Providence Hospital Reviews

  • Aug 29, 2017

I was required to check in for a week long intensive IL 2 cancer procedure at 7:00am on a Monday. After putting a port in my carotid artery on Monday morning I was wheeled into my room and an alarm was activated on my bed so I wouldn't be able to get out of my bed by myself. I found out that one patient died while using the restroom and falling after his first injection, hence the alarm. My first injection was at 3:00pm and from then on every 6 hours. Every hour around the clock my vitals were checked. I stopped eating completely on Wednesday due to nausea. This went on until Thursday or Friday when I had difficulty breathing so the medication was stopped. I left the hospital on Saturday weighing 30lbs more than when I was admitted (212 lbs on Monday to 244lbs on Saturday) and I needed assistance walking.

I did the same procedure three weeks later but could only tolerate the medication until Wednesday.

The hospital on the second visit charged me double the first day because they said they released me and then readmitted me at midnight on that first Monday. They said I was an outpatient on Monday even though I was "chained" to my bed and receiving dangerous medication through a port in my neck all week. My insurance wouldn't pay the extra charge because they had already negotiated the cost for the week. Blue Cross/Blue Shield after a call from us complaining about the bill talked to the hospital and they have it on tape that the charge was not appropiate. It was a fraudulent charge. The hospital deducted some of the amount but not the interest charges and gave it over to Professional Credit Services to collect. My wife and I have yet to receive a bill detailing what we would be paying for.
