Orchard Hospital Stories

Biggs Gridley Memorial Hospital: "This hospital is basically a nursing home with a poorly ran urgent care (supposed ER). They violate the law constantly by asking patients to sign AMA forms and ask people to leave to drive to another hospital when they can’t treat you. That is illegal! Poorly ran, hospital desperately needs to be remodeled and updated. Staff is rude and incompetent. They can’t help you! This hospital should be closed!" - FR
