very short time .like walking clinic. Receptionist are very helpful.lots of patients came every day…read morehere .

I went there for a COVID-19 PCR swab a few weeks ago during the height of the Omicron COVID-19…read moresurge in late December 2021. On the outside of the facility, it clearly states that COVID-19 PCR tests are free! I filled out paperwork, the staff copied my photo ID and insurance card. I asked "why are you taking a copy of my insurance card when the tests are free?" The staff couldn't give me an answer. I did the COVID-19 PCR swab within 2 minutes, then before I left, the staff notified me that the results would be ready in 3 days. Fast forward to January 2022, I receive an explanation of benefits from my insurance company stating that Dr. A Chaudhury, and NYC Docs billed my insurance $400 doctors for a visit that never happened. My insurance wants me to pay $350. All I did was a COVID-19 swab, a quick walk-in service that is advertised for free. I never saw a doctor!!! I also received another Explanation of Benefits for the lab that NYC Docs uses, which is called Lincoln Labs that is located in Elizabeth, New Jersey! The lab charged my insurance $560 and I'm expected to pay $470 out of pocket! This is a absurd I never filled out a patient responsibility payment form, disclosing that my insurance will be charged for an out of network doctors visit that never happened, or use a lab that is also out of network from my insurance, that is located in New Jersey, a state I don't live in. I live in the neighborhood, and I live in the Bronx, New York. What is also absurd is that they advertise clearly outside if NYC Docs that COVID-19 PCR test are free, but the facility is billing the insurance of all of the patients that come in for swabs! I went into the office also in January 2022, and staff took my information after I complained of the charges billed to my insurance. I spoke to the head doctor, a receptionist, and a biller. I also sent the information by email and was assured my issue would be handled, and it's now February and no one has gotten back to me. I have now called the NY State department of health to complain about insurance fraud and to start an investigation of the shady business practices from their facility and the lab that they use. I have also have called the fraud department of my insurance company to start an investigation. Don't advertise a free service such as a COVID-19 test and bill someone's insurance thousands of dollars for something that is supposed to be free. And don't bill for a doctors visit when it never happened.

I went to the ER last night because of intense back & abdominal pain. I was concerned about having…read morea possible kidney infection given the location of the pain. I spent a total of 3 hours at the ER, which is not bad. I've had to wait double or triple that amount of time in other ERs. However, there were some things that I didn't like during my visit and I figured I'd share them so those of you reading reviews can know what to expect. 1. When you go in, you see a greeter who verifies your info and has you electronically sign paperwork that you are never shown. I am a former patient so I didn't make a big deal but if I was someone who was going to Montefiore for the first time, I would want to know what I am signing. 2. I had to see 2 triage nurses and the set up is strange. There is an initial triage area that is just a desk next to the greeters. Your vitals are taken and you discuss the reason for your visit...in an open area within the waiting area/room where people can hear what you're saying. As a health practitioner, I know that this lack of privacy is a violation of HIPAA standards. After you see that first nurse in the waiting area, you have to be called by another nurse into the Main Triage who asks you the same information and takes your medical history. I don't understand why there was a need to split the triage the way that they did. Seems to waste time, in my opinion. 3. The first triage nurse asked me to provide a urine sample and give it to the following technician. I probably held onto that sample for almost an hour. The second triage nurse didn't take it and when I was brought into what I'm assuming is the fast track area, I had to wait for a nurse to collect it. That didn't happen till after I saw the physician. Throughout my time there, I was asked to provide a urine sample 3x by 3 different nurses, in which I had to remind them that I had already given the sample in for testing. That shows me that there is a serious lack of communication. I waited about an hour for the results of my bloodwork and urine analysis, which I expected. 4. A nurse approached me to tell me that she was going to give me a painkiller via injection. I had to ask her what she was giving me. I've encountered this at other ERs as well. You should always inform your patient as to what specific medication you're giving them. I shouldn't have to ask you. Huge pet peeve of mine. I don't recall being asked about allergies to medication either. 5. Thankfully, my results didn't provide any indication of a kidney infection but I'm still in pain. The physician told me to come back if the pain doesn't resolve or gets worse in a few days. I'm disappointed that he didn't order an ultrasound for my abdominal region. I didn't press the issue (I should have) because I just wanted to get out of there after hearing patients screaming in pain (and being ignored) in the ER for an hour. Despite my list of dislikes, I did have a better experience compared to other ERs (e.g. Jacobi). Everyone I interacted with was polite and pleasant. Just know your rights as a patient and advocate for yourself if you need to.

Highly dissatisfied with this hospital, if I could give zero stars I would. When my grandmother was…read morealive she praised this hospital on how good they were so when I found out I was pregnant I didn't think twice. The worst experience any pregnant woman can ever have. PLEASE DO NOT GIVE BIRTH HERE! For my 37 week scan I was told my daughter was breeched. The sonography said i can leave instead of scheduling me to speak to the OB/GYN. When I went to see my regular dr she was upset about that as the doctor onsite should have given me options. Fast forward a week and my water breaks, I call the hospital because I know my daughters breeched and they said to go immediately as it's an emergency. I arrive and I'm placed in a small room. The resident tells me I need a c-section. There were no other options given to me at all. Once in the operating room as a first timer all the people in there made me feel so small as if I didn't matter. No interaction it felt more like a transaction. I asked for delayed cord clamping which I'm pretty sure didn't happen. My daughter wasn't placed on my chest until after we left the surgery room. Once given my own room the experience just became worse. I was given 1 bag of diapers and 1 pack of wipes. Obviously this wouldn't have been enough for my stay. I asked for more wipes and was told to wet the gauze. When I asked for more diapers I was given 3, I kid you not, I was happy to be discharged that day. When asking for milk as I was barely lactating I was given 2-3 little milks. The nurses were not friendly. There was only 1 that was a little more attentive to my needs but barely. When I was allowed to leave after 2 days I was told to take my child to the pediatrician the next day for blood work as she had jaundice and had phototherapy at the hospital which was another issue. I went to my pediatrician who said they don't do that kind of blood work and that they have told the hospital that many times. So I end up having to go back to the hospital the following day, mind you I had major surgery (c-section). They did the blood work but first checked the records for the doctor because they needed a request form which I didn't have. That doctor said he wasn't my doctor. I'm not making this sh*t up, I wish I was. The worst experience ever! Oh back to the phototherapy the baby needed, my daughter would cry because she was hungry or for diaper change. I would take her out, at one point the nurse scolded me for doing so. I had to tell her I'm not gonna let my daughter cry just because they said so, she needs to eat. Please think twice before going to this hospital. I want nothing to do with them. Never ever!
