Places like St. Vincent's are the reason I have PTSD. Literally EVERYTHING during my experience at…read moreSt. Vincent's was horrible, traumatizing and some of it was even potentially illegal. There were almost zero therapy groups while I was there and staff fell asleep one night, allowing a male patient to enter a female patient's room while she was sleeping. I was locked in an office with a male psychiatrist during my intake (this was potentially illegal). My rights as a disabled person were ignored that night and the male psychiatrist who locked me in a room with him came up to the unit I was on the 2nd night to tell me my dad had been out of control when he was trying to lawfully enter the office while I was having my intake (he WAS NOT out of control). This same psychiatrist also tried to convince me that my autism was not a real disability. I also woke up the first morning to find a male employee sitting in my room which was highly inappropriate. There is so much more I could say about how horrible my time at St. Vincent's was but that's enough for now. The only good thing about being at St. Vincent's was interacting with the other patients. We basically formed our own therapy group and took care of each other (we called ourselves the Breakfast Club).

March 3, 2021: One year, 7 physical therapists, and 12 doctors later, I have been diagnosed with…read morecongenital hip dysplasia, cam impingement, and they also found labral separation. It is believed that my legs were pulled in the position they had me during the botox procedure causing further hip pain. It is unfortunate that I have been treating my symptoms in the wrong order as many of my symptoms did not manifest until the day I had my procedure at Maze Clinic. I am still having moderate to significant pain in my groin, lower abdomen, lower back, and have consistent vulvodynia and pudendal neuralgia symptoms as well SI joint inflammation consistent with sacroiliitis/degenerative change. All of these symptoms began immediately after having the botox procedure here with the aggressive dilation. May 2, 2022:  I recently had stage IV endometriosis (adhesions, lesions, and cysts) excised in addition to having two PAOs where my hip dysplasia, impingement, and chondral labral separation, and SI joint inflammation were also causing significant pain. The endometriosis was everywhere, specifically behind the rectovaginal area, and most likely present when I had this procedure as well because I had debilitating dysmenorrhea that was overlooked. Endometriosis can cause deep dyspareunia, superficial dyspareunia, vulvodynia symptoms, hypertonic pelvic floor and more. It's just unfortunate that none of these were diagnosed or appeared earlier prior to doing this procedure. This is a common problem as many people face dismissal and are misdiagnosed over and over. I was told by many physicians and physical therapists including this place before this treatment that I just needed the "extra push." My vaginismus/hypertonicity is just a symptom compared to everything else. I also most likely have congenital neuroproliferative vestibulodynia - overgrowth of nerve endings at the vulvar vestibule - which is often mistaken for vaginismus for many patients. There is a tremendous lack of knowledge/literature in the relationship between hip abnormalities and pelvic floor dysfunction. Hip dysplasia and/or impingement can lead to hypertonic pelvic floor and labral tears which can cause pelvic pain, SI joint inflammation, and symptoms that mimic pudendal neuralgia/vulvodynia and bladder urgency. Most pelvic floor PT exercises STRETCH and RELAX the muscles surrounding the hip, which is actually the OPPOSITE of what you need to do with hip abnormalities (dysplasia and impingement) since it can cause further damage and exacerbate pain symptoms. The bottom line is that I needed real surgical interventions - 3 SURGERIES with leading surgeons before I could even come close to treating the sexual dysfunction and hypertonicity. No amount of dilation or botox would have helped any of this. My hips, buttocks, and lower back have little to no pain anymore and strengthening has had the best benefit for me. To both patients and providers, attend an ISSWSH annual meeting or course to learn more about sexual health and stay up to date with the recent literature. Pelvic floor dysfunction can have many causes and misdiagnoses are common. If you are someone with a long history of pelvic pain, tightness, and the pain exists not just internally there may be something else at play. Also, if pelvic floor PT doesn't help or makes things worse, please go to another specialist and/or have a sacrum, pelvis, lumbar spine, and hip MRI/CT scan first. Please consider hip abnormalities, endometriosis, SI joint dysfunction, and vestibulodynia, and screen your patients for lower back, lower abdomen, and hip pain too.

Immediately upon visiting his office i felt comfortable and after consulting with him weighing all the options I was sure his care was what I had searched for. Working with his office staff to understand my medical plan and personal financial responsibility I moved forward. His skill, care and supporting team were outstanding. The outpatient surgical center was immaculate and the nurses were excellent. The outpatient care and follow up visits were consistent with the quality of care provided every step of the way. The resulting look and function of his expert skills are exactly what was needed. Having had other doctors positively comment on the results, as well as, family and friends was no surprise to me. Not only my peripheral vision but my appearance has improved significantly. My ability to see better while looking like a better me is most satisfying all thanks to Dr. Greenwald's care and expertise.

I met Dr. Ciardullo back in 2003 when I made an appointment to see him for a breast augmentation consultation. This was going to be the first big surgery I'd ever have and I was nervous about the appointment so I brought my mom with me. During the visit he made us feel very comfortable, explaining the whole process from start to finish, pre-op, post- op etc. He listened to our concerns and spent the visit answering all of our questions without rushing. After going over the details of the procedure, he gave us a tour of his operating suite (which I felt was more of a comforting setting as opposed to being in a large hospital). After the visit my mother and I decided this was the doc for us! We booked the appointment and came in a few weeks later for the procedure. I was very nervous the morning I went in but he reassured me everything would go smoothly (and it did!). The anesthesiologist and nurses who took care of me were all very sweet - in fact, the anesthesiologist, nurses and front staff that were present for my breast augmentation over 10 years ago were also there for my rhinoplasty last month! Since having my first surgery in 2003, I have gone to him for every procedure I've had (including a chin implant, fillers and botox). I have referred friends and family who have also had rhinoplasties, breast augmentations and abdominoplasties (tummy tuck). The office is always welcoming and I couldn't be more pleased with their services. It's very important when booking any cosmetic procedure that you go to a doctor who is experienced, professional and honest with all his patients - And Dr. Ciardullo is all of that and more!

I wish I never stepped foot into this practice. I chose them for my pregnancy care and it was a…read moreterrible decision. My first annual visit was so pleasant I was excited to receive care here but once I became pregnant the problems started to arise. I did not receive a pregnancy packet of information for a healthy pregnancy or the REQUIRED discussion with their nurse until my 20 week appointment. I was asked if my morning sickness continuing into 20 weeks was a "me problem" I did not receive information meant to be distributed at 28 weeks, until 32 weeks Their website was 10 years outdated and had incorrect information about birth practices at Phelps hospital, when I found this out I tried to contact them to get answers and was pacified being told they would "get to the bottom of this and make sure to get you answers" instead I was scheduled with a new midwife who when I asked about this, I was told she had no idea and didn't know any of the hospital practices. It then took additional weeks for them to not correct their website, but completely remove it. When I continued to bring up my concerns over lack of information on hospital policy I was told I should look into home birth options (it was too late in my pregnancy to find a home birth midwife who was accepting new clients with my due date). I never ended up meeting all the midwives before my delivery I went to the hospital for prodromal labour and was told I should stay since "they were going to induce me tomorrow anyway" but I was never informed of this previously. I opted to leave and was informed by a nurse I needed to sign an AMA that I was choosing to leave. I asked the midwife on call if this was true and she said she did not know the hospital policy. I was constantly being hounded to schedule an induction despite multiple refusals and a MFM doctor telling me my placenta looked healthy and he had no concerns about me waiting until 41+4 to induce. When I did go into labour (not induced) I was terrified to find out that the midwife who I felt completely uncomfortable with due to multiple negative appointments was on call. I told myself I just had to wait 12 hours and a new midwife would be on- nope! Kathy Herron was on call for 24 hours and made my labour so uncomfortable. She was rude, hostile and honestly traumatizing. She laughed at me while I tried to work through labour pain and was having a difficult time. She continually asked me to break my waters which I constantly refused then they "just broke in her hands". I fully believe she broke my water without my consent even though I made it clear that was NOT what I wanted. When it was time to push, I told her I needed a moment to prepare myself mentally and she said "most women would be happy right now". She wanted me to give birth how she wanted and when she wanted. I wish I could give my experience 0 stars and am genuinely afraid for other women to have this same experience.
