WEST TEXAS HOSPITAL

How much does the public know about the now closed West Texas Hospital? What about the 32 physicians that had ownership in the hospital? Of course the local Abilene media did not attempt to dig and get the real story. The congressmen that finally came in and closed the hospital before more patients died were from out of state. Our own wonderful congressmen from the state of Texas failed to touch it. Of course our own State Rep. Susan King's husband may be one of the doctors involved, so of course there was no action or talk there.
There are pending lawsuits against West Texas Hospital and the physicians involved due to the death of a patient at West Texas Hospital. You can read a story on the death at the hospital by googling West Texas Hosptil/New York Times.

About Me

Abilene, Texas, United States
My name is Gary Reed and I live in Abilene, Texas. In 2007, my mother was in Abilene Regional Medical Center. She and her family had repeatedly instructed the physicians and hospital staff NOT to give a specific drug (procrit)to her as it was the cause of her being there in the first place. However, she was injected with the drug again, sent to CCU, and never recovered. Since then, I have met with numerous other families who have reported similiar experiences with Abilene Regional Medical Center. For one year, I have attempted to dicuss this with ARMC staff and physicians and they have refused. I have also spoken with the attorney for the hospital in Houston, Texas. He admitted there were problems at the hospital and they would be contacting me soon to discuss these issues. It never happened. I will share as much information as possible here. Some I will not share at this time. If you or someone you know has experienced problems with this hospital, please contact me at: gnr99a@hotmail.com
