Saint Anthony Medical Center Stories
Mar 26, 2021, 10:19 PM
Saint Anthony Medical Center: "3/25 waited four hours worth my 89 year old father. Had a vitals exam and did a ct can and X-ray . Never made it back to an exam room to get results. My father was very upset about waiting for so long and with his neuropathy, was in significant discomfort, tho we were there for sudden onset of confusion and speech problems. The next day we were notified that the X-ray showed fluid in his lung, advised to go back to the ER for evaluation. After ANOTHER four hours, we signed out again with no care whatsoever.
