Johnston Memorial Hospital: "Sitting in ER with my father who has had a severe nose bleed since having sinus surgery a 9 AM this morning. We are now on HOUR 2 in the waiting room with the SAME 5 PEOPLE! One poor girl has already had CT scan and xrays and has been sitting out in waiting room for 2 hours waiting for results. I have NEVER experienced such a disaster of a hospital. Should have gone to a HMG FACILITY. BALLAD SHOULD BE SHUT OUT" - Yada

Johnston Memorial Hospital: "
If you get COVID 19...DON'T GO THERE! Dr. Manfredonia is very unprofessional. He became enraged and started screaming at me when inquiring about my care. He also falsified my final discharge papers because I walked out of this horrible place after not being treated after 24 hrs after admitted for covid pneumonia. They stated on dc papers that they did treat and that they discharged oxygen (which are TOTALLY untrue and to cover their but. They also stated that I was leaving because I couldn't walk around the hospital, which is also TOTALLY untrue. I waited in the parking lot for a direct admit room . These ppl wanted me to have a seat in er lobby.. they knew i was positive for covid. This would expose alot of innocent ppl. Why the heck would i want to walk around. My oxygen when I left was 72 and I had to use my asthma inhaler to be able to breathe a WEEK later. DONT TRUST THESE PEOPLE WITH YOUR LIFE! You are safer on your own! The ONLY Reason this is 1 star is because I can't give it a ZERO!

Johnston Memorial Hospital: "I brought my Husband in at 2am with chest and back pain and difficult breathing. EKG and xray done. Dr said it's a pulled muscle or back injury. Sent us home. I took him for another xray the next day and his Doctor called to tell us he has PNEUMONIA. the ER Doctor seemed unconcerned about my husband's condition and with all that training someone is supposed to have can't even read an xray. Said EKG showed light heart attack but didn't keep him for 24 hr observation. They are incompetent!!
