Oak Hill Hospital: "This place is a horror. Partner has stage 4 lung cancer. She entered hospital 12/27 with pneumonia and low blood count. Released on 1/6 with no improvement and none of the promised home health assistance. Back in ER on 1/17. In ER 28 hours. No masking. Little intervention. Back in ICU with worse pneumonia wnd heart failure. No effort to make patient comfortable. Do not come to this place!" - Michael

Oak Hill Hospital: "Worst emergency room experience ever. The doctor was just barely below imbecilic--misdiagnosing my condition & frightening me needlessly for many hours before a correction was made. The staff in the ER were unprofessional--eating candy bars & discussing the ineptitude of other departments while patients were left to languish in pain. Waited nearly 4 hours before I was give anything for my pain which was excruciating as I had diverticulitis. Many more hours and an overnight in an overflow room near a lunatic drug overdosed patient screaming & cursing loudly before I was finally given a room. " - Angela
