Hello my name is Terry Frary and my wife had surgery in this hospital August 8th ,2016. Her Doctor was Dane Larson. A very kind and generous compassionate man. Easy to talk to and you can see he listens and replies using words instead of a nonchalant nod or elusive smile. We met Diane, Sally , Mary , Laura, Linda, Tara , and the anesthesiologist with a beautiful accent and wide brown expressive yes and gentle demeanor . There was a Jason who was the brightest light as far as making a person laugh and relax and forget about themselves. [ coffee Jason ] Everyone played an instrumental part in my wife's comfort as well as our family and friends.. My wife could not stop talking about the main entrance where she listened to a woman playing the piano and what a lovely woman she is and how marvelously she played. Next she raved about how spotless the bathrooms are and how the floors are so neat and also went on to say how there was no dirt build up in the corners or along the floor and wall line on the bottom . She sees everything . She marveled at the cleanliness of the rooms and the OR and ER and Blood Labs She could not believe how CLEAN and SO PROFESSIONAL it was . She immediately felt welcomed and safe in such a clean environment .. The cafeteria was also so very clean .. We only wish more hospitals and restaurants would take notice of EXCELLENCE and PROFESSIONALISM and follow this example. When an establishment cares this much then you know automatically that you are in the right place ... BTW her surgery went well as expected and she required no pain meds nor a script to go . She was in surgery for one hour and one half and still the Dr was gentle enough where again she required not one single pain shot or pill ........ I cannot stop hearing my wife say again and again that PROFESSIONALISM LIES IN PLATTSBURGH and my whole family thank you all for not even the smallest detail is insignificant in maintaining EXCELLENCE and PROFESSIONALISM !!
I visited the c.v.p.h. emergency room on 5/2/2016 , the staff was very efficient on collecting insurance information ,but. that is where the good service ended . I cannot imagine where they dug up the nit-wit "Doctor" who provided my care ,if one could call it that,on the other hand the nursing staff provided very good care considering how grossly understaffed they are.for whatever reason there was a women in a bright red short dress and heels who strongly resembled a two dollar hooker constantly roving through the E.R. I cannot imagine what her function was and was unable to get a look at her name tag to discern her post. So if God forbid you should fall ill ,try to make it to Burlington or Boston if you are seeking Medical attention AVOID C.V.P.H. AT ALL COST
I have really no words . I wouldn't give this one star if it didn't force me to . The er is a dangerous place the lake chaplain obgyn is dangerous THEY LOST RECORDS AND WITH VITAL INFORMATION INSIDE . Avoid this place all together. Had a blood clot in my lung , my primary called in advance to the er I was on my way via ambulance. That was at 130 pm , 8pm I was discharging myself I went to Burlington. thank God I made that choice . They also broke the hippa law in the family room , BY READING MY CHART OUT LOUD FOR EVERYONE TO HEAR THAT HAD NO BUSINESS KNOWING ANYTHING ABOUT ME. CVPH IS A DISASTROUS PLACE PLEASE DO NOT GO THERE FOR ANYTHING. I'm surprised they are still in business. LAKE CHAMPLIAN OBGYN IS ALSO DANGEROUS, THE FRONT DESK SECRETARY'S ARE A JOKE , THEY CAN'T SCHEDULE TO SAVE THEIR LIVES . ALSO THEY ARE RUDE AND NOT JUST A SLIDE TYPE, BUT DOWN RIGHT RUDE UNEDUCATED IDIOTS . THE BLONDE SECRETARY IS THE ONLY WHO CARES , DR HAMMEL IS A GOOD DR , BUT ONE GOOD DR IS NOT ENOUGH TO SURPASS THE REST OF THE UN PROFESSIONALS. I've lived all over the country and never seen such a dangerous hospital. I will be reporting this hospital to the, new York state medical board. They need baby sitters .
Have doctor burns , to delivery , very not gentle practitioner , my contraction hurts very mich wich contracts my muscles , but doctor does a very intrusively brutal cervix check wich is not suitable for the soon to be mother due to efforts of her body already. Poor knowledge of tenderness and mistaken a condition to another . Now Dr has to be very careful since they are taking care of people lives
If the ability to not give any stars were an option, that is exactly what I would give the Emergency Unit of this hospital. My Mom went in after a face first fall on a concrete sidewalk. The ER doctor took x-rays and confirmed that she had broken her jaw in 2 places and needed stiches. They then told her that due to the nature of the breaks there was nothing further they could do and that she would need to heal on her own, but they recommended she see the plastic surgeon on Monday. What a HUGE disappointment she had when the plastic surgeon informed her 3 DAYS later that she should have been admitted for immediate surgery. As a result of her injuries, said he had to have 2 plates and 26 screws inserted into her jaw to begin the healing process as well as have her jaw wired shut for three weeks. I am not from that area (I live out of state), but if I were on my death bed, I would STILL request to be transferred to Burlington or Albany for treatment.
UPDATE June 21 2016 ,, my brother in law fell if a roof and went to cvph . Cvph had givin him an x-ray of his knee they said all was ok besides a very bad knee sprain. They most of not looked close enough because his knee was broken. His primary instructed him never to go to cvph in plattsburgh again.
