Okay so Park West has a new medical practice at their Belvedere Location. Ms Jones is her name. She…read moreisn't a doctor however her credentials allow her to see patients. She is very arrogant and have a nasty disposition. She tries to come off as a no nonsense person, however I think because she is the only person their seeing medical patients, she has allowed this to go to head. They should have a real doctor their seeing patients. Park west is known for this, they use to have a midwife there overseeing their gyn patients for almost 10 years before real doctor came to practice. If you are desperate and need low cost medical care, its okay to see a nurse, doctor whoever can get you the emergency help, but if you want to be seen by a Doctor, Park West Medical Center may not be best choice for you. Some of the other issues here, are that there just seems like to much play and too much conversation among staff.

You're naturally profitable thereafter. Yelping the circumstances of my interaction with a pediatrician in the middle of Maryland reverts to the tagline of my life; "you can't script this stuff". Suffice it to say, Dr. Starr is an admired person irrespective of the circumstances which brought us together. I respect his practice because I respect him first and foremost. He is not in it for the bottom line, he is in it because his heart is in it, the mark of a dignified man.

I witnessed the love and care which the staff gives to my mother and brother. For my mother I will…read moregive the simple example. Mom is having trouble eating. The staff could leave her to get her nutrition from a feeding tube, but they take time to encourage her and feed her. I saw a nurse run to get her a soothing cream for knee which is in pain. The little things are also significant. We left some nail polish, with no instructions and someone has been polishing her nails. For my brother I saw him have an incident and staff helped him up from the floor, which wasn't easy and held his hand and calmed him. I have seen bad staff, but not at Levindale.

I think highly of my doctor Janet Conway. They had a few good physical therapists and nurses. Laura my Nurse Practicioner was very good. Kristin my PT was good. Dr. Zhou cared. The Director of Nurses Shirell did not want to give my infusions of Zosyn as directed. I was given shorter infusions and higher doses. They got prescriber permission. Shirell said, "if you needed four hour infusions you should've stayed Sinai." What a nasty person. My Neutropene count dropped dangerously low due to the Zosyn. I was put on what are called Neutropenic Precautions. What that meant was that anybody entering my room was to wear a mask. One person wore what looked to me as a lay-person like PPE. I could not fight infection. I was to go to the ER with a temperature above 100.4 degrees. I was not weight-bearing. I needed help from a tech to toilet. The tech was supposed to hand me, sani-wipes. I only had 60° of mobility in my right arm. I would wipe myself from knee to waste on both sides while standing at the walker.The tech started jiggling the box. I said to the tech, a woman named Sandra, "Are you making fun of me?" Sandra took off her mask and got into my face. She was not even social distancing. She yelled, "Are you making fun of me? Are you making fun of me? Are you making fun of me?" She proceeded to verbally abuse me. I have never been so frightened. Nobody should fear the professional staff or anybody else lin a place where he or she is there to heal. I went to the site administrator Sharon Hendricks. Executives are typically identified by first and last name. They are not restaurant servers. They are not retail clerks. Sometimes I think better of restaurant servers and clerks than I do of executives. Sharon apologized by email and said that she would have her team look into it. When I followed up, they said they did not discuss disciplinary matters. They should've self-reported to Maryland's Office of Healthcare Quality. Sandra should've been reported to the Board of Nursing. I am lactose intolerant. They ran out of the lactose tablets. I could not have my food or medication for 15 hours. They are not doing their jobs. The Director of Nurses Shirell, the nasty one who yelled at me in my own room which while I was there was my home was supposed to send me bandages when I discharged. Sharon told her to do that. And she didn't do that because she doesn't care. Why is Shirrell working in healthcare. Levindale is supposed to provide case management and that means advocating against insurance. They would not do that for me because I am no longer on site. I wanted them to assist with insurance claims and advocating for claims that were incurred on site. These people are awful. They want to mess up, dump it on the patient, and ask me to private pay. Pay these people. Never! The Levindale management team replaced the Hyppocratic Oath with, "Bleed em' dry, and let em' die." My physician Janet Conway is outstanding. One doctor said to me, "You don't like hospitals. I don't like hospitals and I'm a doctor. Do what I do with my own care. Go for the doctor and put up with everyone else." These people milk that. Patients are people. Patient Relations seldom gets back to me. When they do, they say I am using my paralegal background to bully them with the law. Good. Patients are defenseless. These people take advantage of us. People go into healthcare for good reasons. There is something called the LCR, effect. I will not write out the name. Named after the adversary fallen from Heaven. There are not enough choices in healthcare in Maryland for the Levindale team to behave as badly as they do. My plan is a Medicare advantage plan. There's something called the First Amendment. No retaliation. Pursuant to HIPAA Iyou may defend yourselves publicly. "Sunlight is said to be the best of disinfectants." Brandeis.

When the Lavendale skilled nursing facility did not have Metamucil I needed Dr. Conway got that herself. This doctor really cares about her patients. Her PA Christina is outstanding with trying to resolve issues pertaining to diet it's great with wound dressings. Her other PA Hannah is awesome too.

Proceed with caution…read more Dr. Conway was my surgeon for two years. Initially, like many other patients I thought that she was the best. She is highly skilled, however after my second surgery performing the same procedures for a second time, I knew that I had made the wrong decision in choosing her. Additionally, Dr.Clifford Jeng at Mercy Medical was the doctor who informed me that Dr. Conway had implanted pins in my heel. The problem is that I did not consent to this. I brought this to the attention of her assistant, Shanae, and have left many messages in the past (almost) two years. Dr. Conway will not return my calls. Even when I was in the ER at Sinai for pain in my heel, she did not return my call. Another patient posted a similar review to mine on Healthgrades. I would highly recommend anyone looking for an orthopedic surgeon to think twice before choosing her. There are many other good, experienced orthopedic surgeons in the Baltimore region.

Do not leave your loved ones here overnight! You will regret bringing them here! University of Maryland is where I wish I would have gone. I had to leave Ama straight out of surgery. This nurse took great pride in not letting me fall asleep, no meds, anything to make me suffer. Little nurse at night with a black mole on the upper left side of her lip, about 20 something. If you see her, LEAVE. They don't let you see their names, so call as soon as you think they are harming you instead of helping. Sneaky little nurses at night
