Ronald O. Perelman Center for Emergency Services - New York (NY)

5 /5 Katie: Amazing emergency room! I came here to NYC for business and ended up with horrible back and abdominal pains. I had to go to this emergency room at 3:30 in the morning on a Saturday morning, and they got me right in to a bed. Everyone was so friendly from the person who checked me in, to Juliette, the nurse who brought me back to my room, to Lucy the nurse who gave me my IV, to the physician assistant and the doctor and Cat scan technicians. I live in Houston where we apparently have the best medical center but I never have received the amount of care and compassion as I did here at NYU Langone. I love that they send you all lab reports and test results right through the portal! I would recommend this hospital to anyone and everyone. While I obviously hope I never have to return to the emergency room, if I had to, NYU Langone would be the place to go!

5 /5 Tara: Went in this morning at 1AM with a piercing chest pain. I checked online and it said the wait to be seen was 8 mins. I was in a room and seen in 5. It was relatively empty in the respiratory area where I was bedded. The doctor ran several blood tests to rule out blood clots, multiple EKGs to rule out heart attack and a chest x-ray to make sure my heart wasn’t enlarged or visibly destressed. The nurses (Dana especially), the PA (Jason) and the doctor (Dr Cheng) were incredibly kind, friendly and hospitable. I live much further uptown but wanted to go to an ER that I knew wouldn’t have me sitting there waiting just to be seen for hours, unnecessarily. Hopefully I never have an emergency like this again but if I do I will come here. Turned out to be a pinch nerve.
