Lourdes Hospital: "your wait time is bullshit. we came in with 3 people ahead of us and have been here 3hr. Now there is about 10 or so people in here. We have seen 4 or 5 people that have been released by Dr. and only one go back and now they just called someone back that got here 1hr ago and yes I understand how it works. it was a little kid so I can over look that but I have already been told I was going to have at ct scan...well alot could of happened to me in the 3 hrs I've been out here. Yes this place is a joke and no one at the front knows anything but what is happening on tiktok. And I can't seem to get anyone out here to talke to me and you would think someone with half his ear cut off would be somewhT higher up to be seen.I would love for dr. or even the borad to explain why this is how this place work. I give this place a 2 fingers up rating." - Jeremy

Lourdes Hospital: "Worse experience ever, I’m sitting here with my son for over two hours now and they are just dragging their feet. Son got vitals taken and Cody the guy who took his vitals told me it should only be a few minutes for a room and its been over an hour. I was talking to the nurse at front desk telling her what he said then he came out and I pointed him out and Cody said well if I said that I was miss spoken. What a damn flunky. His place needs to fire everyone in it and get a staff that gives a shit. Karma will turn on them real soon, what goes around comes around." - Troy
