St John's Medical Center

3/29 admitted for severe panic attack and abdominal pain.. already suing for malpractice for this event. Went home with a nice driver but still had tummy pain 4/12 back at st johns for tummy pain, i tried pepto bismal and it worked. 4/14 tried the pepto for about 24 hours and drove myself to er severe tummy pain level 10. Was told not to scream so loud. They gave me toridol and told me i couldnt drive home because i would be intoxicated.so i had to call an uber. No follow up. I felt hungry and asked if i could go to mcdonalds. After eating the mcdonalds it was only hours later that i was level 10 and on 4/15 they dragged me out of my apt screaming in pain. They sorta tried to help me but just locked me in a room in the er where i was screaming in pain and had to throw anything nearby at the door to get help, he just said i was being combative. I was in so much pain i couldnt swallow the liquid he gave me i was freezing cold and when he finally came back he said "oh you have blankets on the floor" and left but i was in so much pain i couldnt reach them. Then they put me in suicide container even though i had no suicidal thoughts. Still had raging pain, they moved me to another part of the hospital for another day or so. They told me.I might have an ulcer "or something ". Turns out it was heartburn from eating mcdonalds. They perscribed some medications costing from 95 dollars to 333 dollars, which i dont even need. I already paid for them at albertsons i tried to return them but they said i had to take that up with st johns. Suing AGAIN FOR MALPRACTICE AND MISDIAGNOSIS. Some staff are nice like Tallora but this "hospital" is a joke

Our beautiful little girl was born here. I can’t say enough great things about the team in the birthing center, other than we’re extremely grateful for their bedside manner, compassion, and professionalism. Hopefully more babies to come!

I had sinus surgery scheduled here on 5/23/2024. As I woke up that morning to drive to hospital my truck was demolished on the street overnight. Somebody texting. Get to hospital and get hooked up on the table and the PA is asking me questions about my diagnosis . I went to Dr Martin trott for packed chronic sinus conditions in my right side. I explained how that side of my face was always stuffed up since childhood . Long story short, they cancelled the surgery after Dr Trott explained that I never told him I was clogged all the time on that side of my face . I went over imaging with him and listened to him tell me that as a result of the imaging it was obvious I had no drainage. I found a note from him the other day with his diagnosis and it clearly is his mistake. He was defensive. The next day the hospital called me about how the surgery went. They called me later in the day to remind me of appearing for cancelled appointments they cancelled.. I’m out money for lodging, food and gas as I live in Dubois. I am having one more procedure done here and I’m done with St John’s. I can’t tell you how difficult it was to get a return phone call about scheduling and appointment .concerns over the winter. Do yourself a favor and document everything because this staff is incompetent. Billing ,scheduling etc.

A tremendous community hospital. The very best doctors and nurses, and unrivaled care. A hospital visit is rarely enjoyable, but St. John’s provides peace of mind that you are getting the best possible care.

I came to the Jackson area for a vacation and ended up with a 5 day hospital visit. My surgeon was great! Very personable, and knowledgeable. The staff, were kind and I never felt like I was a bother to them when I called. The kitchen even sent us home with some delicious cocoa banana zucchini bread. Great hospital experience.
