Patient-358
No Medical Care and None of His Prescription Medications for 8 days at Sunrise Hospital
Patient-358 went to Sunrise Hospital. Patient was transported from Needles, California, to Sunrise Hospital for surgery to repair her dialysis fistula. She had to wait 7 days for surgery. Nobody knew what the other person was doing, and they would NOT give them a straight answer. Patient's family says STAY CLEAR of Sunrise Hospital. Go elsewhere!!
Patient-358 was transported from Needles, California, to Sunrise Hospital for surgery to have her fistula repaired (a fistula is the port used for dialysis).
Patient's family says:
My sister was taken to Sunrise Hospital from Needles, California, because they said they could do the surgery to repair her fistula. (She's on dialysis.)
They said Needles, California, does NOT have a hospital that could accommodate her.
7 days later they are FINALLY doing surgery!!!
She was scheduled for surgery a couple times, but they cancelled without explanation.
Nobody knew what the other person was doing, and no one would give us a straight answer.
I would say STAY CLEAR of Sunrise Hospital by all means.
If you have the choice to go elsewhere, GO!!!
