I asked for referral somewhere else
Went to the emergency room in March 2025 for severe abdominal pain and tenderness, nausea, and vomiting that was coming and going over 3 or 4 months. I finally went to the ER that day because the pain was really intense, and the recurring issues were making it very difficult to keep my job. I needed it to stop. They ran some tests and couldn't find anything, so they chalked it up to gastritis and referred me to GI specialist to see if there was something more going on. They also told me to get a colonoscopy as soon as possible because of my family history of colon cancer. I was referred to Baptist Health gastroenterology, which did not have anything available until mid July. Ok, 4 more months to deal with on and off pain that could be very intense and nausea that made eating anything extremely uncomfortable. July 1st I receive a notice that my appointment has been cancelled and I will need to reschedule. First available is in October.

I would not go there if I was bleeding to death. Terrible place
Terrible hospital. Nursing staff do not do rounds and check on patients. Let my dad fall by not following his careplan. I would visit him 4-5 hours and not see a single staff member within that time frame. He takes a lot of meds at home. If staff wasn't coming in room I knew he wasn't getting them. Ridiculous. Family had to be there for him to be cared for. Didn't answer nurse call button but several staff members sitting and on their phones. Kidney labs were abnormal for atleast 2 weeks. Dr kept saying we will keep an eye on labs and redo tomorrow. Said that for at least two weeks. Everything was "tomorrow". Since nothing was done the first time he's now on dialysis. A doctor was going to medically clear him then next day had 2 surgeries. Sent him to rehab and same day readmitted because they discharged him his dialysis port bleeding and a open wound in his back. Horrible hospital.

Second terrible experience with Baptist Health Lexington
This is my second experience with Baptist Health in Lexington Kentucky. Both times have been absolutely terrible. I’m talking specifically about bedside professionalism by nurses/doctors/clericals. There is zero professionalism or respect given to patients families. My aunts surgeon just verbally blamed her for making his job harder (his exact words) because I stated she needed Percocet instead of Norco, because Norco has proven to not work for her in the past. My mother was in the room and heard him say that now his job will be made harder because “she didn’t speak up for herself and tell him sooner.” All she was focused on this morning was just getting to surgery. She’s an anxious person. Hence why I am here to make sure everything gets asked and answered. Not only did he respond this way, he interrupted me several times and refused to let me speak. I deal with this on a daily basis as I am a cardiac/neuro/trauma ICU nurse, and I can tell you 100% it is not ok for doctors to walk all over patients families when they are advocating for their loved ones. It was one simple request. It could’ve been easily resolved with a response such as “thank you for letting me know. I’ll be sure to change that order for her.” Instead, it was made into a big ordeal about how his job is now harder and putting blame on the patient. Unacceptable.

Not helpful at all
My doctor and her staff are excellent. Unfortunately, Central Baptist healthcare facility made a terrible decision to centralize ALL incoming calls to the hub answering service. These people in the hub don’t know what they are doing and are only there to direct phone calls and look in your chart even though they have nothing to do with your care. What an invasion of privacy. Two different hub staff keep directing me to radiology to schedule a colonoscopy. How sad the premier healthcare in Lexington no longer values quality care.

I had the absolute worst experience giving birth there!
This place does not even deserve one star! They illegally held my baby for 8 days and when lawyers got involved they released my baby straight to the corrupted system of Fayette County. The social worker at the hospital is crooked and I do hope the worst for her after what I went through with my child there because of her. I hope she suffers the mental and physical pain I had to endure.Needless to say, my baby was given directly back to me on our very first court day.

Just nothing I expected from people who were suppose to help
It took me some time to write this review because I tried to get over my experience, but just can’t. I had a very hard pregnancy and gave birth at Baptist. My stay leading up to birth was really good antepartum was great, but after was horrible and a nightmare. My twins were NICU babies and I had never been treated so bad in my entire life. I was a first time mom who was scared to death and they did not help at all. My husband and I were talked down to, had people get an attitude when we wanted to touch our babies, did not guide me through any part of mother hood (didn’t encourage breast feeding, didn’t encourage kangaroo care, etc) and to the point that made me come back and write this, on the day of discharge I asked lactation about tongue and lip ties and she huffed jabbed her fingers in both the boys mouth and said feels like a premie mouth to me. Now months later it looks like one of my sons has a severe tongue tie that will need taken care of. Just nothing I expected from people who were suppose to help me and my sons get better.

Billing and Administration Department is trash.
Billing and Administration needs an employee overhaul. I will keep refreshing and adding to this review so it stays at the top until you resolve my problem with your billing.
