In patients' words
"The front desk lady gave weird and unwelcoming vibes... I saw 3 different nurses before I finally saw one of the doctors. They left me alone in a room for 1.5 hours... It was by far the most bizarre, confusing, and uncomfortable experience I've had at a hospital."
— LocalityBiz user review of Boone County Hospital"Will double bill and can't get billing correct. Will threaten to send you to collections and at the same time send you a check. Worst billing department I have ever had contact with. BEWARE!"
