I have been donating blood here for years back when they were still called Unyts. I normally donate…read moreat the collection location in Tonawanda. My experiences there have always been great. They are very friendly and competent. Going back about 50 years I used to donate to the Red Cross. Red Cross does wonderful things for people in need but I found out that they were charging local hospitals an exorbitant amount for blood. That is why local hospitals approached Unyts which had been an organ donor organization to start collecting blood for them. So all the blood collected by Unyts goes to local hospitals. The Red cross sends much if not all of what they collect to other areas so they can get a good price for the blood.

The interior is newly renovated, clean and neat. Don't be afraid to donate, it only takes about 30 minutes total of your time and all the blood remains local. They even notify you when your blood is used. It's a good feeling to know you might just have saved a life!

My wife had a heart attack and was taken to ECMC. There, she was stabilized and transferred to…read moreGates. From the time of her arrival to the day she was discharged her care was incredible. All of the medical staff was professional, informed and caring. They went out of their way to make sure she was informed of what was going done and what was being done, all of which was explained in plain English. The nurses were hard working and in most cases the most professional we have ever encountered. (One had a bad attitude and only appeared in the room once). Response times to the nurse call button was very, very fast even in the busiest times. The longest wait during the entire stay was about 5 minutes and was accompanied with profuse apologies when the nurse arrived. Emergency room staff was caring and very easy to speak with. All of her and my questions were answered, again, in plain English. As the test were being done, we received regular updates about time frames and results when they were available. Transportation staff in all areas of the hospital were caring and very professional. Without exception, they were personable and very easy to speak with. The rooms were exceptionally clean and kept well stocked with items that staff and my wife needed. Bathrooms were also clean and there was an ample supply of soaps, wash cloths and towels. The only down side to the entire stay was the food which must be explained came from the Buffalo General Hospital kitchens. For the first 2 days, the food was visually appealing and very tasty. After that, the quality and quantity degraded incredibly and the requested menu items were usually missing and replaced with other items that her previously prescribed low salt and post heart attack special diet mandated. Menus never seemed to match availability. There also seemed to be a cross contamination issue as the fruit plates provided with her cottage cheese always (3 instances) smelled and actually tasted like fish. At one point, she was feeling very weak. From experience, we knew salt was so low that it was below the mandated Ievels. I had to bring in outside foods to help. That was nothing that a bag of Fritos couldn't fix. Visitor food options are well met by the facility cafeteria and several individual providers. In closing, this medical facility is as good as it gets. The care is incredible but bring your own food.

Why would you allow,or clear,a patient for AN ELECTIVE SURGERY,when that patient had sepsis (Enterococcus faecalis),not responding whatsoever to treatment,her heart valve also had this growing on it (They were going to send her to Mercy Hospital, NEVER DID) and pneumonia. They first said she was too sick to go to the OR,then someone said they were going to take,then no again.This went on for about 5 or 6 changes.We asked time again what was going on ,and we're told,shes going into surgery.... Later that night coded.... Sent to ICU... Passed away at 8:03 a.m. the next day,but im thinking it was before that. Shouldn't the heart,which runs everything AND the bacteria be "fixed" or tended to first? Absolutely NO communication between staff,nobody could answer ANYTHING and when you did ask,you were really putting them out.

This was my first visit with him and will be my very last. Unfortunately, my regular doc has left the practice and through default I saw him. Not impressed at all. Not personable, went on and on regarding my bone density test, apparently assuming I knew what he was talking about. I told him I was having difficulty with my Fibromyalgia, and he quickly stated, "there is no treatment for that". Under diagnosis he treats, online, clearly lists Fibromyalgia a one he indeed treats, (Dr. Raja treated me for this and diagnosed it.) He quickly changed the subject to my RA and treatments available. I told him I had not made a commitment to those treatments at this time. And that was that. No physical exam, no words of encouragement, nothing. Come back in six months and you will be seeing the PA. When I got home under today's diagnosis, he had put down a diagnosis he never discussed with me, and I had never heard of. When I looked up Toxic Myopathy, that diagnosis refers to a patient who has muscle pain due to drinking too much alcohol? What??? Oh no, last straw, not going back.
