WARNING: My wife was an AGMC cancer patient receiving chemotherapy through a PICC line they'd inserted.

3 days after chemotherapy, she ran a 104F degree tempWe made appointment with her doctor there, for that morning. He sent her for lab work, and then he REFUSED to see her. Receptionist said Dr. said it was probably only the flu,to go home an take Tylenol. We never even saw a nurse.

4 days later, my wife was taken by ambulance to AGMC -- diagnosed with sepsis from her PICC line. She was admitted,.and noted she was in remission -- no active cancer, but was now sepsis. She died 18 days later, 2 hours after being forcibly evicted from AGMC.

Earlier lab report distinctly said she had a severe problem, but Dr. NEVER looked at that report. If he or nurse had seen her, I've been told she'd most likely still be alive.

I filed a complaint with AGMC a full year ago. They said they'd investigate, but refuse to even talk to me.

One of AGMC's dirty secrets

very good surgeons and staff
