Carroll County Memorial Hospital — Local services in Carrollton

The care and treatment were good for the most part. I did feel that some assumptions were made that a specialist should actually look into. Especially since pain and tenderness are related. My complaint is the emergency room team should think about the fact the patrons can actually hear them at their desk. I heard a lot of rude judgements and assumptions being made. In fact this is privacy violation in my opinion seeing some comments were related to medical situations. Yes a big PHI violation....And it really makes the wait while you or a loved one gets treatment very uncomfortable! ....fyi this individual I brought in ended up having Pancreatic Cancer. The pain & discomfort only got worse. I can't help but wonder if they took him seriously if things would have been different.

He was initially treated at a level one trauma center. His main complaint was neck pain and a headache. After only taking a few x-rays (none of his neck) and labs he was discharged. I took my father to see Dr. Reid who actually listened to my dads complaints. It turned out my dad had a fractured vertebrae in his neck, internal carotid artery damage and other injuries. Dr. Reid then stayed late to make sure my dad was transferred to a facility that could manage his multiple medical problems. We are very fortunate to have such great healthcare providers...
