Regions Hospital: "I tried to review my recent visit but wasn't able to finish due to not enough space, so I guess that's one disappointment. My visit- 9/23/21 - I arrived at 1:00 p.m. and prepared to wait but there was only a few people waiting so I didn't think it would be long.-- To make a long story short I sat and waited, and waited. Many people came and went. I knew the more drastic cases would be seen first. I'm very good at that. I know everyone works very hard and so I waited again. Hours passed--- I wasn't seen until 7:30!! Again, I love this hospital and in this time of covid I fully understand the work load these wonderful employees face. By that time my pain was threw the ceiling.- But finally noticed I was still there, I was tended to. My case was attended to by wonderful people. I know they felt bad and that I shouldn't have to wait that long. I was very tired -and hungry-they gave me a sandwich. -Please- Everyone there works too hard and I know they care I only hope they receive compensation-more employees or other perks. I love Regions and wouldn't go to any other hospital." - Cheryl
