Margaretville Memorial Hospital: "My experience with Margaretville Hospital was absolutely terrible. I went there with a deep laceration in my arm which had dirt and other debris in it. The staff washed out my wound, stitched me up, and sent me on my way. They did not however give me a tetanus shot despite me being due for one, they did not prescribe antibiotics despite just rinsing dirt off the bone of my arm, and after developing a sever infection and undergoing emergency surgery back in my home town I learned they had left pebbles in my arm as well as used non-dissolvable stitches inside my arm. For the sake of your own life never trust Margaretville hospital to properly take care of you." - Jason
