    Dr. Kretov is an amazing professional. He worked with my father for many years. I am always amazed…read moreby his patience, experience. He is the best doctor you can hope for. At his internal medicine practice you will be welcomed by caring multilingual personnel. Dr. Kretov is a great family man and he has an outstanding reputation in the community.

    I have visited Kretov's clinic 2 times, on the first day they had a really nice receptionist Polina…read more, she is really good and polite worker ,she is so patient and nice to customers , but on the 2nd time when I visited this clinic the receptionist whose name is Valentina was sooo rude to me , when I called she spoke as if I was asking for something out of her job and duties ,she was like - What do you need?! Yes,No! I was really shocked , she is totally uncultured and boorish worker!!! I absolutely didn't expect that , more over when I visited them she was still so rude and the Doctor didn't say anything her, and I realized that it was OK to him, and I didn't tell anything and now I'm just leaving a review. As for the doctor, he is not attentive with a patients , cause he missed some vaccinations , and I had to wait for a month to get the rest, cause I could not have another necessary vaccinations until 4 weeks left , if you are getting several vaccinations at the same time it's ok but if you already had one you have to wait for 4 weeks to get another one. So I lost a whole month because of the doctor's inattention . It means that I had to wait one more month to get my documents . It says about their unprofessionalism ! I'm disappointed about the service.

    Dr Shifrin is an excellent surgeon! Very skilled, knowledgeable, friendly and thorough. His staff…read moreand those who I came in contact with at the JSMC is fantastic. I was guided every step of the way and made to feel very comfortable. Everyone was very patient with me and kept answering my questions until I understood what was going to happen. Everything explained was exactly what happened. Very minimal scarring - If you ever need thyroid surgery, Dr. Shifrin is the surgeon you want to do it!

    I can't say enough great things about Dr. Shifrin and his entire staff. I had a large nodule that…read morewas pushing up against my windpipe and making it difficult to swallow. After my needle biopsy showed a positive reading naturally I was very nervous. I got in to see Dr. Shifrin within a week of the biopsy results to come up with a game plan. I'm on blood thinners so it makes for a complicated case. He did another ultrasound on it to confirm the size and he thought its in my best interest to remove the whole thing instead of half bc if the surgical biopsy came back positive then I would have to go back in and remove the other side. With me being on blood thinners for life it would be dangerous to stop again so that's what we did. Leading up to the day of surgery I kept in contact with Amy C who coordinated all my visits and paperwork. She was awesome! She took all my nervous calls and calmed me down every time. Post surgery I was swelling up pretty good so I reached out to Amy who then connected my with Tara the PA. She got right back to me in between their scheduled surgeries and saw me to look at the swelling. She and Dr. Shifrin both met up with me and did another ultrasound to make sure there was no fluid build up in my neck. After they saw me they went back to their next scheduled surgery. Tara followed up with me for the next couple of days to see how I was doing. The pathology report came in within a week and it was positive for papillary cancer. Tara called me again to go over it and was very compassionate and calmed me down. I just had my 2 week follow up with both Dr. Shifrin and PA Tara Corrigan and they were pleased to tell me that all the cancer was removed and I'm free of it now. My family and I thank everyone there for walking with us through this tough scary journey. If you're shopping around for a thyroid surgeon and happened on this review please take my word and come see them. You wont regret it!

    Ive never heard anything "bad" about this hospital, only good things. My entire life I've know this…read moreto be a great hospital since one of my friends mom works here and was promoted and she told me they are great and workers. I went here MANY times to see his mom and also had came to see people. It wasn't until it personally effected me until my father recently was told me has AFIB and his heart is a bit weak and needs a procedure to check his heart and see if there's anything that needs to be done. Ended up he had an 80% blockage on one of his left heart artery and needed a stent. I know people who have 4-6, he just needed one thank god but they were AMAZING. The cardiologist explained everything simply and what he would be doing and he promised he would come afterwards to talk to us. Doctors get busy so I wasn't really betting on that I figured we would just get the information from the nurses and 20 mins tops after his procedure he came in, he waited until my dad was fully awake to hear what he did. Everything went great and he had a follow up that went well and now we are going back actually today for his other issue he's been having. The heart came out of no where he's never had any issues, but lucky the doctor and all the other doctors, the nurses, ALL the staff, I did like how they had security since it's not far from some bad areas, even checking in was fun and we were laughing with the woman. I wished I remembered her name! Even though it's early I'm not dreading going back today, though today we are going to the Mary V. Black building, so it's a completely different building but I'm sure it will be..atleast I hope...will be just as great. Also, it was very very clean. I was truly impressed, so was my mom when she went there and she's an RN as well in PA and she was really impressed with the nurses and how clean it was! I know this is long but if you are ever in the area and need medical assistance, this is where I would go and recommend!!

    On Approximately Jan 28 2026, my husband was admitted to this hospital with a red tongue. He had…read morebeen fighting & winning his battle with prostate cancer for 7 years & this hospital does a new treatment called Histotripsy for cancers metastasized into the liver. So long story short, he spent 2 weeks in this hospital and they gave a sepsis did Not properly diagnose it and admitted they were giving him the wrong antibiotic then killed him. Plus as it was spreading the nurses kept saying it was not (see pics) so I had to make noise and immediately the doctors all came in & sent him to intensive care this was his 71st birthday. The next day the in charge nurses from the oncology floor he was on, came to intensive care in tears apologizing. Once they figured out it the correct bacteria they starting treating him on Feb 12 & he was improving, watching Nascar Friday Feb 13 & looking forward to the 500 on Sunday but they insisted on a DNR and a port in his neck. They then overloaded him & gave him a heart attack. Which killed him. I was running to take a shower & they called & said he had a heart attack so I asked to reverse the DNR - They said they had gotten a pulse but broke his ribs so they gave him morphine & killed him again. They even brought in an allergist who said the red tongue was an allergic reaction when it was Not!!!! Odd thing is I tried to get a lawyer so his death would not go unnoticed records but the lawyers say he was old . 2 weeks before this he was going to PT 3 times a week for his back & looking forward to riding his motorcycle once the weather got warmer. We had gone to Florida in December. So not the youngest person but definitely not Old. Now that very unfortunately Kyle Busch died over 10 days from the sepsis (as my husband did) maybe some attention will come to the poor diagnosis of sepsis. So the only way I can warn people is to start posting it with pictures (on the top part of the page) . I hope this saves someone's life. Miss you every day my dear husband. He was my life and they took him!!!!
