Mercy San Juan Medical Center: "I would not recommend this hospital. They don't listen to the patient. They make judgments not on symptoms or facts. They deny care if not wearing a mask even though the patient has been passing out." - M

Mercy San Juan Medical Center: "ER staff are very bad. He doesn’t have customer services skill or he might discriminate because I am a Vietnamese lady.
I don’t know the name of the the person who is siting in the front door at 12:15am, 8/31/2020. I am just asking him to put my daughter’s wheelchair away from other patient to keep 6 feet apart from each other but he refused and said there is no room. He didn’t even try to look around and resolve the problem. There was only 4 Patients in the ER room at that moment. Did hospital provide basic training for staff to protect patients and protect themself?
I am very disappoint with your staff. On top of that we were waiting more than 4 hours and we are still waiting.
I wish we don't have to come back to this ER." - Lien
