Opinion by a Parent for Families

Prairie Care Sucks (Maple Grove and Edina) is not affiliated with Prairie Care Hospital/ Clinic Services and is strictly a parent's opinion of care and billing practices based on our own unique experiences. Some of the sites listed for information research may reference that organization, but we are not endorsing them. They lawyered up. We didn't. We're just telling our story and hope you'll give it some consideration and think about a second opinion.

We will not accept personal medical information or unverifiable information. We are an opinion site. This site welcomes the opinion of other parents but will not include identifying information.
Libelous comments or potentially libelous or untrue comments will not be posted. They are not welcome. We only want to have an opinion be heard.

Again, this is an opinion site only and we ask that it stays family friendly and useful.

Prairie Care is welcome to have their attorney send an opinion commentary, questions, or concerns to be considered for posting, and we will diligently treat it the same way they treated ours.
