New York Community Hospital: Emergency Room

"was in the emergency my father 84 years old doesn’t have his faculties mentally and he couldn’t clearly understand or communicate to the nurses his problems i offered and was Shushed. i was like ok let the 84 year list his meds and all his medical history as he is in pain it makes perfect sense… then he had to give a urine sample and another nurse asked me if i took it(before that she didn’t say a word to me)….I found my hole time to strange while the patient and his friend were treated quite well. it’s late no one tells me anything so i have to leave i have work in the morning my father calls me the nurse want to know if i’m coming back…… there is a lot more but it was an odd experiences"

"It was awful. I went to the emergency room because of a stomach ache. After a light analysis of the ultrasound on the bed on the couch the doctor told me that I had some kind of complicated situation and it was necessary to look through a special machine. this machine is called a cat scan after checking on this machine the doctors began to say such frightening things: That my ovaries have crossed over to each other if they are not disconnected they will die because of this I cannot have children. That it was very dangerous and that they wanted to do After they said these phrases we are sitting with my husband in a panic listening to this information and I start crying. And at this point they give us a piece of paper to sign, we didn't even have time to ask what it was just signed because we were in a panic worrying. They said we had no choice and they had already called an ambulance for us to redirect me to another clinic that has a special machine that examines ultrasound more clearly and accurately after some time came the ambulance, I was taken on a gurney in the car and we drove 20 minutes to another hospital. Before we left the hospital, we asked for information from nurses, doctors, all assured that all information will be transferred all the documents, all the paperwork and tests that have been done will be transferred to the new clinic in a new hospital. And it turned out to be false, because we went to a new clinic, we had to fill out the system again, they did not have any details of what happened, they asked everything from the beginning. Two hours later I was referred to a gynecologist, he did the procedure and told me completely different information from the other hospital. That there was no ovarian plexus and it was just a cyst. We were shocked, because we were deceived, because there was no gynecologist at the other clinic and they intimidated us and sent us to another clinic. All the treatment they gave me was just painkillers. I was told to just drink more ibuprofen. It was my first experience with emergency and it was just awful."

"I unexpectedly ended up in this hospital due to a deep vein thrombosis in my right leg diagnosed the day before. My therapist insisted on urgent hospitalization and I even had to leave my car in a car service where it underwent state inspection and maintenance. I expected long hours in the waiting room and in the Emergency Room but was surprisingly very quickly arranged and then examined by Dr. Das with the help of Nurse Dilya. Two hours later I already was in the cardiology division where the course of intensive therapy began. In 4 days I was almost recovered and was discharged home for further outpatient treatment. Special thanks to Dr. Yefim Ornstein and Nurse Lena Dunulina for the effective treatment and attention given to me. I also want to note the good conditions in that division meal inclusive as well as the cleanliness and order in all rooms."

"WORST HOSPITAL YOU CAN GO TO - for starters I came in with severe flank pain and advised them that it may be kidney stones since I had it before. The did a CT AND RAN TESTS AND CAME BACK AND TOLD ME THERE WAS NOTHING - NO INFECTION OR STONE. They discharged me saying they aren’t sure why I’m having severe pain and didn’t give me medication for when I got home. I WAS IN SO MUCH PAIN THE NIGHT I CAME HOME I HAD TO GO TO LENOX HILL WHERE THEY DID ANOTHER CT SCAN AND FOUND A STONE IN MY KIDNEY AND SAW THAT I HAD A SLIGHT INFECTION. This hospital is one to die in cause they will just misdiagnose you. Please don’t take your loved ones here"

"HOSPITAL FROM HELL!!! if you love your love ones, don't go here!!! This was the worst hospital I have ever visited. My mom was there for 9 days. The nurse was rule. The staff argued in front of the elderly patients. They put my mom in the room with men patients. After her dialysis, they forgot to put her oxygen back on which caused her oxygen, blood pressure and heart to drop. And my mom left with bed sores."
