St Elizabeth Hospital: "We identified my husband as having a kidney stone he is unable to pass, and being in horrific pain. He has Sat here for 1.5 hours, he is patient #4. A nurse finally come out and audibly goes through the cases being presented, idetifying who is going to be treated first making comments on individual health issue. What happened to HIPPA?! The nurse actually identified pt. #4 as being diabetic, not as urgent as though he is vomiting, his blood sugar is high not low and he won't die from that...but he is a man. Wow, UNPROFESSIONAL. COLD. " - VICTORIANA
