Sovah Health - Martinsville

Stay away. Worst hospital ever. Seriously. Do yourself a favor and drive the hour out of town.

If I could stand all day long outside this hospital ER, to avoid anyone having to go through what I went through, I'd do it in a second!! Doctors don't explain procedures ordered, I stayed there for 3 days for what boiled down to low sugar and low bp and a sprained ankle. I was in incredible pain, and one of the doctors lowered my benzodiazepine doze, and I never got my depression meds and when asked if I could have something for the pain in my ankle, the only response was "Only if it's broken" They continued to treat me like a drug seeker, even though ALL my labs were clean. With 3 days spent there, I spoke to all 3 Drs in the ER for approximately 10 minutes combined. On the 3rd day, after I spoke to admissions, I received an X-ray, which somehow, someway came back negative. During this whole time No nurses showed any pity or empathy at all, and were very rude, quickly putting me in the opioid seeking category....Once the X-ray came back, not broken, I was quickly shoved out the door. Knowing something wasn't right about my foot, I was taken to Eden hospital where the X-ray showed an Avulsion Fracture. I now need surgery and thanks to this worthless hospital I've been made to wait longer so it's gotten worse. My best advice IS NEVER EVER USE THIS HOSPITALS ER!!!!
