Pros
Friendly staff
Cons
There absolutely no communication between physicians in different specialties. The residents are not being guided properly, ordering unnecessary tests without being taught how to clinically navigate through why the given test is not suitable for the patient. The business model of HCA is outdated, you can’t count tests ordered and compare it to staff hours without looking first into if you are actually getting reimbursed properly for the rendered services but I did not get paid to consult so I digress.
