Gwinnett Medical Center-Lawrenceville

My husband was up throwing up all night so we took him to the Emergency Department. The first nurse we had was very attentive and caring. He got cold so they brought him warm blankets.The nurse practitioner was patient and explained everything to us. The second nurse we had only checked on my husband once over 2 hours. His IV was done for almost an hour before she came in to remove it. When I asked her about his medications, she was rude and condescending. I have multiple family members in the medical field so I know what I am talking about and she made me feel stupid and belittled. My husband also had a high white blood count and the doctor ran no additional test to see if he was fighting an infection. He only recommended we bring him back if he got sick again. Well it's a day later and he has a fever. We will be going somewhere else for our follow up appointment. The parking lot does cost but you get a parking pass for visiting the Emergency Department.

Went to ER to get checked out before voluntarily going to a detox facility. My medications and a couple other personal belongings (all legal) were not returned to me upon being discharged from a behavioral unit. Was told to get off the phone with my friend while at the ER and tried to leave but was forcibly restrained. PIN for my phone was requested. I gave it to them but this seemed highly illegal. -1 Stars for lack of compassion and respect for privacy.

We came in at about 11 o'clock a.m. on a Monday morning because my wife felt like she had been in labor since about 1:30 that morning. We came into the women's pavilion and got say in triage for a while. A nurse cane in to check my wife and told us she was 1 cm dilated, and she wanted to possibly send us home for a few days, but wanted to monitor her for a couple hours to monitor progress. She gave us a couple tips to get dilation going a bit more. So we took an hour and walked around. Came back into the triage room ans found my wife was 2 cm. They admitted us at this pint and sent us back to a room. The nurses were very attentive, and very helpful, giving her pointer of how to get things moving. Finally at 4:41 My daughter was born. They immediately put her skin to skin with my wife before cleaning her up so she had the first contact. They moved her into a room where the nurses were extremely helpful. Taught us pretty much all the trucks in the book as to how to get my daughter to latch properly. They are extremely helpful, and i never once felt like we were asking for too much, or had too many questions for them. They even helped out when my daughter didn't want to go to sleep that night. All in all i would highly recommend the hospital for giving birth. When you give birth here, if given the option, ask for Kitty, Magribe (ma-gree-bay) for daytime and Liz was the best night time nurse I've ever had the pleasure of meeting

This place is terrible! Not to mention, it makes you feel like you are dirty as you walk in. I have not been to this hospital in years, and it has gone down hill! Also, the ER needs to have a better system put in place!
