James J. Peters Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Center - Bronx (NY)

Raheya Wilform Dr. Cean supersedes my expectations for pain management. He’s altruistically inclined, and his staff are professional, proficient, and kind. They provide a welcoming and comforting atmosphere. I’ve yet to wait longer than twenty minutes though be seen.

Shantice Whyte Its not often I feel accommodated or understood at a hospital. Because Im there for treatment because of whatever illness. But the STAFF here. The nurses, the nurse assistants, the cafeteria staff, the cleaners, the doctors. They were all working together, hand in hand, communication was great, and organizational and roles were understood and followed and went beyond that.. Im grateful to them, and I love their visitors policy because I really needed my partner and familial support. Only critique is. The space in the ER between beds is ridiculous the staff have nothing to do with that of course but even they cant get to do their jobs properly because of that Ossie and its reaching to a point where its a privacy violation issue.

Gabriel Smart-Abbey Very efficient and dedicated personnel. From the front desk to meeting the doctor, excellent care and attention was given specifically to my case. The doctor who saw me was very attentive and willing to make sure she got her diagnosis right. Thanks to all the staff at the Westchester Avenue location. I’m grateful.

Linette Tyler I have been going to see Dr. Koors for over 20 years. She has been treating my sons and I Love Dr. Koors and the staff. They have always been supportive, professional, attentive and most especially caring. I am thankful for them.

Soils Minor I Live the doctor a lot. service is good. She is sweet. BUT After your appointment they automatically create more appointments on your behalf even if you dont request them. And for the rest of your life you have to call in to cancel these appointments that are emailed and voicemail to you. its annoying! I even told them I am moving to Japan just to get it to stop and 3 weeks later I got emailed to confirm another appointment.

Leesa O MUST READ!! IF YOU HAVE A CHILD BELOW THE AGE OF 18YO, DO NOT! TAKE THEM TO LINCOLN HOSPITAL. They have no pediatric psych department for children. When you get there, they ask you whats wrong, depending on how bad your child is going through something, they drug them and or strap them down and leave them in the back. These children sit or lay in an open, but isolated area in the back with no doctor or therapist to talk to for days. Other than a Psych doctor coming in around 9-10am to call their name and ask, "Do you feel like hurting yourself or others"?. If they say no, they go home. But God forbid they say yes or you allow them to be admitted. Then they will be trapped there for days on end with nothing to do or anyone to talk to, no diagnosis or actual mental health treatment because the whole time you will be "waiting for a bed" at another hospital that actually see pediatric psych patients. They wont discharge your child for you to take them to another hospital yourself because they were marked for admission and cant leave unless by them in an ambulance to go to the other hospital. "According to their policy " While there they use coercion, threats of calling ACS or you getting thrown out, bullying and intimidation tactics to keep you your child there and to keep you from refusing drugs for your child or leaving with your child, when they do nothing to help them. It really breaks my heart to know children are being treated like that. There would be 0 stars, but the one star could be for some of the good nurses that are there. *Photo of little room in back where psych children stay.

Erica Stanback Tara the lab technician is very sufficient in her work. She interacts with the patients to make them feel safe and comfortable. Shes a peoples person. I always feel comfortable with her drawing my blood.

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.
