    If you need to have surgery and want the finest medical care, you will want to come to the Milstein Hospital at Columbia Presbyterian Hospital. One of my relatives recently had surgery and spent a few days as a patient. She had a gorgeous view overlooking the Hudson River and the George Washington Bridge. Her surgeon was considered one of the best in his field and the nursing care was excellent!

    My very good friend was hospitalized in the Garden Wing of the Milstein Building for a week, where I visited him almost daily. From everything I saw and in his opinion as well, he received excellent care and attention in a highly comfortable and professional environment with ample meals and knowledgeable medical staff. Special shout out and much appreciation to Arthur on the 7th floor—an awesome staff member who really went above and beyond to be kind, helpful and accommodating~ Thanks from Kelly and Vaughn!💗

    Only 1 star because of the wait (27 hr) that it took from the ER to get an actual bedroom. The staff and technicians are five star but you can't rate the workers!!!!!!! Also this hospital isn't for common issues such as cold/flu or cuts and bruises more of a major issue kind of place.... Think of issues like diabetes for transfusions or cancer like radiation. They treat both adults and children and offer tons of help for the patients on site. The issue is it takes forever to get a room due to the large influx of patients who shouldn't be there because they don't need to ( and should be thankful) be because they don't have the ailments deemed necessary for the purpose of this Hospital.

    Columbia University Irving Medical Center's Milstein Hospital Building is really lovely - the lobby is clean, well-kept, and administratively seems relatively organized in regard to patient check-in. There is a Starbucks conveniently located within this area, as well as a nicely-sized gift shop with lots of items available for selection!

Also an added bonus, statbucks!. Today i bought the star fruit kiwi tea with coconut milk. Also with an added bonus of bantam bagels.

    I know the hospital has good Doctors that’s what gets five stars. Unfortunately the bathrooms on the 2nd floor really were not clean. I think more attention to such a frequently used restroom should be addressed.

    I've had a couple of surgery procedures here. The Nurses are great and the Doctors are the best of the best. Hospital is part of New York Presbyterian which has been rated as the #1 hospital in New York state for 22 years in a row. I've seen patients come here from other states and countries

    As a Family, we are basing our review on lack of disclosure and advice that we didn’t get in order to make the right decision for our loved one. Our loved one was mostly in 7 Garden South and 7 Garden North plus the ER from 12/01-12/04/2022. Then admitted till 12/09/2022 and treated for Pseudo Obstruction (They kept giving her laxatives which caused her stomach to permanently inflate and permanently balloon. She only weighed 83 pounds). Then from 12/13/2022 till 12/15/2022 back in the ER then admitted till 12/22/2022. Poor advice to discharge on 12/09/2022 - Kyle David Kylas signed off on paperwork to Isabella Nursing Home (for physical therapy that never happened. Only one evaluation). Then back to the ER on 12/13/2022 due to Aspiration Pneumonia Dysphagia. The nursing home claiming that she also had Covid19, but family members present never witnessing swabs being used for testing. Hospital would not retest her. None of us got Covid19 the entire time being with her day and night. Nor after final discharge. Explain! We were not comfortable with Male Nurses cleaning our Female loved one. Her cardiologist, Dr. Gregg Rosner, stopped her Hypertension meds as well as her medication for her Mitre valve leak for 3 weeks between and before admission. Jennifer (his physician assistant always took my call and she came once to the ER). Her Primary Care Physician, Dr. Asqual Getaneh - not once visited her or checked on her). We still have all of the pictures we took of her daily monitor readings which showed blood pressure being elevated and high during her entire stay. Some were administered when her BP was very high. He supposedly visited early morning, but we never saw him. Morgan Smith was one of the attendee physicians that was pushing procedures and possible surgery for an 89 year old! NOT! Robie was the only great Nurse we had! The hospital has collected $149,798.10 from the medical insurance and they are still trying to collect $3,600 from the patient’s widower for such poor care. She was discharged on 12/22/2022. She passed on Christmas Day - 12/25/2022.

    Lovely building, clean, updated. The line for visiting is a bit long (if you have an appointment you go thru after a quick security check). Be sure to have your vax card (or proof of negative COVID test) and ID, ready--it makes everything quicker for everyone.

    My partner was in this hospital for close to a month. We spent our anniversary, her birthday and thanksgiving in the Milstein Hospital. We have had some really crappy experiences in other hospitals but every single day here was delightful. Thou we were going through one of the roughest times in our journey of life together, our stress level was through the roof. We worried, we cried. The doctors and staff were amazingly beautiful. So caring, our voice/needs were heard and met. Full of warm and patient personalities. We almost did not want to part ways. What we experienced was what I call the TRUE meaning of a family. We would recommend anyone amd everyone near and far to go to NY Presbyterian Hospital.

    This was probably one of the worst hospital experiences that I have ever encountered. Staff not wearing masks and my vaccinated father who had a booster shot as well contracted COVID and they wanted to send him home!!! I would give this place one star if I could. Very disappointed in Columbia Pres because they are supposed to be one of the best hospitals. Staff is incompetent and won't do their jobs. Bureaucracy keeps them from doing anything right. NEVER get to speak to the doctors on call. Give you the stink eye when you come in to check in on your loved ones. They also sent him home with none of his clothes and we had to go to security to get them back. Terrible.

    Big thank you to Raya the PA on the cardiac recovery floor. She was professional, compassionate, willing to listen and did an excellent job with my mom. Dr. Brogno did her cardiac catheterization surgery and he was wonderful to work with.

    Dr. Vadia(unsure if the spelling is correct) from dermatology is so rude. She lacks basic communication skills. Terrible service.

  • 1/5 Bernabe G. 3 months ago on Google • 21 reviews New
    The service at first is good but then they make you wait too long. I understand that there are a lot of patients but they have a mess and also believing that they would help us but everything was worse. They cared more about the holidays than about keeping an eye on the person who was bedridden but at the same time In the end they did not help us and in the end my partner died in that hospital. I recommend that you better go somewhere else. This hospital did nothing for the patient. Furthermore, they do not care about the pain you have when you see your partner lying in bed and they not doing their job. think very carefully before setting foot in this hospital

    It is better to stay at the ER, they bring a person with a heart condition here and let him alone for like 5 hours and no one came.

  • 1/5 Arlene M. 1 year ago on Google
    My husband stayed on 6th floor in room 148, Hudson North on June 13th 2022. The bedroom was in a deplorable condition, garbage bin was flowing over , plates piled up, floors filthy, bathroom was beyond deplorable. I rate it a one star because there’s no zero. How can sick people be treated in such demeaning fashion??
