Southern Illinois Healthcare

“Pretty nice hospital and staff. Kind of stunning how many employees are sitting around on their phones at ER and nurses stations!”

“I went for a visit here through the VA about a month ago and told them if they want me to do any follow up appointments they have to clear it through the VA first because they pay for my healthcare. I’ve now received a letter a text and a phone call saying they set an appointment for me even though I’ve canceled through the text. When they called I didn’t even let the message end before calling them back and surprise surprise they’re closed and that was automated too. They’re predatory and not even good at their jobs. If you have any choice at all go somewhere else. They only care about the money.”

“Be aware and be prepared to wait 5 hours in the er just to find out that u have a UTI. The wait is horrible, I advise to come to this hospital for something serious, and the staff just sits around laughing and talking to one another rather than checking on patients. If I didn't push the call light, I wouldn't have seen a nurse or tech the whole wait, 1 star is pushing it”

“My husband & l went to this facility when he was diagnosed with 4th stage cancer. We were advised by Dr. Little, a radiologist, to do several sessions of radiation on spots around my husband's upper ribs. We asked what side effects there might be & we were told that there would be no negative effects. That was a lie. The main effect was a serious loss of appetite & massive weight loss from which my husband never recovered.. DFirst do no harm huh?Shame on Dr”
