My daughter's name is Tiffany Ellen Mathisand they are trying to separate us without letting each other know where the other will be going. My daughter and I live out of my car which is sitting in a gas station parking lot and can get towed any time. I am a disabled veteran name, Tuyet Kim Mathis. I told the social worker and doctor the truth and all it got me is a diagnosis that will not do me nor my daughter any good in the future. Can someone please get us release? This is a waste of government and workers time and money. They held my daughter down and sedated her for no reason. We are trying to look for our family for months and still haven't found them. My other daughter, Kimberly Ann Mathis aka Grey, aka Hudson Mathis has been missing for months. Tiffany and I are trying really hard to find her but we are now stuck in this facility. They do not have respect for veterans or as a parent. I just wanted to talk to my daughter to calm her down but they wouldn't let me sayjng I'm a patient here. I do not care, Tiffany is my daughter and I have a right to see how she is doing without you nurses holding her down and medicated her to the point where she is sleeping for hours on end. How much of that sedated meds was she given? Can someone please release her and myself. They are separating us this morning so I would or could not know where she will be. Please help release my daughter, she is a National Guard on ground surveillance soldier. She can not be placed in a mental hold one ward. She has to look for her sister and her dad for us to fly home. She is probably considered Missing In Action by now due to this. Please release us and let my daughter and I continue to find our family. I do not recommend this place if you get an M1 Hold.

The main hospital is over 120 years old, and the campus has expanded significantly. Because the…read moreCity of Denver is constructing a bus line through the center of the historic Colfax Ave, traffic can be a bit heavy at times, but overall the area runs smoothly. The hospital itself is nice--just be prepared, it stays chilly all day. But I will say, once enough patients comment about the cold, the heat definitely kicks in! Lol. Checking in can be confusing. Even if you check in downstairs in either building, you still have to check in again at your respected clinic. Honestly, that feels like a waste of patients' time, especially when you already arrive 30-45 minutes early. It's not nice to the elderly either as it causes confusion. My appointments have gone well, though. Waiting between appointments isn't the most enjoyable unless you're patient or good at passing the time. All of the providers I've seen have listened and been very respectful. Dr. Downey in Pulmonary and Dr. Wienberger in Cardiology are excellent doctors. I didn't get to meet Dr. Balkissoon, who was my originally assigned pulmonary doctor--sigh. I've known Dr. Downey for over 15 years; he's a great doctor, and he rarely accepts out-of-state cases which was a treat to work with him again. Now that there are two buildings, it would really help patients if the schedule clearly listed either the "Smith Building" or the "Main Adult Clinic Building." They can abbreviate the buildings if possible on the schedule. Some of my appointments and procedures have been moved up, while others remained at the same time, but overall my experience--15 years later--has continued to be positive and meaningful. Best wishes to everyone who comes to this wonderful research hospital. I hope you receive the answers and understanding you need for a better quality of life. Happy Yelping!

I left UcHealth Anchutz because of the same lack of basic customer service. I plan to work with my ent for my sleep treatment.

I asked I thought this was a bone density exam. After back and forth about the appointment the technician looked up my order and sure enough I was booked in the wrong section. She then proceeded to tell me that they normally don't take walk ins but I can ask. So the technician walked me to the correct office and sure enough I received the same canned statement. I then said I took the day off for this is there a way i can get in? The clerk went to the back and asked a technician and sure enough she said I can get fit in. All in all the procedure took about10 minutes. Way less time than to drive to the appointment and the hassle of figuring it out but it's done and all came out well. And I can't forget to mention about the great valet service I received as well. Top notch!!!

THIS WAS DELETED IN LESS THAN 24 HOURS ON GOOGLE AND I'VE FILED A COMPLAINT WITH EMTALA…read more I have a rare tumor that could potentially spread, waiting on an adrenalectomy, & I don't want to be on any type of birth control or have any other surgeries first. Based on my symptoms I strongly believe I have endometriosis & I've already had to diagnose all my other serious problems, including the 2 rare genetic disorders. I have an extremely high pain tolerance due to a near lifetime of cluster headaches but I was in excruciating pain & was actually crying in the fetal position on the gurney. He came over & asked me where it hurt, I said my uterus. He said, "Can you point to it?" I said, "Do you not know where it is?" & boy did that make him mad. Well, how insulting is it to ask a 42 year old woman without obvious brain damage if she can locate the source of her very distinct pain when she's got blood coming from the same place as the last month of the last 30 years?! I'd already reported this pain to my PCP and it was in my record. He kept almost yelling at me to sit up as I was literally shaking in tears from the pain & couldn't. I'd already suffered for hours at home before even going there. I told him I just wanted some Toradol & thought I'd be ok. He refused on the grounds of nothing & said I could only have Tylenol. Toradol is like stronger ibuprofen and has absolutely no abuse potential. Every time I'd plead for some Toradol or ANYTHING other than useless Tylenol he'd repeat his obnoxious "We do things in a step-wise manner here" line, & I guess Tylenol is always Step 1 at PSL. It's stupid to take a step that's only going to set you back or delay your progress if you already know for certain that step is useless! I have a "multi-gene deletion", and have a lot of odd little problems like not metabolizing a lot of drugs well or having paradoxical reactions and have proof of this in my records! Absolutely nobody abuses Toradol anyway and it's stupid and cruel to make me take something I'm 100% sure won't work and wait around an hour before he'll actually try to help me. It would be great to just be believed for once. Pain is not a virtue and there's a psychiatric term for people who enjoy watching others suffer when they could help and it's not supposed to be physician. This was clearly about punishing me for not treating him like a minor god bc he decided I needed an intravaginal ultrasound and he should have known I wouldn't be able to sit through it I was in so much pain so it just furthered my suffering without any additional information. Of course, at that point he could have actually given me a real medication and gotten it done but I guess it wasn't that important after all bc he was just determined not to give me anything but ineffective Tylenol. And as a victim of SA, I really don't appreciate having strangers down there for no good reason. I have medical PTSD as the result of the obvious cancer it took them 5 years to diagnose after saying I had it for 5 years and being treated like a lunatic. I also have PTSD from the SA. This whole experience was incredibly traumatic and I would NEVER IN A MILLION YEARS go to an ED if I thought an OTC drug would help and I'd already been prescribed one thing that didn't work. It doesn't get you high and isn't dangerous for short-term use so why was he so determined to give Tylenol & not give some kind of reasonable medical explanation for why it wouldn't be safe to take a different drug? I really don't think there was any, Ryan Reinkin, DO is just a misogynist. I think that was his name but he wasn't exactly impressive enough to remember after submitting my complaint to the medical board. Nobody better tell me to contact the patient advocate, these people are completely, utterly useless for actual help. They are there to try to prevent violence & lawsuits & don't care about you, they work for the hospital. They "investigated" & determined that they do things in a step-wise manner there. *Insert cursing here*

Doctors are very friendly and food isn't too bad for hospital food. I did receive wildly different…read moreadvice from 2 doctors for the same injury which confused me. One of those doctors was a specialist so I just followed their advice, but for the first doctor, I'd say it's better for patients to hear "I need to consult with our specialist" then get the right answer over guessing and being wrong especially when you are frantically googling a condition you're not familiar with on your phone in front of me. Billing could be vastly improved - I cannot count how many different bills I received so any sort of consolidation would be lovely. Additionally, I don't understand how it's so hard to send the correct billing document to the patient. I've requested the same document multiple times now using the specific form name and I keep getting sent the wrong thing or being thrown into an email loop.

What I wasn't understanding was my mother was still fairly independent and fairly sharp cognitive. When the doctor flagged my mother's chart that's when I told my mother she was done with Kaiser. The doctor didn't want to listen to how my mother said she was feeling which I found to be disrespectful. My mother just went to her new doctor ( my doctor) not a Kaiser doctor for her annual checkup, had a cognitive evaluation and was given a clean bill of health. The doctor said cognitively she was normal for 86 years old and that one of her medications can slow the cognitive circuits a little and she was in good shape. The Kaiser doctor never said anything about this medication being able to slow the cognitive circuits a little. We both feel such a sense of relief. I feel I saved her level of independence and quality of life she has.

I've been a Kaiser Permanente member since birth and generally have had positive experiences, but…read moremy recent visit left me feeling disappointed and frustrated. For the past few days, I've been dealing with typical viral cold symptoms that escalated to include a persistent cough, chest pain, shortness of breath, throat irritation, nasal congestion, bloody discharge, and a severe headache that turned into a migraine. Concerned about these symptoms, I tested twice for COVID-19--both negative. After my chest pain worsened, my friends and family urged me to seek urgent care. At urgent care, I explained my symptoms and received a strep, flu, and another COVID test--again, all negative. Despite feeling like there might be an underlying issue causing my symptoms to worsen, I was given a breathing treatment, prescribed an inhaler, and sent on my way, feeling like I had wasted both time and money. After following the care plan to the letter with no improvement, I made an appointment to see my Primary Care Physician (PCP). Instead, I was met by a nurse, Ms. Roberta Owens, at the East Denver Clinic on August 26th. I arrived slightly late, feeling absolutely miserable, and received a call while checking in, warning that my appointment would be canceled if I didn't check in within 10 minutes of the scheduled time. Already struggling to speak due to my symptoms, this added stress was not helpful. Ms. Owens quickly took my vitals and started asking pre-questions. From the start, our exchange felt defensive and combative. I was coughing so severely that it interrupted my speech, yet she continued to push the conversation. There were no tissues in the exam room when I asked for one, adding to my discomfort. I expressed my main concerns--particularly the intense sinus pressure and headaches--and suggested that I might need a referral to an ENT specialist. Instead, she ordered a chest X-ray, which unsurprisingly came back clear. Back in the exam room, Ms. Owens reiterated that what I had was likely just a cold, dismissing my concerns. While I understand that sometimes immediate medical remedies aren't possible, compassion and kindness can go a long way. Unfortunately, Ms. Owens seemed dismissive and didn't listen to understand my concerns. Her demeanor left me feeling emotionally drained on top of already feeling physically unwell. This experience was a stark contrast to the quality of care I've come to expect from Kaiser. I hope that future interactions will be more attentive and empathetic.

She has always been very responsive to my panicked calls (when is it not an urgent call, when your tiny baby is sick, even if it's "normal"?) She has also welcomed my questions/hesitations when it comes to some Western medicine norms, and she always offers holistic and research-based advice/thoughts/diagnoses. She even met me on a Saturday (not office hours) to give my girl the last of her three-day antibiotic shots for an ugly ear infection. Personally, she diagnosed and has helped treat issues I've had for years -- that a counselor, midwife, dermatologist, and naturopath didn't catch. While it is a younger and smaller practice, I'm definitely willing to overlook a less-than-friendly receptionist who answered the phone a few times or confusion with paperwork. The care and professionalism we've received when it really counts is invaluable to me. Update (Feb 2018): she no longer has a frazzled receptionist. Leslie is always kind, warm, and welcoming! :)

Yet it was a complete let down from the moment I called to make an appointment.

Unfortunately, she was very impersonal, did offer a natural and holistic approach I was looking for and rushed me out of her office. I'll keep looking for someone that will offer me more than 15 minutes of their time. I wasted a $30 copay on 15 useless minutes.

I had been struggling with mold toxicity along with a host of other symptoms and felt truly stuck, but he completely changed that for me. From the very beginning, he listened so well and really took the time to hear my whole story. Prior, I had seen my PCP, an allergist, and had countless visits to urgent care where they all could not find a cause for what I was experiencing, recommending I address "anxiety." On the other hand, NP Yu explained everything in a way I could actually understand, breaking down everything and helping me see the bigger picture of what was going on in my body. He identified the right testing, uncovered clear biological markers, and built a comprehensive plan to address the root issues. For the first time, I felt like I wasn't just being treated for symptoms, I was actually being cared for as a whole person. Because of his guidance, I've experienced dramatic improvements that I never thought were possible, and also genuinely learned so much. What really sets him apart is not just his knowledge, but the way he genuinely cares. I left every appointment feeling heard, understood, hopeful, and supported. If you're on the fence about functional medicine like I once was, I can honestly say NP Yu is the person who can help open that door for you. He's made such a difference in my life, and I'm truly grateful.

Review: I brought my…read morefour‑year‑old to this ER because she was having chest pain and body aches from coughing for two days. She hadn't vomited at all until we arrived, but once we got into the waiting room she threw up everywhere. Not a single staff member got up to help. I had to get up myself, ask for assistance, and ask for something to clean it up. Someone eventually came with a towel, wiped the floor, and walked away. Did not sanitize the floors chair. We waited about 30 minutes before being taken to a room. They gave her Tylenol and ran a COVID/RSV test. While she continued vomiting in the room, we were told we needed to go back out to the waiting room because they "needed the room." I questioned how it could be safe or ethical to send a vomiting child back into a crowded waiting area, exposing her and everyone else to more germs. Their response made it clear they didn't care. At that point, I decided it was better to take her home than force her to sit in a waiting room covered in vomit. As we were leaving, we saw a grown man vomiting all over the waiting room floor with no help, no vomit bag, nothing. That's the environment they expected my four‑year‑old to sit in. The lack of compassion, hygiene, and basic standard of care was shocking. The whole experience felt chaotic and dismissive--more like being told to "pull forward and wait" at a fast‑food drive‑thru than an emergency room where sick children and adults are supposed to receive care. I left extremely disappointed and concerned about the quality of care here.
