2 Vascular surgery clinics in New York City

Without a doubt, the BEST hospital in NYC! Even the food was good. I was there for three days, and everyone was very nice, accommodating, polite, efficient, caring and professional. Even after I was released, the doctors called me at home to check on me, or called me straight back if I left a message. Really first rate treatment!

The ER room is a real joke. They have no system. They make you wait 5-6 hours before they even treat you. No one is taking charge. A true example of horrible medical attention. You’ll wait 8 hours to get a room if you need one. They discuss your medical condition in a waiting room next to everyone. It’s embarrassing. Never again to this place. Never. They should be shut for.

Horrible hospital, some of the older less funded hospitals really get a bad wrap compared to this place. It's supposed to be one of the best in the city but that's if you're in a particular tax bracket. The staff is just pure trash, unfeeling, uncaring...the list could go on. During the pandemic they were swept under an avalanche and rose to the occasion. This I will admit, but post pandemic we the patients are left to fend with burned out, inconsiderate service that needs an overhaul. I get it we're all suffering on both ends, but must patients suffer mistreatment and an absence of care coupled with life threatening illnesses when it isn't necessary?

I would like to say that I highly, highly recommend this facility. I appreciate this hospital and everything they are doing for my mother. First and foremost, let me say this: if you want the most utmost attentive care related to any type of cancer and your situation is not looking that great, please consider giving this place a chance; I *HIGHLY* recommend Memorial Sloan Kettering Center. They are experts and are well specialized when it comes to cancer itself. The staff at that hospital are the most informative, kindest and caring people my family and I have ever met, and they will fight tooth and nail to give you the best care possible. They will respond to your concerns asap and they make sure to quickly provide you with information and/or updates. They gave my mother absolute hope. My mother was being treated at Hackensack University Medical Center in NJ but they were quick to assume that we would have to prepare for the worst. I would never return to that hospital due to how they treated my mother, and for me as well when I needed surgery. Thanks to my sister's recommendation, we had her moved to this hospital. I really want to help anyone that is in the same situation that my family and I are in, thanks to Memorial Sloan Kettering Center, my mother is still with us. Thank you to every single person that works at this hospital, please realize how much of a difference you are making, words cannot express how grateful we are for this place.

No idea what these bad reviews are about because I have been treated with the best care I have ever had at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. Dr Alice Wei and Dr Judge are ROCKSTARS in the type of cancer I had. I am very proactive in my own care, so some of the issues mentioned appear to be from people, who did not properly advocate, for themselves or their loved ones. I was seen and diagnosed immediately and had surgery within a couple weeks. I was placed in a beautiful VIP suite and looked after 24-7 by a bevy of fun and kind nurses, PT people, and maintenance folks. Because I tested positive for Covid after surgery, I was there a week so had tons of great nurses and physical therapists except for one recovery room nurse named Camille — who lied about me not wanting any painkillers (I just didn't want any highly addictive ones!) — and Tara, the last nurse in my room, who tried to rush me out of the room by taking my clothes and throwing them on a chair while I was in the shower. Since coming home, I have had phone calls almost daily checking on my recovery and whenever I ask a question in the portal, it is answered instantly with either a phone call or email back. There are some changes I would make. First, there was an incident where Dr. Wei outright lied to me when I requested a routine scan that is usually done prior to surgery for the type of tumor I had. She inexplicably claimed that the scan was too expensive and that MSKCC did not do them. This was just odd since neither thing was true. That made me a bit nervous at first. However, she saved my life, so I feel so grateful that I found her. Secondly, people need more than 2 days in the hospital after surgery. I was in so much pain there is no way I could've gone home in 2 days, which I would've had to do if I had not had Covid. Also, the pain meds need to be timed with the physical therapy visits so that the patient can actually do the walks/exercises that are required. My PTs kept coming so late that my meds had worn off. Then, I couldn't do the walks. And finally, the drain bags need to be smaller. It makes no sense for patients to have to wear a 600ml drain bag if they are only outputting 20-40ml. Having a smaller bag would be much more convenient for patients, who have to wear a drain for a long time. That said, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center is the gold standard and I am so glad I chose to work with them. Like anything health-oriented, you need to do your homework and advocate for yourself. There is nothing scarier than cancer, NOTHING! So if you live in NYC, make sure you come here. Because it is the best.

The best hospital I have ever been. Everyone is helpful and make you feel that you are in good hands. The care they give is outstanding and they really go the extra mile for you. All the Nurses and Doctors really care. The nurses are all awesome and very friendly. I was there for almost two weeks and really appreciate the things they have done for me during this time. I wish every hospital was like that

Lorraine is the absolute best nurse who by the end of 2 weeks felt like family who truly cared for me and wanted me to get answers as much as I did. She is truly special. Susan, Nicole, and jasmine we're also amazing nurses always smiling I wish I could remember every single one but almost everyone I had was amazing, always smiling and was always asking how they could assist me. Every single member of the PT/OT team were like a family and is what happy co-workers look like always laughing and joking with one another. They push us to do what they knew we could do and let us rest when they see we're tired and they celebrate and are just as happy as us when we met our goals. Jennifer is hands down the best case manager you will ever get she will fight for you. Mrs. Lisa is the absolute best nurse practitioner, better then some doctors I have seen on my journey, she has the best bedside manner and actually cares, she will dig and research and give you her best. Dr. Ward is just the coolest doc around and never judged me for wanting to go slow on introducing new medications and hugged me and treated me like a family member every time he saw me. I 110% recommend PAM of covington. Not only was the medical staff amazing but when they found out I was basically allergic to everything they let me smell different cleaning supplies to see what would work for me, never making me feel like a burden, they made me a special bottle of just isopropyl alcohol AND placed a professional air scrubber In my room so I had the cleanest air possible. They went above and beyond for me and I will choose PAM OF COVINGTON every single time.

The staff here are great! Help is there when needed. The physical therapists are fantastic. I'm thankful for this place during my recovery. !

So far so good, the entire staff has been extremely friendly and attentive. They are easy to talk to and care about the patients that are here. At times they can be very busy and possibly bc of short staff but they take time w each patient and do not make them feel like a burden. The therapists are all extremely friendly and knowledgeable and make therapy fun. All of the nurses are so kind and treat them like their own family. We have only been here a few days but so far so good

Diane , Shawn, seoung , Ashley, Barbra, & all the wonderful folks here at Pam have treated me very well, & went well above the call of duty to make me feel comfortable in an extremely difficult time in my life, ,, thank all of you so very much, & may God bless each & every one of you 👍❤️😊😊😊

My husband came to PAM 3 weeks ago after multiple recommendations by people within the hospital industry. We are leaving soon, and wanted to leave a review of all the wonderful staff at the facility. The therapy teams have been an absolute dream! John with physical therapy is patient, kind and funny. He pushes us to constantly strive for better, and is a huge asset to PAM. Kristen with occupational therapy is also the sweetest woman I've ever met. She is helpful, encouraging and a great listener. Irene with Speech therapy is so incredibly kind and also brilliant. She describes every step of the therapy and why it benefits you. It made us feel so much more at ease in an area of medical care that we had not ever participated in. Kelsey, Noe, Travis and Anika with Respiratory Therapy were wonderful to work with. They moved my husband quickly through all the stages of respiratory therapy, while making sure he was safe, but also pushing him to the next step. The nursing staff was exceptional during the day, we adored Bonnie, Jordan, Lydia and Matt, and Monica and Natalie were great night nurses. As far as CNA's, Madison, Abby and David were all fantastic! These staff treated us like family, loved on my husband, and gave exceptional service. They constantly asked if we needed anything, were thoughtful with the meds being given, and carefully curated his healthcare to fit the need at the moment. We could not have asked for a better experience! The administration dealt with any issues that arose quickly and efficiently. We did struggle slightly with some night staff that struggled to find the patience to understand his communication methods, but we brought this to the attention of administration, and they dealt with it immediately. He was given control of his healthcare, and this eased anxiety in so many ways. We are so incredibly blessed that we came to PAM and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for an LTAC in the future.

I want to time to give Mr. Garth a very big THANK YOU! I'd been wanting to get my haircut, and he came through for me. He even helped with my shaving kit....He helped end this week on a great note. God Bless him for being here when I needed it the most!

I stayed here for 3 weeks and it was Amazing! Very clean and well kept facility, the Staff is warm and welcoming, You can tell that the Nurses really care and that it's more than just a job to them. The Aides are just as caring and dedicated. And P/T & O/T were very committed to my recovery! Love and going to miss them all!! YW/24 & 14A

Post Acute Medical took excellent care of my mom. From the staff that greeted you, to the nurses, doctors, food service workers, nursing assistants and the front office staff, they were always willing to help and assist in any way. The facility is so clean. The case workers stayed in communication with me on a daily basis, and were so kind and patient with all the questions I had. Thank you all for taking care of my mom and helping her get the care she needed. It’s about the human connection and spirit that helps people heal. PAM’s staff had that plus more! Thanks again!

Great experience so far. Everyone is so polite and very helpful. It seems as if they are willing to do whatever it takes to get your loved one healthy and back home.

My husbands best friend has been in the Pam Unit for 2 months. Not once was the room cleaned. Floors were so dirty. They would leave their trash laying in the room and on his bed. There was one RN nurse who was meanest uncaring person I have ever seen! They have now moved him to a nursing facility over 4 1/2 hours away that has awful reviews. It is so sad how people treat sick patients 👎🏻 they don’t even deserve a 1 star

This place is a complete joke. I should of knew the first 10 minutes we were there that it was going to be a nightmare. We got my dad there at 10 pm and when we got to the room it didn’t even have a bed in it. The speech therapy/nutrition employees were one of the rudest people ever. They are unprofessional and not very caring. One day one speech therapist said he could use a straw and have ice and water and the next day another person said he couldn't. The lack of care and compassion by most of the staff is unacceptable and unnecessary. Dr. Motaz B Hossein is very unprofessional and not friendly at all. He is not very compassionate. He doesn’t listen to the patient or the family. He is very stuck up. I hope that Kettering network never recommends this place to anyone in the future. I was actually worried for my father’s well being. I wouldn’t recommend this place to my worst enemy.

Horrible experience for my father in law. It was dirty and people were zero help with his rehab. I would give this place zero stars if possible. I would never send anyone there. It was suppose to be a step down from hospital care but there was hardly any care at all. He was there for 2 weeks and he made zero improvements. This place should not even be an option to send people too.

I just want to say Veronica-CNA has given the best care. She’s is the number one person that goes above and beyond with her care for her patients. She stops what she is doing to helps me and makes sure I am okay. Thank you so much Veronica

Patient care was perfect and staff was very friendly and helpful. The doctors are informative and were available and there everyday. I Just want to give a big thank you to everyone at PAM Health Specialty Hospital! This is my second stay here and extremely thankful to the doctors and staff for their care, concern and professionalism. Happy to be gaining my health back to head home.

My daughter was in this place. It was horrible! They treated her so bad. They were mean people. They would tease & mock her. They rarely spent time with her. She had to beg to have someone help her. I witnessed 2 nurses standing in the door way laughing while my daughter was beging

No one wants to be in Rehab, so id take some of the bad reviews with a grain of salt..So far these folks have been taking good care of my step dad. I will update if they turn out lame. Also, i like fact they took him out to get some actual sun.

Unfortunately the HORROR was the case workers who should help you with transitioning from the rehab to next place, my mother was sent to a city 3 hours away from us and then we had to figure out a way to get her home. The facility she was sent to was from the case workers reference as trained oxygen facility and that is why she was sent there. A complete nightmare, my mom has regressed instead of progressed, fell out of bed, the facility is understaffed, no one even under stands how to use a vent. Her doctor from the rehab even confirmed he didn't authorize her move. The rehab essentially just kicked my mom out without any conscious of where she went. So disappointed in the PAM facility on how they treated us.

This place is a hoke, reading through the reviews over 50% of the positive reviews were done by the employees. Must of given them a bonus to write a good review. I agree with a former review, the nursing staff is great with the amount of people assigned to them. The in charge lady has no empathy, she should be a drill sergeant not running a hospital. Making the numbers work for the big Corp behind them pulling the strings. Don't specialize in human care anymore, it's all about how good your insurance is.
