Disappointed and Deeply Concerned About My Father's Care…read more I am writing this review with deep concern and disappointment over the care my father received during his recent admissions to JFK Hospital. My father, an 83-year-old man who was living at home and managing his daily activities on his own, was admitted to JFK on August 19, 2025, after experiencing sudden weakness in both legs. Despite our repeated concerns about a possible stroke -- including noticeable weakness on his right side -- the emergency room staff kept him under observation for three days without ordering an MRI. We requested an MRI multiple times and were told it wasn't necessary. On August 22, the hospital was planning to discharge him home, as they couldn't find anything wrong with him, despite the fact that he couldn't walk on his own. We had to advocate strongly and insist that he be sent to a rehab facility for physical therapy, even though we suspected a possible stroke. My dad had experienced a stroke back in 2013, so we were particularly concerned. When I visited him at the rehab facility on August 25, he was in a wheelchair and unable to move his right hand or even hold a spoon. This was alarming, especially since he hadn't been like this before his hospital admission. On August 26, while at dialysis, he was sent back to JFK ER for evaluation of worsening right-sided weakness. This time, a doctor said an MRI would be ordered -- but when I followed up on August 27, there was no order in the system. Again, we had to advocate hard for proper care. I contacted the Patient Advocate, and only then was he moved to the stroke unit, and an MRI was finally done on August 28 -- nine days after his original ER visit. Later that evening, after inquiring about the MRI results, we were told the results were abnormal and that the doctor would call us the next day to discuss them. I made it clear that I needed to be contacted at work, but no one ever called. On August 29, I followed up by calling the unit and speaking with the nurse in charge of my father's care. She was unable to provide the results and said the doctor would call me. However, since no doctor called me back, I reached out to the Patient Advocate again for assistance. It wasn't until August 31, when I asked the nurse in charge of my father's care to request that the doctor speak with us during a visit, that we were finally informed by the attending physician that the MRI showed a recent stroke. Had we not consistently advocated for my father, his stroke may have gone undiagnosed. I strongly urge others to advocate relentlessly for their family members in this system -- your voice may be the only thing that ensures they get the care they need. No one has presented a clear care plan to our family, and the overall communication has been severely lacking. It is both heartbreaking and frustrating to witness such neglect and delay in care, particularly for an elderly patient who cannot express his needs due to his age and condition. The lack of urgency and thorough evaluation was unacceptable. It feels as though his condition was minimized simply because of his age. This entire experience highlights a breakdown in basic communication and a failure to provide timely, appropriate care. Please advocate fiercely for your loved ones. You should not have to fight this hard to ensure they receive the appropriate medical attention. JFK Hospital has deeply disappointed me, and I sincerely hope they take serious steps to improve how they treat and communicate with patients and their families. We will not be bringing my father back to JFK Hospital in the future.

So, like I said before, I came in for a job to get a physical, skin test, and drug test and the service was stellar. Every nurse was SO sweet and helpful, especially considering I didn't know what to do. Both the doctor and the nurse explained each test they ran and went through all the procedures thoroughly for me. I felt like I was being taken care of rather than pushed through like most clinics I've been to. Also, the office is very clean but a little old. It's not state of the art or anything. It's located at the JFK Hospital but it's tucked away into the woods in the back. It's in Parking lot G, but there is no sign for G. Instead, follow H (leads you into "Family Practice"), which will take you to Occupational Health Services. I had to drive 30 minutes to this place so I'm glad it was worthwhile.

Stay away. I injured my shoulder at work in January of 2015. The first time I went to Occupational…read moreHealth the doctor took an x-Ray and told me that he didn't see anything and it was just a pulled muscle. He gave me a week off from work. I then returned a week later and even thought I told him I was still in pain, he sent me back to work and told me that the pain was all in my head. The day I went back to work I couldn't take the pain and my company sent me back to them. There the same doctor told me that i was fine and it was all in my head and that he did not want to do an MRI because if he found something they would have to treat it.(hmm) I then went to my primary doctor who sent me for an MRI and it showed that I had a partial thickness rotator cuff tear and an impigment on my shoulder. Went back to the doctor and he told me that it is normal to have rotator cuff tears as we age (I am 27). I then asked to speak to the chief who then sent me to an Orthopedic. I've been coming to Occupational Health every month for one year for this injury and every time i come it takes 3 to 4 hours of my day.

We met with a "specialist" who seemed like more of a sales person. She immediately recommended a helmet for my baby and tried to "relate" by telling me that both of her kids wore helmets. She then went on to talk about how her neighbors kid who is 7 now didn't get a helmet and how her flat head is still noticeable to this day. We felt very uncomfortable throughout the visit. After I asked multiple medial questions and about the data supporting helmets, the specialist realized we weren't falling to her sales pitch. She suddenly had to go and said she would follow up on my questions. She never did. We ended up making an appointment at The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and met with an actual specialist. They said our baby did not need a helmet. I would not recommend this place as they caused many sleepless nights for my wife and I. I would recommend seeing a true specialist at a children's hospital to have your baby properly evaluated.
