: "Hinsdale Hospital - November 9, 2023. Wife arrives at 3 pm called from wait room at 7:10 pm. At 6:30 pm, they inform her they have a few critical cases and cannot estimate how much longer. People have left that arrived during this time. I (her husband) came back at 7 pm and witnessed three ambulances (private service) arrive at the same time.
Busiest we’ve ever seen inside Hinsdale ER.
Learned Elmhurst publishes their wait time. Was 31 minutes at 6:30 and dropped to 25 minutes at 7:15 pm.
Never again at Hinsdale Hospital unless I dont have a choice because of the ambulance driver!" - Alan

: "Waited at the Vanderbilt ER after being laced with Cocaine and was never seen. I was freaking out because obviously I’ve never done Coke and the side effects were scary and unexpected. I was genuinely panicking in the waiting room and almost passed out from hyperventilating. I ended up waiting so long that I made it through the whole high, eventually calmed down on my own, and drove myself home. Apparently a coke high doesn’t last that long (thank God) but is really scary and intense…especially when you aren’t expecting it. Emotionally scarred forever." - DW

: "I waited 11 hours with chest pain. I went to Shands ER with chest pain and shortness of breath. I waited from 1300 Hrs Thursday Oct 12, until about 0100 Hrs Friday Oct 13 before I saw a Doctor. They drew blood and performed a chest x-ray in-between. They told me nothing, and shamed me when I complained. " - Shannon
