The Best 9 MEDICAL SERVICES near Catskill, NY (Part 3)

Jae Oliveira The nurse practitioner I have and her nurse are absolutely amazing. They respond promptly and care about their patients. The front desk/reception is making me consider finding a new practice. They are completely rude and just try to get their work with patients over with as soon as possible. They’re disrespectful and will only do the bare minimum to help.

Danielle Anechiarico We have Megan as our pediatrician and she’s absolutely amazing she’s so caring and loving towards our twins. The nurses are great and the receptionists are super friendly we’ve never had an issue here.

Eryn Fischer Can you imagine a doctors office denying a three-year-old boy who is having breathing issues and had to be picked up early from daycare? Ive been there many times. Because I didnt have the insurance card with me, they would NOT see him. I am truly speechless. The receptionist told me to go to the emergency room. We have insurance, Im sure something could have been done to find whatever they needed off the card. Crazy world we live in

Emily Carroll The PA (older gentleman, white hair) misdiagnosed my 4 year and I. We came in with terrible coughs. We came because my preschool asked us to get Covid tests and checked for walking pneumonia. The nurse was helpful and the PA laughed us out of the room. We had fevers for 3 days after our visit. I came back when I got my strength back and the same PA gave me an X-ray and found pneumonia in my right lung. He then gave me an antibiotic that doesnt treat pneumonia and an inhaler without a steroid . He told me to go to a hospital if this treatment didnt work. 7 days later I was in the hospital and told my treatment was never going to help. The antibiotics and inhaler were not adequate to treat walking pneumonia. In the end I understand mistakes but not prescribing the appropriate treatment is harmful. We spent many sleepless nights and hours in the hospital due to poor knowledge of proper antibiotics for pneumonia.

Rachel Bates I called to make an appointment and omg the girl on the phone was so rude Im glad I couldnt make the appointment. She very extremely rudely informed me "um dr. Kurtovic is RETIRED, this isnt even his office, so..." so I tell her he was on my cdphp find a doc. And I pushed the number for kinderhook but it gave me to you. Forgetting apparently she JUST told me I called the wrong office, she tells me "well, just because of what isaid doesnt mean I cant schedule you for either place" and then proceeded to explain to me how the phone number I called work like I was stupid. I was so mad I hung up on her and I absolutely will NEVER USE a doctor from kinderhook or valatie, nor will I ever reccomend it.

michael oconnor IMPORTANT! The previous reviews are no coincidence! Made an appointment on April 1st to be seen on June 1st. Sure no big deal, it is understandable with the pandemic. Thats untill i was told my appointment that I made wasnt there anymore (thus it was never created). If you are looking for a new doctor, primary care, good experience as a receptionist or anything even refering to their ergent care next door. STAY AWAY! GO TO HUDSON OR ALBANY!

Ken Johnson Brought my son in with 2 broken wrists (snowboarding). The admission was super fast, and we met with a really nice PA. Quick X rays, very quick getting us into a room. Great, caring nurses, then a really down-to-earth doc. Everything was well-coordinated, and I was very impressed by the level of care.

K. Elise I’ve finally found the strength to share my experience, though it’s incredibly painful. My daughter died due to medical negligence at this ER. I went in a few days before my due date, experiencing unusual symptoms—loss of feeling in my arms, blurred and spotty vision, and a severe, debilitating headache. I was given medication that caused me to seize, and despite being there for nearly 10 hours, only 30 minutes was spent checking on my baby. Shortly after, my daughter died in labor from what was deemed ‘unknown causes,’ but she was in distress. I’m convinced that the inadequate care I received contributed to her fetal distress. I voiced my concerns, but I was met with dismissive and inadequate care. 1) A female attending physician, who wasn’t even sure if the medication she prescribed was safe during pregnancy, repeatedly attempted to insert an IV, stabbing me three times. 2) No one took the time to listen to my concerns or provide reassurance. I was told it was a ‘busy day at the hospital,’ but that didn’t excuse the lack of attention I received. They ran only one NST on my daughter and dismissed any further concerns, assuring me she was fine. But she wasn’t fine. The negligence I experienced has left me with unimaginable grief. I’ll never get my daughter back, and the emotional toll of this loss is something I’ll carry for the rest of my life.

Sumayaa Mohammed The care and support our grandfather received at Ellis Hospital have been nothing short of extraordinary. For over three weeks, he has been in their care, and throughout this entire time, the staff has consistently gone above and beyond to ensure his comfort and well-being. They never gave up on him, even during the most challenging moments, always striving to keep him healthy and at ease. From the very beginning, the team at Ellis Hospital treated our family with compassion, respect, and kindness. Every member of the staff, from the doctors to the nurses, has been incredibly attentive, offering not only excellent medical care but also emotional support for our family during this difficult time. They truly made us feel like we were not just patients, but people they genuinely cared for. Our gratitude for their efforts cannot be expressed enough. The level of care and dedication shown to our grandfather and to us as a family was nothing short of exceptional. We will forever be thankful for the comfort, professionalism, and kindness they provided during this journey. The team at Ellis Hospital truly made a difference, and we will always remember their unwavering commitment to our loved one’s care.

christopher walker I just had an abdominal aorta repair. Everything went good. Recovery room was good and I spent 2 days in ICU. The nurses there are 5 star all the way. The meals were very good. Stuffed chicken breast, meat loaf,good veggies, they feed you well. Very easy admission and discharge. Thank you so much!

Lynda Bilotta Terrible. Not helpful at all. Ended up in emergency room after suffering for 2 months. Do not gooo
