A co-worker of mine had a heart attack in April of 2019. he came back to work around Christmas 2020. i have heard him tell his story enough that i can probably tell it better than him.
I can't say whether he is telling the truth but here is the part of the story that i find hard to believe: he went home and his wife took him to local hospital. They say he is having a heart attack and to take him to Tyler. He gets there to ER. They say yes, he is having a heart attack and put him in waiting room for 1.5hrs. Then they see him and say they will do surgery the next day. He has quadruple by-pass done.
i can't believe a ER, especially one know for it's heart hospital, would put a patient having a heart attack in the waiting room for 1.5hrs before seeing him.
i went to same place when i thought i was having one and as soon as my wife mentioned possible heart attack, they had me in a room working on me RIGHT THEN(turns out mine was afib).
He says it was because he didn't have insurance....i didn't either
just seems strange to me. have y'all ever heard of something like this? He is trying to sue the hospital but can't find a lawyer to take the case....
