Oncology/Interventional Radiology- My father was a patient last month for abnormal stomach bloating. The initial tests concluded he has suspected pancreatic cancer. The faculty reassured him that if he in fact has the disease it was the best location for the tumor and that it was treatable. After several attempts at a biopsy, the Oncologist confirmed he has stage 4 Inoperable pancreatic cancer. During the attempts at the biopsy, the hospital failed to prescribe an antibiotic and he became very ill. We were advised by the Oncologist that treatment would prolong his life about 6 months at best. We immediately made the decision to seek out care at Mayo and relocated to Phoenix temporarily for a second opinion. He was seen this week to repeat
I had to spend a week in Liberty Hospital recently and I have to say I was happy with everything I experienced there from my surgeon, Dr. Gibson, to the nurses, nurses aides, physical therapy, housekeeping and people that brought my meals. I would not hesitate to recommend this hospital to anyone. Everyone was very helpful & friendly and went out of their way to make me comfortable during my stay and make sure I received all the info needed to continue my treatments in the future.
I live out of state was visiting a friend in Kearney. I went down with chest pain and was taken by ambulance to Liberty hospital. What a mistake that was. I was admitted on Saturday after midnight they put me BOO. At 3pm the next day i had NOT seen a doctor. When I asked the nurse about it. I was told I wasn't put on the list. So here I am NPO ALL DAY and I am diabetic . I will NEVER go to that place again. Even if I'm dyeing. Thanks for nothing Liberty hospital.
I try to avoid the ER at all costs, but as someone with multiple and serious spinal injuries and damage, the pain does "run away" and is not controlled with standard home medication, etc.. I was seen by Dr. Timothy Elliott and he was very thorough and informative while also truly listening to me. I did bring my disability paperwork which helped him verify my conditions in one page to help save the hospital time and money as well as helping them properly understand how to treat me. I was given four different shots. One was a muscle relaxer, an anti inflammatory, and the pain from my sciatic nerve was relieved with a steroid epidural and I almost want to cry because of how well it worked for my lumbar region and related nerve pain almost 100%! I did receive a shot for pain as well and looking forward to a good nights sleep. Obviously the ER is not for chronic conditions, but if it gets out of control and your PCP or specialist isn't open or available and the pain is negatively affecting you severely then it can be the only available option to help get you by until you can see your regular provider. I was treated with respect and real compassion. From the Triage nurse who had a great sense of humor, the lady from registration, my RN Kyle Stillwell, and of course the doctor, they were all wonderful and truly cared about their patients and I hope this comment reaches the staff. Keep up the great work and thank you so much for making my misery much less. I'd give them all hugs instead of 5 stars if I could. You truly are appreciated and I know you jobs are stressful and difficult, but Liberty Hospital couldn't ask for better employees. Looking forward to seeing my new doctors and hopefully be able to find more permanent solutions to live pain free without depending on pain medication as often as I've had to. Anyone giving bad reviews are probably there for minor things or looking to get pain medication for the high. If that's the case then you shouldn't be at the ER. You should be going to rehab. Also understand the long waits are often due to patients in much worse shape than others. So, hitting the call button complaining that you NEED pain meds or food, etc., while someone a few rooms away may be losing their life needs immediate attention is not going to win you extra points with staff. Be respectful because they deserve to be treated with kindness. They are people too. They are not your waiter, nanny, or personal servant. Thank you for your services and the hard work you provide for your patients and community.
I would give 0 stars if I could. No one communicates with me, the patient, they take my labs, they do their scans and then do not share information. I'm not a passive patient, I want the opportunity to be involved in and understand my care. Furthermore, I have had some complex issues this year, and am not receiving wholesome care. They address one issue at a time and make me keep coming back and spending ridiculous amounts of money. Go somewhere else.
tests (CT Scan, blood work, port placement) and begin Chemo next week. Today we were advised that his liver has abscessed as a result of the procedure performed without any subsequent antibiotics from the internal biopsy and stent placement. Due to the consequences of Liberty Hospital he may not be well enough to start his 1st life saving treatment here at Mayo. He is now admitted into the Hospital to attempt to treat the negligent actions from his internal procedure at Liberty with NO antibiotics prescribed. When he was sent home after the procedure, 2 days post surgery he began showing signs of distress and infection. The home health care advised my mom to push the drain tube in about an inch. This is over a Holiday weekend and no one to respond to the concerns of fluid leaking out of the incision. Later to find out the fluid had built up internally as well when he was seen the following Tuesday. I can say with confidence that this hospital is a wonderful Cardiac Center and many other specialties. I would not recommend this facility for Cancer related conditions. Especially when we know our lives depend on not making elementary mistakes such as failing to provide an Rx after invasive procedures. This oversight is not a reflection of everyone at Liberty Hospital. However, one that should never occur in our health care.
