In response to Diana's posting....your & your friends experiance at St. Francis was not good because you must of made it that way!!! Thanks to the wonderful Doctors & ALL staffs at St.Francis...they were able to save the life of my husband which was a victim of gun shot wounds. Every staff includingnuns & priests were very healing to the soul and not to mention body (Dr.'s & nurses). Sad that this victim was not saved on time, but don't try to point fingers at others! May the lord have mercy on all the victims of a crime and condolence to this man's family & friends!

I hate to post this but..... St. Francis has become the next Killer King. Those of you that are older than 25 should know what I am referring to. That hospital is pathetic. I REALLY hope that the man died from his injuries sustained and not due to lack of attention by medical staff. Numerous family members and friends have reported negligence in the waiting rooms, doctors and staff are disrespectful, and I'm hesitant to say, but I also hear the Priests are RUDE!!!!!
