The new building is fantastic. Yes there are long lead times at the clinics that needs to be addressed but unfortunately the workload of caring for so many indigent and Medicaid patients takes a large amount of resources. Dr Beomone Kim is absolutely one of the finest men and surgeons I have ever met.
I have had private insurance now for two years and can seek services from any hospital or physician in Louisiana. UMC is still my preferred health care facility of choice. Sure it needs some refinement in the appointment waiting issues but I haven't any plans on going elsewhere!!
It's a very nice hospital, they took care of my friend that has cancer very well, prompt response to get him what he needed!
I was told that I didn't have an emergency without being examined whatsoever.....I have pain in my mouth and the "doctor" is assuming that there's nothing possible the ER can do! When she hasn't even taken as much as an x-ray before she " diagnosed " me!!! So my question is if you don't examine anything how can you be sure of what I do or do not have!!
UMC is my preferred health facility. In 2014 I was diagnosed and had surgery for oral cancer. At that time I was uninsured and did not have a choice. All the surgeons, physicians and stall were great. There was and still are a couple of personnel that should be removed and replaced but that happens at any large facility, be it at any public hospital or a commercial business.
Pathetic
Last time I checked you can't tell what's wrong by just looking at it? Do doctors have x-ray vision now days and are apparently psychic
I've been to the er several times not all for myself. The staff is friendly and helpful. However today i am having 3 mri's done. Due to the fact i am claustrophobic i have tried to find pictures of the machines they use so i know how much i need to pre medicate. I have not been able to find any thing to go by. Just praying my head isn't in there too long as its a 3 he l hour procedure. Wish me luck!
There are a great number of excellent individuals who carry the workload. But when you settle on nepotism, excellence is only hindered. And without any accountability or work standards, we might as well perpetuate the standard of Louisiana being ranked near the bottom 10% of education-and-the-like.
Remove the bluetooth and mindless wandering of the employee who does nothing for an hour. Then we might rise and move forward as a hospital and a state.
