Our family cannot say enough wonderful things about the Wound Care Center at Northwell Health in Valley Stream. From the very first visit, every member of the team treated my mother with such kindness, dignity, and compassion. They never made her feel like just another patient--they made her feel truly special. Over the course of an eight-month journey, we were fortunate to be cared for by an incredible team, including Dr. Manoj Sadhnani, DPM, and nurses Kortney, Patricia, Jolly, Carla, Stephanie, and Mary. Every appointment was filled with warmth, encouragement, professionalism, and genuine concern for my mother's well-being. Wound care can be a long and challenging process, but this team celebrated every bit of progress with us. They always took the time to explain everything, answer our questions, and make my mom feel comfortable and cared for. By the end of her treatment, the celebration of her healing felt like a victory for all of us because they had been with us every step of the way. Their clinical expertise is exceptional, but what truly sets them apart is their compassion. They gave my mother not only excellent medical care but also hope, confidence, and so much kindness. Thank you, Dr. Sadhnani and the entire team, for making a difficult journey so much easier. We will always be grateful for the outstanding care you gave my mom and our family. read more

Went here for stitches - incompetent inexperienced crappy doctors. Most doctors have you recline with your head steady - this particular idiot just had me sit and he didn't do a good job - how did they not know how to do anything? He was a foreigner. Middle Eastern- it's better to know and worn others. read more

So my daughter has a UTI and was in severe pain. 4 o'clock in the morning I met her here. Emergency staff registered her right away and took her in. Thankfully, it wasn't busy so she was attended to promptly . the staff & security are very nice and incredibly helpful. They need to wash the floors though because they were dirty in the emergency room and it didn't look good. read more

Waited three hours after I was assaulted and came to the ER for emergency medical treatment. Staff very rude, as well. Just awful. Avoid at all costs. read more

Horrible experience. Don't go there unless you go by ambulance. You will be there for hours and the staff doesn't care about what's going on. Waited hours and didn't see a doctor after 6 hours of waiting. read more

Excellent care in the emergency room but especially with Bridget & Jia, also after been admitted for observation the Dr. & the rest of the staff were amazing, not to mention the food was very good as well. definately was not expecting this. Kaliope M read more

I was pushed into the ER on a gurney and spent 3 hours lying in pain in a hallway, waiting for help in the recent couple of weeks. Absolutely no one came over to help or even ask what was wrong. A relative who drove me there asked about when to expect some help. No answer! We continued to wait. ...Another patient and their family behind me was experiencing the same BS... I wound up leaving, still in pain. It's either an incompetent ER staff or sh#tty hospital management! (One star is too many, but there's no way to post this without a star.) Stay away from this group. They suck! read more

Critical care and pulmonary care for my husband .The nursing staff and doctors were excellent

Outstanding surgical experience: from pre-surgery testing to the actual day of the procedure, handled fully by pleasant, professional staff at all times. I honestly cannot say enough about the kind, caring doctors, nurses and aides who assisted me throughout my journey. The facility too, is downright spotless and fresh. read more

HORRIBLE experience. Bad enough I had to have surgery, the OR staff left a blade from a scalpel in me, leaning up against my spine.. see the X-Ray below. They're supposed to count everything going into surgery and check everything out at the end. ABSOLUTELY CARELESS. The nurses outside of the OR were very helpful as they were a few years back. read more

LIJ Valley Stream - Hospitals Near Me - Valley Stream, New York

Hip revision surgery by Dr Germano left me in more pain than before the revision. I'm in constant pain. Wish I never had gone to him.

If you are looking for medical care you might get that here, however you most certainly will get Dr.'s and PA's who will racially profile you, gaslight you and marginalize you. If you are a black woman and you care for your health and overall well being, I beg you to never come to this ER. If you are in pain you will not be taken seriously and you will not receive proper medication upon discharge. Please, never come here. If only I could put zero stars. read more

I had surgery here a year ago. EVERYONE was great. The Doctors Nurses PT and all auxiliary staff were knowledgeable and compassionate. My room was nice, even the food was good. I will require another surgery soon and would have no doubts choosing Northwell Valley Stream. read more

I recently had a hip replacement done here at LIJ Valley Stream. I am still a patient here and this is my first time. I normally go To Stony Brook University Medical Center and rave about it. My Orthopedic Hip specialist said this is where he operates so I came here. I must say from the moment I have walked into the hospital and through my surgery and now rehab I have encountered nothing but kind, smart, caring dedicated professionals. The hospital is extremely clean. The staff superb and even the food delicious. My surgery was a bit more complicated then expected and I must say Dr Munn and all the staff have been fabulous. The hospital itself is top shelf with beautiful amenities. Their PT is fabulous. Every single Doctor and professional have been exemplary. Thank you for helping me heal after being in pain for many years! read more

My husband is currently on 2 W after a total knee replacement. There isn't a negative thing that I can say about our experience. I am a nurse so I am more critical than most. The food is fabulous. The nursing education is fabulous. The ancillary staff is very attentive. What more can a patient ask for? read more

The cafeteria and food is disgusting and they feed the heart patients bacon and slabs of fried pork and high sugar to diabetics. Somebody needs to put a stop to this insanity and clean up that place ASAP!!! read more

Worst experience ever. My Mom was taken there and never came back! The Security Staff is rude and nasty. They would not let my relatives see my Mom and she passed. They did not feed her or pay attention to her medication. The care was horrible. Please DO not go there. read more

Some of the doctors are rude and nasty not really ready for this professional health care service.this is very poor bad Experience here

I'm a patient in valley stream hospital right now and I'm not really happy the way I'm being treated they are giving me Liquid stuff and that stuff actually hurts my belly and makes me go to the bathroom constantly read more

Let me tell you never bring any valuables to this hospital. Don't let any elderly loved ones carry them unless there tied to their bodies. My elderly mom went there by Ambulance and long story is that they 'lost' her iPhone. Did some digging they had the phone on some inventory list in the ER, then not on the inventory when they moved her into her room. Of course now after an investigation suddenly the phone never appeared on the inventory sheet which means they doctored the paperwork. Oh yeah and the ambulance company in fact said they gave it to her when she entered the ER. I called the iPhone several times (3-4x) and it rang every time and then someone turned it off. This is one hospital you shouldn't trust. The care isn't that great either, and SOME staff are rude and just don't wanna be there, written all over their faces. I've taken my mom now to Winthrop past few times. Better and cleaner. I'd give 0 stars if I could. Thief's !!!! read more

had my second hip replacement here with Dr Gus KATSIGIORGIS of Island Musculoskeletal Care. Again with perfect results. No heavy pain. Great Food too. I was seriosly amazed caprese salad for lunch. grilled rack of lamb chops for dinner and so much more Ofcourse the care was attentive and complete and as far as Dr KATSIGIORGIS I would never have any other doc so my orthopedic care. then off to Orzak for rehab and again I was blessed. top notch same great food. Five star all the way. with physical therapists who treat the whole you not just the part. a wonderful experience. (As wonderful as joint replacement can be!!) read more

One of the worst hospitals within the staff on their phone patients need assistance. I overheard all the complaints and conversations. Took video of workers giving massage and talking about other patient etc. read more

I must say I was pleasantly surprised today! After having my head bashed with a bat and a candy dish, l figured it was going to be a bad day all around. Since the blood would not stop pouring from a large gash in the back of my head, I made my way to the ER at LIJ. In the past I have had some bad experiences and long wait times in the emergency room at thid location, but today that was not the case. I'm not sure if it was because I was covered in blood from head to toe or the fact is it was not very busy because of the co vid virus, but I was taking right inside after the triage nurse saw me. They seem to genuinely care about my injuries and the attack itself. Everyone was very pleasant right from the get-go, and that each step I was seen pretty much right away. It was determined that I need a CAT scan so I was wheeled down, there was much pleasant chatter on the way down and they put my mind at ease. After the CAT scan a very nice physician's assistant was able to staple my head back together. She took much care to make sure that I was completely numb and had a pretty tender touch. I was very impressed with everyone's bedside manner! Within a few hours I was back to normal, missing a couple of pints of blood and gaining a few staples. I would highly recommend lij whenever you get your head bashed in. Today I rete them 5 stars! I would not hesitate to go back next time I am assaulted by a goon, hopefully next time it's not a family member! Thank you lij! I'll see you in about a week! read more

LIJ Valley Stream - My head vs a blunt object.... - Hospitals Near Me - Valley Stream, New York

They were very thorough I had tons of testing done downstairs. Very quick very attentive I loved the meditation room while I was waiting for the results.

Don't ever come here, been here since 2pm didn't get seen til 8pm and am still currently here at 11:20pm! And all I'm waiting for is a chest scan result and urine results!!! Doctors are ignoring me when they see me in the hall clearly upset they are taking their time! Would give 0 stars if I could read more

Disorganized, indifferent, uncaring, ignorant and unhelpful are the first words that come to mind. The Right hand doesn't know what the left hand is doing. I Enter building, tell lobby reception desk I'm going to radiology and they nod indifferently. I continue to the world's slowest elevator and go down and through to the radiology department, where I have been before and I'm greeted by a woman who tells me I don't have an appointment before she even asks my name. She then tells me I needed to stop at admitting to sign in. This is back behind the lobby reception desk and there are no signs in the lobby for it. I sign in on a clip board and with no one ahead of me, I wait half an hour to be greeted and sent back to radiology. The rest of the visit and the car valet went about equally well read more

This hospital has changed so much! The staff here is phenomenal as well as the care that they provide. Don't let the appearance of the old "Franklin" hospital fool you! read more

Back in April my dad got sick and when he called to speak to a doctor about his prescription this broad had a nasty attitude. There is no need for that like just because you're miserable and hate your life doesn't mean you have to project that onto everyone else. I wish I had her name. I hope she gets fired read more

Poor service by nursing staff and the Nursing management is incompetent and don't like being questioned about protocol. My sons mom was there for 15 days and didn't sleep one night. Suffering from seizures and got no help. Very dismissive and non moral or empathetic to her needs. We will never go there again. She had a massive seizure and no one called me to let me know. I went there to find her unresponsive for 8 hrs on oxygen.. read more

I've been to this location 3 times. Every single time has been such a comforting experience. The facility is outdated but the staff is amazing. I came in positive with Covid and feared I had a pneumonia. They gave me the best care, they really cared about me and assured me I would be ok. Doctors were so patient with my questions. My patient care tech and nurse were so good spirited. I really appreciate them all, from registration to discharge. read more

I went there last night for my asthma and they sent me home this morning even though I didn't feel better and when I try to talk to the doctor about it she wouldn't even come to talk to me. Dr. Vanessa Duran is the worse. read more

worst hospital on the island!! the bathrooms are small and dirty , no one attends to your needs , the wait time is RIDICULOUS , NO ONE LISTENS TO YOU read more

Ugh. I will never return here to this hospital in an emergency just based on room set up. Bathrooms are shared between two rooms so that means at least 4 patients are sharing a bathroom. This was the most disgusting germ infested stay ever. The bathroom grossed me and the next patient I was sharing a room with. Just imagine waking up early in the morning to use the restroom your first day there and walking into a pissed covered floor, pissed covered toilet seat and piss odor permeating the whole bathroom. I'm not a germaphobe but this really was unacceptable. As soon as they clean the bathroom, the patient in the next room would go right ahead and dirty it all over again. It's so unsanitary for a hospital. I had to buy slippers just to walk in and out the bathroom and they went right in the garbage at discharge. Never again!!!! read more

Reciently had HIP surgery my Orthopedic surgeon is Dr. James A. Germano. I can't thank him enough for his EXCELLENT care and sincere after care. Everything was thoughtfully explained from admission to discharge. He is very concerned about our comfort and wellness. He went above and beyond about my aftercare, I have never met a more skillful, knowledgeable Dr. Thank you Dr.Germano. Sincerely Angela Bellia. read more

My elderly aunt passed away from COVID last night and they said they would call if it turned that way and she passed and no one got to say goodbye, but Of course they called multiple times about the DNR. When my cousin got the call and she said i thought you were going to call me so we could say goodbye the nurse said well you can say goodbye now. She was already dead! There should be mandatory communication between families and loved ones via cell phones every 30 minutes for people who are not doing well. read more

Dr. Chen , and tech named Lloyd and another tech named Omar were exceptional! I came in for chest pains and headaches after being neglected when I first came in Lloyd notified everyone that I needed assistance and he even got my nurse tech to help him with my monitor after the room had no power instead of giving up he and Omar tried every outlet to get the monitor on to check my pressure. They provided me with blankets and reassured me in my time of need and worry. I wasn't in the best mood and they joked and were an absolute pleasure . God bless this whole team. Dr Chen was so informative and knowledgeable I instantly felt I was in good hands so much so I tried to switch to him as my physician. This is not the first time he has treated me and each time I'm confident In my care I just wish he can be my permanent doctor. He went over all possible scenarios before treating me . I am extremely satisfied with my care from the staff that assisted . read more

The only reason I gave this er one star is because the triage nurse was nice helpful and accommodating as well as the nurse manager. If I could give zero stars I would to the doctors . I wasn't seen by anyone except the triage nurse. I wasn't examined by anyone . Never met my dr but he or she ordered a ct of my neck . Without even looking in my mouth or at me in general . I waited two and a half hours and decided to leave and see an ent to get scoped in the morning. It was to the point as I was leaving the triage nurse thought I had been seen and released. She was shocked no one saw me and was apologetic for the drs negligence. I might add that I got there around 10 and the fast track dr refused to see me. So hopefully I'll be alright but this is the poorest dr pt care I have received ever. Who orders. A ct with out even seeing me? Does no one have a otolaryngologist on staff? A p.a.? Nobody? Needless to say I'll just stick to going to manhasset when it comes to my emergencies from now on. read more
