I had an 11:45AM appointment yesterday to see Dr. Jonathan Simhaee in the Englewood office. I arrived at 11:40AM and checked in. 45-minutes later at 12:30PM I asked the receptionist when the doctor might be ready to see me (as I watched 8-9 other patients called, some of them coming in after me). Her response was "he will see you soon," and then went back to chatting with colleagues. At 12:45PM, I again asked and was told "there are two people ahead of you..." What??? How? No emotion and no sense of concern. I realized then I was just a number in the system, which was so surprising because the doctor who referred me goes out of his way to make his patients feel like they really matter. Finally, at 1:15PM, I approached to remind her I had been waiting 1 1/2hours. A puzzled look came over her face: What was happening!!! After she checked her computer screen for a couple of minutes (not sure for what), she went in the back and next thing I knew someone called my name. I went into Dr. Simhaee's office and he entered shortly after me, and without even looking up, or making any reference or apology for running so late, (we're not talking 15-30-minutes, but 1 1/2 hours!) he just launched into "so what's the problem, even though the referring doctor had sent him a full report and MRI results which he hadn't bothered to read. It also hit me at that moment that when I last saw this doctor, 5-years ago, I had a similar negative experience. Unfortunately, my memory kicked in too late. I knew at this point that there was no way I was going to stay, even if it meant spiting myself. This place is a factory. I also knew at this point for my own sanity, I had to ask Dr. Simhaee what happened, hoping his response might evidence some concern or understanding. Instead, I got.... "I'm slammed; it's the holidays; I had an emergency." There was no apology or sense of concern." besides throwing the receptionist under the bus and saying he would talk to her later. I am the first to acknowledge that emergencies happen and appointments can run over time. That said, there's a way this should have been handled and it starts in the waiting room with the receptionist or whoever expressing some concern or acknowledgment of the situation. That didn't happen, ZILCH! So, I couldn't really be surprised when there was no acknowledgment from Jonathan SImhaee. This holier than thou culture flows from the top. Keeping patients waiting is "business as usual here." There's no other reasonable conclusion in the absence of someone from management "owning," acknowledging and attempting to ameliorate the situation. Here, the doctor-patient relationship is purely transactional. I am in the process of securing a new appointment with a new doctor.

Patient Abandonment by Neurosurgeon at Critical Moment…read more Dr. Goldberg evaluated my 82-year-old mother at Englewood Hospital for progressive spinal stenosis with severe neurological symptoms. Dr. Goldberg stated he would not perform surgery at Englewood Hospital due to concerns about post-surgical complications and the hospital's inability to handle them. Dr. Goldberg stated he would sign transfer paperwork anywhere, at any time, by anyone who asks to help facilitate transfer to a specialty care hospital. Then Dr. Goldberg disappeared. No explanation. No communication. No reassignment to another neurosurgeon. I contacted Dr. Goldberg's office requesting he follow through on his commitment. No response. My mother is now mostly wheelchair-bound with urinary retention and inability to move her bowels. She continues to deteriorate by the day. She is currently hospitalized with an unknown outcome. This could have potentially been reversed if Dr. Goldberg had not abandoned her at her most vulnerable time of need. This is patient abandonment. Dr. Goldberg, at my mother's most vulnerable time of need: will you help, or will you abandon her again? If you cannot trust a doctor to follow through on facilitating the care they themselves recommended, how can you possibly trust them to handle post-operative complications?

I had a very disappointing experience with this provider. I had taken the time to write down my…read moresymptoms and timeline because I was anxious and wanted to make sure I communicated everything accurately. Almost immediately after the visit started, I was repeatedly interrupted and the provider began making assumptions about my situation before I had the opportunity to explain the full picture. I understand that she ultimately felt I needed to be evaluated at urgent care and that some things cannot be appropriately evaluated through telehealth. I have no issue with being advised to seek in-person care. My concern was the way the conversation was handled. When I asked if I could please finish explaining so she could have the complete picture, I felt dismissed rather than listened to. When you're already anxious about a health concern, being able to speak to your healthcare provider and feel heard is extremely important. I left the visit feeling more frustrated and dismissed than reassured. I hope this is something that can be addressed because patients deserve to feel listened to, even when the ultimate recommendation is to seek care elsewhere.
