Rachael Phillips I went into the ER a few days ago after experiencing vision loss and eye swelling. Without examining me, a medical professional who I believe (was named Michelle) walked into the room, took one look at me and told me to simply try hot compresses. At this point, the swelling was so extreme I could hardly keep my eye open. Despite explaining that I had already been trying hot compresses for weeks, despite explaining that I had been through two courses of antibiotics, and despite that I was in severe pain, I was told simply to do more hot compresses. I was also told that my antibiotics were pointless and that this could not be solved with antibiotics. I left, feeling as though I was “wasting their time”, only to go to bed and wake up unable to see in my right eye at all. I had severe swelling, and upon visiting a different ER, they were shocked and frustrated on my behalf. I had an amazing team of three professionals who were very attentive and actually examined me. They rushed me into contrast CT, marked me as a ESI 2, and prescribed me a very high dose of antibiotics. Long story short, based on the swelling I was experiencing, I was at risk for vision loss and much worse, but rather than being examined, I was met with a medical professional who never got closer to 4 feet away from me, and told me that I shouldn’t be on vision saving medication. I am shocked and disappointed to say the least, and the cherry on top was that even though I was rushed out and made to feel as if I was wasting time, I was the only patient (not an expression, LITERALLY) in the entire waiting room. Overall, though I am generally disappointed in the health care system, I was remarkably disappointed in this facility.

Bill DeConna Best ER visit ever. Great staff, got me in quickly, Doctor came in and assessed the situation, did a couple of tests and prescribed treatment. I am feeling much better and very thankful for the expert and courteous staff at the HCA Gainesville ER. I highly recommend. couldnt have been a better experience. thanks!

Marlee Cain I was taken in very quickly, and the bed-side manner from all staff that I interacted with was awesome! Dr. Gillette and all of the nurses are wonderful. They all took my concerns seriously and were very thorough in their testing and I appreciated that so much. Now I am set up with a specialist and am on my way to a treatment plan!

alondra pena Here is my story. I came to this emergency room on Saturday January 11 with my roomate. The PA was very helpful, informative, and actually was doing her job. She told me that if my symptoms kept on occurring after taking my medicine twice to report back to the emergency room. So two days later (January 13) my symptoms kept on happening back to back and my parents were like go to the emergency room. So I went with my roomate and this time I didn’t get the PA I got a DO instead. I told the DO what the PA on Saturday told me that if I keep on having my symptoms even when I’m taking the medication to come back to the emergency room and that’s why I’m here. She basically tells me that I shouldn’t have gone to the emergency room, that my symptoms weren’t considered an emergency. That I should have gone to the ENT instead and I was like excuse me. The reason I’m here is because your fellow co-worker told me to come back if my symptoms kept on happening. Then after her ranting on how I shouldn’t be at the emergency room, she proceeded to get lab work done. I clearly told her I didn’t want lab work done and she still got me to do lab work. And that’s funny cause you tell me that I shouldn’t be at the emergency room but proceeds to get lab work done. At the end of the day I wasted nearly 3 hours at that emergency room, when I could’ve not gotten the lab work because “supposedly my health is not worthy of the emergency room”. Also there was literally only three patients in the whole emergency department. I was really disappointed in the emergency room and I will not be going back there. I will be going to Shands from now on. But the PA who attended me on that Saturday will always have my appreciation. So please if you want doctors who is their to actually help you and give you feedback on your health than I recommend going to a different emergency room. It’s not worth your time to be treated that way. Taking for reading my experience.
