St Lukes Quakertown Hospital Stories

St Lukes Quakertown Hospital: "Visited Nov 26, 2025 – Worst urgent care experience ever. Waited 3 hours total. Sick patients mixed with drug testing and workers’ comp—no triage, high infection risk. Check-in was a mess despite online forms; only one receptionist working while the other was told not to help. Leadership is unresponsive—Office Manager Alexis refused to share contact info for feedback. Nurse Tessa tried to help but was stopped by admin staff Santina prioritizing control over care. Long waits, poor leadership, zero accountability. Patients should come first, but they don’t here." - D
