Lompoc Valley Medical Center

"Best service I swear, I personally had an EXCELLENT time. Everyone was just so professional and i felt like my health was the most important thing to the staff at all times. Made it so much easier to recover and move on. Shout out to an amazing ER team. The doctors were excellent and Samantha(Sam) and Lyanna(the best person, But I only saw them for a bit so i might be getting their name wrong) The staff in my room were just as good. Dr.Raoufi was always a pleasure to work with, the Hospital Nutritionalist was super helpful and informative. The nursing staff was a UNIT let me tell you. Shout out to Christian,Patty,Bella. And my dude Angela (the angel of Mercy). Just such a great crew. Also, the student assistant Chealsea was professional and doing some of the most on point checks ive ever had. I learned so much from her in the short time we met. Didnt feel like I was in pain once here. I hope I never need to come back, but if i do i know ill be in some good hands. Also....the food was excellent the whole time. People dont appreciate a good thing sometimes."

"Fast lines Nd Registration is a breeze. Staff always has a smile on their faces when I come for tests done. Radiology has one of the nicest staff"

"Went in on a Wednesday evening with broken knee and pulled tendons from knee to my toes, there was no physician available , put me in a brace and told me to call an outside Dr. On the following Tuesday. I called Wednesday a.m and was told I had waited too long and they couldn't help me, even though I was instructed to do so, . The Dr. then told me MORAL OF MY STORY, WE DONT HAVE A HOSPITAL IN Lompoc, we have a place for your physician to rent and use the high tech equipment , and not an actual E.R . Funny thing, I thought only real doctors were qualified to read your X-rays....not the nurses in training, not the X-ray techs. , but the Doctor. 2 nd time I've gone to see no doctor there at all to handle that kind of emergency. Now if I had a bad tooth ,or a weird rash, or cough, they can give you antibiotics and a couple pain pills. I left hospital with no pants on at midnight, a blanket around my waist , because they cut my pants completely off of me ,. Was there 20 minutes. Wfunniest part is that the citizens of Lompoc voted for the place. Bunch of misinformed, unable to comprehend bunch of people we are here in lovely Lompoc.Thank you Lompoc City board members for pushing that lame idea through leading us to believe it would generate money for Lompoc. We have lost more than we gained . What a price to pay. Id get better care going to a veterinarian office."

"I was rest by ambulance to Lompoc emergency room immediately put an IV in took me to get a CAT scan revealed it was two kidney stones. The entire time they were checking on me to see how much pain I was in. They kept give me different medications and when they saw it was two kidney stones The doctor said I'm going to give you a certain pain medication it'll make you feel this way but it's okay and finally the pain went down. I have everything good to say about Lompoc emergency room The doctor the nurses the X-ray people they were wonderful to me and I highly recommend them I give them a 10"

"ER service was decent but nurse was rude and insulting, assuming a fall was the result of drinking (it was not). No place for that. I would never allow this one (dark haired, female) nurse anywhere near me. Keep your attitude at home, honey. Secondly, and more ... the physicians group (Santa Ynez River ...) bill separately, which is not an uncommon practice. BUT, we were never informed of it, nor did they bill us! Worse... they didn't bill the insurance company either! Four years later, they sent this bill to collections -- a bill we never saw. And finally, the "physicians group" doesn't answer their phone. I think I'll make every effort to drive to Santa Barbara next time."
