Maureen (who did my mammogram) made me feel comfortable, or as comfortable as possible when getting your breasts smashed like pancakes in awkward positions). Jean took me back and showed me the pictures, explained everything we saw and made sure I understood. Fabulous ladies - all of them. I had surgery w/ Dr. Kristen Smith and she was awesome! The women at the hospital where I went for the surgery (melrose Wakefield?) also did a great job of getting me in and out, talking to me the whole time and making conversation. Very funny ladies - made the experience not scary at all. It's rare when I can say I had good experience with breast cancer - but, well, somehow these ladies made it possible. I always left feeling hopeful, or relived. Not to sound sexist, but a bunch of men couldn't pull off the experience I get at the Comprehensive Breast Cancer Center. yay for women!

This place is just so sketchy. Scope Medical does Independent Medical Exams which means that if…read moreyou're going here, chances are it's because you were injured on the job and your place of business is sending you to see a "independent medical examiner" aka someone who will give a 2nd opinion but who is on their side. In short, visits are usually mandatory. The doctor that I saw was fine. It was an in-and-out deal consisting mainly of him reviewing files I've collected and doing a brief medical exam. He was matter-of-fact and told me I'd hear from my place of business regarding the continuation of benefits. Whatever. But the business itself does not make one feel at ease. 1st of all, 3 series of staircases to get to the offices? I mean...you're injured on the job. Most probably with a back injury. So they make you walk up stairs? I mean, sure there is a sign that says if you require assistance to call a number. But I'd like to see what happens. I mean, do 2 burly guys emerge and proceed to carry you up the stairs? Secondly, the decor. Pink painted walls and faded, frayed green carpet. Not the mention the sink in the waiting room with dishes piled up. SO unprofessional. And...I'm still trying to decide what to do with this...the receptionists in the other room were SO loud I could hear them laughing, ridiculing, and discussing the specifics of other patient's cases. Incredibly inappropriate. And against the law. Other than that, it is what it is. Like I said, neutral experience with the MD, but the receptionists and the *appearance* of this place kinda screams shadey medical practice. Try not to let it get to you and be sure to gather some docs to be on your own side.

At the front desk, I specifically asked how much I would need to pay for a first time consultation and was told it was free by the woman at the front desk. When I saw Dr. Wang, I was assured a second time that it was a free first consultation that lasted about 20 minutes. There was no physical examination--Dr. Wang only filled out a few forms and asked me a few questions. A month later I got a bill for almost $500 for this "free consultation". My insurance covered about $100, but I was told I had to pay $313 for this. I called Hallmark Health, and they told me to call my insurance. Yet, after calling my insurance, they told me to call Hallmark Health. I had to call Hallmark Health at least 2 times before getting an answer as to what the bill was for, since they had told me it was free. I was very upset yesterday when speaking to the manager, Colleen, who told me that Hallmark could pay half if I was willing to pay half. Of course I was not willing, as I explained that both the doctor and front desk had told me it was a free consultation. At this point, she got very snippy with me and told me to call insurance again. This place has the WORST customer service, and I will not be coming back.

I had a very concerning experience at Winchester Hospital when I brought my mother in with…read moreextremely high blood pressure (202/87). Upon arrival, they performed an EKG, X-rays, and blood work--but then left her sitting in the waiting room for over 8 hours without treatment or monitoring. Given her condition, this was alarming and felt unsafe. When we were finally brought to a room, we were seen by a nurse practitioner who, while polite, informed us we would not be seeing a physician as he had 12 years experience. After additional blood work, he returned and said she would be discharged if she could walk. A staff member walked her for approximately 10 seconds and cleared her. I specifically asked why she was being discharged with blood pressure still over 200, and was told she was "fine" and that her primary care doctor would need to manage it. This response was both dismissive and deeply concerning given the potential severity of hypertensive crisis. The lack of urgency, minimal evaluation before discharge, and dismissal of a dangerously high blood pressure reading left us feeling frustrated and worried for her safety. I would not expect this level of care--or lack thereof--from a hospital in a serious situation.

I could not have asked for a better experience with them all. However, EVERY SINGLE DOCTOR was awful. They could not maintain basic conversation or understand basic concepts. I had to project manage my mother's care. My mother hit her head from a seizure (as she has diagnosed epilepsy) and had a bruise on her forehead. The doctor asked how she got the bruise. We said from the seizure and he said "seizures do not cause bruising", absolutely unable to understand a concept that someone may hit their head while convulsing. Every doctor was as arrogant and condescending, with no medical knowledge to back it up. One doctor was trying to convince me she was not having seizures, but "sun downing" despite her convulsions and 20+ year epilepsy records. How any of them passed medical school is beyond me.
