Allen Parish Hospital

I wish zero stars was an option. It was a nightmare experience in the emergency room. The attending physician's first words to this 64 year old retired teacher were, "we don't give out drugs here". I was in excruciating stomach pain from a diverticulitis attack and have never been to any hospital looking for drugs. I just wanted to get to the closest emergency room so that I might live to see another day. He stabbed me five times in my left hand trying to find a vein, and would've continued the torture me if another dr. hadn't arrived to insert one in my right arm inside the elbow. He was successful on the first attempt. The remainder of the visit was not any better, and because the lousy ER physician coded it as a non-emergency ,my insurance refuses to pay. I could elaborate much further, but I won't. Just keep driving. Head in any direction except this one. This was definitely a life-changing experience.

My experience is a glowing one. I don't understand why all the bad reviews. I drove 4 hours to come here for detox and wow I'm taken back by the southern hospitality. Everyone has a smile and are super sweet always asking how you doing and greeting you. They medicate every symptom of withdrawal and make sure you are comfortable above all else. They are super accommodating and constantly ask if you are suffering in any way and how they can make your stay a more pleasant one. They keep close tabs on you and have an eye for detail even ask what foods you don't like.. Two nurses stand out the most a female beautiful nurse named Terri ;) has been absolutely phenomenal in every way even sharing her own personal experience, strength, and hope with me. She embodies exactly what a nurse should and even surpasses that. She even gave me her personal favorite options for long term treatment. All that and shes very easy on the eyes lol which makes my stay here even that much better. She is an absolute asset to this hospital. Second is Brenda, another asset to this hospital she helps me with any and all requests to make my stay that more pleasant. And she is so sweet.! She is an absolute embodiment of southern hospitality. I'm so glad I drove 4 hours to Come here. I'd definitely recommend to anyone! Nameste

If I could I would rate this hospital a 0! Lets just say if you want to live do not come to this hospital.
