Everything went great except, the birth certificate was wrong, as it showed my son as being a girl and the date was wrong. The nursing staff and the maternity ward were excellent. They are truly patient centered. The doctors just made their rounds. Their bedside manner and communication skills weren't as good as the nurses. The staff was brilliant, but, the administration left a bad taste in our mouths with the birth certificate. We still have to get that straightened out. I give the nurses and staff the highest ratings, as for the doctors and administration, it is not so good. We would go back in the future, though.
Description of Work: We just had our son there.

Of all the hospitals my wife has been in, she thought IU West was the best. She thought the food was great, and the nurses were friendly and helpful. She had a very good experience there. I would highly rate this hospital, and use them again if need be.

Bridget is an excellent surgeon. My husband is often her anethesiologist & he ranks her #1 in blood loss, surgery effiency & her attention to detail. Bridget performed a laproscopy on me & also performed an in-office minor surgery. Both experiences were wonderful. Bridget is a Christian, and brings her faith into the office. She has prayed with (and for) me & she is so loving & caring. I will be very sad when she moves to Africa to do her mission work.
Description of Work: Bridget has been my OB/GYN for several years. My primary experience has been GYN services, as I've never been pregnant. This past year, Bridget did two different surgeries w/ me -- mainly related to pain & infertility.

I was misdiagnosed by a doctor in my town and finally went to Indianapolis. This doctor listened to exactly what I had to say. He was very competent, patient, and talked about the diagnosis. He put me on pills and they work quite well. I have nothing but good things to say about him.
Description of Work: I went to him for a very minor seizure disorder.

We saw Dr. Fritsch to test my husband's hearing. There was nothing at all to dislike about the visit. He was prompt, professional and courteous. I think that he is very qualified and would recommend him. We will be going back to him if we need any other treatment.

I am overall satisfied with IU Health North Hospital. It is like a five star hotel. Every floor has a receptionist. Security is great. Everyone is friendly. It felt almost like a home as I was back and forth to the NICU for two months.

My mother passed away last week. She did an extraordinary job with my mom and keeping her family involved. She made us comfortable and made adjustments through her stages of cancer. The office staff became like family to my mom. It is a hot spot and the punctuality was good. I took her so many times to the doctor. My mom was treated and she was cured of her lung cancer. Then 2 years later some came back and my mom decided not to do any additional treatment. It was her decision and the staff made sure she understood all the factors involved with that decision. They made arrangements to treat all symptoms that arose which didn’t arrive 9 months after that. 10 weeks later she passed. My mom was cured but my mom continued to use the risk factors and that is why it came back. The treatment was effective. We didn’t have any issues and any problems that we had was dealt with promptly.

Dr. Jones and my surgeon saved my life. Because of early detection, aggressive treatment, and his clearly explaining to me what my options were and continue to be today, I am completely cancer free. I would recommend ANYONE who is diagnosed with cancer to see Dr. Jones prior to making decisions about treatment. I owe him and my surgeon my life.
Description of Work: In June of 2011 I felt a lump in my left breast and immediately had a diagnostic mammogram. After a biopsy and initial lumpectomy, I was diagnosed with two types of cancer in my left breast. Dr. Jones was very kind and compassionate, explaining my options clearly and making sure I understood that I was in control of the decisions that had to be made. He advocated for me with my surgeon for a complete mastectomy when my surgeon wanted to do a second lumpectomy.

Overall I would never use this doctor again, even if he were covered by my insurance due to his apparently exhorbinanly high rates compared to the average for my area. I do not mind paying even twice the average because I know that some doctors have higher overhead costs than others, but I refuse to believe that 7 times the average is a justified cost.
Description of Work: I was forced to use this doctor when the hosiptal I went to (Community South) sent out my daughter's Echocardiogram to be read. I paid the hospital for use of the facility, use of the Echo machine, and for the technician's time who took the Echo. I later got a huge bill from the doctor for just reading the Echo. I found out from my Insurance company (this doctor is out of my network, so I'm paying out of pocket) that his charges for reading the Echo are almost 7 times (6.9 times to be exact) higher than the Central Indiana average for the exact same service (yes, I checked to make sure the exact type of Echo was being averaged, not just all Echos).

I will be going back to him for a follow-up. He is competent. I had a little trouble getting back on him. I have seen him in the emergency room, and inpatient at the hospital, when I went in get an appointment. He is a very busy man. He is available, not always when I exactly wanted. His bedside manner is excellent.

I am very pleased with him. I had a surgery on my face for melanoma and you cannot even tell whether there is any scar left and it was successful and was taken care of. I was definitely pleased. I had no problem with appointment and I got in right a way. The office is fine. I didn’t have to wait for anything and the staff is excellent.

He has been practicing for 46 years, so he knows what he is doing, but I did not like him. He had a horrible bedside manner. I guess he needs to retire. I would not use him in the future; in fact, I canceled my followup appointment with him.

MEDICAL NEGLIGENCE! He never showed up! This resulted in his medications never being given, in particular his coumadin for blood clots. He spent 7 hours lying on a hard stretcher in the ER within the first 4 days. After notifying the doctor and demanding that he come see my husband the next day, it was 4 days later before he ever stepped foot in the facility to make rounds. Then I discovered that he is also the Medical Director for this nursing home! So as well as a private practice at IU Health on Greenbush, he is responsible for the overall medical care of a nursing home - the medical staff, etc. HMMMMM when I put it all together I thought that he didn't really give much value to my husbands life...maybe he just takes home easy money and doesn't really have any business holding this responsibility-- gotta pay those medical school loans!
Description of Work: Dr. Kevin Shendel was to be my husbands physician at Regency Place Nursing Home while recovering from a wound and to provide medication for pain, and his quadraplegia. Having to place my husband in the care of a nursing home because I had no way to care for him at home was the most difficult thing I have ever done - we are only 45 yrs old!
