Office staff is unprofessional! 1. They set me up with the…read morewrong email address, so I didn't receive the paperwork for intake 2. The intake paperwork contains a single form with 350 questions, many of which are essay style. The intake worker didn't have access to my finished form, although I could see it online via the portal. 3. The first appointment is for intake. I received a call the morning of the interview saying they'd need to reschedule because the intake worker hadn't been notified of the appointment. 4. The intake worker phoned 15 minutes late. I had already phoned the office to find out where I should be logged in, and they told me I would be notified when my appointment started. I had to explain multiple times that the appointment time was in the past. I was told "that shouldn't be the case", and then "she'll call you."

1 star -- A deeply disturbing experience at MidHudson Regional Hospital…read more My husband was admitted to MidHudson Regional Hospital in Poughkeepsie on the evening of August 28, 2026, for profuse bleeding from his groin/urethral catheter site and a UTI that was already being treated by his nursing home. I am his legal guardian. This was his seventh hospitalization in approximately 10 weeks for these recurring problems. During his hospitalization, I was asked about another CT scan. I then learned that a CT performed on August 28 had actually been a brain CT. I had not been informed that a brain CT had been performed. The hospital record reportedly listed "altered mental status" as the reason for the brain CT. My husband does become confused/delirious when he develops an infection, and I specifically told the hospital staff that this is what happens to him when he has a UTI/infection. His reason for being brought to the ER, however, was profuse bleeding from the groin/urethral catheter area while being treated for a UTI, not an unexplained neurological problem. I am not saying that a brain CT can never be appropriate for an elderly patient with altered mental status. I am saying that the hospital should be able to clearly explain what altered mental status they observed, when it occurred, what I reported about his infection-related delirium, and why a brain CT was considered necessary in the circumstances. I am also extremely concerned that I was not informed about the CT at the time it was performed. The discharge experience was equally unacceptable. On August 31, caseworker Megan told me my husband was medically cleared for discharge and that an ambulance would pick him up at 2:00 PM. His nursing facility is only about 10 minutes from the hospital. I went to the facility at approximately 3:30 PM to meet him. He wasn't there. I was terrified. Given his condition and his repeated hospitalizations, I feared that he had suffered a medical emergency, had coded, or had been involved in an accident during transportation. I called the hospital and was then told that the pickup time had been changed to 5:30 PM. Nobody had called me to tell me that the scheduled transportation had been delayed by three and a half hours. For a vulnerable patient and his legal guardian, this is not a minor scheduling problem. A guardian should know where a patient is and when he is being transported. The combination of the unexplained brain CT, inadequate communication about significant diagnostic testing, and the failure to notify me about a major change in discharge transportation has completely destroyed my confidence in this hospital. I will never voluntarily take my husband back to MidHudson Regional Hospital. I am filing a formal complaint and requesting an investigation into these events, including the medical indication for the brain CT, the documentation of "altered mental status," communication with his legal guardian, and the discharge/transportation failure.

To call Barbara my lifesaver, would be selling my endorsement drastically short! I have been seeing…read moreBarbara on and off for nearly two decades. As I progress, so does she; her bag of tools appears to be bottomless. I have been seeking psychiatric care since I was a young teen and have seen both psychiatrists and psychologists, and I can say with confidence that Barbara, as a Clinical Social Worker is superior by all measures in actually helping to provide the tools to navigate through daily life and relationships, and not just provide some framing diagnosis that ultimately becomes the enabling factor that allows for continued unwanted thought processes and behaviors. She has never failed to deliver! I'm not sure how she has the strength to work from the wee hours of the morning until late at night. She must have some type of super-human emotional/physical power, as I feel like she too, feels the pain of her patients. I have referred her to several friends in need of help, and all of them feel the same way about her work. It's like some secret sisterhood when one of us references 'Barbara'. In fact, I came to Barbara, because of a recommendation from my now husband's referral. Barbara is extremely professional, punctual, on task and result oriented. I cannot sing her praises loud enough!

I will admit I was one difficult…read morepatient until I was told "you're my little success story" few weeks later I ended up in the ER for a SA. The doctors there tried getting in touch with him for days. (The doctors there were disgusted by him) He refused to speak with them. Instead when I got out he pushed me onto one of the other doctors there. He never saw me or contacted me again. Then I find out with the new doctor he had diagnosed me "BPD" since the beginning of seeing him. He never told me that. Instead he doped me up with every pill imaginable. As one of the "best" docs in the area he should know BPD isn't treated with meds. I needed DBT therapy which I could have been doing for YEARS. Instead he hid the diagnosis I assume because he wanted make money off my with the meds. I should have known not to go to an office that doesn't accept insurance at all. That's actually terrible. I wish I never saw him. He is a heartless man. Never ever ever see him for any reason. He is a cold man who hides behind his degree because he is probably a grandiose narcissist. He's a fraud. Stay away from this practice. He's a joke.
