From the very first visit, every member of the team treated my mother with such kindness, dignity, and compassion. They never made her feel like just another patient--they made her feel truly special. Over the course of an eight-month journey, we were fortunate to be cared for by an incredible team, including Dr. Manoj Sadhnani, DPM, and nurses Kortney, Patricia, Jolly, Carla, Stephanie, and Mary. Every appointment was filled with warmth, encouragement, professionalism, and genuine concern for my mother's well-being. Wound care can be a long and challenging process, but this team celebrated every bit of progress with us. They always took the time to explain everything, answer our questions, and make my mom feel comfortable and cared for. By the end of her treatment, the celebration of her healing felt like a victory for all of us because they had been with us every step of the way. Their clinical expertise is exceptional, but what truly sets them apart is their compassion. They gave my mother not only excellent medical care but also hope, confidence, and so much kindness. Thank you, Dr. Sadhnani and the entire team, for making a difficult journey so much easier. We will always be grateful for the outstanding care you gave my mom and our family.

I'm sorry I was in so much pain that I don't recall names but to the woman at the desk who whisked me in to the E.R. staff I want to say thank you so very much! Now to the nurses on the 2nd floor G Wing I believe I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart. Sorry if I kept you busy changing 50 bags of fluid that kept my catheter flowing. You nurses are truly dedicated, hard working and go above and beyond. Special shout out to the ones whose names I can remember and those I don't . Amanda, Litzy, Brandon, Maria, Brianna and Tom the RN that was called in when I had an episode. You guys rock. Again thank you all that took care of me when I ended up at Mt. Sinai.

My mother went in for a hip replacement after a fall. She ended up catching EVERY infection a…read morehospital could offer. She was on a ventilator next morning. I didn't think she'd live. She did but with all those infections. In ICU. I had to wear full length berka thing even full over the head cover which I took off b/c my mom couldn't HEAR me thru that thing. They ended up giving her tube feeding which I thought would be reversed. Dr. said no, they don't live long after that!!! They even tried only giving her water-no nutrients which I caught them doing. They wanted her to die so they could get the bed back. I reported this via email to the so-called suits, that they were committing a crime! They all appeared at 10am-offered whatever help even the dietician. They started giving her nutrients & she, of course, rallied. A nasty young woman dr-last name Hoffman, threw my mother's papers on her bed. Said she had signed DNR paper. I had her taken off my mother's "care". She then came up to me, told me how she graduated so high in her class. So what? Didn't want her near my mom. When my mother was dying they wouldn't let me in-said shift was changing!! I sat in my car alone in the parking lot as the sun went down. When I was finally allowed in all her belongings were gone! I just wanted to go in & get them. While my mother was in this hospital & they kept changing her room they NEVER moved her belongings. I did. If you are alone, no advocate, kiss your belongings, your life a quicker goodbye! After the fact, when I went to get her things they were nowhere to be found. Security said that never should have happened-I should have been let in shift change or not. Security was the only decent treatment I rec'd during my mom's time there. STAY AWAY! Other hospitals in this area. Do not go here. They should have "Abandon hope all ye who enter here" above their entry door. IMO just an extention of HELL.

NO, YOU DONT FOLKS, SO ENTER THE PARKING LOT WITH YOUR VEHICLE AND POLITELY TELL THE ATTENDANT "NO THANKS" ON THE VALET. YOU CAN STILL PULL IN AND LOOK FOR SPOT YOURSELF, THIS IS BECAUSE THERE IS NO ACTUAL SIGN INDICATING VALET NOR AMOUNT OF MONEY TO PAY IN THE VISTORS PARKING LOT. JUST 2 BOYS ASKING "IF?" YOU WANT YOUR CAR VALET. I PULLED IN AND DROVE AROUND. I EVEN SAT IN MY CAR AND WAITED FOR A SPOT TO OPEN UP, THEN PULLED IN. I am not making any false statements here. I was there today, and i did see $8 valet parking directly in front of the hospital, but not at the visitors' parking lot. There is nothing more iratating when one comes to a hospital and wants to park in a vistors parking lot, and there are no other options to park elsewhere or nearby. There actually is one other option for parking. **Drive to New York Avenue, follow the street parking signs and park for 2 hours, then walk 7 mins back to the hospital, and see your loved one.

Brenda, I doubt you'll ever see this review, but you truly made the experience special. You were informative, welcoming, and made sure everyone understood exactly what to expect and where to go when the big day arrives. My partner and I were actually the only people on the tour who already had children, while everyone else were first-time moms and dads. It turned into such a nice experience because some of the other parents even came to us with questions or for advice whenever Brenda stepped away for a moment. It created a very supportive atmosphere. During the tour, we got to see the labor and delivery area, as well as the postpartum rooms. We also happened to see a new mom walking through the hallway with her newborn, which was such a sweet and special moment. Another nice touch was seeing the statistics for how many baby boys, baby girls, and twins had been delivered there this year. The tour was extremely informative and really helped ease any confusion about where to go and what to expect on delivery day. The hospital renovations also look great everything feels updated and well maintained.

Hire more doctors or close the shit down because there is absolutely NO reason someone should have to wait 5 HOURS just to be seen, only to be told it could be ANOTHER 4-5 HOURS before seeing a doctor. An 10 hour wait in an EMERGENCY ROOM?! What exactly is the emergency at that point?? For one of the biggest hospitals on Long Island, this is absolutely ridiculous and embarrassing. People come to the ER because they need medical attention, not because they want to spend their entire day sitting in a waiting room hoping somebody eventually gets to them. Absolutely ridiculous. Biggest hospital on Long Island and somehow the WORST. Do better!!

My mother was admitted through Mercy Hospital's ER due to psychotic issues. After overnight…read moreevaluation, she was fully admitted for treatment and was assigned to Psychiatrist, Dr. J. Chorowoski. Dr. J. Chorowski is by far, one of the best psychiatrist I have encountered. He clearly analyzed my moms age, past & present medical history, included the family's input throughout, established a workable treatment plan suitable for the patient, and clearly communicated all treatment plans from admission to discharge. He truly went above and beyond the standard expectations. Even after discharge, worked to ensure discharged patient was set up with medications and outpatient needs. There has been a tremendous improvement of my mothers mental heath under Dr. Chorowski's care and she is better on track to returning to the functioning mother who lives with mental health issues. I am so pleased with the services rendered and specifically with Dr. Chorowski. Thank you so much.

Our experience at this hospital has been extremely disappointing. My uncle was admitted to the ICU,…read moreand by day three, the neurologist told us that he would remain in a coma for the rest of his life and was essentially brain dead. Despite this prognosis, our family continued to advocate for additional testing and treatment options. By the second week, we noticed that he was opening his eyes and attempting to respond. We informed the nursing staff, but they seemed unaware of these changes. When we later showed the doctor, he stated that it was the first time he had seen such improvement. We explained that these responses had been occurring for two days and had already been reported to the nurse, yet there was no documentation in his chart. In the third week, my uncle became fully awake. Unfortunately, our concerns about his care continued. There were instances where he remained soiled for extended periods without being cleaned, and when we brought this to the attention of the nursing staff, some responded rudely and dismissively, stating they had more important tasks to handle. We understand that healthcare workers are often busy and under significant pressure, but our family felt that critical changes in my uncle's condition were overlooked and that his basic care needs were not consistently met. Based on our experience, we were deeply dissatisfied with the quality of care and communication provided during his hospitalization.

You are supposed to feel reassured and safe at a hospital, but in this one, I and my ailing mother felt anything but that. For two years, my mother went there with severe stomach pain without any explanation for the pain. They proved incompetent as they flat out refused to carry out test to determine the cause of her pain. I watched my mother struggle with this pain, and it wasn't until a month before her death from stage 4 stomach cancer did they agree to do a test.

Whatever happened deserves its own documentary because this place is now giving portal to purgatory. My husband and I came in on a Wednesday because of a foot injury. All he needed was an X ray and someone to look at it. We spent FIVE HOURS there, and the only medical treatment he received was having his vitals taken. They brought us to the back to wait for a doctor and then seemingly deleted us from the system. Three different nurses came over at different times, asked for his name, called him by the wrong name, and then asked, "Why are you still here? We haven't seen you?" FUN FACT... I'm wondering the same thing. WHY ARE WE STILL HERE?! After about three hours of this fever dream, they moved us to the "FastTrack" area, which I can only assume was named as a joke. We then sat there for another TWO HOURS while everyone collectively forgot we existed. Again. Meanwhile, two nurses were openly talking about how badly they wanted to go home. At that point we looked at each other and said, "You know what? We don't want to be here either, girl," and walked out. Now here's where it somehow gets even better. TWO HOURS AFTER WE LEFT, they called us to ask if we were still there. I'm sorry... what? At that point I wasn't sure whether to laugh or congratulate everyone involved on creating the most immersive escape room experience in New York. Honestly, you're probably better off going to CityMD, MedRite, or asking the guy at your local bodega for a second opinion. At least someone will acknowledge your existence. I'm genuinely convinced this place is run by NYU's psychology department as a social experiment to see how much absurdity people will tolerate before they completely lose it. I wish I were kidding.
