    While I have tried several times bringing awareness to this situation before posting, I don't feel…read morethey're taking it seriously and I received the usual brush off from everyone I contacted. So now I'll go this route instead as a precaution to others who visit this Emergency room with head/brain issues. On 8/7/23 I was transported to the ER by ambulance. I had very sudden extreme pain in my head along with complete right eye blindness, severe neck pain, vomiting, and confusion. Once staff spoke to the EMT's that transferred me and getting only half my issues and symptoms, the nurses and doctors took it upon themselves to diagnose me with a migraine, like the EMTs had stated, without any tests or scans and only checking with EMTs for symptoms. They spoke to me asked me a couple questions and left me in a dark room dazed and confused. Once they spoke to my husband and he advocated this was in fact not a typical migraine and that I had gone completely blind in one eye, he stated we were NOT leaving without a scan to find out what was going on in my brain. Doctors finally ordered the scan only to find out I had a ruptured brain aneurysm, also known as hemorrhagic stroke. I was bleeding in my brain and it was on the verge of taking my life. Unfortunately this is not the only time this has happened. My Mother was also transported to this ER after collapsing at home several years ago and while they spent several hours testing her heart, they didn't scan her head for several hours and she also had a ruptured brain aneurysm that they failed to diagnose for hours. Unfortunately my Mom wasn't able to survive her rupture and passed away hours later. The reason I'm writing this is because this ER and many others do not recognize Hemorrhagic stroke symptoms! They play guessing games with matters that affect your brain instead of ordering the scans needed to diagnose these issues quickly. More education of hemorrhagic stroke symptoms need to be implemented and their medical staff need to order the necessary scans to detect such issues. If you arrive at this emergency room with unusual head/brain issues, or any of the hemorrhagic stroke symptoms advocate for yourself to get a scan!!! Unfortunately I've learned the hard way we have to educate ourselves because we can't rely on this ER to recognize or help us in that area.

    I was very angry and saddened by the experience my son and I had when he visited the ER on…read moreWednesday, February 5, 2025. It was frustrating and stressful for both of us, especially with my son being unwell and I was 3 hours away. It's important that patients and their families feel respected and cared for, especially in such a vulnerable situation. I asked that the situation be reviewed, including the doctor's conduct and the medical notes, and ensure that our concerns are addressed appropriately. Irrelevant and inappropriate comments should not be written in medical notes. Medical professionals should focus on the symptoms that are relevant to the case at hand, and everything should be documented in a neutral and professional manner. It's crucial to hold healthcare providers accountable for treating ALL people with respect and professionalism. People should be heard and feel safe when experiencing health issues! The ER doctor was Lauren Casey and she was rude, unprofessional and short with me when I asked questions about my son's care. I will say that the only thing she did correctly was performing the test that she ordered for him. Other than that she liked professionalism, Empathy and respect. Before I arrived to the hospital, my son said that most if not all the staff was rude to him. Customer service is vital and obviously these people that were there and treated my son knew nothing about good customer service skills. They should be held accountable and trained to treat people in a better manner.

    I have been a patient of Dr. Halperin's for more than 17 years. He is always patient, spends as…read moremuch time with me as possible and has never rushed or made me feel like an inconvenience, as many docs in the Bloom/Norm area do. He's always been a caring person. I initially resisted going on a medication, and he bargained with me - if I didn't see results, he'd agree I shouldn't be on it and we'd look for other alternatives I took his word and I saw immediate positive results. I was wrong. He always listens to what I have to say, and I feel like he's a partner in my health, not just an authority telling me what to do. He works with me. I was so confident with him, that I brought my aging mother to him, and he was the only doctor that could ever get my mother to take her meds, and take better care of herself. He was sweet, kind and caring. I can't say enough good things about Dr. Ira Halperin. I've never been with one doctor, this long in my life.

    Awful little man! Terrible with patients, is rude and condescending. Suffers from little man…read morecomplex. My mom went to him and he immediately started messing with the medication she was on without even seeing her or speaking to her. They put her in a patient room and he worked through a nurse. Refused to talk to her when she questioned him and told her "to just deal with it" and "this is not up for negotiation" all transferred through the nurse. DO NOT see this doctor if you value your health. Another person we know went to him with a non-healing wound and first thing he said was that it needed to be amputated! I'm happy to say they sought a second opinion. My mom has also changed doctors.
