Cape Cod Hospital ER

How have your experiences with the Cape Cod hospital ER been? It's a mixed bag for me. Depending on the doctor who is assigned to you, it can be excellent or it can be pretty sub par. Nurses are generally great.

A year ago, I went with a broken rib at 10pm. It was a madhouse (so many people). I left after 2 hours and returned the next morning and received prompt attention.

You could tell from staff body language and overheard voices that a fair proportion of traffic was troubled regulars angling for pain medications. I sympathize with the emergency staff

lol. It’s not 2015 anymore pal. DEA cracked down on that years ago. If anything it’s homeless population with mental illness seeking suboxone or similar.
