Then the wait time will vary by severity, and how busy the ER is at the time of day. Patients with less serious problems could have substantially longer waits.

: "OSU ER : 16 hours and still waiting for a psychiatrist to check us out. Patient distress is long past and a responsible adult there to verify but we can’t leave because there is one Psych doc for the entire hospital. Given the number of people who experience mental disorders this is absurd. Absolutely the worst experience for us and it never changes. OSU clearly does not care about the experience psychiatric patients have to endure when they enter their doors." - Columbus

: "Sent to Hospital by our primary physician, went to St Thomas and after just seeing a couple of nurses only we waited over 3 hours and still not seen a doctor. 80 years old COPD, CHF. and here for pneumonia and difficulty breathing. Staff condescending and unhelpful. Seat in waiting room and freeze and told too bad go somewhere else and wait more so sit and shut up or go suffer." - Gregory
