Atchison Hospital

If you go to the ER for anything other than a broken arm, they will tell you it’s anxiety. My daughter clearly had hives. When I asked the cause (contact or ingestion for instance) so it doesn’t happen again they said ‘could be anxiety.’ Seriously, not my kid. Then I overheard them with the patient next door lecturing her and telling her they thought she had anxiety. Very dismissive. 9/1/19 visit. I should not have to justify why being in recovery means I choose NOT to take narcotics. Spent10 minutes with nurse arguing with me about it. Her in favor for it!! Additionally they were rude and dismissive about my health history and accusatory as if I was to blame for my health issues. I’ve never been so insulted.

My mom was sent home with stroke symptoms and a few days later she had a major stroke in the middle of the night. Ambulance was directed to go to Mosaic Hospital in St.Joe. They were appalled to hear what happened. She lost the use of her left leg and arm. There is very little staff there at night.

$4000 for salien wash on two half inch dog bites on my hand.Sterie strips without info on them. No notice to my work that I can’t work. KU only charged $1,500 for meds, special burn healing cause, and two visits for hands on wound care. And KU forgave the charge. Atchison hospital agreed to leave my debt at $50 a month till my court case was over, but chose to take me to court after theee months any way, and even after the city ruled the assailant (who’s dog bit me) the Atchison hospital continues to pursue me even though the assailant is paying $200/month to them. Genuine thieves.

Very unprofessional/lack of communication and no answers, just more tests and xrays while I keep swiping my card, I do not recommend this facility

Anyway I had my own emergency just after handling my daughter's emergency at the other side of Kansas I walked in to find the place pretty much inhospitable. I'm not talking about the cleanliness either,I found the doctor the wall young and good for him had no bedside manner he was meanI he made you feel belittled dirty and like you're just out looking for a fix what because your from California! I truly needed his help last night I explained it Benadryl wasn't going to do it I take that every night to try to go to sleep sorry. I'd rather see me go out into the parking lot and get hit by a car.California doesn't even put that much a stigma on it you could look at people if you're a doctor you have a good sense of what's true and what isn't he had no sense I hope all the rest of the staff isn't like that and I'm sorry but he does reflect upon you. P.S. I hope he doesn't try to charge me for that rotating door exit.
