This place is terrible!!! I bought my brother here a little after 5pm due to a sickness and he is sitting in the lobby with an IV in his right arm and it's after 9pm! Omg it's not even packed in here. I should've drove to Columbia I'm pretty sure that they're charging him for every minute that he 'hasn't" been seen by a doctor smh

My first experience at Tuomey this morning for same day surgery. An absolutely impressive bunch of folk. I could not not believe how comforting and professional they were. I felt at ease from the time I signed in until the procedure was over. I only wish I could remember specific names but not necessary when all had the same pleasant attitude. I was one scared puppy facing surgery. Dr Crabbe also had the same pleasant and comforting ease about him. I just want to extend a heart felt thanks to them all. Patient care appears to be a goal and it was accompished with me. Much love to them all and keep up the great work.

My daughter went to the emergency room because of her blood pressure and pain on the left side of her body. They checked her blood pressure once and it was 230/130. They put her back in the waiting room where she waited over an hour before I requested someone check her blood pressure again. She was finally seen but they never checked her blood pressure. Instead they told her to go see her regular doctor. They gave her a shot for her pain and sent her on her way.

I took my fiance up here for abdominal pain that had her in tears and we have been here for three hours now. This place is ridiculous. Go to Columbia if you can.

Four of my friends had mammograms (2 traditional, 2 via 3 D imaging) done here recently. All four of them had to have the procedure repeated. The second visit is considered diagnostic (patient responsibility varies by insurance companies and plans), not preventative, (typically covered at 100%) and has resulted in out of pocket expenses. The mammography department should consider obtaining better/more images in a single visit. This would result in less radiation exposure, reduce repeat visits, minimize unnecessary billing, and eliminate worry/anxiety while awaiting results. It also makes us wonder if their instruments are accurate and reliable. In addition, results should be shared immediately with patients who have to have repeat mammograms and/or ultrasound. The staff was very friendly.

This hospital is a disgrace.
My 73 year old mother was admitted to Tuomey for anemia, dehydration and lesions on her liver. First , a majority of the nurses are very unprofessional. All I heard when I was there was whining about how hectic their day was and how they can’t wait to go home. One nurse complained to my mother about the other patients she had. I mean, who does that? I witnessed another patient fall down and you could hear all of the nurses at the nurses station talking about it and laughing. The bathroom in my mothers room smelled like urine and the paint on the wall was coming off. One morning my mother was served a tray of food for breakfast, she opened her carton of milk and proceeded to pour some in her coffee only to have it coming out in chunks. The damn milk was curdled. My mother told the nurse about it and she didn’t really seem to care. Oh, I forgot to mention the moldy bread on the sandwich that was served to my mother for lunch one day. How is this acceptable? The two “specialists” as they called themselves in the radiology department are a joke. They were cursing, laughing and whispering to each other and one was messing around on her cell phone. I could go on and on about this horrible place, like the reception lady in the ER who stuck my mother in a hallway because she said she was going to be in the way with her wheelchair. She then told my mother that they didn’t have a bed for her and she could go home and they would call her when one became available. First of all, my mother was transported there by ambulance from her doctors office. So isn’t it obvious that her doctor didn’t want her going home? This place is scary and one should never stay there alone if you have to be admitted. It hasn’t gotten any better since Palmetto Health took it over either. They need to hire quality people who take pride in their job, are respectful and have compassion for their patients. I will give credit to the transporters. Every single one of them were respectful, caring and helpful. Also, there is one tech who was very polite, showed concern and was just an overall pleasant person. Her name is Jennifer. This hospital needs more people like her.response / report this review -

I was a patient at Palmetto Health Tuomey from Sunday July 16 until Tuesday afternoon July 18. Words cannot express how much I appreciate everything that was done for me while I was there.I went in at ER because of a heart issue and efficiency and expert care is what I would and do call the care given me.I was admitted to third floor. Not sure if it is North or South but room 319.All of the nurses, techs, student nurses, and anyone else assigned to me were just absolutely fabulous, or remarkable, or just darn right precious. Words cannot express, I repeat as I said early. Food service and food itself was acceptable. I say it like that because I was on a diabetic diet and the food is not going to be all salty and sweet.It was healthy and nutritious. Thank you for opportunity to voice my gratitude. They were all doing there job, but it never hurts to hear praise for doing a good job. Submitted wholeheartedly, Patsy Scott.

I was a patient here in the ER. They brought me there via ambulance due to chest pain and suspicion of heart attack. They moved me to a storage closest because the rooms were full. A lady came to do the EKG and messed up and yelled F**K and left the room. I didn't see another person till my parents got there 1hr later where they finally found me screaming for help in the storage room.
So long story short you are better off to drive to Columbia or Florence. This place is terrible.

I came up here with my little niece came up here saying she had a bead in her left ear they then said there wasn't one so the doctor tapped on it and pushed it down and now she has to wait a day for the ear and throat doctor to get it out when they could have got it out before the doctor pushed it down! DONT BRING your child here! It's ridiculous

Horrible wait time in the ER. If your not dying you won't be seen right away. I waited with my wife for 6 hours for her to be seen. Either hire more doctors and staff to speed up the wait time because it's RIDICULOUS

Whoa, and I mean WHOA! So I go in with dehydration, and elevated enzymes in my body so all my muscles in my body were in severe pain. I was vomiting and the "other", and could barely move. They get me in the back rather fast (30 minutes) and put me in a room with other patients. Didn't bother me that bad. but when the Doctor came in we spoke for about 5 minutes. He diagnosed me with nasuea huh so he then gives me a bag of IV water. First the water was just hung up, not on a machine to control the flow. Secondly, when the bag ran out they let it there, never checked on me after 5 hours, mind you I am still in extreme pain. I ask a lady in the room I was in "Do you have a buzzer for the nurse?" She said yes and I asked her to buzz the nurse for me. So when the nurse came in I told her about my pain, she comes back with 4mg of morphine, shoots me up, comes back 10 minutes later and says OK time to go home. I was like wtf. I am doped up on morphine and your sending me home, the nurse, not the Doctor. I never saw him again by the way. To add to that, there was no covers, no pillows, freezing room, and never check on me once except when I buzzed the nurse 5 hours later then just sent me home. I'll be going to Lake City Hospital next time. Nurses name I believe was Dante (female young 20's white).
