Marietta Memorial Hospital

"Just double check that all recommended tests are done if you end up in the ER here. The doctor didn’t order a test that would have given clearer answers and by the time we could schedule it back home, it was likely too late to show anything. Probably my own fault for not googling while in the hospital but if you end up there, definitely check “recommended tests for X injury or condition” to save yourself trouble down the road."

"From the nurses to the doctor , best hospital I have ever been to ! My husband is in the best hands he just had surgery here & the care is amazing. Very thankful to everyone who is here , very selfless , caring , great people"

"9/30/2023. 1:26AM. Blonde haired lady with several arm tattoos, sitting at a computer directly across from room 12 of the ER......"F" word can be heard clearly on numerous occasions and also talking about a 50 acre plot of land in Minnesota. We all goof off at our jobs from time to time but the language was ridiculous!"

"Emergency Room- not the best. They don’t keep you informed there’s no nurse button in case you have an emergency in your room. You can hear all the nurses gossip and make fun of people if you are close to the nurse station and if you get on the nurse bad side they do very petty things. I think the nurses lie that they talk to the doctors when you request to talk to the doctor they say they will talk to the doctor and let you know what the doctor says but after my stay there I really don’t think they communicated. Main 2nd Floor: single rooms are backward and very awkward to be in double rooms are more comfortable, and the layouts are standard. At the beginning of a stay there they are very attentive and very helpful, which is a shock after being down and their emergency room the difference in care. However, when it’s time to check out and they are ready for you to go, they can be rude. My experience was they gave me a medicine that was four times the dose of my normal prescribed medicine as a result I was very dizzy and lethargic so the nurses assumed I was high and I asked him what did you give me that made me this way and they said well. What did you take? By asking that question they were inferring that I took some thing illegal and snuck it into the hospital. I did not appreciate the inference that I was a drug user, and after making them show me what they gave me I discovered they gave me the wrong dose of my medicine, so instead of the escalating the situation and apologizing for the air, whether was intentional or not, they continue to argue with me, so I was their voice is rose so did mine so they decided to call security on me for verbal aggression and I said where is the security for their verbal aggression? I refused to sign my discharge orders because they refused to show me where they got the information that my dosage was four times my normal amount , and that they were sending me home with being at risk for falling when I was obviously completely dizzy and can barely lift my head but again they were rude and not only did he send one card they sent three for me who was in a wheelchair and couldn’t even walk. They told me to take a medicine that was counteractive with my current medicines and I had pointed out that the doctor even said that and they said well the doctor said it’s OK now and I said wow I think I need a new doctor if people don’t know what I’m taking and how it interacts with my other medicines, you say one day it will be so dangerous and the next day you say that it’s all right poor service from this place. I will never go here again even if I’m dying, let me go die in a different an emergency room that I have the hopes of being treated with some respect and dignity."
