In patients' words

"This hospital is terrible... The nurses don’t care either. They don’t care to hear what’s wrong with you. No one in there does."

— TrustReviewers user review

"The staff was great. They made it so we could worry less about my mom. The nurses were great on taking care of her and made her feel welcome... The doctors that did her surgery kept us well informed."

"I was medically gaslit the entire time, to the point that I was afraid to ever trust a doctor again."
