Buddhist Tzu Chi General Hospital Emergency Room

I love Tzu Chi Hospitals. They have so much compassion, and passion for loving and for the well being of people. The organization is meek and full of love. Thank you for your service of love and care at times when I have most needed it. I love you guys. May God continue to bless you all with His fruits. I pray these things in the name of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Amen.

My mom had a very bad pain in her abdominal region, and had to wait for the hospital to start checking people in. (Edit: She already had to wait over an hour at the hotel, as it was located up on a hill and her conditioned has already worsened). Literally, watched 3-4 other people out on the sick beds by the entrance (seeing the injuries, I can assume it’s a car accident that happened momentarily) AND YOU CALL THIS A EMERGENCY ROOM? Horrible, and I mean this is one of the worst hospital who were ill prepared for this occasion and are not capable of handling big amount of emergency cases.nnHIGHLY WILL NOT RECOMMEND

Tzu Chi is known for its kind and friendly service to patients and family members. However, if you are from overseas and calling to your family members who are hospitalize. Then it is hard to communicate with them due to lack of English proficiency of customer service facility in the hospital. This creates a lot of problem even though you are trying to contact your dearest and closest family members. I HOPE in the near future we can get BETTER CUSTOMER SERVICE since Tzu Chi is a reputed hospital with many foreign patients.

I made an appointment to see a specialist, the director of the department, upon recommendation from other doctors in the area. Ultimately I didn't leave with any additional recommendations or knowledge, there was no privacy, the doctor didn't seem very concerned with really understanding my issue, everything was very rushed (consultation and examination took 4-5 minutes total), prescribed medication seems to have worsened the problem, and it kind of felt like a big waste of time and money.

Horrible doctors. They never talked to me about anything. I didn't know if I was supposed to do physical therapy or when I was supposed to get the hardware they put in taken out.
