This establishment is so lucky to have Fran the most amazing physical therapist EVER! She takes her time and is very thoural and urges you to push yourself just enough to see results. Her knowledge and care and concern for each individual case is just phenomenal. As long as you do your part; results are not far away. You will certainly be missed. Again thank you a million

I was at the Carthage emergency room this morning for symptoms of kidney stones. Take care and compassion that I received from Dr. Lee and the other nurses and staff was absolutely Phenomenal. I cannot express my gratitude for them taking such great care of me and trying to alleviate the extreme pain that I was in. This was by far the best medical experience I've ever had!

I took my 6 year old son in at 4:00 on a Friday because he cut his lip after a fall. The staff was friendly and quick to get him seen. Every nurse we saw was wonderful to him and helped ease his anxiety over receiving stitches. George (a PA) was fantastic and stitched his lip perfectly. Thank you all for caring for my boy!

The worst hospital I've been too. I was throwing up and running fever I had to sit in the waiting room for over 2 1/2 hours! The first nurse was so rude and was like " we aren't gonna let people die in the waiting room" but I give props to the second nurse because she was so nice and trying to keep everyone calm. But then my nco tried to find out some info about what was going on with me and they kicked her out. One of the worst places and will not be going back

Radiology front desk customer service is atrocious. I showed up on time to my appointment and before I even get a "good morning" or "hello", I'm told I'm late and it's 100% my fault, and I'd have to wait for an hour. There was no confirmation calls to ensure I knew to arrive 30 mins early for my MRI, no apology for subpar scheduling work or anything. Just nasty looks and told to wait for an hour.
Please train your staff in customer service and how to work through scheduling errors with respect. I worked front desk at one of the largest hospitals in NYS and if I had the same nasty, dismissive attitude as the 2 women at the front desk this morning, I'd be fired! Hoping I never have to return here again. Came to the ER 6 years ago during a miscarriage and had a terrible experience then too. I see nothing has changed.

Doctor asked me if I go to church, replied with I'm not a spiritual person and his response well it could help. So I was basically told I need Jesus. Proceeded to try to explain to me I have no business feeling the way I do because I have a roof over my head, a job, and a decent relationship with my family and fiance. But redeemed himself by prescribing me anxiety meds. Wait time wasn't half bad. Nurses were nice.

Sad to post this because it used to be a great hospital. Took my wife there, having all the covid symptoms, and I have no idea what they did because they don't tell you anything they tell the sick person who has no idea what is going on. She was in and out of there in less then an hour and couldn't tell me if they did anything or not just that she had to go. The next day a nurse calls about some test results I'm assuming, but refuses to talk to me even though my wife is still out of it and can't talk. I tried explaining to the nurse she couldn't talk and she said fine and hung up. Will not be going here again and will be filing a complaint through the state.
