Mary Hitchcock Memorial Hospital

I live in New York City. While vacationing in Vermont, I had a medical emergency requiring a 5-day hospital stay. The treatment and care I received from doctors and nurses at D-H was top notch, making my first-ever overnight hospital stay not as bad as I thought it would be. Such a medical powerhouse for the region!

David R. Chavez, Pediatric Urologist reviewed by a grandparent and guardian of a young adolescent. Dr. Chavez was disrespectful and insensitive to my concerns for my grandson. I was shocked at his treatment of me and his insensitivity in discussing my child's condition in the child's presence. My child was visibly shaken by the "doctor's" treatment of me. I reported the disrespectful treatment to my PCP in Keene. I refuse to return to Lebanon and will take a referral to Mass General. Perhaps "the doctor" was having a bad day? I expect more. Apparently, a degree doesn't qualify someone to understand these sensitive issues and the manner in which they should be handled. Please be aware of this when you bring your child to Lebanon and request a different doctor.

Massive building full of all aspects of medical care. They are taking over for sure and hopefully for the better. One stop shopping here, even some decent food, and a cute little gift shop with cool items. When you get inside it feels like your walking through a big mall, the open space makes you feel welcome, like a courtyard. It's like Buy n Large from Wall-E built a hospital. Nice to look at from outside and some art decorations to look at inside.

I’ve been here in this hospital since I was a child (or teen) and I will always love this hospital too. I had great doctors and nurses. Plus I love the food court and a nice (yet expensive) gift shop and it a great place if you need your walking in. Piano sometimes would play in the main big hall. I would love to come back and see the new extensions of the building they added. So Dartmouth Hitchcock will always be my favorite hospital. ~Abby~

Very very Slow. Poor communication. Not very helpful when asking important questions. Unfriendly staff. I Highly recommend finding a different medical facility.
