Does Methodist university hospital in Memphis Tennessee have a number for complaints?

I was treated like a piece a crap while on the behavorial health unit at Methodist University Hospital. I was fully aware I needed treatment but wanted to go to another hospital but instead of transfering me they got me committed there. I was denied the right to make any kind of formal complaint. The patient advocate stated she could not do anything about it. Upon pressure, she revealed the unit director and promised to e-mail him. The staff lied and said I already spoke to him. He made no attempt to speak to me either. I was mistreated by being falsely accused of calling 911, yelled at, not being treated for medical issues, being made fun of by the medical director and I even was told that I was burden to taxpayers for being on Medicare. If Medicare is such a burden to taxpayers the hospita needs not to accept money from them.

Can a Protestant have an Anglican wedding ceremony in Cyprus?

Just to point out, the Anglican church is a protestant church, indeed it is the main protestant church. King Henry VIII (8th) split from the Roman Catholic Church in the 16th century due to not being allowed to divorce one woman and marry another; the Anglican (Church of England) church has been considered theprotestant religion ever since. The monarch of the UK is the head of the Anglican religion much like the Roman Pope is the head of the Roman Catholic church. The current head is Queen Elizabeth II. Anglican miniters (priests) do consider the Anglican church to still be Catholic in the latin sense of that word, which means "universal" Anglican churches only allow someone to marry in their churches if at least one of the parties getting married is a member of the Anglican faith (from any country, not just the UK)
