Terrible. If I could give it 0 stars I would. There are better hospitals in the area.

Staff at the OR today were all very friendly, helpful, and kept me updated while my niece was in surgery. Very organized OR support team. Thanks!

Medical itself may be fine, but I can only recommend MedStar if you are prepared for Predatory and borderline fraudulent billing practices, rude scheduling nurses, no continuity of care. It is not a good sign that when you call their billing office, there is a special extension on the phone tree for lawyers who want billing details.

DO. NOT. COME. TO. THIS. HOSPITAL. I rarely ever write reviews, but my experience at this hospital was so poor that I have to write this review to encourage people not to come here. My girlfriend is chronically ill and we arrived at the emergency room for a severe kidney infection. The ER, surprisingly, was the most positive experience we had here. She was admitted and that is when everything went downhill. She has been admitted for two days now, and they still have no idea what is causing this infection. They are sending her home today and we were told, verbatim, “we do not know what is causing this and you won’t get the full picture here.” Are you serious? Is that not the point of the hospital? Additionally, my girlfriend’s tolerance for pain medication is higher than most, given her battle with chronic pain. They have asserted many times that “a kidney infection should not cause this much pain and require this much medication.” We provided the contact of her pain management specialist to verify her pain medication regime and they still have yet to call. They are discharging her today, not sending her home with any medications to manage her pain, all while still trying to figure out what’s going on (still waiting for final CULTURE results and they are still wanting to send her home). I am utterly disgusted with the treatment we received here and I cannot wait to leave this place!

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Ask the charge nurse on the floor your family member is on about the parking discount for family members, the sparse parking is due to construction of a new building which will add an additional parking lot

The drive-in entrance is Entrance 2, also known as the Emergency Room entrance. The entrance to the outpatient surgical sign-in and waiting room is to the left of the Emergency Department entrance. From there, once check-in is complete, the staff will take the patient to the area that your particular outpatient surgery will be accomplished.
