My Grandmother is on a very serious floor the 6th floor. This floor have people with damage kidneys , cancer & more. My Grandmother ( And lot of other patients 2 ) cant walk or stand very well ( they have high risk of falling) so she had to use the bedpan & when she needs help she have to ring the bell. When you ring the bell for help the nurses take FOREVER to answer more than 5 minutes I know one time I counted it was 12 minutes. I understand their busy and have a lot of patients to take care of but majority of the time the nurses be talking and laughing with each other in the hallway. Yesterday afternoon August 31,2016 My grandmother needed to use the bedpan ( the bathroom) she rung the bell and asked my mother to pass her the bedpan so when the nurse come she could have everything ready. No nurse came so my mother stood in the hallway to stop the nurse . So the nurse put my grandmother on the bedpan and left so my grandmother could use the bathroom. When she was done my grandmother needed the nurse again so she rung the bell nobody came. Me and my mother was waiting in the hallway to stop the nurse again nobody still didnt come. So my mother had to go to the nurse station the clerk told the nurse that 603 needed assistance. Couple minutes went past Nobody still didnt come so once again we went to the nurse station again. While me and my mother was standing by the nurse station ( you could see the room my grandmother was in ) we seen a nurse finally go in the room . Guess what the nurse did ? Went in the room cut off the call & left without asking my grandmother what she wanted. So again me & my mother went to the nurse station and told what had happened so the Clerk had to do the rest because she couldnt find the nurse. Then later last night my grandmother needed to use the bathroom she got pre pared again my mother got the bedpan out so when the nurse come my grandmother have everything ready. We waited so long my grandmother used the bathroom on herself. But the night ended well around 9:00 that night we had a good nurse I forgot his name but I know it start with a M. He answered quickly and did his job very well. I wish we had him all day because those day time workers dont be doing their job correctly.

I have had experiences with 3 different hospitals and I personally do not care what no one say Suny Downstate is the best, i will agree that there are a couple staff members who works there who need more training in learning to deal with patience because i have seen them in action, but personally i never had any problems with any of them. to be blunt God used the Doctors, Nurses and staffs at Downstate to save my life when i had originally gone to another more famous hospital that never to forget night on July 6,2002 send me home in severe abdominal pain to go see my GYN without running or doing any test. oh they did give me Motrin. only to finally make it to my GYN who did a sonogram at the time and said i need to go to the ER Urgently, i went to Downstate for the first time and they Had to do an emergency surgery to save my life because of the other Hospital negligence my Colon Burst, and i had to have many, many surgeries after that day and all Downstate, so to all listening, this facility by the grace of God will remain open.......

Downstate hospital is the reason why Im alive today. I understand everyones experience isnt the same yes all hospitals have a few bad seeds yet, Ive been blessed to fall into the hands of a team of phenomenal doctors, Doctor Pertell, Dr. Burack,Dr. Diminus, Dr. Lasar Dr. Rebeck and a host of very great specialist that not only made sure my surgery was successful they called checked up on me. . Stood by my bedside and because of their interest in my health I stand today as a survivor of lung cancer. .. I believe in prayer I prayed for the best god could deliver and my prayers were answered! ..... we as patients have to find the doctors that work for us. . So I give the doctors whom handled my care 5 stars. .. may God bless you all.. remember in order to find the doctor suitable for you one must do research and pray as well have patience. .. have a awesome day.

Do not go here. I went here for my prenatel visits and gave birth here. The doctor had the nerves to send me home while I was in labor. Came back like 3 hours later and gave birth shortly. They placed my daughter in the bassinett, cleaned her off and did wut ever they had to do and put her in the nursery without letting me breast feed or see her. The overnight nurses are rude, front desk staff in suite G are rude and the doctor had the nerve to tell me if I feel like I need to push then push when I asked if I should push when I was in labor. Also, I was not wheeled chair out when I was discharged. Either they need to shut this place down or get a whole new staff. They are very slow and dont care about the patients. I know I am the only one that ever complained and probably will be because many ppl are afraid to speak up.

Went to emergency room with something stuck in my system (No need to go in full detail) After spending a number of hours with doctors going over and over my dilemma l was discharged with item still in me. They said it probably came out. Still today years later item still in me. Doctors say just leave it there now. They were shocked that Downstate never scanned me. And to top it off Downstate put in my medical records in CODE that l was some kook. So if I go to emergency rooms in other hospitals around city Downstate slander towards me follow me. But there is NOTHING in there CODE with there incompetent service towards me. If you end up at Downstate bring your LAWYER.
