I have left a voicemail for the VP of WMC, but I want the public to know how amazing this nurse…read morewas. I am writing this letter as a request to honor and recognize one of the best nurses I have ever encountered. On February 18,2020 I was admitted for a traditional Gastric Bypass. Everything seemed standard until I came out of surgery. Obviously, not knowing what pain to expect I brushed off the feeling I was experiencing as "normal". I was blessed to have a very kindhearted nurse, Sarah Taylor, for the night shift. She was extremely patient and observant of my needs. Little did I know this keen eye to observation would save my life. That night I rang the call bell and was in extreme pain. She rushed in to evaluate me and realized something had become very wrong. I was going in and out, but I remember seeing a ton of nurses and CNAs arrive in my room concerned. Sarah reached out to my surgeon believing I had a leak or was bleeding internally. Both of which are life threatening. Because of her confidence in medical training, she was the main person who ensured my surgeon came back on site and preformed a 2nd emergency surgery. She was able to keep me calm and remained confident during the entire process. I knew coming into this surgery, the risk of death averages around 1:300. I never thought I would fall into that statistic. If it wasn't for her; I may not be here today. I am a mother of 3 little girls and knowing she did everything in her power to keep me here with them means more than I can ever express. It's hard to write this without becoming emotional. Nurses are often overlooked and treated poorly by patients. This is the least I can do to say thank you for her saving me. I will never be able to repay her properly, but I wish to have her honored with the Daisy Award and recognized publicly as an important member of our community. Thank you Amanda Turner

DR. DAVID F. GOLDBERG, MD is an emergency medicine "specialist" in Winchester, VA…read moreThis review is on behalf of my Dad's treatment at the Winchester ER. This Dr. was the one to provide medical care and treatment if need be to my Dad. July 30th he went to the ER with symtoms of dizziness and overall weakness that has been going on for quite sometime. Dad had been to see a doctor that checked his heart. He received a good report where his heart was concerned. He also had a test done to see if he had a carotid artery blockage, that was a good report as well. He went home, glad that these 2 tests were good, but still wondering what could be wrong with him. Now I should say my Dad is almost 85 years old. He has been a "young" 85 year old and very active until this episode. After being checked into the ER he was told he would get a cat scan. He had a cat scan done with contrast. When DR. DAVID F. GOLDBERG, MD came in to examine my Dad, mind you all records were available to the Dr. he told Dad that he just "had a bad heart" (he just had a test all is well with his heart) and that he was "just old," and "that's the reason why he's feeling this way," and he "should not even have come to the ER." When you call your doctor after hours, they tell you if you're having a medical emergency to go to the ER I would consider lightheadedness to the point of passing out a medical emergency. I wonder, did the doctor even look at his cat scans that he had done that day in the ER.? You can imagine how this made us all feel that my Dad was pushed aside in this way. NOW! Monday morning 8/3 Winchester ER called Dad and said he has a blood flow issue in his head. And now needs to see a Vascular Surgery group to see what needs to be done from here. There are some very nice and caring doctors in Winchester ER. but DR. DAVID F. GOLDBERG, MD is not one of them. His lack of empathy is unbelievable! I don't care how much education or qualification you have, the most important thing is the care and concern of your patients to make them feel heard and safe. DAVID F. GOLDBERG,MD showed my Dad none of this and shewed him out like he was of no importance. DAVID F. GOLDBERG,MD you should be ashamed. You have no business treating patients. I think you'd be better served in a lab or somewhere where you have no contact with patients. And the only reason I left one star, is because I had to leave a star to be able to post this review.

The staff at his office have been wonderful. Post surgery I had to stay at the hospital for 4 days while the pain and vitals were managed as well as the supplies I needed (have to have a vac on my back) arrived and post-surgical care (have to have my dressing changed 3x weekly) was set up. While at the hospital the nurses, CNAs, techs, dietitian, and staff were incredibly great!! They definitely took care of me and treated me with respect, kindness, and professionalism. Hospital visits and stays are never fun and no one likes to be there so how you're treated during a vulnerable and unpleasant time makes a huge difference!! Everyone was very thoughtful, didn't experience any disrespect nor rudeness. Yes, there are different cultures and personalities, but I was very happy with how they took care of me during this painful and uncomfortable time. Thank you all!!

The Dr's and nurses are fantastic. I've had a few issues with their administration team- with the…read morereferrals not being transferred in a timely manner and having to cancel appointments. Note to others who are reliant on referrals- call to check that the referral is there before you go!

I went there as an ER patient and I had a long wait until a…read morenurse came to do the preliminary exam, either because the place is understaffed and just stupidly run. I called for a drink of water and never got it. Eventually, a doctor came to see me, told me I could leave, but did not remove my IV. I asked a nurse if she would remove it. She said no. I proposed to remove it myself, she threatened to call the police. Supposedly, drug addicts remove the IV for illegal use. I am 78, I have never used illegal drugs. My record is pristine. It was insulting to be lumped with lawbreakers. After making six calls for help, I should have called the police because I was being held against my wishes. An irate nurse materialized after the seventh call. She told me off for expecting service, informed me that I was not her only patient, and generally acted in an abusive and unprofessional way. I've called the patient's advocated twice to register a complaint. I don't expect a response. I will just forward this review to my lawyer. I'd give this place a Zero rating, if it were available.

My primary to told me to come here ASAP. The checkin area didn't care what I was here for as the cut me off when I tried to explain but they just wanted my name and DOB to put on a sticker. After sitting for an hour they called me back to get my vitals but don't seem to care what my problem is either. I was literally in the middle of explaining how I feel and happening to me and the lady just cut me off and started asking me there check box questions like do you feel safe at home, do feel suicidal, what medications, then was just like go back out and sit and someone will come get you. 45min and still sitting. Glad I'm not having a stroke or heart attack. They treat you like a box on a conveyor belt that needs scanned and that's all.... don't come here! Update: after sitting the ER waiting room for almost 4 hours, I went to the front desk to ask a question. I let them know I was here because my doctor wanted me monitored In case I had a stroke or heart attack. Their response was sorry we are busy and we don't know when we can get to you and that I could just leave if I wanted... how is this place not shut down.

Immediate triage and into a private exam room pretty quickly. A real exam space, not sheets hanging between beds! Like clockwork on blood, scheduling image, getting blood drawn, results back, medical decision and seeing the doctor. Accurate diagnosis. Longest wait was getting into my room upstairs, however, the noise level in their exam area was the calmest, quietest I've ever experienced so I slept on their comfortable exam bed until I got my room at 3 am. Every person was professional, courteous, friendly, upbeat, and truly cared about my comfort and medical care. Very surprised and happy to get a huge single room to myself!! It's in the new wing. Really helped my recovery. Hardly heard any hallway noise or talking the whole stay! The helicopter even landed on the roof outside my window and I didn't even hear it! The bed was sooooo comfortable! No tossing and turning through the night also helped my recovery. No unnecessary, annoying visits for vitals or procedures. The nurses and staff were very considerate and met and anticipated all my needs. Comfort and quality of care were well attended to even though they were very busy. They never rushed my care. If I needed pain medication they made sure I got it. (Thank you!) At surgery time the only delay was waiting for the anesthesiologist. Everyone else was like a well oiled machine. However, the anesthesiologist was very knowledgeable, experienced, and thorough. I woke in recovery and was alert and functional. Food was good for being in the hospital. Menu and a la cart choices were provided so after the first day I got to pick exactly what I wanted to eat and drink. It always came up fresh with hot and cold appropriate temps. Remember to include any condiments ahead of time. It's not a restaurant. The kitchen staff were friendly, helpful, and eager to meet all my needs. The only area that could be attended to better was keeping my wall board up to date. It wasn't always done spontaneously by the staff, sometimes had to request as the information changed, and I think that is very important to avoid mistakes in medication, treatment updates, oral intake and restrictions, and who is treating me. The hospital was very full though, so I feel the nurses and staff did an awesome job!!
