I am only giving this place a 3 because of the nurses and doctors they were beyond amazing very informative and they made sure we were comfortable and answered any question we had and I appreciated every moment of their help I can’t give this hospital 5 stars because the administration ( cashier in the front entrance of 83 Williams st right in front of gold st ) + medical records department + billing department made my life a living hell my husband was hospitalized for 7 days and I’m stressed out trying to stay attentive to my husband , son , and siblings that I was caring for they had to have been the rudest people on earth I would request the most simple needs such as directions for the finance department and the cashier states “ does it look like I work In finance “ .... I’m already going through a stressful situation the last thing I need from a hospital representative is to be treated with such rude remarks .... I go to the medical records department which I was told was on the first floor which was incorrect information given which I didn’t care about but as soon as I entered the medical records room these two older women are “working “ and I ask if I could get help sending my husbands medical records transferred to his primary care in ct and one of the staff members states “does it look like we have records here ? “ 🙂 so me being passive I ignored the remark then one of the ladies comes forward and tells me I have to fill out forms in order get the papers sent out and I was fine with (because I work in a medical office I know that protocol ) that and I told the lady would you be able to send these records today or tomorrow because of the urgency of his state and the lady cut me off and said no I will not be able to send it off we take 5-7 business days and I explained how important it was for his doctors to get these papers and then started to complain stating “don’t you have copies of the records “ and I responded yes they gave me one copy and then she raised her voice and said “so why don’t you make copies of those forms since it’s so urgent “ .... first off this is her job And she’s complaining to me saying I’m basically making her life hard for having to send hospital records to my husbands primary care ? I completely lost it I’m stressed out having to deal with my husbands insurance (BTW we don’t even live in New York we live in ct ) so I’m having to deal with my child , maintaining my family’s needs , on top of having to deal with my husbands current state .... I’ve never experienced such horrible service in my life it’s so unfortunate that such amazing nurses, techs , doctors have to work with such horrible administrative staff members it just makes people never want to choose this hospital again
