UCI trauma center
Otto Steinegeweg I fell 30 ft. ,landing on my head and chest, yet no one thought about an xray or MRI of my neck. Even though I complained of tremendous pain in my neck every day and night, it didnt dawn on anyone that maybe something was wrong. I didnt find out about my dislocated neck for 30 days at follow up doctor. He said it was the first time in 30 year career someone came into his office with a dislocated neck, instead of it being taken care of in the emergency room setting.
Also, I was given NO sedative when they set my double compound fracture of left leg.
I was told its the only way they could do it so "go ahead and scream all you want."
I dont know how many commercials I watched on the TV, bragging about what a great Trauma Center I was in.
Best in the country.
