Sunrise Hospital Vegas

The story of Patient-1 is about a woman who had a horrible, botched hip replacement surgery by Dr. Michael Bradford with Nevada Orthopedic & Spine Center. The surgeon, anesthesiologist and operating room team did NOT use a nerve block even though each of them had discussed it with the patient prior to the procedure. Can you imagine having joint replacement surgery without a nerve block? The pain would be unbearable. It was pure torture. The patient is still suffering with horrible pain, lack of mobility and lack of medical care. Dr. Bradford disappeared after surgery and refused to communicate with the patient or other medical providers.

Read the story of Patient-1 to learn more about the problems in the medical and health insurance systems in Las Vegas and to learn about the person who "pretended to be an anesthesiologist" during the surgery (overdosing the patient on Fentanyl, using too much Narcan to try to reverse the overdose, and causing the patient to die). The details about what happened during surgery are in the medical records at Sunrise Hospital.
How often does Sunrise Hospital and Dr. Michael Bradford use unqualified people in the operating room during surgeries? How many people have been harmed or killed?

The story of Patient-229 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Worst hospital experience of my life. Long waits, including a 24-hour wait in the Emergency Room hallway to get a room. Patient received very little care from the staff. Her family had to provide most of the care. No food or water for 3 days and then they decided they would do an MRI instead of an endoscopy. The MRI never happened. The whole thing was a nightmare.

The story about Patient-230 who went to Sunrise Hospital with severe abdominal pain. A CT scan was NOT done. They gave her only a muscle relaxer on the 1st visit, and gave her Valium on the 2nd visit. Patient later went to an OB/GYN and ended up having surgery to stop the internal bleeding, remove 100 mL of clotted blood along with extensive irrigation (1.7 liters) to wash out the abdomen. Patient DOES NOT recommend Sunrise Hospital for any type of emergency.

The story of Patient-231 who went to Sunrise Hospital. The patient was placed in a shared room with another patient who had MRSA. This violates protocol. Nurses were slow to answer calls for help, and the food was terrible.

The story about Patient-232 who went to Sunrise Hospital for surgery. Numerous mistakes were made throughout the process. Patient says operating room staff were lazy or sloppy or both and seemed more concerned about turnover than patient safety. The hospital's APP was not working so the patient's husband could not check on her, and nobody contacted him. Patient says "Would you want to pay for this lack of care?"

The story of Patient-233 who went to Sunrise Hospital with only a heart valve issue. He was moved to rehab in very bad condition. He should have stayed in ICU. Sunrise Hospital later agreed and moved him back to ICU at the hospital, but it was too late. The patient had already gone into renal failure, with respiratory, liver and neurological problems. The patient died at Sunrise Hospital on July 13, 2026, at age 46.

The story about Patient-234 who had surgery by Dr. Ronald Hillock with Nevada Orthopedic & Spine Center. Patient says "stay away from this clown." I had hip surgery by Dr. Hillock. I was in the hospital for 3 days, needed 3 months of physical therapy, and 3 months of pain meds. Still in pain 3 years later, and the office doesn't respond to phone calls.

The story of Patient-235 went to Sunrise Hospital by ambulance which is very far from his home. Did they have an agenda for bringing him to Sunrise Hospital? Awful place. Waiting room is filthy. Security guards threatened to take my phone if I took one more picture. Communication with the doctors at Sunrise Hospital is a tiny bit less convenient than having dead people renovate your kitchen through the use of a ouija board!!!

The story about Patient-236 who went to Dr. Bradley Baker at Nevada Orthopedic & Spine Center. Less than 5 minutes with the patient and was reaching for the door as the patient was trying to talk with him. The doctor had no time to discuss the injury or answer questions. Only prescribed an injection.

The story of Patient-237 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Patient says it is the absolute worst hospital she has ever been in. It will haunt her forever. She can't believe the County let's it operate. Shameful.

The story about Patient-238 who went to Dr. Kevin Sharif at Nevada Orthopedic & Spine Center. Patient was kept waiting for a long period of time and was given vague or weak responses when he asked for an update. Dr. Sharif spent only 10 minutes with the patient and immediately recommended surgery as the only option. Huge disappointment!! Patient will NOT be going back to Dr. Sharif.

The story of Patient-239 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Horrible experience. Dr. Zainab Gulraiz did NOT look at my previous test results, but she wanted to run an MRI (the most expensive test). Patient says "these people are criminals, we are people, not paychecks, we are patients, not profits!!" DO NOT GO TO SUNRISE HOSPITAL!!!

The story about Patient-240 involves a 13-year-old child who went to Sunrise Hospital for surgery. She suffered extensive brain injury during surgery. Sunrise Hospital gave no explanation. It was more than one year before Sunrise Hospital provided a complete set of records (more than 3,000 pages). Patient's family says, "Maybe you should stop killing people, then having your legal team sweep it under the rug. There are so many malpractice lawsuits here. Is it worth the risk?"

The story of Patient-241 who went to Sunrise Hospital on July 19, 2026, with shortness of breath. The hospital initially treated the patient, incorrectly, by giving her two pills of Xanax (a potent tranquilizer). Patient has a documented history, at Sunrise Hospital, of asthma and COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease). After waiting for several hours, the hospital finally gave the patient a breathing treatment.

The story about Patient-242 who went to Dr. Ronald Hillock at Nevada Orthopedic & Spine Center knee surgery. Dr. Hillock was rude and did not want to answer questions. The nurse said Dr. Hillock is hard to get along with. Difficulty with scheduling and getting responses from the office. Patient will not be recommending Dr. Hillock to anyone else ever.

The story of Patient-243 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Horrible experience. Terrible response times, no empathy, and a "whatever attitude." The nurse would NOT allow hospice to talk to the family and sent the hospice worker away without notifying the family. The patient went home and died 4 days later.

The story about Patient-244 who went to Dr. Holman Chan at Nevada Orthopedic & Spine Center for surgery due to a broken clavicle. Bad surgery. Severe nerve damage, and the patient's arm no longer works. Patient was forced to become left-handed. Patient DOES NOT recommend Dr. Holman Chan.

The story of Patient-245 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Worst hospital she has ever been in. Rude and judgmental. Would give them a negative 100 review. Patient says she will crawl to a different hospital next time, even if she was injured right in front of Sunrise Hospital. Thumbs down in every way!!!

The story about Patient-246 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Poor communication between staff and patients. There are reasons why this hospital is rated so low. Patient says you will die waiting in the Emergency Room at this hospital, and this is the first and last time this patient will come here.

The story of Patient-247 who went to Sunrise Hospital with signs of a stroke. However, the hospital neurologist said my symptoms were caused by a seizure (not a stroke). They gave me no food or medication for 11 hours. The patient learned two days later from her regular neurologist that the hospital's MRI showed a stroke had occurred. Patient lost vision in her left eye and had partial paralysis from her elbow to her fingers, knee and toes on her left side. Patient says "what happened to the duty of care?"

The story about Patient-248 who went to Sunrise Hospital for labor and delivery. Worst delivery experience ever!! Rooms were disgusting, and the nurses talk nasty about everything and everyone. Patient rates them 0 out of 10 and would NOT recommend them ever.

The story of Patient-249 who went to Dr. Edward Ashman at Nevada Orthopedic & Spine Center. Patient was in horrible pain due to bilateral chronic ACL sprains and a torn/frayed meniscus.

The story about Patient-250 who went to Sunrise Hospital for labor and delivery. Dr. Frank DeLee had been drinking and showed up barefooted and in his Bermuda shorts. He kept talking about alcohol. He was rude and offensive. He caused the baby to have Erb's Palsy (paralysis of the arm due to severe nerve damage). Patient sued Dr. DeLee, the nurses, and Sunrise Hospital.

Additional information regarding the story of Patient-250. On March 7, 2025, the Nevada Medical Board issued a disciplinary action against Dr. Frank DeLee and approved a Settlement Agreement. Dr. DeLee said he is going to retire from the practice of medicine and agreed to surrender his license.

The story about Patient-251 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Horrible, dreadful, miserable care. Communication is ridiculous and confusing. You will get different answers every time. Patient says just because they are covered by news a lot, does NOT mean it is a good hospital. Warning to patients entering this hospital.

The story of Patient-252 went to Dr. Ronald Hillock at Nevada Orthopedic & Spine Center. Patient would give him zero stars and says don't waste your time and money. He was disrespectful and rude and couldn't wait to leave the room. Made inappropriate comments about breastfeeding. Patient says "I'm surprised his behavior is accepted and he works with people. Very unprofessional!!"

The story about Patient-253 who went to Dr. Kevin Golshani at Nevada Orthopedic & Spine Center for a referral relating to carpal tunnel syndrome. He did not perform an exam and asked only two questions. He was in a hurry to leave the room. Only referred the patient for physical therapy.

The story of Patient-254 who went to Dr. Arthur Taylor at Nevada Orthopedic & Spine Center with a broken wrist. He refused to answer questions and told the patient to focus on choosing between having surgery or letting the break heal on its own. Patient says Dr. Taylor's behavior was unacceptable and does NOT recommend him.

The story about Patient-255 who went to Sunrise Hospital and died. Patient's sister says this is the worst possible hospital to die in. The patient's family was not given time to say goodbye. The social worker was awful. Process was rushed. They stole the other siblings' chance to say goodbye.

The story of Patient-256 who went to Dr. Kevin Golshani at Nevada Orthopedic & Spine Center. I had been waiting alone in the exam room for 20 minutes and answered a phone call. I hung up the call as soon as he walked into the room, but he was annoyed that I had been on a call and refused to examine me and told me to leave. Patient says he believes he was being discriminated against.

The story about Patient-257 who went to Dr. Ronald Hillock at Nevada Orthopedic & Spine Center. Worst doctor ever. Extremely bad experience. Did unnecessary surgery on this patient based on a diagnosis for a different patient. Put this family through hell for a mistake and then was a complete jerk about it.

The story of Patient-258 who went to Dr. Holman Chan at Nevada Orthopedic & Spine Center. Patient says Dr. Chan is a perilous practitioner, and his level of incompetence is truly alarming. Patient's foot worsened under Dr. Chan's care as he proceeded to undertake an ill-advised attempt at performing surgery within the confines of his office. His solution entailed manually breaking the patient's foot, and he delegated this task to an assistant.

The story about Patient-259 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Worst hospital experience ever. Patient was forced to wait in the Emergency Room for several hours. Lack of care and compassion by the staff is absolutely horrible. Patient says he cannot believe a health care organization would treat human beings like this. He said it felt like he was in a third world country.

The story of Patient-260 who went to Sunrise Hospital for labor and delivery. Horrendous experience. Patient was forced to be induced even though she had not dilated and was not having any contractions. Given an epidural and the needle was bent inside her back. Patient now has crippling pain. Food was inedible and tasted like it was cooked in a dishwasher. DO NOT visit this hospital. You will regret it.

The story about Patient-261 who went to Dr. Arthur Taylor at Nevada Orthopedic & Spine Center. Disappointing and unprofessional experience with the front-office staff. They tried to force the patient to pay $250 upfront, even though they were in-network. Patient called his insurance company, and they confirmed that NO upfront payment was owed and recommended that he leave the office and find a different orthopedic doctor. Patient canceled the appointment and left the office. He does NOT recommend Nevada Orthopedic.

The story of Patient-262 who went to Sunrise Hospital with a painful, swollen leg. The security guard said they could not accommodate her and told her to leave and go somewhere else. Why is the security guard deciding which patients receive care?

The story about Patient-263 who went to Dr. Reynold Rimoldi at Nevada Orthopedic & Spine Center. Patient says Dr. Rimoldi does NOT listen and does NOT care about your pain. He slides into the room like he's Kramer. Never spends more than 3 minutes with you, and it gets worse post-op. Did a hack job on my surgery, and Dr. Rimoldi would not fix what went wrong.

The story of Patient-264 who went to Sunrise Hospital for sinus surgery. One of the worst experiences of her life. Due to excessive blood loss during surgery, she was admitted. The doctor failed to put in an order for pain medication and would not respond to calls from the hospital. They told the patient to "suck it up." Patient was in extreme pain and continued to try to get help with no success. Eventually, she said she was going to call 911 and ask to be transferred to a better hospital, so the charge nurse finally showed up.

The story about Patient-265 had surgery on May 11, 2026, with Dr. Ronald Hillock, with Nevada Orthopedic & Spine Center. She had both knees replaced at the same time. The next appointment for this patient is scheduled in October (5 months after surgery). Patient is having problems, and the doctor nor his office will return her calls. Ridiculous and unprofessional. Note to readers: A comment was posted online in June by a different patient, saying that Dr. Ronald Hillock is leaving Nevada Orthopedic. They apparently have NOT told Patient-265.

The story of Patient-266 who went to Sunrise Hospital with leg pain from a previous fracture. Patient was kept waiting for hours. No feedback from the doctor. Nurses have the nerve to say there is no fracture even though it is previously documented. Patient tells others to avoid coming to Sunrise Hospital for emergencies.

The story about Patient-267 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Patient says this is hands-down the worst hospital she has ever had to deal with. Beyond unresponsive. They rarely answer phone calls and will give you incorrect or unhelpful information. Telephone operators act like high school kids. Very unpleasant, unprofessional experience dealing with Sunrise Hospital. Choose a better hospital.

The story of Patient-268 who went to Nevada Orthopedic & Spine Center. He had a bad experience which left him wondering about the common sense, competence, reading comprehension, and logic skills of the doctors and nurses at this practice. Heard the staff gossiping outside his room and making inappropriate comments as they incorrectly assumed he was a patient with the same name (who is actually 20 years older). They need to learn how to read a medical chart.

The story about Patient-269 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Horrible experience. Many hours left waiting for medical care in the lobby --- and was eventually examined in the lobby. Conflicting statements from the doctors and unable to get updates from the staff. Patient finally asked for an AMA form and left the hospital. Patient says "literally go anywhere else."

The story of Patient-270 who had a horrific, botched hip replacement surgery by Dr. Michael Bradford at Sunrise Hospital. Malpractice and outright negligence rising to the level of criminal conduct. A complete violation of the trust patients place in their doctors. When a doctor walks away from a patient with no explanation and refuses to communicate with them or their medical team, it isn't just bad practice --- it's dangerous and unacceptable.

The story about Patient-271 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Deeply disappointed with the care received. Kept the patient on a gurney in the Emergency Department for 24 hours. Nurses could NOT provide information about her plan of care. Would NOT give her a pillow and would NOT take her to the bathroom. I would rate this experience a ZERO.

The story of Patient-272 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Absolute worst experience of my life. They left him in the hallway for 17 hours. No food or water. HIPAA violations. Patient is a 30-year veteran who served in 3 wars and has been through field hospitals. Sunrise Hospital lied to the VA hospital when they said they had a bed available for me.

The story about Patient-273 who went to Sunrise Children's Hospital. They kept a child waiting with a foreign object in her throat. Nobody would come when the medical alarms went off, and they kept her waiting for a long time to see a doctor. Horrible experience.

The story of Patient-274 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Entire experience was excruciating and terrible. They kept me in the hallway for 2 days, including 24 hours without food. Doctors have no clue about what they are doing. No communication. Do NOT send your loved ones here. This place should be shut down!!

The story about Patient-275 who was transferred by ambulance from MountainView Hospital to Sunrise Hospital (Be aware that both hospitals are owned by HCA Healthcare, and so is Southern Hills Hospital.) Patient had a neck fracture and brain bleed and sprained both hands. Received good care in the ICU, but he received horrible care when he was moved to a different floor. Never saw a doctor and was discharged without a care plan. Home nursing care and physical therapy were not ordered. No opportunity to ask questions.

The story of Patient-276 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Patient was kept on a gurney for 19 hours. Patient says they are choosing money and greed over patient care. As one example of the poor care she received, they were attempting to give her a medication that she was allergic to, but she caught it before it was too late. Patient says "If you're looking for a hospital and you want to be able to walk out alive, avoid Sunrise Hospital and HCA Healthcare altogether."

The story about Patient-277 who went to Dr. Kevin Laroche at Nevada Orthopedic. Long wait times. They made the patient redo the paperwork that had already been completed online (a common complaint at Nevada Orthopedic). Doctor spoke to the patient like she was a 3-year-old child. Patient said it was a big waste of time and the government's money.

The story of Patient-278 who went to Dr. Holman Chan at Nevada Orthopedic. Ankle surgery resulted in a deformity and chronic pain from the bottom of her foot to her left hip. Patient says the doctor is arrogant and makes false statements. Patient cannot get help from other orthopedic surgeons because of the severity of the damage.

The story about Patient-279 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Nurses were rude, cussing/swearing and unprofessional. Patient was kept in a bed all night and never received a room --- but they charged her insurance for a room that never happened. No food or water. Rudest staff ever!!

The story of Patient-280 who went to Sunrise Hospital with constipation and dehydration. She was told she had stage IV cancer without doing a biopsy. She was scheduled for surgery without her permission. No IV or fluids for 4 days. Patient decided it was time to "GET OUT" of Sunrise Hospital, and she left the building.

The story about Patient-281 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Poor medical care. Doctors and nurses do NOT listen. Insisted on a treatment plan that had already failed twice. You can never ever go outside once you have checked in due to their security problems. #prisonhospital

The story of Patient-282 who went to Sunrise Hospital with a urinary tract infection. Patient was in severe pain. It took them 35 1/2 hours to take a urine sample. Then another 5 hours to get an antibiotic. Nurses were negligent and horrible. Be aware and be assertive.

The story about Patient-283 who went to Sunrise Hospital with injuries, severe pain and difficulty walking. They would not provide a wheelchair or assistance. Never saw a doctor. They did not clean or bandage her wounds. Unprofessional, disrespectful, and no compassion. Patient gives them zero stars. Requesting an investigation.

The story of Patient-284 who went to Sunrise Hospital with intense pain. Long wait times. The nurses' treatment was awful, with zero empathy. When a nurse removed my IV, she bent it, causing terrible pain. Another patient was bleeding with a head wound. When she fell to the ground, nobody helped until finally a receptionist came over. Patient DOES NOT recommend Sunrise Hospital.

The story about Patient-285 who went to Sunrise Hospital for issues relating to diabetes. Absolutely horrified. Hospital was filthy, dirty. Patient was injected with something unknown in her IV. Then she was given a pain medication which knocked her out, and they left her in the waiting room for 12 hours. Security started poking her, telling her to call for a ride or wait outside (when it was 112 degrees).

The story of Patient-286 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Absolutely terrible!! In fear for my life!!! Dosed and pushed into the middle of the waiting room. Completely incoherent and alone. Will NEVER return to Sunrise Hospital.

The story of Patient-288 who went to Dr. Kevin Golshani at Nevada Orthopedic & Spine Center. Doctor looked at X-rays and barely asked a question or two. Only said the patient needs a shot. No real conversation. Patient did not know how to score him because Dr. Golshani was almost indifferent.

The story about Patient-289 who went to Sunrise Hospital with appendicitis. Long, slow process. Had a CT scan in the parking lot. Delayed care resulted in burst appendix. Agonizing pain.

Sent the patient home without pain medication.

The story of Patient-290 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Patient was moved out of a private room and left in the hallway for many hours, without food or water.

Patient chose to sign an AMA form and leave after being lied to, dehydrated and weak.

The story about Patient-291 who went to Dr. Ronald Hillock at Nevada Orthopedic & Spine Center. Patient says do NOT waste your time with Dr. Hillock. He just wants to get you out of his face without any resolution and get more money from you. Dr. Hillock would not use the previous MRI and wanted the patient to spend more money for another MRI and also said the patient had to come in for another appointment just to get the MRI ordered. Patient also had difficulty getting Nevada Orthopedic to return phone calls.

The story of Patient-292 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Worst experience ever. If you needed a nurse, there was nobody around!! The care was poor!! Never going back.

The story about Patient-293 who went to Sunrise Hospital with congestive heart failure, excess fluid, swollen legs, and high BNP. (BNP was 702. Normal BNP is 100.) Sunrise Hospital only gave the patient an injection of Lasix. No other care. Patient went to a different hospital two days later and was admitted.

The story of Patient-294 who went to Sunrise Hospital. They made him wait in a chair for two days. No food or water. They gave the patient the wrong medication, so they are making him stay another day. Patient says he is going to the TV station and telling them everything.

The story about Patient-295 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Elderly woman was left unattended for several hours after surgery. Gave her a sandwich when she was supposed to be on a liquid diet. Her personal items disappeared for several hours. She was given morphine, then discharged and left alone on a bench outside the hospital.

The story of Patient-296 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Patient says Sunrise Hospital is still the worst hospital in Las Vegas!! Nurses are confrontational and judgmental and DO NOT care. Speak up and advocate for yourself.

The story about Patient-297 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Another horrible IV placement by nurses at Sunrise Hospital. The nurse does not know how to place an IV. Patient says don't put nurses like that in the Emergency Room. She will just harm the patients.

The story of Patient-298 who went to Dr. Bradley Baker at Nevada Orthopedic & Spine Center. Horrible care. The worst!! Patient was in excruciating pain and unable to lift his leg.

The story about Patient-299 who went to Dr. Ronald Hillock at Nevada Orthopedic & Spine Center. She was an elderly patient in pain. She would give him ZERO STARS!! Dr. Hillock was rude and condescending and kept cutting off the patient when she was trying to talk.

The story of Patient-300 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Mistakes were made during the CT scan, causing severe injuries to the patient --- contrast induced extravasation injury --- due to radioactive iodine leaking into the patient's tissue.

The Patient Advocate admitted the records were falsified and promised an investigation would be done, but it never happened.

The story about Patient-301 who went to Dr. Michael Bradford at Nevada Orthopedic & Spine Center. Worst hip doctor ever. A real jerk. He said the patient had an "old-fashioned hip replacement" that needed to be replaced. When Dr. Bradford heard the hip replacement had been performed by a renowned surgeon in California, he changed his tune and now said it is a good hip. Patient advises others to stay away from Dr. Michael Bradford.

The story of Patient-302 who went to Sunrise Hospital. The place was filthy. Staff had very poor attitudes and disgusting behavior. Patient was given only ibuprofen for an infection and inflammation around her heart. Intensive security procedures cause delays in receiving treatment.

The story about Patient-303 who went to Dr. Arthur Taylor at Nevada Orthopedic & Spine Center for a cyst on her wrist and carpal tunnel syndrome. Dr. Taylor did NOT examine the patient and ignored the test that showed carpal tunnel syndrome. Only gave her an injection. The patient left feeling dismissed and uncared for.

The story of Patient-304 who went to Sunrise Hospital with severe abdominal pain. Patient was discharged after only 30 minutes.

She does NOT recommend Sunrise Hospital to anyone seeking thoughtful or effective emergency care.

The story of Patient-305 who went to Dr. Holman Chan at Nevada Orthopedic & Spine Center. Absolutely terrible experience. Dr. Chan said the patient needed surgery on both shoulders. However, he would not help him and told him he needs to see a sports injury specialist --- but Dr. Chan would NOT give the patient a referral. Patient asked for assistive devices, but Dr. Chan refused to provide anything. Patient has never felt so dismissed by a doctor in his entire life.

The story about Patient-306 who went to Sunrise Hospital due to a stroke. Patient was diabetic, and they refused to give him insulin. Medical neglect!! Caused him to go into full-blown ketoacidosis. Patient was vomiting and begging for insulin for 11 hours and was continually refused. He was moved to the ICU the next day. Patient reported the incident and asked for an investigation.

The story of Patient-307 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Poor leadership. Not enough beds. People are lined up in the hallways. Communication is NOT equitable and care is subpar, not compassionate, and not efficient. Never let a wealthy hospital make you believe that negligent care is okay or the only option. Hold these hospitals and their workers accountable for humane and compassionate care!!

The story about Patient-308 who went to Dr. Zefu Robert Liu at Nevada Orthopedic & Spine Center. Very disappointed. Dr. Liu made the patient wait 9 weeks before doing any scans. Patient is now having a hard time walking and functioning and would never recommend Dr. Liu to anybody.

The story of Patient-309 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Negligence. Refused to dialyze the patient. Catheter was infected, but they waited 2 days before removing it.

The story about Patient-310 who went to Sunrise Hospital. The patient's mother had stayed with her adult daughter in the Emergency room all night. When the mother returned a few hours later, the hospital claimed they did not have a patient by that name. The mother continued to ask questions and asked for permission to look for her daughter. Security said NO!! The hospital eventually claimed the street name for the patient's address had been put in place of her actual last name in their system. Does that sound believable? The mother said this was a scary, exhausting, frustrating, disgusting, crazy, worst experience in my life.

Additional note for readers regarding the story of Patient-310: Read the other patient stories on this website to learn about other patients at Sunrise Hospital who:

have gone missing or

were discharged without receiving medical care or
experienced an unsafe discharge or
were wrongly discharged and died shortly after being forced to leave.

The story of Patient-311 who went to Dr. Michael Rossidis at Nevada Orthopedic & Spine Center. Patient received NO medical care but was charged for a surgical procedure.

Patient says they received better care at the Urgent Care Clinic.

The story of Patient-312 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Very quick visit and no diagnosis. Staff were in the hallway discussing other patients. Main bathroom in the hallway was flooding, and nobody took care of it. Patient had to walk to another bathroom several corridors away.

The story about Patient-313 who went to Dr. Michael Bradford at Nevada Orthopedic & Spine Center. Extremely disappointed with the knee replacement surgery by Dr. Bradford. Patient is still in pain one year later, with numbness in his shin and foot. Staff would NOT respond to phone calls, so the patient went to a better doctor.

The story of Patient-314 who went to Sunrise Hospital. She was told it was just angina, but it was actually a heart attack. Patient was vomiting all over herself and was only given baby wipes. Her stay and discharge as an inpatient were just as bad as the Emergency Room.

The story about Patient-315 who went to Sunrise Children's Hospital. The patient's mother says some of the nurses in the NICU are good but some are very rough and aggressive. DO NOT leave your babies alone. You need to stay with them at all times and watch over them. Have your family and friends take turns to make sure your babies are safe. And keep an eye on your personal belongings.

The story of Patient-316 who went to Dr. Bradley Baker at Nevada Orthopedic. DO NOT GO HERE!! Horrible experience. Dr. Baker was dismissive and provided very poor care. He ignored or overlooked the fact the anchor screw had come out of the MCL and was floating inside the patient's knee. The patient left and went to Dr. Bascharon at Orthopedic & Sports Medicine where she received excellent medical care and was treated with compassion. And Dr. Baker operates out of a surgery center which was 3 times the cost compared to Dr. Bascharon who did my operation in the hospital.

The story about Patient-317 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Horrible experience. Spent 3 days in a room. Saw a doctor for 25 seconds. Nothing getting done. Patient left and went to a better hospital and had surgery. Patient says they will NEVER go back to Sunrise Hospital.

The story of Patient-318 who went to Dr. Arthur Taylor at Nevada Orthopedic. Visit lasted only 4 minutes, and Dr. Taylor stood at the door, ready for a quick getaway. Dr. Taylor told the patient he had trigger finger, even though the pain was due to a hard lump in the middle of his palm. He actually asked the patient why he didn't come in sooner if the pain was so bad. This was the earliest appointment he could get from the scheduling person. (This story is another reminder of the scheduling problems at Nevada Orthopedic.)

The story about Patient-319 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Emergency Room is horrible!! The hospital knows this patient has epilepsy, but they put her in a chair (not on a gurney) knowing she could have a seizure and fall on the floor --- like the last time she was at Sunrise Hospital. The doctors and staff are unprofessional and incompetent. The patient told the ambulance employees NOT to bring her to Sunrise Hospital, but they ignored her request. It took 4 hours to go through the discharge process.

The story of Patient-320 who went to Sunrise Children's Hospital. Horrible experience. This was a toddler with a fever of 105 degrees. Made them wait in the waiting room. The exam room had blood and urine on the counter and the bed. Very inept (unskilled) handling during attempts at IV placement. They wanted to perform unnecessary procedures that would have caused a stroke. Patient's family says DO NOT take your child to Sunrise Children's Hospital, and they are shocked it has accreditation from any health organization.

The story about Patient-321 who went to Dr. Ronald Hillock at Nevada Orthopedic & Spine Center. Very poor care. The surgery was delayed for several hours. No conversation or phone call from Dr. Hillock after the surgery. No pain management. Patient says Nevada Orthopedic is just a human cattle house. She wishes she had gone to a different orthopedic office and advises patients to go somewhere else.

The story of Patient-322 who went to Dr. Michael Bradford at Nevada Orthopedic & Spine Center. Patient says Dr. Bradford only looked at one X-ray for 5 seconds and recommended knee replacement surgery. The doctor was only focused on the joint and did not care about any other issues that might be causing the pain. Patient says this office should be called "Total Knee Replacements Are Us." (Get the facts about joint replacements and avoid unnecessary surgery.)

The story about Patient-323 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Patient was placed in a crowded hallway, then moved to a small, noisy room with more than 20 patients. No beds. Only chairs. No sleep. Nobody cares about the patients. (Other patient stories have also described this small room, with 20 patients in chairs, no beds, and only one bathroom. They say it is known as the "refugee camp" at Sunrise Hospital.)

The story of Patient-324 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Staff are non-responsive. Beds are so close together they are practically touching. Horrible smell of urine. Lack of communication.

DO NOT use Sunrise Hospital!!"

They do NOT provide adult diapers and leave the patients lying in filth. Senior patients are put through horror. The nurse took the elderly patient's phone and would NOT give it back.

Patient says there are other reviews about Dr. Reynold Rimoldi being a horrible doctor and in a hurry.

The story about Patient-327 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Extremely disappointing experience.

They have specific concerns about the lack of communication from Dr. Francis R. Tan and are asking Sunrise Hospital for answers and transparency about their father's care.

The story of Patient-328 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Patient stayed 4 days and never saw a heart or lung doctor even though he is on portable oxygen. No diagnosis was given to the patient. He left in the same condition as when he arrived. It was 2 days before the patient was given his daily medications. Food is awful, with pancakes 4 times, and the trays were missing food items and no beverages were provided. Patient says Sunrise Hospital should pay more attention to their patients instead of their stockholders. He will look for a better hospital next time.

There were lots of issues including the roommate's wife who stayed the entire time, making noise, washing things in the sink, and eating her own food.

Patient's family says they would NOT take their dying dog to Sunrise Hospital.

The story of Patient-332 who went to Dr. Bradley Baker at Nevada Orthopedic. Zero stars. Worst doctor the patient has ever seen.

The story about Patient-333 who went to Dr. Kevin Laroche at Nevada Orthopedic. Nothing but trouble with this doctor. Three failed surgeries and a life-threatening infection.

The story of Patient-334 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Worst experience in my whole life. Waited 8 hours for a bed. Then they put me in a one-person room (single occupancy) with a roommate --- with visitors who stayed after visiting hours were over. They did physical therapy on my "roommate" for 2 hours right next to me while she was screaming the whole time. I will NEVER come back to Sunrise Hospital.

Have to remind the staff when medications are due or you will NOT get your meds.

The story of Patient-338 is a veteran who went to Sunrise Hospital. Terrible experience!! Discharge process sucked. They gave him none of his medications for 5 days. They did NOT make transportation arrangements with the VA. Patient is still upset about the discharge process, poor medical care and lack of medications.

The story about Patient-339 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Patient says one star is too generous for this disgusting dump. Doctors and nurses will let you die rather than help.

The story of Patient-344 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Received very poor care. Hospital was dirty and poorly staffed with careless, incompetent people. They would NOT allow the patient's husband to be with her (for no good reason). It took them 6 hours to do a CT scan. Patient had to wait for an hour to get help to go to the bathroom. Patient's family says the employees should NOT be in healthcare if they don't care about people and only care about a paycheck.

The story about Patient-345 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Worst hospital ever!! Forced to sit in uncomfortable chairs shaped like cardboard boxes, instead of using gurneys.

Coming to Sunrise Hospital was a huge mistake!!

The story of Patient-350 who went to Sunrise Hospital. The level of care and communication is beyond deplorable!! Patient coded, but the family was NOT notified.

They removed the patient from Sunrise Hospital, and he is recovering in a better facility.

The story about Patient-351 who went to Dr. Kevin Golshani at Nevada Orthopedic. Rude and disrespectful and forced the patient to pay numerous copays. Dr. Golshani did not seem to care what the patient had to say. Another guy came in to give the patient an injection and caused him severe pain.

The story of Patient-352 who went to Sunrise Hospital by ambulance because she was having seizures while watching a show at the Las Vegas Sphere. Sunrise Hospital would NOT allow her sister to be with her. A nurse threw cold water on the patient and told her to quit faking it!!

After you pay your bill, you will still receive notices saying you are late.

The story about Patient-355 who went to Sunrise Hospital. She went to the Emergency Room 8 times in one month, presenting with shortness of breath and chest and left arm pain and was told nothing was wrong with her.

The employees at Sunrise Hospital laughed and made fun of the patient. Very unprofessional. DO NOT come to Sunrise Hospital!!

The story about Patient-361 who went to Sunrise Hospital with a slipped disc. Horrible care. Never saw a doctor. Nurses would not provide information. They forced the patient to walk home, doubled over in pain.

The story of Patient-362 who went to Dr. Edward Ashman at Nevada Orthopedic. Warning!! Stay clear of Nevada Orthopedic!! Patient says Dr. Ashman was rude and only spent 3 minutes in the room. His nurse was very unpleasant and had a bad attitude. Patient went to a better orthopedic clinic and found a better surgeon.

The story about Patient-363 who went to Sunrise Hospital. Horrific place!! Worst hospital experience of my entire life. Male nurse named Eric was horrible and should NOT be there. No food, except two pudding cups. Patient requested to be discharged and says Sunrise Hospital needs to GO OUT OF BUSINESS.

The story about Patient-365 went to Sunrise Hospital. Take the patient anywhere but this mismanaged hospital. They would NOT even make a good veterinary hospital. They leave the patients with NO CARE. I am about to file a complaint for Medicare fraud. I would give this place NO STARS. Any 5-star reviews are probably written by employees. (Learn about FAKE REVIEWS.)
