The Regional Medical Center in Memphis AKA THE MED has 3 parts, 2 are top notch. 1) Elvis Presley Trauma Center best in the tri state, it is used by the tri state area 2) NIC U unit best in the tri state also. To bad it’s hard to get Miss. and Ark to pay their welfare share bills. Leaves the hospital in the red and the Memphis tax Serfs to pick up the cost.
The rest of the hospital and ER suck with illegals, welfare queens, and staff, MERS, Norwalk, you name it infections. Not fit for a human being. Rude employees to boot.
Le Bonheur Children’s Hospital is the best in the area, then we have St Jude’s Cancer hospital for children.
Niece a couple of years ago took her small daughter to the local hospital, nurse said it was just an ear ache, no treatment, Pigeon Forge area. Grandma, my sis knew better, she made her daughter take the baby to another hospital, turns out she had spinal meningitis and spent nearly a month in the hospital. She nearly died, fever of 105 which is very dangerous in a small child. Took days to get it down, they did not know if she would be ‘normal’ after wards, but thank GOD she came through it OK.
You do what you have to for your children when they are sick if you love them.
Exactly. No one. Her child, her decision where to seek further medical treatment. I don't necessarily agree with her choice, but the child is her son so she gets to make that choice.
