They had no answers as to how they prioritize the patients they see. In most hospitals if you come in with chest pain you are immediately seen. Someone said things would be even slower because they were changing shifts. We got disgusted and left.

You say your heart rate was all over the place and you should have been taken immediately yet then you say you got disgusted and left. Obviously this was not an emergency case even for you if you were okay to just leave.
