Samaritan Hospital - Albany Memorial Campus - Albany (NY)

April B Shannon and her nurse Tymeka are both caring, compassionate, and thorough providers! They treated my 80+yr old grandmother for the last 4yrs and I couldn’t have asked for better care. I highly recommend them both!

Joyce Bouchard The staff were well trained able to get me started as soon as I arrived. Everyone was courteous and knew exactly what to do so that I was ready to be seen at my appointment time. I saw a PA, Allison, and she was on time and prepared to see me. The facility is clean and easily accessed from a generous parking lot. It was a good experience.

Sarah Dugger Nothing new i just love albany visits ea time i go there i see something i have never seen before and the people are very nice everywhere i go in Albany.

Elise Zvirzdin Came here for surgery and had a great experience! Everyone was friendly and helpful, which made the whole experience go more smoothly. They helped alleviate some of my nerves by getting to know me and making a few jokes. The post-op nurse Joel is straight from heaven! What a patient and compassionate person. I was so grateful to have him take care of me when I was in pain.

Lorraine Rice Dr. Adelson is fantastic. Not only is he an expert in his field he has an awesome bedside manner taking time with his patients to make them feel comfortable while understanding all technical aspects of their particular situation. While you may need to be patient in wait time to see him he is well worth the wait!

Sheila Carpenter As a social worker advocating for a young man needing services from OPWDD I have had incredible assistance from Linda Herron, RN. This lady has been absolutely outstanding. In an attempt to advocate for this young man, 30 years of age with a dx of ADHD and autism, there are different challenges due to this . Understanding that she does not create the process, but she does have to make it work. They are incredibly lucky to have her on staff… And so are we. We all know that the school system fell short when they did not do an appropriate referral for Ethan upon graduation . So we are already behind the eight ball.. Her communication is consistent, Her explanation of needed documents that are unusual to this case is concise, her review of documents is timely. With all that, she is always polite and courteous, always available, always Returns calls, is pleasant and easy to deal with… Even when there are legitimate gripes like my computer system not working on my end and printing not coming out properly on her end because how my Apple system talks poorly to her computer system…. Never ever does she express a moment of agitation or aggravation. As a social work supervisor retired from New York State office of people with developmental disabilities after 33 years, this is the lady that everyone wants on their team. The New York State Department of Health is very lucky to have her… and so are we, the public. Many thanks, Linda. You do both the Department of Health as well as all Nurses, very proud.!

Sylvia Washington This location has always been my preference above the main campus! The moral here is much more positive and friendly. When an opportunity came to switch jobs, I did not hesitate. Im glad to be here! Hooray for the sevices here, especially the south campus choices cafe!!!!

Kathleen Ehlinger Dr. Scott Purga is a class act. Very informative with excellent bed side manner. He is patient, kind and caring. He puts you at ease and is a great listener. I felt heard! Bottom line, I am grateful to have him as my doctor. Kathleen
