    Saved my life. I miss him greatly. I am stuck at the Compass Medical Mill now, your Home Depot for Medical care.

Despite our vehement objections, he was held much longer than he should have been given the nature of his issues. The nursing and other staff were fabulous, however.

    This place completely changed my life. I am so grateful for the week that I spent there back in…read more2017. I had a serious spell of depression from 2013-2017 after a major life upheaval that I thought I'd never get out of (I'd had a pretty happy and blessed life before that), and tried a few different things during those years to get help including at least two other hospitalizations, but this was the magic place where I found a fresh start - depression retreated finally, and this place also helped me quit drinking. Life's been great since! It's so funny, one of the other reviews I see for this place written by Ashley she had the exact opposite of my experience -- we both tried McLean Belmont and McLean SouthEast, but for, me this place was the winner while Belmont was a total clunker for me, and for her it was the other way around. Anyway, I spent 7-8 days at McLean SouthEast, and I was really impressed with the treatment they offered. Specifically: a) The staff are GREAT, and the system they have really works -- at all hours of the day, you're assigned to a nurse and also to a mental health specialist, which means that if you're having a problem or need to talk to someone you almost never to have to wait, and usually you can pick which of the two you feel more of a rapport with. (Both the nurses and MH specialists are people you'll get to know anyway -- MH specialists teach the classes, lead activities, stuff like that, and the nurses you interact with when getting meds and stuff like that.) Whether it's a panic attack or you just have something logistical you need help with, it's really great when you ask for help and it magically appears, sometimes immediately (and waits aren't long when they happen). The staff are really caring and well-trained -- and there's enough of them that you're bound to find a few you really feel a connection with, and who will be influential in making sure your hospitalization is successful. b) Great "curriculum"/programming. Weekends are sort of a holding pattern until the week starts, but: Each weekday, you have 2-3 little classes where they lead activities and teach you mental health coping skills and big-picture life management stuff, and in my experience usually 1 out of the 2-3 that I took every day were FABULOUS (there's a guy there named Larry Bosco who taught a class I always got a ton out of, he rocks!); the others were mostly fine, with one or two boring ones now and again, but overall I was impressed with the "curriculum." It was like mental health middle school. You do a group "check-in" each morning to set goals for the day, and a "check-out" in the late afternoon to reflect on them, often with some goofy icebreaker get-to-know-you aspect. So each weekday basically goes (it's been over a year so I might be slightly off on some of this): 8amish - Check-in 9am-10:30ish Class 1 10:30-11 Daily doc appointment 11am-12: Break 12-1:30: Lunch 1:30-3:00 Class 2 3:00-3:30 Break 3:30-4:30 Pick one out of three activities (arts class, trivia, or walk as a group to the foosball table down the hall) 4:30-5 Check-out 5-6:30 Break 6:30-7:30 Dinner 8:00-10:00 Free time, you can hang out on your own, watch TV in the communal TV room, and there's usually some activity option if you want, like walking outside or trivia or something) c) I was very happy with the nuts-and-bolts medical care. You get a doc appointment every weekday (Mon-Fri), and I really liked my doctor -- if I hadn't, they had 2 other docs you could try out instead. They really paid attention to what was working and not working, and respected my preferences when I had them, and by the end of my stay I had two medication changes that really made a huge difference to my life (an antidepressant I'd never tried that worked wonders, and a less powerful anti-anxiety medication than the one I'd been taking) and made me feel waaay happier and calmer. d) The facilities are...exactly fine. Not amazing, but not gross or bad. It's like a middle school combined with a college dorm. It's very clean and well-maintained but still institutional and unassuming. Almost everyone was sleeping 2 to a room, and the bathrooms in between each bedroom were split between 2 rooms/4 people. The reason I'm putting 4 out of 5 stars is just because of a few really minimal logistical downsides -- like the mediocre hospital/cafeteria food (most meals were fine and edible, but once or twice I couldn't even bring myself to eat what was being served), the fact that one or two of the staff I met treated me rudely (but that was out of like, 50 staff members I met, and all the rest were REALLY wonderful), and I mean, it's not like a vacation or something. You're in a psych hospital! No privacy, you have a roommate who is ALSO by definition not at their most stable, you don't get to play on your phone or use the Internet. But that's all minor gripes. Cuz yeah, this place gave me my life back - Thanks McLean SouthEast!

    Terrible Experience from start to finish - we won't ever be back…read more Middleborough Pediatrics has a cultural issue, they simply do not care about making you feel welcome, heard, advocated for, or part of co-creating a health plan for your child. Let me explain. 1. Outdated policies without consideration of economic / time consuming impact to patients. You have to print all your medical records & either hand deliver them, or mail them in before they'll consider scheduling an appointment with you. 2. Inconvenient Hours: The reason we chose Middleborough Pediatrics was because I was under the impression they had weekend office hours for sick visits, and evening appointments. For some reason, during a global pandemic, the practice has chosen to drastically reduce these hours to 8-5PM. When patients need care most, they've decided to cut back on available hours instead of maintaining them. 3. Misquoted car seat safety recommendations, incorrectly citing the American Academy of Pediatrics: When I was surprised to see that my son did not meet the 35 lb. weight limit for his rear facing car seat, Dr. Gross explained to me (very condescendingly) that according to AAP, children under 2 years of age should remain rear-facing. When I contested that I have read conflicting information, I was shut down by Dr. Gross who repeated, "Well, that's from the American Academy of Pediatrics", and then continued to recite outdated information. According to a 2018 update to the Car Seat Safety Regulations by the AAP, the most up-to-date information concludes that all infants and toddlers should ride in a rear-facing car safety seat as long as possible, until they reach the highest weight or height allowed by the seat's manufacturer. This means that it's important to know what the height and weight recommendations are for your rear-facing car seat, and to not make assumptions based on a child's age. Considering that over 80% of parents have car seats installed incorrectly, and that car accidents are the leading cause of death and injury among young children and infants - you would think Dr. Gross would be abreast on the most up-to-date car safety regulations, you would also think that he'd be interested in hearing what a parent thought was the correct information, so that we may have an informative conversation resulting in the overall safety of the patient, and first-time mother before him. 4. Outdated views on how to discipline children. Offered outdated, punitive suggestions when asked about age-appropriate tantrum behaviors. Dr. Gross asked if I had any concerns about my child's behavior. I explained that since returning to daycare - there have been instances of head-banging during emotional outbursts. The head-banging behavior has subsided over the past few months, most noticeably in parallel with our son's ability to know and say more words to express himself. Dr. Gross went on to explain to me that I should say, "If you're going to act like that I am going to leave you here by yourself" to my ONE year old child. When my mouth fell open beneath my mask, Dr. Gross went on to explain that when a child has a temper tantrum, parents need to ignore the behavior completely and only offer attention once the tantrum has stopped. Offered "time-outs" as a method to reduce unwanted behavior in a 17 month old child. I'm not a child behavior specialist - but neither is Dr. Gross. He should not be doling out inaccurate/outdated information and punitive child-rearing methods without doing some research. 5. Terrible bedside manner - Dr. Gross made a comment that the "only time it's okay to comment on a woman's weight is if she's lost it". When I disagreed, that no, it is NEVER okay to comment on a woman's weight, and explained that perhaps the weight loss is from a new medication, or diagnosis, or stress-related event - Dr. Gross cut me off and said, "MOVING ON!" and proceeded to ask me a gamut of unnecessary family-history related questions that I already answered in the mountain of paperwork they mailed to our home prior to our visit. The only positive during our visit was our interaction with the nurse. I wish I remembered her name, but she was excellent with my son. She was helpful when I arrived, I was stressed / answering a work call when we walked in, & she was really understanding about me being on my cell phone. I wish we could live just stayed with her the whole time. But overall, from the first phone call with this practice to the interaction with Dr. Gross, I am disheartened (but validated) to see that our experience has been echoed by other reviews on Google. I'd rather drive the 45 min north to see our old Pediatrician at Boston Children's.

    Me an my family have been coming to Middleboro Pediatrics for well over 30 years. Me an my sister,…read moreand then our kids. They are the most amazing office and staff goes above an beyond. They are available 7 days a week and you can always get a sick visit in that day. I give it 10 stars if I could.
