Los Angeles General Medical Center

All the doctors here don’t listen and it feels they want to rush you out. I’ve seen 5 different ones and they’re all saying different things about my injury. One of the doctors literally said “what do you want me to do.” And I’ll get a referral for more procedures or different doctors and it always take over 3 weeks to get an appointment a lot of them taking over a month. The only saving grace is the nurses are very kind and try their best to accommodate (not all of them of course but the few I’ve had)

I had a great experience at this hospital. NP Rice was sweet, kind, and very efficient. The nurses were very efficient as well although I can tell they had a lot on their plate, they did their job with a smile and patience. They made sure I was safe and well taken care of. I would definitely be coming back if I ever need to.

This place is under funded, poorly managed & under staffed. LAGMC is a level 1 trauma center and really great at saving your life in an emergency situation, and then really poor at everything else. We experienced an absolute crazy town, avoid at all costs if you can get to Cedars instead. My husband was brought to the trauma center after a bad cycling accident. The resuscitation team was quick & effective. After that, all downhill. They had him parked in the trauma center for his broken shoulder. A few hours later while waiting on the IV two finish, which the nurse told us is cheap and constantly gets kinked, we got kicked into the hall for someone in cardiac arrest. Which fair, it's a resuscitation ward. We spend 12 hours there, 3pm to 3am. He should have been transferred to inpatient faster at like 10pm to free up the space and staff and more importantly, to get him more specialized neurology & orthopedic care. He walked out in a broken sling, prescribed ibuprofen and tylenol, his wounds still covered in dirt and debris. Now we can't get the X-rays they took to get our follow up appointments. The parking lot is sketchy. They don't take seemingly any private insurance which explains their funding problems. The nurses seem to disappear, not show up to work, straining the ones that do. Admin & security staff are courteous. Everyone seems to want to do their job but are using outdated processes & technologies to better serve patients more efficiently. The records department relies on faxes and cds.

If you have the chance, dont come here. Moves so slowly, hard to speak to doctors simce theyre always busy so its hard to get answers. Has been a nightmare. Thank God for the kind nurses but after days of being in the hospital that only gets you so far. This place is too big and too many people with no insurance. Emergency patients go first too, that means life or death patients. It makes sense but if you have an emergency but your vitals are still okay be prepared to wait. And wait. Don't come here if you can.

PARKING ONLY Concerns. 1. Cleanliness, Odors, and Safety 🏨🅿️ The parking structure—especially the side across from the main area—is extremely dirty, including the old elevator. There are strong odors of urine and other foul smells, and in some areas there is even feces on the floor, which is unacceptable for a hospital environment. Every level needs to be pressure washed with soap and bleach, with special attention to the 3rd floor, which connects directly to the hospital bridge. Regular, thorough cleaning is essential for health and safety, particularly in high-traffic areas where germs and viruses can accumulate. A recommended schedule is to power-wash every two months. If the hospital cannot afford this, they should consider asking volunteers or private companies to donate their cleaning services. 2. Parking Misuse by Employees Employees are using patient and guest parking areas, causing the parking structure to be full on almost every level. This creates hardships for patients, visitors, and families who rely on accessible parking. Installing cameras on each floor, including inside the elevator, would help monitor and prevent misuse.. I will take pictures next time 📷
