Another terrible experience at the Wood County Hospital. I was having extreme pain in my abdomen area during sex and incontinence issues. They we're much more concerned about my lack of insurance. Did a pelvic exam and a urine sample but apparently they didn't bother to look at either of them because I left with no real diagnosis.
After following up with a doctor who actually knew what she was doing, she was able to clearly see i had a full blown UTI. I also had a major bowel obstruction causing me pain as well. SHE gave me actual antibiotics since your hospital didnt actually bother treating me. My recommendation? Unless you're dying, drive to Toledo.response / report this review -

Jackie U. in billing is unprofessional, arrogant, moody, inpatient, classless and mocks those with Brian Tumors and laughs at those with single sided deafness. The Blade will be contacted as will my Attorney. Can't belive she is in the position that she is in. She should step down now what a shameful display and cowardly. SHE MAKES FUN OF THOSE WITH DISABILITIES!

Stop having "unruly" patients arrested, ESPECIALLY after they have been medically cleared. If they are medically cleared to leave then just kick them out. No need to call the police and ding up someone's record potentially and potentially for the rest of their lives. And no, they did not "do it to themselves." There are probably many occasions when you could just kick the person out rather than running to the police. WCH needs to adjust it's policy, find some sort of private security funding, or learn to utilize restraints and medication to calm a person down. If anything, it is also straining the resources of the police many times when the hospital calls police, perhaps.

I was taken to Wood County Hospital alone by ambulance after I hit my head and lost a moderate amount of blood in an accident. They slapped a bit of glue on my forehead, left me to sleep by myself for about an hour, and sent me off despite the following:
a) They were fully aware I had no way of contacting someone who could pick me up,
b) The bus they told me to take home had stopped running a half hour ago, and
c) I'd been diagnosed with a concussion: One bad enough that I literally couldn't read and didn't know my own phone number. I cried about my broken glasses and the nurse just looked annoyed.
So, I attempted to walk home and slowly wandered a mile and a half in the wrong direction in an unfamiliar neighborhood before I was competent enough to pick a random contact from my phone. A long-distance friend picked up and lead me back to my dorm using Google Maps. When I got back, I was covered in so much blood that my roommate thought I'd dyed my (thick, shoulder-length) hair. She cleaned me up, got me water, and everything else the hospital staff was probably supposed to do.
So, long story short, get somebody to drive you to Toledo. I probably would have been safer had I been left to bleed on the pavement alone.response / report this review -

My daughter was overcharged for an ED visit. Was charge over a $1000 for a simple thing. Way too expensive. Taking advantage of the students.

Billing is a nightmare. I've experienced every ER in the NWO area, Wood County Hospital is by far the most expensive. Not to mention, I was charged for services never rendered. Almost a year later, I'm still dealing with billing.

I've been misdiagnosed and mistreated on three separate occasions for major medical issues. I advise you to drive the extra distance to another facility.

Worst hospital I've ever been to. Their lab violates Hippa privacy act and the idiots, didn't even draw all the blood lab work my doctor ordered and had to go back 2 weeks later to get it done. And don't tell anyone in the ER of allergies, because they interogate you about those allergies and the reactions, as if you are lieing about your allergies. Sh!tty hospital. As for surgery, DON'T GO! My son had to go there for 3 surgeries in 1 month's time to have 1 kidney stone removed. P!ss poor at it's finest!

Upon entering the ER with extreme upper abdominal pain and no insurance they treated me with minimal care. No insurance, little testing. discharged only to have to return the next day in tears begging for help! They referred me to DR. Park to follow up within 24 hours. 7 months later, DR. PARK STILL DOES/HAS NOT REVIEWED the ER tests NOR ORDERED further tests. STILL IN PAIN and now having mild chest pain I drove to Columbus to get help! Be cautious of this hospital! I can't say more!

This hospital needs to find a better way to restrain people who are under the influence or being disorderly. I understand the tax payers do not want to be responsible for the stupidity of others, but this hospital continues to call the BG police department over and over and over again. Just this past Friday, they called the police multiple times on disorderly drunk subjects, even though they had given warnings and soft restraints. This is an ongoing problem with this hospital, and has been for years. But calling the police over and over and continously having people arrested is not the answer. The hospital is in a college town and is just that, a hospital. They need to learn and seek better, more effective ways to restrain people until they sober up. They are a HOSPITAL, and drug/alcohol problems in a HOSPITAL should be treated as such, medical, detox issues. Either they need a detox unit, or HARD restraints, both, continously having these people thrown in jail and burdening the local city police is not the answer and is not a very customer-friendly way to treat even intox. patients. You view yourselves as a business or a hospital? It is also the responsibility of the hospital to find the funds to purchase said restraint and detoxification means, or at least transfer patients to a rehab inpateint rather than a jail. It is the 21st century, and being a small town hospital having the convinience of the local police nearby is no longer a valid excuse. LEARN how to restrain your patients until they sober up. Don't sit here and whine and complain to the police over and over and mark up people's criminal records by having them arrested because you still have not figured out or perhaps, worse, don't care to figure out better and more humane ways to treat your custo---patients. It is a college town on top of that, so this hospital should be most familiar by now with intoxicated subjects. There is a better way to restrain and sober-up your patients than simply doing the most convienient thing and having them arrested because you as a HOSPITAL just can't handle them. Can't afford it financially? Figure it out. WCH is a great hospital with much potential for future expansion, and their cancer center is probably wonderful. The times I have been there, with the exception of once in 2011, the staff has been first-rate in service, and extremely kind and courteous to me, understanding my conditions, concerns, even cracking medical stories of my medical history. I know they also do not appreciate the stupidity of drunk and disorderly clientele and patients. I really have a great respect for all the staff, doctors, receptionists, nurseseveryone, and they do not deserve at all what they go through with unruly, uncooperative subjects, especially when they are intoxicated their own poor judgement. I also look forward to seeing how the hospital continue to expand in the future, and it's wonderful support of the community and the university. The people and the care are timely and first-rate, and I greatly appreciate the many times they have taken care of me and brought me back to healh. But this is an issue that needs to be resolved. Such draconian methods and means such as I have highlighted should no longer be applied in the 21st century of care, including, in some cases, banning patients, of course, only in some cases. There are better, more modern means by which to handle such patients, instead of putting them in the criminal justice system, when they could be sobered up and sent on their way probably within 24 hrs. or not very long if beyond that, if not less than that amount of time. More bed space and funding for it would be another solution, perhaps.Thank you, and, like I said, I have enormous respect for the hospital and staff, and gratitude/thanks for the quality of care and service I have recieved in the past from the hospital. But these are issues that need to be resolved. There are better ways to help even unruly, intoxicated patients than calling the police and having them arrested and a criminal charge applied. Thank you.
