THIS REVIEW ONLY APPLIES TO McLEAN VILLAGE'S MOTHER"S DAY LUNCHEON…read more Four days ago, I ordered salmon for dinner at one of the most iconic restaurants in New England- Ken's Steakhouse on Route 9 in Framingham, MA. Today I ordered salmon at a mother's day luncheon at a nursing home in Simsbury. Guess which salmon was a zillion times better than the other? The salmon at McLean's knocked the Ken's salmon out of the park. It was moist and tender. Ken's was overcooked to the point of dried out brittleness. I think it's very nice that McLean's can provide a high quality lunch for relatives of it's clients on special days such as Mothers Day. It cost just $14 and included Chardonnay or sparkling grape juice, a choice of salmon or chicken florentine with a mix and match choice of rice, stuffed baked potato, carrots and asparagus. Oh, and strawberry cheesecake and coffee.. Hats off to the food service folks and servers at McLean's who proved to me that eating institutionalized food doesn't have to be a terrible experience. They did a real nice job of providing lunch for about 75 people and made Mother's Day a little bit nicer for their clients and their families.

Beginning in the 1971 and taking on the cherished philanthropist's name McLean started as fleet ship of high quality edler-care and still tops the charts to this day. The staff throughout the ranks are impeccable, caring, willing to accommodate, communicate, and open to reasonable suggestions from family members. Speaking of family, each and every family member is welcomed and allowed to participate in many of the facilities activities, which is very up-lifting for all residents especially your own loved ones. I could go on & on, but please trust McLean is a one of kind and their master plan continues upgrade and to expand to provide even greater care for our growing and aging community.

It's a rare dentist that has technicians who are genuine experts and are acknowledged and valued as such. Even the cleaning staff is recognized and valued. Sophia Beason-Brown is a gem.

Luckily a technician caught it when I was sitting in the chair about to get anesthesia. I could have aspirated during anesthesia and choked. Also problems with the billing person, Mae. She wasn't responding to the insurance company request for additional information to process the claim. Also, the doctor wrote in my chart that I had 52 minutes of anesthesia when I didn't! They billed insurance for it. Even though they made me pay for it up front. When I told Mae I didn't have anesthesia she didn't believe me and wasn't going to give me the refund I was told I would get since I didn't have it. All around a very negative experience.

Surgical procedures available range from: Ophthalmology (including mine), Podiatry (including mine), Ear/Nose/Throat (ENT) and Gastroenterology. My wife previously had two procedures here and today mine was performed without any hick-ups. The wait, short. The pre-op prep a breeze, short, not rushed, and very comforting. The surgery, from what I can remember, top notch without a worry in the world. Recovery, super easy, like nothing happened, graham crackers devoured and ginger ale guzzled. Depending on your procedure you can be in and out in 2-4 hours; mine roughly a 3 hour tour. Make sure your Chauffeur delivers and picks-up. Also, do not hesitate asking for an official prescription for your favorite sweet; I hit the jack pot ICE CREAM!

Do not be surprised when you arrive and the door to the facility says they're open at 7am because it's a lie. They start getting in right at 6 and let you into the comfortable waiting room. The woman at the front desk was super sweet to me and others, including a bit of a Karen, with whom she dealt with kindly and swiftly. Once I got behind the surgical doors it was like a surgery factory in the best way. Immediately I had a couple of people tending to me in terms of getting me info, giving me info, giving me anesthesia (with great explanations of everything they were going to do to me). I then spotted my orthopedic surgeon, who also gave me great expectations on what to expect. Next thing you know it's 11am, I'm awake back in the same recovery space and feeling good with some saltines and ginger ale. I was swiftly wheelchaired to my wife, waiting with the car at the front door of the facility. Easy peasy. The facility called me the following day to check up on me and remind me of my Dr.'s orders. My doc is not into prescribing hard hitting, addictive opiates so I left with only an RX for strong ibuprofren. The facility reminded me when they called that I can also take Tylenol in between ibuprofren doses, if I needed. I have to have surgery on my other foot either later this year or next and I will definitely use the same Surgeon (Dr. Rode of WH Podiatry) and Bloomfield Ambulatory Surgery Center. Top notch.
