Corpus Christi Medical Center

Horrible place, respitory staff never hooked up my husband's Cpap with water, toliet broke & couldn't get it fixed, took forever to get any pain meds, food in cafeteria sucks.

The worse Place I have ever seen in my life . The Doctors and the staff can care less . My Father in Law is Dead becasue of this place .. Never gave us answers I Live in Florida and I have never seen a Hospital like Regional . BEWARE STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE . We seen 4 people die in a few days in this horrible place , They let anyone in the ICU unit with out asking who they are . We will never know why a Healthy man just died .. STAY AWAY PLEASE TAKE YOUR LOVED ONES SO WERE ELSE ...

My father died at this hospital. He walked into the ER with breathing problems. He was basically given an oxygen mask and left to sit for another hour. The personnel at the desk told my mother they were very busy. After an hour they started working on my father. At one point after a CT Scan he told the doctor that he couldn't breath and he was dying. They finally put a tube in him. He never woke up again. He was taken to ICU where we had a nurse who kept telling us that he was going to die. I think we pretty much gathered that on our own. He died 30 hours after WALKING into the ER.. NO DOCTOR TALKED TO US ABOUT WHY HE DIED OR WHAT CAUSED HIS DEATH. There was a doctor that pronounced him dead, but he didn't talk to us at all about what happened my father. We thought someone else was going to come. But no one ever came. The nurse was supposed to talk with us about an autopsy but didn't. She just signed off that we didn't want one without telling us. If he had died within 24 hours he would have automatically received an autopsy. We were a grieving family. It never dawned on us that the hospital didn't know why he died until we received the death certificate two weeks later. It read "Pneumonia". Dad wasn't having any pneumonia symptoms before that day he went into the hospital. We talked to his doctors after the fact and they didn't know what happened to him. Because we were never offered the autopsy option (we didn't know we could have one) we will never know what happened to my dad. This experience with this hospital was the worst experience of our lives. We wish we could go back and take him to another hospital. My dad was 72 but he had been healthy and had a longer life the live. The best answer we got from his doctor two weeks later was that he breathed in something he shouldn't have... We will never know what happened to our beloved father. My son will never get the chance to know the greatest person I have ever known. We watched my father die in a hospital that in our opinion didn't seem to care.
