Putnam Hospital Emergency Department - Carmel Hamlet (NY)

5 /5 D R: Outstanding! The two security guys made me smile as I walked in to an empty waiting room. I was taken into my own private room 5 min later. When a nurse promptly came in to go over my reason for the visit. 5 to 10 min later, a doctor came in and let me explain everything. He ordered thorough testing, blood work, catscan and gave me an estimate of how long it would take to get the results. The radiology department staff were so friendly! They explained everything and got me a warm blanket. The bloodwork and IV were seamless! I dont even have a mark on my arm today. Putnam will def be our go to ER in the future.

1 /5 Jessica Moreno: Bad service, bad attitude. The doctor on call Seemed annoyed by us being there. And the fact that my daughter is a minor. Apparently they don’t treat children here.

5 /5 nancy tucker: My husband had to visit the emergency room in the middle of the night on 8/8/23. I cannot say enough about the care Dr. Kennedy and the nurse on call (Im sorry that I do not remember her name) gave my husband. Dr. Kennedy was thorough in his exam and has a very calming and reassuring bedside manner (and might I add a quick wit!). His nurse made sure my husband understood what the prescribed medicines were for and how to care for his wound after discharge. And might I mention we were lucky enough to have no wait and were in and out in exactly 3 hours! How blessed my husband was to have such wonderful professionals tend to him.

5 /5 Fintan Powers: Each of the personnel was kind, efficient and attentive. Dr. Abjani ( director of ER) was calm and thorough in his interview of my situation as were Dr. Kline (anesthesiologist) and Dr. Smith (knee/hip specialist). Their schedules worked out just right and I was on my way home just 4 hours after dislocating my new hip. A special word about the hospital staff: several staff members (not in ER) went well beyond their normal duties to help me in my crisis.

1 /5 Nicole Macchia: Went to ER for an allergic reaction to an injection I received. Saw Dr. Manchester, who laughed it off and told me it was sunburn. I will not be going back there. He was very condescending and told me “I assure you it is not an allergic reaction to the injection. It is absolutely sunburn”. I have not been exposed to the sun and he still stuck by his diagnosis.
