"My parents were having car issues, so he went there by ambulance... He waited for hours to be seen, nothing was done, and then he was released on his own. So my elderly father who has dementia was sent on his way without assistance from their medical staff."

Better Business Bureau Complaint

"The care was okay (4 stitches,) but their billing department is atrocious. I made a payment through my HSA which was never recorded... No phone calls, bills, or follow-ups until I was contacted by a collections company."
