Simmons Cancer Center .. New…read more My 73 year old wife had a lung scan every year since 2021 revealing "ground glass" effect causing recommend to another yearly scan. She missed 2023 because of couple extensive back and neck surgeries. 2024 scan revealed 2 very small nodules yet recommendation for wait a year see if they grow. Unknown to me maybe because my wife did not see it as significant. She kept this info from me. I would have pushed go back in 6 months at most. November 2025 one nodule had quadrupled in size now above the .8 MM that triggers biopsy. A good local hospital will remained unnamed performed the scans and biopsy but I knew she needed professional specialists. After some internet evaluation I might have chosen Houstons MD Anderson being number one in the world but distance and possibility of multiple traveling appointments caused opting for Simmons Center at UTSW. It has a very high rating, the same certifications, same modern technology and was closer access which is important for people of our age. It was a good decision as we met oncologist Dr Wei the next week who has an outstanding online video introducing herself to prospective patients. Just the video was reassuring! Even tho we had no appointment with Dr Nelson he came in and looked at our scans. Was also reassuring and said that they usually do surgery within 30 days if they think it is the correct path. This was music to my paranoid ears. PET scan and breathing test was required then he lived up to his promise removing both nodules and several lymph nodes for lab evaluation in the same surgery December 2025. They think she is cured (KNOCK ON WOOD) In summary I would give 6 stars if possible for both these doctors and even tho we did not have to use her expertise Dr Zhang (the radiation specialist) also was welcoming, friendly and very professional. These doctors and every one at Simmons from valet to pre and post surgery nurses were pros and always polite and friendly. We did not have to partake in their Hope Lodge which is a free hotel for their patients. Radiation would have been daily for 6 weeks and living 75 miles away would not have been able to keep up with that drive every day. But it is there if you need it. I have read some reviews about taking too long to get appointments or having to wait past time of appointment and would suggest achieving excellent trained specialist is the assignment for you or loved ones! Organizing yourself and your records will streamline the process of dealing with a large and very busy organization. Maybe write down notes in your smart phone listing questions as you think of them before the appointment. Finally patience might be the best attribute to becoming a successful patient. Let me assure you these people will be on it quickly

As a potential patient at UT Southwestern don't get any medical attention here. People here are…read morerude, unprofessional and they don't give a crap about you. The clinic gives such late notices about cancellations. I had a appointment scheduled for 22 July 2026 and they cancel the appointment on the 20 July 2026 at the very last moment. I scheduled this appointment months in advance too. Talking about not giving a crap! They asked what insurance I'm using and told them I'll be using VA because I am a Veteran, immediately after, I called my local VA clinic in Hawaii to put a red flag on this clinic, and to never send any United States Veterans here for medical help. They're so disgusting, and pathetic. They just don't give a crap.

I am honestly quite surprised to see Baylor University Medical Center has such a low overall…read morerating, because my experience (while a bit unconventional) was a really positive one. I visited on a random Friday afternoon specifically to see The Adrian E. Flatt, M.D. Hand Exhibit, and it was absolutely fascinating!!! Dr. Flatt, one of the foremost hand surgeons in the world, made significant contributions to orthopedic surgery and began casting and bronze-coating the hands of notable individuals back in 1962. Walking through the exhibit, I was truly mesmerized by the detail and individuality captured in each cast - it's incredible to see just how different people's hands can be. Highlights for me personally included the hands of Walt Disney, Louis Armstrong, Katharine Hepburn, several US Presidents, athletes like Troy Aikman, etc., and even expeditionists like Everest survivor Beck Weathers. The exhibit is located in the lobby area of the hospital and appears to be open to the public, though you will need to obtain a visitor pass so be sure to bring your ID (a photo of it on your phone works too... ask me how I know). The exhibit itself is free to view. It's more of a hallway-style display, a bit tucked away, quiet, and not busy. There's something oddly human and grounding about focusing on something as simple as hands in a place where so much serious care happens. I also grabbed a coffee from the nearby cafeteria and had no complaints, it was actually quite good and a nice added bonus. As for parking... I can't confidently speak to that, as we may have risked it a bit (oops). So while I can't speak to patient care (thankfully), this visit was a memorable and worthwhile experience. It's a unique hidden gem within the hospital and a great place to spend a little time if you're nearby, especially if you're looking for a quiet moment of reflection. Five stars for this unexpected find. Thank you to my friend and Atlas Obscura for the intel!

I don't think many people come to a hospital because they want to and so it is sure nice when you have a great people on the other side of this equation that make you feel welcome and cared for and that is exactly how I have felt on my visits here. My first visit was for a pre-surgical appointment or what I like to call a mini physical. I received caring and compassionate care, and at least while I was in front of the people I encountered I felt like I was the only person in the world that mattered to them, which was a great and comforting feeling. My second visit to the hospital included a stop in radiology, and then to preop surgery and postop recovery. Everyone along the way, really cared about me as a patient and helped me be as comfortable as I could be and what to me was not the most pleasant situation. I applaud the staff here and I applaud the management here because staff cannot be who they are, and let the light shine unless they are comfortable to do so and it was very obvious that these people are allowed to let your light shine and make patients feel better about what they are going through.

A Heartfelt Warning About Methodist Hospital - My Experience as a Husband…read more In my opinion, I cannot recommend Methodist Hospital in Dallas, Texas, based on my recent experiences as a husband dealing with my wife's critical health situation in the ICU. Despite my efforts to advocate for her care, I encountered significant barriers that truly compromised both my rights and her well-being. As her husband, I understand that I have the right to be involved in her healthcare decisions, to be by her side during this challenging time, and to receive updates about her condition. Unfortunately, I felt that these rights were not respected at this facility. Throughout my time at the hospital, I repeatedly expressed my concerns and tried to communicate on behalf of my wife, who was unable to speak for herself. Yet, I was often met with resistance. On several occasions, I was asked to leave the hospital after attempting to speak with healthcare professionals about her medical needs. This treatment left me feeling helpless and frustrated, especially when all I wanted was to be there for my wife--to make sure she was receiving appropriate care and the medications she needed. In my opinion, the staff seemed more focused on limiting my involvement rather than collaborating with me in her care. I encountered numerous instances where my requests were dismissed, and my presence was challenged, which exacerbated an already stressful situation. To be sidelined as her primary support and decision-maker felt not only unjust but also emotionally devastating for both of us. Moreover, I witnessed my wife's distress during her stay, experiencing panic attacks and discomfort from being separated from me, her advocate. I believe that the ability for family members to support their loved ones should be a priority, especially when they are vulnerable and in need of compassion and understanding. This experience has left me emotionally compromised and questioning the hospital's commitment to patients and their families. In my opinion, anyone considering bringing a loved one to this facility should think twice. You may find that, rather than receiving the support and care you expect, you could face overwhelming obstacles that complicate an already difficult situation. My intention in sharing this is to protect others from what we endured. The focus should be on the health and well-being of the patient, their rights, and the support their family members provide. Based on my experience, it felt as though the hospital prioritized rigid policies over patient-centered care, leaving me feeling powerless during a critical time in my wife's life. To those reading this review, I implore you to consider the implications of bringing a loved one to Methodist Hospital. In my opinion, the potential stress, anxiety, and heartache from navigating the challenges of their system could overshadow the care your loved one truly needs. Before making a decision, think carefully about whether this hospital aligns with your values and the level of support you hope to provide. Your loved ones deserve compassion, understanding, and accessible care, especially in their most vulnerable moments. In my opinion, no spouse should have to fight for their right to support their partner during a health crisis. I hope that sharing my experience can help others avoid the difficult path that I and my wife have faced. Thank you for taking the time to read my review. I hope for improvements in the way this hospital handles patient and family rights to ensure no one else has to endure what we did.

He has a bad wound and was not seen by a wound specialist until Friday at 1pm after I advocated and advocated and advocated for him. A wound nurse was requested on the day of admission and the following day but they never came. A wound doctor was finally requested last night (Thursday). This inadequate level of quality care could have an extremely negative impact on the outcome of his wound. Remind you, this wound was brought to this institutions attention Monday at 2pm when he was taken by ambulance to the ER. I was told by a staff member of this hospital last night that the wound specialists are understaffed and are up to 6 days behind on seeing patients in this facility. I feel this violates my father's patient rights for patient care and safety. I requested to speak to the House Supervisor yesterday evening and have yet to be contacted by them 24 hours after my request was made to the Charge Nurse. I have contacted the Patient Assistant Office to file a formal complaint. We are currently waiting on the CT results (ordered by the Wound Doctor this afternoon) of his foot, to better understand the extent of damage, the level of necrosis and all this wound entails after the neglect inflicted by this hospital.
