I was there on 5-22 for an echocardiogram my rx said echocardiogram. The technician decided to do it with contrast and got a nurse to start the IV.i do understand that sometimes it is hard to find a vein but she put the tourniquet on and im sure almost everyone knows how that hurts. She left me for approximately 3-5 min while chatting with the tech. I said are u serious you leave me here. Long story short she now tried to find my vein and kept poking me.
I told her to stop and remove she had no clue what she was doing besides it never said on tx to do this. An echocardiogram is a sonogram unless dr wants contrast. Never again go there for anything. University radiology is so much better. It was so wrong for her to decide on her own to do this without an ordet from dr. Terrible. My arm All black and blue and hurts.

My recent medical procedure was done here due to the physician's close proximity, rather than JSMC. The staff managed to put me at ease even before my arrival. I am grateful for that, and have NO reason for complaints of any kind. Highly professional.

I went to the hospital at a very late time. They had plenty of nurses and doctors. I went to the hospital because I was having chest pains and got anxious I was having a heart attack. They did all the tests I needed and found absolutely nothing wrong. Which sucked but they did the tests i wanted and assured me I was not dying and thats all I needed to later figure out I was actually vitamin D and B12 deficient. They had me waiting for a while but the standard of care was very good.

There is only one place I will go for my therapy CentraState. Been there before and am going there now. The care given to us patients from the receptionist to the therapists is their going to any extent to make you feel better. When after your treatment you feel uncomfortable walking they hold your hand right to exit door. God Bless all of them.

The wait is always extremely long and there's always a packed waiting room. I've seen nurses/staff being rude to patients multiple times. The last time I was here a few months ago, they would not let my mother come in with me due to their rules with Covid. Which I understood but was disappointed they couldn't make an exception as I have PTSD and I am also triple vaccinated. I guess in an emergency situation if this is the closest hospital to you it's fine. But if I had extra time I'd make the drive to Jersey Shore Hospital.
