Got home and pain worse so go to 466a er just couple miles from my house. Only person there and after telling nurse my issue she immediately put an iv of pain killer and anti nausea drug. Dr came in immediately without even examining me we’re doing some scans of the area. Immediately had the scan after fifteen minutes came in and said you javelin a kidney stone, the size being maybe might pass on its own or have it removed. Forgot to mention when nurse gave me that I’ve, 10 minutes later the paid subsided.

I had a kidney stone removed at Orlando Health Hospital in Clermont. They have a urology group next door that has privileges in the hospital so I was in the ER at 10 am and in my room at 2pm. While in the ER had Cat scan done and spoke with hospitalist and urologist. Surgery next day to remove stone. Beautiful ER with 40 rooms. A rating on Leapfrog for hospitals. Best care ever!
