I agree with Lisa from Camp Hill about Dr. Sams being an idiot. He is in no way a professional capable of treating patients. Had it not been for a resident's advocate, Dr. Sams would have had a patient death on his hands because he did not treat a patient properly according to tests given the patient. When confronted with documented evidence from Holy Spirit Hospital, he lied to me and made up a childish reason for his short comings. There easily could have been three different malpractice cases within a week based on Dr. Sams' performance from three different patients. All of a serious nature. When confronting the administration, they naturally supported the doctor and his nurse even lied. That is what this individual observed firsthand. And I might say "... a firsthand experience is an indispensable way of learning." You will be happy to learn that Dr. Sams is no longer at Messiah.
Now for Messiah in general for the Nursing Home aspect, I have never seen such friendly, capable personnel on all the floors as well as the business offices, etc. A family member is there and has been for a couple of years and the treatment given is definitely a 5 star + rating.
We kept our own private doctor after seeing what a fiasco Dr. Sams was. Too bad one apple can spoil the whole cart.
