But when the next check in attendant came in at 7pm. I feel that a personal vendetta occurred. I waited till 9:45 and while freezing. Along with other complaining er people waiting I finally walked out and told the hostile receptionist I would just got to lake havasu hospital to be seen. I had severe pain in groin and kidney area. My blood pressure wa elevated to 187/90 usually 130/80. On a pain scale of 1-10 I stated it was 8-9. There were at least 6 came in after me and taken back.
