Mercy Health – Harrison Medical Center Emergency Department

Wonderful staff, nurse, & doctor who treated me and diagnosed my condition. Thank you for your kind service.

I’m sharing this for advocacy for better health care. No empathy or kindness from the beginning. The doctor told me that not sleeping for 48 hours isn’t an emergency. I told her I was hallucinating. I told her that I went to the urgent care the night before and it was 100 times better than this place but the med they gave didn’t work. That is not their fault. I had my husband drop me off the next day at the ER praying for relief. She said I’ve gone 48 hours without sleep plenty of times. You’ll eventually sleep. I still have not slept from the second instance of being up over 24 hours. I sat outside and cried waiting for my husband to pick me up. I’m reporting this to patient advocacy department as well because this is unacceptable. There are so many awful reviews for this place. I can’t help but wonder why nothing is being done to correct this problem. We want caring empathetic healthcare. This place displayed the opposite of that this morning. I can’t help but think that this place must have blood on their hands because I can’t be reading so many stories exactly like the one I encountered last night. Refusing to test patients with possible pneumonia on one review. SMH do better!

Went for a late sick visit because urgent care was closed. We were there almost 4 hours and waiting for discharge papers for over an hour. Doc tried acting like we weren’t sick. Didn’t proscribe any medication for our symptoms and tried saying my daughter might just be tired even though she’s had an on and off fever for 4 days and symptoms keep getting worse. She saw no reason to run a test for pneumonia even though she is showing symptoms and I told the doc she has been exposed to it twice. Horrible er and they don’t know how to treat children.

Came in with a possible seizures, the nurse or doctor didn’t run tests or anything. just came in and talked about “anxiety” no blood drawn, no tests ran, didn’t care to assess why or what the seizures were. left in my the room for hours and all was said “we will order you some meds” without even knowing what was wrong with me!!! gave me ativan, a benzo!! without any questions or test??? what if i were to be someone on some already? i could’ve overdosed and they wouldn’t of cared!.sent me home and i still have no clue what’s wrong with me. the doctors and nurses seemed like they didn’t want to be there or treat me.sent me home with a packet about anxiety which had nothing to do with my visit. 0 stars if i could!

I feel the need to post this. I had a pretty bad experience here too. I was at The Dearborn County Hospital with my hand over my head because the pain was so bad and then I arrived at Mercy Harrison Hospital around 3:00 A.M. experiencing the same sensations and they had asked me what works best for me and I gave them an honest answer. They didn't like my answer. On top of that they told me I was in a judgment free zone. Well, I felt judged. Plus one of the doctors looked at my "Trumpster" bracelet and I immediately felt a feeling of dread come over me. I thought I was going to be "pistol-whipped." Long story short I wouldn't waste my time here.
