The staff is outstanding and caring including doctors, techs and support staff. You don't get a bunch of students working on you like other area hospitals. We have never had to wait long for examination. The hospital is clean and waiting areas comfortable. Parking is easy. The one thing I don't like is their mobile check-in system. In fact, I think it is the worst check in system in the country. I resent having to upload personal information through a 3rd party web site. I despise not being able to adjust the contract that they force you to sign before treatment. I only took off one star, but I would rate the mobile check in a zero star.

I came to the hospital for an appointment with Dr. Foster at the gastroenterology office in…read morebuilding four of the hospital. At first, I had a hard time finding the office and went to the wrong building. A staff member was kind enough to direct me to the correct building. When I arrived at the gastroenterology office, I went to the check in window and Allison greeted me with a smile. She took my information and told me to wait until my name was called. I did not wait even five minutes before Jasmine called my name and took me in the back. Jasmine was very professional and kind and took my blood pressure and weight information. She asked me the triage questions and then told me to wait for Dr. Foster. Dr. Richard Foster came in and introduced himself to me. He was very professional and answered all of my questions. He explained the situation with my diverticulosis and what impact it has on my colon. He went over all the details regarding my colonoscopy and what the procedure will consist of that day. He was excellent in his explanation and very concise. The whole staff were very professional and helpful in making my appointment worthwhile and productive. I felt very comfortable with Dr. Foster handling my colonoscopy and explaining everything to me. This was very worthwhile and I'm happy to have Dr. Foster as my gastrenologist. It was a good visit.

Where do they get these people that work in Breast Centers??? Everyone needs to model their hiring…read moreprocess or something, because yet again, I am in such awe of my level of care today. I needed a biopsy on a lymph node quickly, and this location was able to get me in quickest, before the holidays. I arrived early, for my 8:30 a.m. appointment. Check in, with a very nice woman, was prompt. I was called back about 15 minutes later. I am so extremely thankful that my nurse was a wonderful gal named Cassie. She is absolutely excellent and her "bedside manner" rocks. Once I was changed into my gown for my procedure and she could see how heavily tattooed I am, she began telling me about how she'd had a scare similar to mine, and it ended up being tattoo ink in her lymph node. We appear to be fairly close in age, and both have tattoos from 15-20 years ago. She definitely helped put me at ease and remained upbeat, yet extremely caring thru the entire procedure. My doctors name was Matthew. He was a really nice guy. As we were getting started, I let him know that I have severe anxiety and what it looks like when I am about to have a panic attack and what I do to work thru it. He let me know how familiar he is with anxiety and reassured me that they would help me get thru it. Sure enough, my anxiety began to get the best of me. Cassie picked up on it quickly and began gently talking me thru what to do. No one has ever told me when this happens to me that I shouldn't close my eyes. I often pass out with my panic attacks. She kept gently encouraging me to keep my eyes opened and focused on any one thing and helped guide my breathing. I was pouring sweat, so she had the other nurse in the room get me a cold rag and had her help refresh it to keep it cold, for my forehead. Everyone was so great with me and so respectful of my boundaries and had true "caregiver" attitudes towards me. Someone in healthcare, PLEASE hear me! This is how you treat patients. Especially patients with trauma histories. Would you believe they discovered tattoo ink in my lymph node? Yup! Nurse Cassie called it. My sample was sent off for testing and then I was given another mammogram. Cassie did my mammogram and then took me to have my vitals checked. Once my blood pressure went back to normal, I was allowed to get dressed and go about my way. Stellar care. I absolutely could not ask for better or find a single item to critique.

The PA wanted to do a direct admit and told her to go through the ER to be admitted. The ER Dr refused to admit her, treated her like a drug addict, and sent her home. This morning, she called her pcp back because her symptoms were getting worse. The pcp still wanted her to be admitted,and sent her to another hospital,where she was admitted. We used to really like Riverview. We would drive an hour, and pass many hospitals, just to receive care at Riverview. That won't happen again.

I sent this as a review when they sent me a visit evaluation:…read more On March 12 at approximately 2:33 PM I attended a scheduled appointment at Prairie Lakes Medical Clinic with Dr. Jeni Shull-Clayton. As I was leaving the waiting room to be weighed, a staff member identified as Mary approached me in an aggressive and patronizing manner regarding my service dog. My service dog is a highly trained 10-year-old German Shepherd who assists with my disability. Under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), medical staff are permitted to ask only two specific questions regarding a service animal: whether the dog is required because of a disability and what task the dog has been trained to perform. Instead of following these guidelines, I was confronted in a way that dismissed my legal rights as a patient with a disability. There were additional concerns during this visit. The front desk was unable to print intake paperwork from the new Prairie Lakes / Riverview Health system, leaving me unable to review documents I was expected to sign. While the medical assistant and office manager were professional and respectful, the overall handling of the situation was troubling. Dr. Jeni Shull-Clayton appeared unprepared to address the situation and was unable to meaningfully discuss my concerns or the role my service dog plays as part of my care support. My service dog was not acknowledged as part of my care needs. Most concerning, I ultimately received no medical evaluation, treatment, or care during this appointment. Because no services were provided, neither Medicaid nor I should be billed for this visit. Patients should feel safe, respected, and heard in a medical setting. Unfortunately, I left this appointment feeling distressed, unsafe, and disappointed. I hope Prairie Lakes Medical Clinic and Riverview Health ensure that staff are properly trained regarding ADA service animal law and patient rights so that other patients do not experience similar poor treatment. I am unclear if I nor my adult kids, desire to return here any longer. As this is not the first dismissive treatment we have experienced. I am open to hearing about other referenced Indy area OD or MD medical offices for proper, valuably helpful, safe experiences, human centered, compassionate, & holistic, professional care. cindi jo "CeeJayy" rose gonzales

They do it so badly that during the COVID-19 pandemic the governor of Indiana activated the National Guard to staff the place. I am disabled and had the misfortune to be taken here for a cardiac event. I was placed on a bed in the hall, never put in a room and never even given a blanket while I lay there unattended and shivering. No one told me anything about what tests would be run until someone showed up to do an X-ray, EKG or draw blood. No one told me how to access my records at any point in time, so I had to look up online how to do that. The doctor spent maybe 3 minutes total with me and didn't even have the decency to stop and look me in the eye after saying I was being discharged. He wouldn't even answer any questions I had. I was given no follow-up instructions or any aftercare advice. Most hospital emergency rooms will ask if you are having thoughts of hurting yourself, someone else, or being abused. They didn't even do that! I wrote in my journal that as a person with PTSD I am accustomed to my physical symptoms being dismissed and that's one thing, but it was another thing entirely for St. V's to treat me as if they knew I might have a physical problem and did not give a damn whether it killed me. The scary thing is I've seen worse, including turning the bill for a rape kit over to collections, and a nurse in their ER having to nag the neurosurgery unit to give her 19-year-old uninsured son his pain medication while he was recovering from surgery for an aneurysm--getting called a "bitch" for her efforts. Avoid this place at all costs. This place is the epitome of everything wrong with healthcare in Indiana, if not the United States.
