The Best 18 MEDICAL SERVICES near Bronx, NY (Part 2)

kujtim B My mother had an appointment with her optometrist , which was pre scheduled we arrived 20 min prior to our appointment and was told to wait in lobby. We walked in so see a long line of patients and were told to stay at end of line because we arrived too early for our appointment the front desk staff was very very rude and unprofessional no manners or respect of elderly patients especially when I informed her my mother had Covid and a hard time standing

Dee R I visited 3 different departments on different floors and everyone was friendly and professional. My doctor, nurses, receptionists, and technicians were all plesent and welcoming. Ive recommended Montefiore to my wife and other family members because of this experience last week.

Lena Smith I spent 16 of the best years of my life at Misericordia Hospital in the Bronx. Love to reminisce on those years and how I wish I could do it all over again.

Keven Bernard Born there long again

Tina Schweid We can not express how wonderful the staff at Calvary Hospital was to our mother/wife during the last 5 weeks. They treated her with care and dignity. They were patient and supportive to my family as well. Floor 5N is staffed with so many amazing nurses and technicians. Thank you Rey, Nadia, Suzette, Mony and all the others ❤️❤️

Amy Auerbach My 96 year old mom was at Calvary from May 14th until she died on August 19th. She started off on the 3rd floor, to the right of the elevator, and I was devastated that I chose to send her there. Luckily, she was transferred to the 6th floor, to the left, and I was able to sleep peacefully. One day in I felt at peace. Ann Marie and her staff were the best. Cal, my very favorite nurse, made me feel like my mom, and I, were cared for. They treated us all like people,who were grieving. My friends at the front desk asked me every day what treats I was bringing my mom…and always wished me a good visit. They checked on us both daily and reached out to me after she passed away. They made a horrible time in my life feel safe and seen

Matanzo Morgan (Beaumont 187) Worst staff ever the doctors never do nothing take you weeks to get a refill. All I do is there is chitchat and have fun and be on the phone and I’ll do nothing for the patience you go there for an appointment at 11. You don’t come out of there up till five or 6 o’clock in the afternoon. Worst doctors worst staff worse everything when 4 prescriptions on a Thursday today is Tuesday of the following week and I still haven’t got my refills yet my diabetes haven’t went away, so why I don’t have no refills.

Ali Algaheim This Health center is all a parent would ever want in their neighborhood, the staff there treat you like family, they would make you feel special in a way! The pediatricians there are also as good, they play with children, make noises with infant, i don’t even like Jacobi but The staff here are the reason why I have decided to bring my children here! Good luck and keep up the good work.

Barbra Martinez Love this place kinda sad since my favorite doctor left.i hope she comes back.

Kevin If this office was able to be rated a zero I would rate it a zero only 2- 3 staff members actually have a good attitude about there job the rest are miserable the nurses have the most disgusting attitude securities got a disgusting attitude the desk personnel has the most disgusting attitude like they all dont want to be there they need to quit and hire a whole new staff they look like they hate working the office stinks theyre so rude and racist even the pharmacy is trash with people with attitude issues if I had my choice to not let the nurse touch me it would be that I would not want to be touched by these nurses its sad the only people in the entire office only worth speaking to are a handful of therapists and psychiatrist they seem to be nice and scared of the rest of the staff up front its a shame that soon maybe some of those nice employees are going to have to leave until another office due to the huge disgust that from the nurses office to the front door is just horrible

Mark Simon As others have noted, they never answer the phone. Dont get your care here.

Carolina Patricio That clinic is very good

Paul Olavarria My experience was a 5 star ..everyone in this clinic help me I. Every way..the doctors and staff was absolutely remarkable.. it was wonderful!! Thankyou!!! So much.. I recommend anyone to come to this urgent care.. 7 stars for sure!!!

Gene Austin The doctors are skilled and capable and they even take walk-ins. However communication between visits is very challenging and frustrating. They have numerous locations but only one centralized phone line. Further, the call center reps cant even call a provider directly. On addition their mobile app is very poor with no means to send a message to a provider or to view lab results. Overall the customer service and communication challenges detra#ct from the quality care that is provided.

M A My brother in-law waited for a yogurt for two days, I had to call Food and Nutrition and speak with a manager thanks you Tatiana for helping me she assured me would go and see him. No thanks to Barbara , She stated cannot take my order being that I was not him.This is not how you treat patients...

Thania Ramirez It is incredible that a hospital to treat cancer does not have the necessary equipment for the comfort of its patients. The chairs are supposed to be reclining and they are not suitable for sitting only. The patients are there for at least 4 to 5 hours because they cannot reclining the chair that happens with these hospitals with this one in particular is very annoying

marcela gomez Their treatment for patients is 4 stars both in the Emergency Room and in hospital stay ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️ But they are extremely far away that you need to take the B12 bus to and from the last subway train stop on the 6 train and make sure you’re at the correct bus stop leaving this hospital because there are 3 bus stops that only certain B12 buses stop at and they will not stop to pick you up regardless if it’s 2am if they don’t make stops there EVEN THOUGH NONE OF THESE STOPS EXPLAINS THIS; and the wait is long and scary late at night so for this I give them zero stars. My last point is at this hospital for some insane reason a psychiatrist has more authority over a Medical Doctor who only works morning shifts Monday through Friday who clears your loved one to be released but then comes a lower level doctor in the evening who rejects the patient’s release due to a psychiatrist wanting to put your loved one on yet more medication WHICH IS THE REASON FOR THEIR ADMISSION TO BEGIN WITH which is medications are cause of your loved one’s fainting spell, constant stomach pain, headaches, and anxiety that prevents them to drink fluids or eat food. *****UPDATE****** after an entire day of bugging the nurse about finding out when would a doctor or psychiatrist come and talk to us for clarification they finally sent someone to explain that they were keeping my loved one over night again just to see how he’s doing on just one medication that had nothing to do with why he was admitted allegedly but it is wonderful news and my final review is Jacobi hospital staff/ nurses, ER nurses/Doctors are ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ and their main doctor is clear and knowledgeable but who only works day shift is ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ but the tedious wait in communication is 1 ⭐️. Regardless of the long wait I recommend this hospital over others including Essence Lincoln Mount Sinai & NYU.

Kaysha Rodriguez Went to the ER, and the Doctors and the Nurses treated me with patiences, attentiveness, and kindness. However, the entire process at the ER is long. I was there for about 5 hours. If they could speed the process up it would be 5-STARS.

Diara Adames Worst hospital ever. My mom gave birth 4 years ago and my sister in law 2 years ago and everything was great. Today I came in with my sister in law because she was about to give birth. Went to park the car and they didn’t let me go to her room after 1h!!. Mind you, she barely knows any english and only had me in the moment. Receptionist was really rude and doctors last forever. Room has no AC and the blankets that they give her had holes in it. Don’t come here unless it’s an emergency!! Update: My sister in law complains about how there’s not attention to her. Her water broke and they made her wait. And LOTS OF LACK OF EMPATHY.

appolloyon7 Excellent hospital they saved my female partner of 33 years gave her a whole new outlook on life when cancer ravaged her chewed her up and spit her out they treat you like family and really helped to save her life again They are top notch excellent service great professionals in life and all services of healthcare This hospital is unparalleled in excellence and God has blessed them and will continue to shine on us all who had the opportunity for second chances in crazy NYC

Roe Hob I called twice on different days to reschedule my procedure. I was informed the staff who does the rescheduling is busy with other patients. I was told someone will call back. No one called me back yet and it has been a few weeks. They need more staff to do the rescheduling. This is very unprofessional!

Anneris Guerrero Been going here for years & Always good experience with Doctors and Staff.

Jasmin Sanabria Don’t go to this hospital!!! The worst staff and incompetent! Ive had two really bad experiences with this hospital. The first I hurt myself and felt I had a hernia. I was in extreme pain. After the c.t scan they told me there was nothing wrong. The doctor was very arrogant and insisted I was fine and sent me home. I went to Lenex hill hospital and turns out I had two hernias and one was strangulated. I needed immediate surgery. Second more recent experience I went to the emergency room with dangerously high blood pressure for two days after a bad fall 2 weeks prior suffering from a concussion. It was the afternoon. The staff was very rude and slow, they ignored the fact that my pressure was high and showed a lack of experience. They never treated my pressure and only checked it once in the 6 hours I was there. And said it wasn’t high enough at the time they checked to be an emergency even though it was way above the normal rate. And I couldn’t lower it on my own for two days. I told them it was fluctuating between 145/95 to 179/115 throughout the day even going to 205 but was sent home. I had to go to another hospital later that night.

T M This hospital is one of the worst I’ve ever encountered. Ive never experienced such unkindness from medical staff. The majority are unprofessional, desensitized, and communicate in an aggressive manner, treating patients with little respect. They often make assumptions and speak to you as if youre not articulate. Ive been here several times, and this experience was by far the worst. If you or a family member is admitted, please ensure someone stays with them, as the treatment is appalling. Only a few staff members showed any kindness or compassion. To make matters worse, I had to assist my father in moving from the transport bed to the table for a CT scan, despite having a medical condition myself. When I communicated my needs, it was ignored because they claimed there was no staff available. This place feels like hell, and I cant understand why it remains open—there must be countless lawsuits against them. I cannot recommend this hospital at all.

Luisa Ruiz I do not recommend the place at all, I was there for around 8 hrs and all the patients were discharge but I had to wait all the time for some results that they already had, the female doctor was in a rush all the time, she did some gyn procedures on me and she even cut me because she was on a rush. My hand is swelling really bad and it’s purple because they pick the wrong vein and then they had to use my order arm for blood. And at the time they was going to give me results the doctor told me basically that I didn’t have nothing and I still have a lot of symptoms and she was on a rush too and sounded so mean like she didn’t care the health of the patient. 0/5 for this place. Btw the guy who did my blood was really nice and always there but I just think he needs more practice.

Lisa Hall I arrived at the ED around 4pm. It was about 4 people in the waiting area. I waited less than 10 mins before i got triaged. They took me in the back a nurse came and asked me 2 questions without introducing herself and told me I was going for x-ray. Waited an 1.5hrs before she came back and asked me to pee. Shortly after that X-ray came. Im still waiting for my results 2hrs later.

Rosey B The freaking worse. They say preventative care is the best care. You definitely will not receive this attending this clinic. I was given an appointment for a primary care physician 6 months in the future only to have it cancelled 2 days before the appointment with no phone call or explanation on why now they wanted to push the appointment back an additional 3 months. (9 months to get a physical they trying to kill patients. What ever problem you have will only get worse waiting 9 months for care. The doctors know this is wrong but dont care about their patients if they keep pushing the appointment back to later dates) Therefore was caused stress which is the number 1 cause of ailment instead of the care I so desperately needed and waited 6 months to get only to not be able to get the care I was seeking.

Manuel Rodriguez Worst clinic ever they even call the cops on me cuz I didn’t want to answer the question about my depression n stress as soon I got to the west side n got hum 5 minutes later police wuz knocking in my door

Arianna Anais I held off on writing this review because I had already had one negative experience with a pediatrician for my son before beginning to bring him to this clinic. Although I was uncomfortable with his pediatricians all wanting information and details on my pregnancy and birth despite him being healthy, all of the initial visits seemed fine. On the last visit before switching doctors the pediatrician hed been seeing was out and he had to be seen by a pediatrician named Dr N Maseda. Initially the visit seemed to be the same as the rest asking for details about his development and any concerns I might have had, when suddenly she asked my nine month old baby who mama was while doing a hand gesture around his head/body and behind his back that resulted in him pointing to her. When I noticed it and said did he just point at you when you asked him who mama was, she got surprised that I noticed and casually said yes before leaving the room and returning with a print out and a childrens book as a gift to for him. This was extremely disturbing and concerning to me and as a black single mother. I have to be extremely vigilant about people with my son and encourage all underprivileged single mothers of color to do the same. I would not recommend this clinic.

Babs Cast I give them five stars because I am diabetic and they on it like definitely on it. The only thing I don’t like is back to back appointments. I do not receive Medicaid and this is out come from my pockets so financially it hurts a little bit but as for the doctors, they perfectly great great, the only thing I said is back to back appointment for the same thing with different doctors but other than that, they absolutely great

Crump Janice This hospital have the rudest doctors I had to deal with in my life.. My mother was in NW stroke unit .The laziest nurses I met in my life was working in this department. Ms. Marg was the worst. The assistants in this department use all the short cuts for care for patients They ran out of supplys to care for patients. The Social Workers in this department, have no empathy for patients. My mother survive her hospital stay. I didnt think she was going to survive. But prayers do work. I can write a lot,I just want your to be aware. I was warn. I ignored it. They live up to their Reputation. Thanks God she still living.

Ivan Rodriguez If I could get zero stars for this hospital, zero stars will be the absolute best even -0. I feel like this hospital was just very racist and very ignorant when it comes down to employment and to as well as staff I apply for a position there where I meet every requirement standard and I apply early than what it posted and I didn’t get the job even though I meet the requirements for the hospital job. Don’t waste your time with this place because this place is just a absolute disgusting individual environment. I wouldn’t throw a dog in this place.

Ivan my son was born in this hospital. thanks to all the nurses, midwives, doctors, and staff that made this process as smooth as possible. we spent 5 days in this hospital and every staff member we had was kind, patient, and understanding!

Herby Phanord Took my 15 year old daughter to the ER this past Valentine’s Day and the experience was absolutely horrible. I asked one of the staff members her name and she responded by bringing her ID card to my face and says I’m a PA. I was too embarrassed to tell her that I wasn’t wearing my glasses and that I wanted her to tell me her name so that I can tell my daughter who’s care she would be under as I waited outside the exam room. One of the nurses assigned to my daughter didn’t introduce herself to either me or my daughter and started poking her with a needle several times because she couldn’t find a vein for the IV. After her failed attempts she asks my daughter, ‘are you always like this?’ As if it were my daughter’s fault that she couldn’t find a vein. My daughter responds to the nurses inquiry by stating, “this is my first time in an ER.” It was only then did the nurse turned to me and asks me what my relationship to the patient was, to which i responded, “I’m her father.” The nurse then says, “Oh” and mumbles something as she walked away. To this my daughter looks over at me and asks, “Is it because I’m black papa?” A more experienced nurse walks in, introduces herself, asks me what my relationship to the patient was, and proceeds to successfully find a vein. I thank this nurse for her exemplary bedside manner and explain to her what my daughter experienced to which the experienced nurse tries to reassure me that it is not what I think it is and that the nurse who was assigned to my daughter is married to a black man, as if colorism is not a level of discrimination that exists among people of color and that the less experienced nurse was simply having a bad day. After waiting nearly five hours for a CT scan the more experienced nurse convinces me not to discharge my daughter under the doctors care and that what I was experiencing at the Hospital was not what I concluded it to be, which was racial discrimination and poor bedside manner. If you are reading this and are maybe considering choosing the ER at NewYork-Presbyterian Allen Hospital for your medical needs and have other options then I will strongly urge you to take your chances at another medical facility but if you are experiencing an emergency then by all means do what is best for you. It is important to mention that not all the staff at NewYork-Presbyterian Allen Hospital lacked professionalism. No. They are staff working at this hospital that made me feel as if my daughter was in good hands and they are very good at what they do. To those staff members I say to you keep up the good work. I thank you for your services. If you are reading this and you are someone who can make a difference at NewYork-Presbyterian Allen Hospital ER then by all means please do better for the community to which you serve and depend on.

Meryl Lee A rheumatologist here tried to tell me I don’t have lupus despite being diagnosed with it for over a decade. He also caused me to have a massive flare.

Gloria Leandro Trying to make an appointment it has taken me over 2 months and still no appt Montefiore is becoming a horrible place When you really need help who do you call? Not Monte
