    wonderful experience with the care and compassion here at his hospital! we all drive 30 minutes…read morefrom home To go here because tge care is exceptional !please expand to Middlesex county we need a place in Woodbridge as a sattalite emergency pavilion for our residents !

    Where do I begin. This place is surely not like Morristown. I went voluntary inpatient to their…read morepsych ward about a year ago after a suicide attempt. I genuinely thought I would finely get the help I need. Boy was I sure wrong. From the moment I entered it felt like an internment camp. Toilets and sinks made of steel. A shower which blasts you like the fire hose you would experience in the Newark Riots. In fact, I think I would have been safer downtown Newark come to think of it. I was treated like a prisoner. I was mocked by the entire staff because they did not obviously know how to treat DPDR which is what I had and not just depression/anxiety. I have never seen such an uncoordinated place in my life. What genius decided that all mental patients regardless of their diagnosis including homicidal deranged people clearly on drugs should all be put together??!! I had to spend my 8 horrible days/nights there in solitary confinement from the outside world suffering continuous ridicule from both patients and staff. I am legally disabled and was mocked for how I walk, I was recorded and laughed at behind one way mirrors while attempting to sleep with an individual who called himself the "Pisser" whom peed around my bed in the middle of the night and not one worker came to remove him or clean up his mess. They also held a viewing party because I could hear them behind our room laughing and talking about me and this other creature next to me who snored on top of peeing so loud, I think a jet engine would be softer. Many people I see here talked about their disgusting rabbit food they would feed me since I'm on a renal diet. The workers were amongst the rudest, soulless, immoral individuals I have ever had the misfortune to meet. There was no structure at all. You are expected to read the wall or pamphlet for times and expect to visit the various groups. My DPDR caused me balance issues and memory issues so they took advantage of my mannerisms and gestures to mock me by staging fake repair men to pretend to repeatedly fix the air on a ladder when you could clearly see they were solely watching me as no work was actually happening. When I asked questions, they would deliberately send me to the other end so I would have to walk and often no one was there. When I was sent to dialysis about 3 times, they would tip off the techs and nurses and dietitian and they went out of their way to stage a patient next to me pretending to call home and he would keep repeating words or topics I discussed in their so-called therapy. They had a dietitian sit in the bay next to me and she pretended to review what to eat on renal diet but there was no one there she kept saying things like, "So you can't eat yams, they have potassium, so um you know like bananas are bad too, so um ya like don't eat potatoes either." Know these words alone is not how a professional would talk so I know they were meant to mock me because at DPDR onset your thoughts are not as fluent. They sat me in a special wooden chair so I would suffer there too. The nurse deliberately went as slow as possible to the point of supreme exaggeration to insight mockery of me. When my mother and brother came, they would lie and often say I was not available or that everything was fine. I do hope there is a special place in hell for these liars. If I had one wish is that they get audited and raided by the FBI and fed government to seize their computers and all surveillance. Then the truth about what really went on with me and probably countless other poor souls trying to get help but instead got tortured. I spoke to AJ Mertz about this and the patient advocates. My family and I have been in this hospital over the years for multiple surgeries, ICU, even my father passed here. Management needs to clean house. There are always a few rotten curds in every brick of cheese. Communications is very lacking as I saw during a major surgery stay and here too in Baby Alcatraz Ward. Manipulation is not therapy!

    My mom has early onset Alzheimer's. I researched neurologists and chose Dr Patel because she…read morespecializes in memory loss. I made an appointment for her MONTHS in advance, only to find out the week before that Dr Patel would not be able to see her because my mom used to be a patient of one of her colleagues in the practice (who no longer works at Atlantic Health) 2 years and 9 months ago. Their policy is that the doctors only see patients once every 3 years. Despite the fact that my mom's memory has steadily declined over this time, she cannot see the doctor. When I persisted and advocated on her behalf, they agreed to let her see Dr Patel, but on another day. Because the time slot during which I scheduled the appointment was reserved only for NEW patients. Save your time! Don't see Dr Patel

    Dr. Anjali Patel and her ANP Paren Wali have no place caring for patients in cognitive decline. I…read morehave worked in medical for 15+ years and this is the absolute worst treatment I have ever received on behalf of my loved one, who is suffering with memory loss. You will wait months just to see Dr. Patel and when you do her bedside manner and compassion will be absent and then you will be passed off to a nurse practitioner who is extremely inexperienced. There was zero follow up on any of the diagnostic testing directly from the doctor, all that is offered is a follow up appointment with the NP. NP had the audacity to say my loved one was "visibly upset" and that she would connect us with a "social worker". I was appalled. Of course my loved one is upset, their short term memory is completely depleted. She also recommended doing crossword puzzles. Suggesting CROSSWORD PUZZLES to a patient that is already in cognitive decline is disgraceful! The Atlantic Neuroscience Institute should be ashamed of this treatment of memory loss patients. My heart really breaks for any family that has waited to see the doctors at this office, they show absolutely no compassion for how awful this disease is and also seem to have absolutely no solutions. You will be passed off to an extremely inexperienced and unprofessional NP with little to no direction for follow up care. I will be the first to say I reacted very emotionally in the office based on the treatment that we were given. However, something needs to be done and changed inside a practice operating this way. Please AVOID this office at all costs and find a competent providers with compassion and consistent follow up care for your memory conditions . My love goes out to the sufferers and caregivers of this awful disease, doctors like this should not be allowed to care for you.
