    First time at the new valley hospital and I was extremely impressed once inside. The navigating…read moretheir campus outside is a bit confusing as parking and signage are not very helpful. I recommend using their valet as it saves you ample time. Once inside the staff were extremely helpful telling me exactly where I needed to go and which elevators and turns to make. Visiting my grandmother was easy and extremely pleasant. The new rooms are laid out extremely well as they have bathrooms, ample chairs, and a bench that turns into a bed for overnight guests as well.

    I am addressing a situation last fall and winter. October thru December where my Husband, a…read morepatient of Dr. Kevin Wood, Oncology was told he must go to the hospital immediately for a procedure called a JP drain to remove fluid from his abdominal cavity. My husband was admitted to the hospital after an ER visit and released after 10 days. He was readmitted in Nov for the same procedure and again, admitted in December. He did have some complications from a prior Gist Tumor surgery in 2018 that he had been under the care of Dr. Wood, for follow up since 2018. HOWEVER, Dr. Wood NEVER visisted or spoke to him in the hospital. The surgery team also did not follow up with my husband and they left him in the dark, not knowing what was wrong. His JP drain test results showed no cancer cells in the fluid. Dr. Wood, nor any other doctor, even the pathetic hospitalists, never spoke to my husband or myself about his condition or prognosis. They basically left him there to die. He caught Pneumonia while in Valley which ultimately took him down. I ended up transfering him out of Valley on my own dime. A biopsy at the other hospital proved he had metastasis in his lung and suspicion from the valley notes, probably in his abdomen. This was never discussed with us at Valley. Doctors dont talk to patients anymore? I wrote a letter to The new CEO Dr Robert Brenner, Dr Yallowitz the Chief Medical Director and Dr. Casper the Chief of Oncology. They responded to me and did meet with me twice to discuss my concerns. My concerns were mainly that patient Care at Valley is non existent. The surgical oncology team is terrible, especially Dr. Winkler, who should have made a referral, and Dr Wood was dissapointing. After treating my husband for 8 years, he could not even reach out by mail to express his condolences, never mind reaching out to his patient of 8 years to discuss that he was failing and probably dying, which he did the end of December. Valley Hospital is a hugh dissappoinment. The Chiefs of staff admitted to me that these Doctors did not know how to help my husband most likely, then why did they not refer him to someone who might have been able to?? Instead they let him lay in the hospital and get pneumonia. He was not important to them. Their hospitalists are useless and uninformed. Especially Dr Daveed and Dr Angiolino, The system of medicine in this day and age of "Hospitals are businesses" leave the patient to be the least important pieece of the puzzle. Its pathetic and sad. I lost my husband, my children lost their father. Dr Wood just lost a patient, he'll get another one. I would not recomend Valley, especially Oncology. Hind sight is 20/20. I feel like a fool. There are so many other problems at Valley in the ER and with Nursing, My husband Fell as Nurse JOLANDA allowed that to happen on her watch and he had 6 Staples to his head!!! She couldnt get to him in time and did not call me till 4 hours after it happened. Shame on her!!!! Shame on Valley. This hospital has gone downhill!!! Please, if you have a bad experience, write a letter (email) to the CEO and the Chiefs of staff. Patient advocacy can help you. Demand a meeting in person as I did.. express your concerns and demand they listen and hear you. This is the only way they MIGHT understand. Take the time to speak with them in person!
