multi-speciality hospital meaning - #17438
I am really confused about this whole multi-speciality hospital meaning thing. Like, I went to my local hospital last week, right? I had this crazy persistent pain in my back and thought maybe it was something serious. The ER doc said they would refer me to a multi-speciality hospital, which sounded good at first. But honestly, I didn’t really get what multi-speciality hospital meaning was. Are they saying there's more than one kind of doctor there? Just like, a bunch of specialties under one roof? I mean, I’ve heard of hospitals having heart doctors and ortho specialists, but is there actually a difference when they say multi-speciality? I guess I worry about whether I actually need to go there or if it’s just for complex cases. Does that mean I will see several doctors about my back pain? My friend mentioned they tend to deal with a wide range of conditions, but does that quality get diluted or something? And what if I just need a simple check-up? I'm lost on this whole multi-speciality hospital meaning. If someone could help explain that to me, I’d be super grateful!
