South Strand Medical Center

i was in the behavioral health unit and out of the 3 times i’ve been inpatient, this hospital has been the most helpful and i’ve made lifelong friendships from my stay here. if i ever feel the need to be inpatient again i will go out of my way to come here. -kayla and haley, now roommates <3

It was convenient but not with a few obstacles. In reviewing my information I found that my emergency contact was unrecognizable and had to be changed. I was able to get my Mammogram but then had to find time to travel north (20 minutes) to get my bloodwork done at Grand Strand. I may have to consider changing to Tideland full service just down the road in Market Common.

The behavioral health unit holds everyone. Grand strand stated that she was not a danger. She sat in the ER for 2 days and everyone said “as soon as the psychiatrist comes you can go home.” They told the ER doctors that the BHU doctor would evaluate her instead so it could be done faster. Next thing you know, she’s being told that she has to stay for days because they give everyone meds and if you are good and take them you can get out sooner. So there is no patient care. There is no evaluation. They have people on meds that they don’t need. How can this information be given before an evaluation? It’s a for profit facility making their profit off people who should go home and get the support they need with their families and regular doctors- that’s not profitable. I have evidence that the

The entire staff were extremely friendly, courteous, knowledgeable, professional, efficient, and thorough. Through the entire time, everything was clearly explained.

The ER dept. at South Strand Medical Center was FANTASTIC, from the Medical Assistant to the Nurse to the Physician's Assistant to the Physician, I couldn't have asked for better care! They were professional, caring and friendly; they wanted to make sure I was feeling okay! Jon Le Feber
