn’t administered in the unit. The excuse that I was given was (we don’t do controlled

Terrible service. We have been here for 2 hours and the doctor came in after waiting an hour. He left and was supposed to order an IV and tests but after waiting another hour still havent seen anyone. I went to the nurses station only to be ignored by 3 people standing around talking, and 2 people at the desk. Even after saying "Excuse me" they wouldn't even look up at me. I finally walked down further to a young man propped back in his chair with his arms behind his head. I told him we had waited 2 hours and no one was helping us. He said it was a shift change and someone would be with us shortly

Walker Baptist has always had a poor name, everyone that lives within a 50 mile radius knows that. However, when you’re searching for help for your loved one in an emergency situation, you’ll take them anywhere close. That’s how I ended up at WBMC with my husband. We waited in the emergency room for hours as I pleaded with the receptionist that my husband was near fainting from difficultly breathing. The time I spent pleading I could have spent on the road taking him to Birmingham, I should have. My husband spent 2 days at Walker Baptist in the ICU with difficulty breathing, they were rude

Took my friend to the Emergency room. We were there for three hours and she wasn't even triaged. Some people were even there hours before us and had not been seen. Couldn't give us any information about how long of a wait it would be. We left and went to Gardendale and was back home two hours later. This place just sucks.

Went to the Urgent Care and my blood pressure was 70/50, in horrible pain and had lost my vision. They said I was critical and needed to go to hospital by ambulance. My wife wanted me sent to Princeton but they said I probably wouldn’t make it. Taken to ER and finally saw a doctor 4 1/2 hours later. He sent me for a CT scan. I had an AAA Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm that was ready to burst. Doctor ordered the helicopter and I quickly arrived at UAB and was rushed immediately into surgery. By all rights I should have died in the ER waiting to see a doctor. Many thanks to Dr. Pearce and Jake in the

Upon my arrival by the paramedics, I overheard the ER attending physician ask where I was coming from and then say, "nothing good comes from Nauvoo". I was at a Level 10 pain due to a kidney stone. I was left alone and unattended for hours. No bed pan. No blanket until the end. It took several hours to get pain relief and then that was it. The nurse asked me where my phone was to call someone to come get me and laughed when I said I didn't have it because I came in a ambulance. Unfortunately due to Graves Disease I have been in many hospitals across the world (UK included) and this was the worse

My mother was sent there in May 2018. Supposedly to just stay until a bed became ready at Mary Starke Harper in Tuscaloosa to be treated for Bipolar Manic Episodes. When she got there she walked in, knew how to use a cell phone, was totally independent. While she was there she was sedated all the time even by nursing aides in Geriatric. We had continually ask when we visited if she was being sedated because we could open her eyes and her pupils were nearly as small as a pen point. And the answer was no.. it was obvious it was a lie. One day during a meeting with the head RN with my father, brother
