Ascension Seton Edgar B. Davis

Hospital isn’t amazing but my nurse is exceptionally amazing. His name is Save and has been here for 15 years and he goes above and beyond and these 5 stars are all for him. I wish I could vote for him best nurse or something. The doctor was amazing as well

Went in last week and the dr and staff were amazing. Two days later my hand suddenly became worse with swelling and pain. I went back up there as was instructed by the first dr if it worsened. This time was horrible. The dr saw me a total of 15 mins. Long enough to stick a needle to shoot a local anesthetic then immediately started opening up the wound and pushing out blood that was built up. Said I was good and left. The nurse came in only to realize I hadn’t even been bandaged up. Worse part was finding out afterwards my teenage son had walked into the er to use the bathroom and heard me scream in pain from the dr jamming the needle into my hand. Poor kid turned around n walked back out bc he’d never heard me in that kind of pain before and got scared there was something seriously wrong. Sad part is, at that time I thought the dr actually helped me. Until not even 48 hours passed and my hand got worse. Suddenly swelling up more and feeling like there was someone holding a flame on my thumb in less than an hour span of time. After the last visit I was terrified of any doctor looking at it and going thru the treatment for it again. Luckily pain won out and I was taken to seguin’s emergency dept. Amazing difference in treatment. The staff, nurses and doctor were all compassionate and took their time alleviating my fears from my last experience. I was in tears over believing that’s I’d go thru that same situation again. The nurse made let me know right away that, that isn’t how it was supposed to be done properly. The doctor took his time to properly numb me and letting it set in before attempting to touch my hand. I really appreciate the extra care they took to make sure I was calm beforehand. The previous dr jabbed me and squeezed my hand till bruising, this doctor cut into my hand made sure everything was cleared out before cleaning the incision and covering the wound w bandages all while explaining what and why he was doing each step. Ironically my hand hurt less over this procedure hours after it happened than with the prior visit at ascension’s er. In luling I was first treated for cellulitis in my thumb, then a wound. In seguin I found out it was a felon that had become infected Bc it wasn’t treated properly or prescribed the right antibiotics. At luling the dr told me if it got worse to go to a hand specialist he recommended in buds and not back to the er. He even repeated it twice. It felt like he took more time and care emphasizing if anything suddenly got worse I needed to see this hand surgeon than he did about my hand in front of him. Seguin’s er told me to follow up with my primary physician but to come back if symptoms worsened before my appt. I’d never recommend this place after the treatment I received last time. The only relief I’ll be getting from there is from my wallet paying a bill that did nothing but prolonged my pain and could have ended up allowing an infection to spread further into my body’s bloodstream or turn septic if the pain hadn’t have forced me back into another er.

Awfully cold , uncaring, and unhelpful. I honestly hate the attitude of the staff here. If I could do something about it legally about it, I definitely would. I recommend not bringing a loved one here.

I went to the ER tonight, because I was vomiting blood. The Dr didn't even care. Asked if I ever had my stomach checked out. I told her no. But she ONLY offered me anti-nausia meds. So, when I die, which doesn't seem will take long, sue the heck outta them, plz!nUsually this ER is great. But not tonight. Female Dr. Fron Germany. Not sure the name. Prob easy to find out tho.

I’m going to give an overview...my step-grandmother (AN ELDERLY PERSON)was recently admitted to this hospital for a severe breathing condition. She was allowed to be released by a local doctor that works with the hospital & has a local practice with home health assistance. Therefore against family wishes & opinions she was taken home late in the afternoon. THE NEXT MORNING- home health came to see her- the nurse immediately told her you need to get back to the hospital!! Oh yes back to hospital therefore family took her back quickly- this is the same place that had just let her leave not 12 hours before! Went to ER, waited hours to see a doctor... finally discovered that THERE WASN'T A DOCTOR AVAILABLE ud83eudd2fud83dude31‼ufe0f SO THERE IS A HOSPITAL WITH AN EMERGENCY ROOM & HOSPITAL BEEING RAN WITH NO DOCTOR AVAILABLE TO TREAT?!?nnShe finally got readmitted to the hospital ( also got told had no bed available). This entire time she was asking for cough syrup & something for the pain she was enduring because of her severe deep cough that had never stopped even when she was released not 24 hours before. The nursing staff said they could only do so much & NO DOCTOR WAS AVAILABLE to prescribe anything ‼ufe0fud83dude35ud83eudd2f. SO AN EXTREMELY WEAK, FRAIL ELDERLY PERSON IS SUPPOSED TO JUST WAIT UNTIL A DOCTOR DECIDES TO SHOW?!? I don’t think so!!’ There is such a thing as doctor on call but according to nurses no doctor would come in!!!!!!! MORE THAN FOUR HOURS AFTER BEING ADMITTED A NURSE WAS FINALLY ABLE TO GET SOME DOCTOR TO AUTHORIZE AT LEAST COUGH SYRUP. Family and patient was told there was an Issue with pharmacy then doctor approval then pharmacy back & forth. Can we say NEGLECT TO AN ELDERLY! This isn’t the whole story- it ended up being almost MIDNIGHT before she got anything to help. She asked if she could possibly get something to eat since she had had NOTHING the entire time she had been at the ER OR IN THE HOSPITAL- the comment was the cafeteria is closed! Ok anything sandwich something would be great. Nurse finally said all we have would be a microwave meatloaf or turkey meal!nnTHIS IS A DISGRACE ALL AROUND; WE REALIZE A NURSE CAN ONLY DO WHAT THEY ARE ALLOWED TO DO. BUT GIVE ME A BREAK IF THIS WAS DONE TO THIS ELDERLY PERSON THAT WAS SEVERELY ILL HOW MANY OTHER ELDERLY PEOPLE OR JUST PEOPLE IN GENERAL HAS THIS HAPPENED TO????nnIn closing, my step grandmother finally asked “WHAT WOULD Y’ALL DO IF I WAS DYING???” She NEVER got a response ‼ufe0fud83dude35ud83eudd2fud83dude24ud83dude20nnSomething has to be done. No one will be able to convince this was an isolated incident!!nnPlease before you go to this hospital TRY to get to another one anywhere!☹ufe0fud83dude14ud83eudd75ud83dude20‼ufe0f‼ufe0fnnSIGNED: EXTREMELY FURIOUS FAMILY MEMBERS OF AN ELDERLY FAMILY MEMBER
