  Not sure why I keep trying to go here. I took my granddaughter to the ER because she is having mini seizures and her neurologist out of Grand Forks said to have her checked and monitored at the ER. We waited for 2 hours. She had another seizure as we sat there so I asked if they had any idea how much longer. I was told she wasn't a primary emergency and everyone was seen according to their severity. When her seizure was done we left. I guess I have to take her to Grand Forks since Sanford doesn't consider seizure a consern.

  The service is absolutely terrible. I went in to be seen because I am nearly 34 weeks pregnant and arrived feeling extremely ill. I was attended to—sort of—but despite telling them repeatedly, "I feel terrible; I'm really unwell," the doctor's response was: "If we give you medication, we'll have to keep you here longer. You can just take paracetamol at home and stay hydrated." I left there feeling absolutely awful, and they didn't care in the slightest. That isn't fair, since their job is precisely to help people.

  Showed up at 5pm and was having surgery at 7:45pm. Thank you to all the great doctors and nurses for their diligent work. They beat all my fears of the ER wait times and took me ASAP. If you are having a health emergency I highly recommend.

  I recently visited the emergency room due to severe vomiting and while I am grateful for the healthcare providers, my experience was extremely disappointing and left me with little confidence in returning. I was asked to provide a urine sample, but given how lightheaded I was from vomiting, walking to the bathroom was a struggle. On my way back, I lost consciousness and collapsed on the floor. I now have a significant bump on the back of my head from the fall. What disturbed me most was that, while I was literally unconscious for a moment, one of the nurses shouted at me to “GET UP.” The lack of compassion and understanding in that moment was appalling. I was in a vulnerable state, and to be met with such an insensitive and unprofessional response was unacceptable. I will not be returning to this hospital, and I sincerely hope they reconsider how they treat patients, especially those in distress.

  Emergency room? More like a dmv with how long the wait is. Ridiculous. Three hour wait minimum. And to the human resources that will respond to this. Please don't. Responding to a comment doesn't fix the short staff shifts. Also the people on shift at the front desk not doing there job. So instead of responding to comments do some more training with your staff.
