Absolutely terrible experience, I'd give ZERO stars if it was possible. My appt was with Dr. Albano, who works out of this location (Orthopaedic and Spine Surgeons of New Jersey). I was referred to Dr. Albano from the Hudson Regional Hospital ER.
11.30a: The time my appointment was scheduled for.
11.15a: Showed up to fill out paperwork; waiting room was very warm.
12.29p: A/C finally turned on in waiting room.
12.31p: Was finally brought back to the exam room.
12.40-50p: Overheard one very loud employee (doctor?) who sounds like an C19 anti-vax regulations person (based on his conversation), and was also calling Alec Baldwin an asshole who probably shot and killed the cinematographer on purpose because, "how else would they get two live rounds in there?" (re: accidental shooting with prop gun).
12.57p: Was told, "Dr. Albano will be right in, alright".
1.00p: Apparently all exams are done with doors wide open because I hear doctors and nurses having clear conversations with patients. And the door to my exam room has been open since I was brought back 30 minutes ago.
1.13p: "I had the [C19] virus, it was just like the flu...I was on Albuterol." - same loud employee as before.
1.18p: Was asked if ER referred me to Vizzone or Albano.
1.20p: Doctor finally saw me. Turns out the C19 anti-vax regulation employee was not Dr. Albano, but some other employee (it definitely wasn't Dr. Albano based on his voice).
1.24p: Appt over. read more
