Nic Sechler — Fun fact, the first Pfizer vaccine can give you chest pains. I got the vaccine at a LVHN site in Whitehall. I've been having the pain ever since getting the shot. Chest pains are also a sign of blood clotting so its not a very convenient side effect.

I went to the emergency room at LVHN Allentown... Read more for this. The wait was so long that after 5 hours they had only done and EKG, minimal blood work, and a few other things - maybe twenty minutes total of actual work.

When asking for answers about the time frame and results of the tests, the front desk offered nothing but a bad attitude about how I wasn't going to get answers.

People were walking out left and right while being untreated. A particular fellow came in for insulin and received none and was leaving as he was going into DKA from his high blood sugar. Another elderly couple who was there for four hours asked a passing nurse about the wait time and got a snippy response of "well, the last person I took back was here for six hours so deal with it."

When confronted with their inadequacies, the front desk staff did a horrible job maintaining customer service and defended every action they took instead of identifying with patients and trying to solve their problems.

All the bright lights and new equipment mean nothing if this atmosphere doesn't have any empathy. Read less

Jeannette Wennerholt — There are no words for how this place has gone downhill. My mother has been in Cedar Crest for a month fighting a blood infection and she has not gotten a shower once. I begged for someone to sponge bathe her, after I washed her hair myself a nurse came in with wipes and complained the entire time. ... Read moreNo one seems to know what’s going on with the patient, doctors come few and far between. They had her waiting over an hour and a half to use the restroom, she ended up sitting in her own filth. The care she has received is comparable to that of how we care for livestock. We are trying to transfer her out of there immediately. The department of health really needs to investigate, especially the 7th floor. Unacceptable. Read less

Dafnis Batista — I went to the ER last Saturday because I was having extremely painful abdominal pain, spitting clots of blood, and fainted the day before. After a 6 hour wait I was finally admitted, when admitted sheets were dirty full of stains and my bed had scratch and stains marks.After explaining my pain to my... Read more doctor all he did was judge my mom for not bringing me earlier and blamed me for the way I was feeling he said “your too small and skinny and your doing this to yourself” he then chuckled while I was tears. I was very weak and could barely stand so my mom suggested an IV to be put in the nurse agree but said he made the final call and that he was conservative of “his things”. I told him I threw up 5 times and said “you haven’t thrown up while here so you don’t need one just drink water”. The worst doctor I have ever met and this place is most definitely not sanitary.The doctors name is Steve G. hardy steer clear of him !!!!! Read less

Abi Savage — Absolutely disgusting and unacceptable conditions on the 6th floor main hospital wing. I’ve stayed in cheap motels nicer and CLEANER. You could CLEARLY VISBLY see a build up of dirt around the cove base, wall paper stained and peeling off! Floor looked like it hadn’t been swept or moped in a week !!!... Read more Had patient beds so closely together that you could have rested your feet on the opposite bed. No ventilation, the list could go on. I wouldn’t take my dog here Read less

Tattooed Rebel Girl — My adopted dad is staying at this hospital and I went to visit him yesterday and I can honestly say this hospital is another great place that with needing the care that he does I couldn't ask for a better hospital. The nurses are really nice and he is being taken care of perfectly. He has 3 blockages... Read more in his heart and will need a quadruple bypass. I want to thank the nurses and doctors for being so caring with him. Update: After a conference with 6 doctors, they decided to not do the surgery because the end result will end in him dying. He was put on some medication to hopefully get the blood flow through the valves and through the arteries. I know they did their best for him but the cons well outweighed the pros. I lost my mother in 2017 and I'm not ready to part with guy who's treated me like a second daughter. Update: The man who was like my dad has passed away on January 16. I will miss him always. The doctors did their best to keep him with us for as long as possible. Ty for giving us a bit more time with him. Read less
