Virtua Health & Wellness Center - Camden

The emergency room sucks I don't know you I can talk to about these people BUT IF U LOVE YOUR FAMILY DON'T COME HERE

This is in regards to the Emergency Dept.! Horrible I went in with bad chest pain on my left side that radiated into my shoulder blade and left arm. I could also here like creaking noises when I bent down and got up as well when I turned or twisted. I waited like 5 days before going as it became really bad. A doctor comes into the room and tells me it has to be nothing I was way too young to be having any serious issues and discharged me. No X-ray, No listening to my chest, nothing. I went home and waited 2 more days where pain increased 5 fold and I had trouble catching my breath and bad pain if I breathed in deeply where I would here crackling noises. Went to Virtual Voorhees they were packed had me in a chair in the back they sent me for an x-ray. Literally ten minutes I see a bunch of doctors running down the hall with an empty bed they tell me to get on and rush me to a private room. I apparently was suffering from a Spontaneous Pneumothorax which is basically your lung collapsed on its own. It was over 75% collapsed and they had to cut my chest open with me awake and insert a chest tube which was a horrific experience. Basically when I went into Camden ER my lung was already collapsed about 20% and you can die from this but since they did no test and told me it was in my head and I was too young they missed an opportunity that would have possibly saved me from the trauma of having a chest tube put in. 3 weeks in the hospital finally got out and two weeks later my lung collapsed again but went straight to Voorhees in total 7 lung collapses in both right & left lungs that could have all been prevented if Camden ER actually did something. Btw they were quick to send me a $1550 bill for that visit as well as I had no insurance. Now with a preexisting condition no one wants to insurance me they would quote me prices over 2k a month. Thanks to Obama Care I have insurance!

Nurse Helena, Jenn , Gabrielle , Aisha and Trish were excellent!! exactly how i wanted my first child experience to be the food was decent..only makor problem i had was the maintenance guy ..seems like he didnt want do his job ..but im not going to let him ruin the hospital and the nurses good service. thank you guys so much for the wonderful experience especially since this is a one time thing!!!

I just have to say from the bottom of my heart, I’m grateful for the doctors and nurses who took care of me when I was in the E.R. I was treated like a priority and that’s hard to come by these days in healthcare. They addressed all my needs in a timely manner. I would highly recommend this hospital to anyone. It was worse the 20 minute drive and $5.00 bridge toll.

Great customer service & knowledgeable staffud83dude42
