The place looked dirty. The staff was nice. They felt bad about the situation.. however, I understand that it is Christmas Eve. They turned entire waiting room away because the doctor did not show up like he was supposed to at 7 AM. He would not be arriving hopefully by 9 AM.. that is unacceptable. People get sick they go to your facility for care and you can't get a doctor on staff on time to handle them people that is very unprofessional
Came in for an ear ache. After a short wait at the window I was taken back and evaluated. Left with scripts waiting for me. One went to the wrong pharmacy but that is an easy mistake to make.
I'm writing today about the blood draw station at Ellis, it was probably the easiest, fastest, least traumatic blood draw of my life. Nurses and techs have found that it's easier to draw blood from the side of my wrist or top of my hand, which was a game changer for me thanks to a nurse I had long ago, but Kerry at Ellis upped the game, she tied hot packs to my hands to plump my veins and calm my nerves. I told her I had to recline, and requested a butterfly, and she told me to pinch part of my ear as an acupuncture technique to reduce stress. Kerry was in and out on the first try, I hardly noticed. Blood draws using a butterfly tend to be much slower, but thanks... read full review
