Review For The Waiting Room

It's a vivid portrait of the crisis in health care policy, with the caregivers and clinic itself as much on life support as the sick people.
Colin Covert-Minneapolis Star Tribune

A moving portrait of people doing their jobs under very difficult circumstances - and, in virtually every moment we see, doing them with efficiency, wisdom and compassion.
Moira MacDonald-Seattle Times

Nicks nets moments that are at turns horrific and touching, redemptive of those seeking treatment and the workers who provide it where no one else will.
Elizabeth Horkley-Philadelphia Inquirer

The level of frankness and vulnerability of those featured suggests just how compassionate a filmmaker Nicks (who acted as his own cinematographer) must be.
Lisa Kennedy-Denver Post

Both a depressing indictment of a system that prioritizes health care based on insurance coverage and, at the same time, uplifting, if only because of the extraordinary professionals who keep it going - barely.
Bruce Demara-Toronto Star

Eloquently portrays the faults and limitations of the American health care system, even as it punctures some of the most toxic stereotypes surrounding it.
Ann Hornaday-Washington Post

If you want to understand how the American system of health care delivery works for people without employer-sponsored health insurance, I can think of no better introduction than watching Peter Nicks' documentary The Waiting Room.
Sarah Boslaugh-PopMatters

A dramatic and inspiring look at a piece of the U.S. health care problem.
Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)-St. Paul Pioneer Press

Grim but enlightening, perhaps required viewing for those who care to debate themselves blue about a crisis they'll never fully understand.
Brian Orndorf-Blu-ray.com

One of 2012's better documentaries... the gut-punch effectiveness of Peter Nicks' film lies in its forthrightness, and how it avoids speechifying.
Brent Simon-Shared Darkness

The galvanizing chronicle of a 24-hour period at the emergency room of a public hospital in Oakland, California.
Jennifer Merin-About.com

If people believe Mitt Romney's assertion that emergency rooms are a solution for the uninsured, this is a powerful rebuke.
Brett Michel-Boston Phoenix

Documentary filmmaker [Peter] Nicks provides us with an eye opening work about the life in a day of an ER that makes any reality TV pale in comparison.
Robin Clifford-Reeling Reviews

recalls Frederick Wiseman with voice overs...an engrossing, eye opening look at the mess American healthcare is in, the heroics involved in propping it up and the endurance necessary these days to be sick without insurance.
Laura Clifford-Reeling Reviews

For hard-edged documentary snap with the all-important local angle, it would be hard to beat this film.
Kelly Vance-East Bay Express
