I arrived at this emergency center with my daughter at 2:00 p.m. due to an eye emergency. The…read moreinitial registration process and vital signs were relatively quick. The physician then ordered a CT scan. An IV was placed, and we were walked to the imaging area. During the procedure, my daughter vomited. She was given a hospital gown and returned to the treatment area, where she remained for more than four hours wearing soiled clothing and with the smell of vomit, without being offered any appropriate option for hygiene, clean clothing, or basic care. This was deeply uncomfortable and undignified. We repeatedly requested information about the test results. We spent an extended period in an exam room without any medical provider present, with a computer left open displaying sensitive information about other patients who were waiting. This represents a serious breach of privacy and confidentiality. Eventually, we were verbally told that the CT scan showed no findings, without a clear explanation or immediate follow-up plan. In total, we have been in the facility for over 10 hours. Later, a doctor entered the room and once again asked why we were there, highlighting a troubling lack of continuity and communication in her care. This experience was dehumanizing, marked by a lack of empathy and a failure to meet the basic standards of respect, hygiene, communication, and confidentiality that every patient deserves--especially in an emergency setting. P.S. As of 12:07 a.m., we are still waiting to be discharged, alone in the doctor's exam room, and have now been waiting for more than 40 additional minutes with no communication or update.

My pair of glasses had broken, I was out of my contacts supply and I was due for my annual eye exam anyway. Upon arriving, you see the clear indications of mandatory face masks and you're automatically greeted by Marbelly. She is so polite! I was seen rather quickly, considering the amount of staff is being limited to one receptionist and one optometrist. For my first visit, I was seen by Linnett Molina and the second by Tharanie Amarawardana. Both very professional and thorough. If you make an appointment in advance, chances are you will be seen at that specific time which is always appreciated by patients. The neighborhood isn't the best but the office is impeccable.
