Texas Health Harris Methodist Fort Worth: "I wish 2 hr and 48 min was accurate at Harris southwest. One time I had horrible back spasms and waited without attention for 4 hours to be called back to be forgotten about and left in hall before a nurse, not same one who led me back an hour prior and said he would be right back finally got me relief. Another time is tonight still waiting we got here at 9pm and little to nobody in waiting room but still waiting to see dr 2 and a half hours later!!!!! I swear I think I was forgotten about as people with less severe issues are being brought back for treatment and still waiting!!!!!" - R.
