I had a good Doctor and the Nurse was very helpful and nice. But if you need any kind of help at the Counter dont go to the Hispanic Women if you're White they just ignore you, they only acknowledge Hispanics you have to go to any other person to be helped. That was on the second floor in the Surgery department.

Fabulous experience in the ED for my 17 year old son in January 2022. Dr. Seberger was kind, professional, and thorough. Our RN was also compassionate and responsive. I am very thankful that we have NRH when unable to manage illness at home! Thank you!

This glorified band-aid station is not allowing mothers to mothers to have scheduled births due to staffing but they are still open to emergency births....? The responsible thing to do would be to close maternity until staffing is up to par.

Go out of town. It's your safest bet. My husband was experiencing numbness in his right arm and dizziness. Took him to the ER; all tests were "normal". Second visit a day later; was told he was dizzy because his blood pressure was too high. I asked for him to be transported and was told "he doesn't meet criteria'". Took him to Stormont Vail in Topeka myself and almost immediately, he was being treated for a suspected stroke. He had in fact had a stroke. I'm not exaggerating when I say go out of town.

I sat in the waiting room for 40 minutes barely able to breathe. I was then seen for all of 30 minutes ignored every time I suggested some thing, given a breathing treatment prescribed steroids and was told to leave. They didnt check any thing other than my vitals and claimed that an O2 stats was the be-all and all of me being able to breathe. You are better off going literally anywhere else. This ER is useless

I have had nothing but great care at Newman Regional Health. Last September, I had Covid and went to the ER to receive an IV at my doctors request. They treated me with such compassion. Everyone from the check-in to the nurses, x-ray technician and Dr. Watters were just fantastic! They calmed my nerves about my condition and reassured me that I was healing well and should recover just fine. My father-in-law had his knee replaced recently and the care and attention that he has received has been nothing but wonderful! I have gone to most of his appointments with him and they treat him as an individual

The ER doctor Seaburger has no respect for his patients. He completely mocked my boyfriend at the nurses station and the nurses and him were laughing. I would much rather drive 45 minute's to Stormont Vail then to be treated with no respect. And I know NRH is going to reply back saying to contact them, I already have. And they can expect a lot more reports from me.
