Flagstaff Medical Center: "Went to the ER for a post surgery blood clot that developed in my leg. Been waiting in the ER for over 6 hours and still no end in sight. Some other patients I have spoken to have been waiting almost 12 hours!! This is outrageous!! Good thing my blood clot hasn't traveled up to my lungs yet.... Not to mention spring here 5 days after shoulder surgery and not offered even a drink of water. Worst hospital experience of my life" - David
