    As a clinician, I have made many referrals to this clinic, and I think they offer a useful service to the public.

    Duke Specialty Rehab Services Midtown features some of the worst customer service and most…read morebelligerent staff, from front desk, to therapists, and management I've ever seen or experienced. Every visit to this office has been a battle and uphill climb. Front desk staff badger and harass clients and are offensively aggressive and unfriendly about social distancing enforcement. If you are even one minute late you are usually turned away and laughed at and made fun of behind your back by the front desk staff (I watched firsthand and listened to their commentary as someone was turned away after pleading their case with an impassive complement of front desk staff). Therapists make faces, roll their eyes, and sigh when dealing with patients that may have medical issues or need more time. I have seen therapists be downright rude, berating and yelling at clients and family members, taking their personal issues and grievances out on those in their care. The general climate and reception one receives at this office is one of apathy and disdain. When further input or follow up is requested from management about issues with therapists or front desk staff, there is no phone call or response. No action is taken to find out what the issues are and/or make things better. Yes, we are in the midst of a pandemic but there is no need to be rude, unhappy, and unpleasant because of it across all levels of staff. If front desk, therapy, and management dislike their areas of practice to this extent, perhaps they would best be served by considering a radical career change. It's unnecessary to make an already trying time that much worse. For the office's management and beyond that for Duke to not even acknowledge, communicate about, or address problems at this location seems unconscionable. If I had a choice, not only would I not receive care at any other Duke-affiliated provider but I would research and carefully consider other locations and their reviews for physical, occupational, and speech therapy. Having to go though difficulty because of a health event and needing therapy is bad enough without having to contend with unfriendly staff with what seems like embedded ill will. The quality of care suffers when caregivers harbor and promote a negative environment. It makes it that much more difficult to trust providers and feel safe. It makes a time when you are vulnerable worse and is a counterproductive stumbling block to healing and recovery. I can't recommend more strongly that you seek your care and a better patient experience elsewhere. Unfortunately--in spite of the Duke name and unless you are a "good" patient with minimal therapy needs that arrives half an hour to an hour before your appointment and follows social distancing guidelines perfectly in spite of any cognitive or other deficits you are experiencing due to your injury/health event--you will not find it here.

    I've done therapy in several locations and I've honestly never been this happy before. Rob Wiese is…read morelife changing. He believes in your potential, cares about you as an individual, challenges you, and will definitely strengthen your weaknesses. I HIGHLY recommend, as does my mom. (Seriously, don't go anywhere else. This place is worth your money).

I will rate the hospital on New Bern Avenue as sufficiently disorganized as to justify concern for anyone considering using it, or especially in the case of taking someone you care for, there. While there from March 25-27, 2026, for an infection in my right foot, I was scolded by a female Muslim doctor in front of 4-5 female medical students of some kind, a male "almost doctor" (still in the pipeline) and a very patient and professional, male EMT fella. The doctors in this hospital should be required to wear "bodycams" and if this Muslim female doctor had, she would have been fired that day. I am an honorably retired (20+ years) former US Army Paratrooper, Special Forces (SFQC 3-83) and Delta Force (OTC-18) combat veteran Operator / Sniper, with a service-connected disability rating of 100 percent (P+T) for a kidney transplant. During my Army career and in every other instance requiring medical services, I have never encountered the general lack of organization and focus on priorities that are at best of little importance to the health and welfare of any American patient, as I did at / in Wake Med. You should truly be ashamed of yourselves. Simply awful. And I'm using restraint, 1SG(R) John H. Osborn II 609 North Ellis Avenue Dunn, NC 28334 910-308-3030

    My family and I have been especially pleased with the services provided by Raleigh Rehabilitation…read more In 2021, I moved my aunt to this facility after an extended stay in the hospital. The staff couldn't have been more helpful, competent and welcoming. We were especially impressed with the facility director, Ms. Jacqueline Mitchell, and the admissions director, Will Rogers. They both made the transition to a nursing home residence for my aunt very seamless and were instrumental in explaining the process to me and my sister. Also, the nursing staff has been outstanding!! The director of nursing even came out to my car to assist the staff in removing my immobile aunt from the car. Everyone on staff is very friendly and helpful. We have seen a definite improvement in my aunt's health and disposition. Howard D.

This morning my mother was on the way to the center and when she got there my grandmother was unconscious, the staff did nothing and if my mother wasn't there things could have gone another way. My grandmother told the staff she could not breathe multiple times (she told us this when she came to at the hospital)and they did nothing!!! When mom said she's calling 911 and asked what happened they kept telling her no please ( they must get in trouble if someone else calls) and they finally called. My mother talked to her 45 mins prior to arriving and she was awake so this happened within a 45 minute span. She couldn't even get proper care for 24 hours without almost losing her life. DO NOT SEND YOUR LOVED ONES HERE!!!!!! Thank God my mom was there

I'm appreciative of the care - some areas a little dicey but all in all- this experience paved the way to my recovery - hopefully-The administration team including the Medical Director & House Physician learned valuable experiences for optimal outcomes

This meant Physical Therapy, learn how to go up a few stairs, transfer into car, recover enough to come home in a week or two. He never got more than 15 minutes of PT per day. PER DAY. The food was dreadful. The food was cold. When he asked for coffee or anything it never arrived at all OR it was stone cold. They told us he was eating well and doing great. He was barely eating anything as the food was so bad and stone cold. He asked to have help taking a shower multiple times, no one ever helped. He also asked to have his bed sheets changed, no one did so. He ended up back in the hospital as no one there would listen or help him or tell us the truth as to how he was doing. He called 911 to come and get him as he was maltreated, malnourished and not helped one iota. His days there extended his overall recovery. The staff had no clue what was going on. Run fast from this place - and don't look back. I would give this DUMP a zero if I could.
