Alert: New Case at Summerlin Hospital…they mistreat sickle cell patients!

Bravo (sarcastic) Summerlin Hospital in Las Vegas, NV and Platinum Hospitalist group for again mistreating a sickle cell patient. Let me ask you two: What the hell! Why don’t you know how to treat a sickle cell patient? According to the patient you have my patient suffering at your facility due to your incompetence of not knowing how to consult a hematologist that specializes in sickle cell anemia SS trait. My poor patient is there just hoping they will stop treating him like a drug addict. Do you not know why they hurt? Why does your pharmacist make suggestions to your doctor who just did an hour of researching meds for sickle cell patients? And then only to suggest meds that are contraindicated with the patient. WAKE UP AND GET EDUCATED SUMMERLIN HOSPITAL AND PLATNIUM HOSPITALIST GROUP!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you SICKLE CELL FOUNDATION for your continued help in this journey to educate these doctors and hospital staff that continue to treat without knowing how and getting less offended when we are here to help.
