Only if desperate would I go back
This hospital has started putting patients in chairs in hallways. This is the first time I've seen this. Maybe they are all doing that now, but there was no privacy. Everyone could hear each other and our personal private health information. Not even a curtain. This is the last ER I will return to. What is happening? Disappointing.

It took a week for my x-rays to get to my doctor
After many calls to Summit and calls to Radiology Alliance, it was determined the lab tech didn't do something and Radiology Alliance had not received my file. Why I was the one who had to find this information out frustrated me. I would have expected someone from Summit to show some initiative and do their job instead of me having to take considerable time to do it for them. This is the 2nd horrible experience with Tristar I've had. I'll be exclusively using Vandy moving forward.

Half naked pumping in the hallway in front of everyone for 10 hours
Absolutely horrendous care. I was never checked into a room (i understand they are busy this is not the issue) but i was forced to be top off, half naked pumping in the hallway in front of everyone for 10 hours. I had a newborn baby and was pumping every hour at this point. I was given absolutely nothing for any type of privacy. I came to the ER by myself in the middle of the night due to horrible stomach pain that had been going on for 24 hours. I thought it was gallstones as that is typical of women in my family after giving birth. I asked the doctor if it would be appropriate to do an ultrasound instead of CT scan for that reason. He agreed. However, the ultrasound came back negative and he discharged me with a stomach flu diagnosis even though i had never thrown up and was extremely constipated. When i was being discharged i told the nurse i am becoming worried it is appendicitis. She told me that the doctor was discharging me. I asked her word for word: “if this is appendicitis and i go home will i die?” She told me if it gets worse to come back in. Less than 24 hours later i was in emergency surgery at Vanderbilt for appendicitis. I never REFUSED a CT scan i simply asked if in his opinion an ultrasound would be okay and he said yes. He said my pain didn’t present as appendicitis so he agreed. I was then charged 4,000$ for a stomach flu diagnosis and being humiliated in the hallway. Absolutely disgusting. I can’t get in contact with anyone to talk about my bill or to talk through what happened. All the billing office will tell me is that i owe what i owe and it is what it is. I believe my billing is coded incorrectly and the billing staff just shut me down. Iv even spoken to a nurse advocate and the billing department told me “your nurse advocate or lawyer or whoever it is is wrong.” I would really really like to talk to somebody and get it figured out. Go literally anywhere else.

I wasted my time and money going there
Inattentive staff. Not one person looked at the part of my body that sent me to the ER. The most pleasant staff was the X-ray tech. The Dr was very informative but misleading. And I'm still in pain waiting for my Drs appointment.

It will always be a house of horrors
They can paint and remodel this place all they want, until they clean house with their staff, and leadership.

Nice people but their priorities is not lining up well
They are horrible when it comes to transitioning someone out the hospital and sending medications to the the right pharmacy. They was in a hurry for a provider to take a certain patient but dropped the ball when it came to the patient's meds.

The HIPAA law does not exist in this Hospital
We heard and saw every conversation between the nurse, doctor, and patient.

It took 25 hours to move me to a room
I couldn’t get water and they only checked on me every 6 to 8 hours. It’s not the nurses or doctors!! It the lack of nurses and doctors. They are spread way too thin. Later I found out that the reason I had to wait was because they didn’t have enough nurses to move me to a floor because of call outs. They had a room just not enough staff.

Zero stars
Very unprofessional. No compassion. When I couldn't pee I told them for 5 hours that I needed a catheter and they refused me. My bladder almost exploded. Thanks for almost letting me die. I would rather die then go here again.
