Cedar Park Regional Medical Center: "Cedar Park Regional Medical Center billed me incorrectly and refused to rebill it correctly to include my second insurance carrier. Me and my insurance company attempted working it out with them many times, but their billing department was unwilling to work with us. Then they sued me for the less than $2000 owed. It has been a nightmare of years dealing with them. I would recommend driving to the next hospital if you want to avoid a financial headache." - Elizabeth

Cedar Park Regional Medical Center: "This hospital ER department in my experience, was neglectful because I waited over 17 hours for the physician to order an antibiotic that was the whole purpose of me staying overnight in the er for. I kept asking the nurses, who would constantly change, about the status of my treatment and they would just say they would check on it but literally nothing happened till I was moved to the med-surg floor. Will never go back." - Madison
