First and foremost, Norwalk Community College was the first two-year college known since 1960, and they have been serving and assisting students in achieving the school readiness you have always desired but if you have struggled at some point.

It's a good starting school but extremely disorganized with idiots for employees. Dr Apple or apfel is a complete and total moron. She is so ungodly useless. She is extremely disorganized no wonder all of the students hate her. She wouldn't shake our hands because she said that's how germs are spread. Get rid of this delusional troll! She made an appointment for 12 and then when we got there said it was for 4pm. Um hello!? This school is so DISORGANIZED. If you're willing to put up with complete chaos for two years then go here. This school was better back in the day now it's a hell hole. The librarians are nice and some of the professors and the security officers are really nice but that's about it.Caitlin Campbell

Either believe the previous reviews of 'smelling like poverty and cigarettes', or understand that community college is the last place to find a living, breathing example of the American Dream. On top of that, NCC is the most well-funded community college, the most prestigious, and has the highest share of incredible professors than any other community college in the region. But it won't motivate you to succeed. You have to do that yourself. And if you do not find that drive within yourself in time, do not blame the college for your shortcomings. The opportunities are here and begging for you to take them.Ziggy Saks

The ECSU campus renovations are certainly a highlight of the overall look and feel. It does not however, override the experience as a whole. Over college tuition becoming increasingly expensive, this college is relatively cheap. But this is not an excuse for being inefficient, as I have one goal coming here which is learning about what I want to do for a living. I shouldn't have to pay the extra time money and effort attending pointless extra classes that both wear down my savings, emotional and physical wellbeing. It's a joke and if this university made an effort to eliminate said classes, it would 100% reduce depression campus wide and reduce the overall cost and time associated with getting the exact same educational value when you're diving into real world jobs. By my very generous calculation a 4 year degree here is more than half made up of courses that have nothing to do with the degree and can therefore be considered barely a 2 year degree's worth of actual job experience. I do regularly ask myself what I could do in the span of 4 years learning by myself instead of wasting my time coming here. Consider this, every year as a student, K-graduate, you are granted 2 months of time where you can endulge into hobbies interests or self taught without the burden of school work and arbitrary responsibilities. What do you think you could do with 48 months of that same time. Even with a working job you are not held responsible for duties after hours, but for some reason it's normal to both pay to sit down and listen to jabber as well as get held accountable for duties off of class time. If ECSU wanted to be considered a good fit for someone who wants to fly high with wings untethered you would have to strip away 80% of the required courses for any said degree therefore limiting the friction requires to make it year after year. You'd see immediate improvements to student involvement and overall mood compared to what we have now. You are keeping us occupied for no reason, and I think that is a waste of my time and money.William Donnelly

I graduated 3 times from here. Hard to give it a 5 but hard to give it a 3 as well. Is 3.5 an option? I went with 4. This school had some great professors and classes. I can't complain there. It's on par with UConn and much cheaper. That being said, some professors are a little more political than I feel they should be. I can deal with that for the quality of education they have given me, as I had learned a lot here, but thought it was worth mentioning. As for the management, however, it's gotten better since leaving from when I first started, but they aren't always on top of communication. I remember having to be on top of my educational choices more than the school simply because you either couldn't find answers or they contradicted with answers. They could certainly communicate better but have come a long way since when I started there. As a student, I was happy to attend. As someone entering the working world, they did not assist me in doing this very well. Their post-graduate program to set you up for employment isn't spectacular. I got more jog seeking support from the university school I graduated from. I also applied for several jobs at ECSU and have been shot down from the start, even though I feel that I was qualified for them. All in all, I had a good experience as a student, but I do feel there is some inequity in the management, job opportunities, and hiring decisions they make. That being said, being affordable, and getting a good education without loans was the overall goal, and Eastern helped me to do that.Adam Phelps

Small class sizes and a strong sense of community makes Eastern a remarkable place to work and learn. This is the best university I have ever experienced, hands down, and I'm not just saying that because I work here. Our students receive broad hands-on training that makes them highly competitive and valued members of the workforce… Just like our motto "A liberal education, practically applied." I wish I had an Eastern education myself!Matt Graham

This is a really good school if you’re all about your academics. I’ve had my good times and my bad times here at MCC. Overall on the academic side of MCC I appreciate all of the hard work that most of my professors have done. There are professors here that definitely need to be more qualified with what they are teaching as it has affected my grades when I’ve taken their courses. I am an Honor student here at MCC with a GPA of 3.30 and have never once had an issue with organization skills until my 2019 spring semester. A couple of the professors have been unorganized, no syllabus and sometimes they have other priorities when they have to teach a class in other words they put another professor in place when they have to go to another job. Although these were a couple of issues within my time here at MCC I enjoyed the experience of learning new knowledge for my future career. I really liked a lot of my professors but a couple of them have been a little rough. If you communicate with your professors about your issues that you’re having it really helps and shows that you’re determined to do your work and it shows you care about your work as well. Environment wise I’d have to say it’s not healthy (mentally/physically) and or good for many people. There have been students who have left garbage all over the place and don’t clean up after themselves which leads to maintenance having to clean it all up. With my time here I have helped maintenance clean up other people’s messes so they don’t have to worry about it as much. Also the amount of vaping, drug use, and underage drinking in the lounge is unacceptable and nothing has been done to take care of this issue except shutting the lounge down. I feel as if this does nothing but illustrates that they can go elsewhere within the college and do these things. An authority figure should really take this into consideration and do something about this because it affects others who have nothing to do with these people and it ruins people’s Health. You can smell weed from a mile away and if people have asthma or a health condition this could affect them physically. I do not appreciate this at all and I wish something was done about it. The other big issue environmentally is the fact that the main cafeteria can get very loud and some students have no manners and do not respect others around them. If they are asked to quiet down they do the opposite It has gotten to the point where a lot of people have complained and yet nothing is done to prevent this from happening again. The college needs to have some control over what students do and take action on these issues. I wish that there could be some changes here and I hope for the best for everyone at MCC. Overall it is a good school for your academics but is definitely not a mentally healthy place environmentally. Even if you try to get away and go somewhere else for privacy somehow drama follows behind you. A Tip would be after your classes go home if you can or go to the back of the library in the quiet study room. I wish everyone the best of luck here at MCC and hope that everything goes well.Carmella H

So I will start with sharing my positive highlights of the fall semester during covid. Some teachers were empathetic to the situation the entire nation went through. Prof. Muldoon did such an amazing job touching base and gaining clarity of students frustration and technical difficulties during this time. Prof Diane. Hillyer OMG if I were ever to be a college professor I’d want to have her passion and dedication. She’s a math angel, truly loves her job and her videos were perfect! Now chemistry online and labs online were a joke!!! The professor did not make enough office hours, used YouTube videos from other teachers, used repetitive templates for each week lesson with no data. If I wanted to learn chemistry that way I could’ve honestly gone on Edx.org for FREE and probably have learned the curriculum better. I might of missed 1 assignment and handed in 1 assignment 10 mins late and didn’t receive the grade or support needed. But unfortunately as a paying student I just have to deal with it, 2k down the drain! Funny thing I am also a teacher during covid and actually work in the building with student and never would I have ever made my students feel isolated like this professor did. I’ve never seen or heard my chemistry teachers voice but I’m pretty sure they got paid every two weeks while there’s probably many qualified teachers that could have done a way better job. I was warned about this professor but I learned the hard way. The school overall has a nice faculty and I feel like the majority do care. This is unfortunate when professor get so accustomed to a repetitive lifestyle because blackboard actually graded my exams so again not sure what some professor did during Covid behind the scene and so-called virtual teaching. This is a a good school to start or to get the credits needed for a post-Bach. I decided to go to a private school with a more dedicated team and more virtual teaching experience.Dignora Castillo

I was a potential international student and found Manchester Community College a great place to go. I called the first time and wasn’t able to talk to the responsible for international students but left my phone number and email. Umesh sent me an email saying he would give me a call. He did, two days later and was rude and impatient since the moment I picked up the phone and was acting like he was doing me a favor to call me. He said I should go back to my country and take my visa there instead of changing my status here, which is not up to him, was questioning how I was gonna become a student and more. I can’t even explain how rude and disrespectful he was to me who was just trying to make an appointment to go to the campus and get more informations in person about fees and the I20. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone, specially for international students! Very disappointedRayane Michelle

This place is a perfect example of “you get what you pay for”. I attended September 2009 – May 2018 (with a 3 year gap from 2012-2015). The hospitality teachers and department head were wonderful, and a lot of my general Ed teachers were amazing too and I have nothing but great things to say about the teachers. However, the registrar office and academic advisors were a nightmare to deal with. No one ever smiles, my message NEVER got relayed to the right person, and it was such a headache to deal with offices equivalent to dealing with the DMV. They also claimed that when you graduate you can transfer your credits to a state college which is false. Some of the credits transferred, but classes like Math don’t transfer and I have to take a placement test to get into the same exact math class I took at Gateway and passed the class with an A. The bookstore staff was the most incapable, rude, useless group of people. Graduation was a completely unorganized joke – they told graduates to arrive 2 hours early to stand in a parking lot with no instruction and 1 porta potty for about 300 people. They also only announce 1 of your degrees – so if you have 3 degrees they won’t even take the extra 5 seconds to announce all 3 (I thought graduation was supposed to recognize your achievements?) I would have never wasted my time going to graduation if I knew how pathetic it would be. Parking on campus in New Haven was crazy and the lot constantly overflows into the Temple Street lot so you get to walk in stairways that smell like urine with bums roaming the lot and drunk people stumbling to their car after your class at 9:30 at night with no security guards to get to your car. Literally no security whatsoever like your completely on your own in a public lot in the heart of New Haven. Like most schools, they don’t allow weapons inside the building so you don’t even have a way to defend yourself if you get approached in the lot which will happen at some point. There were also hospitality classes that I had to buy things out of pocket and was promised reimbursement that never happened.Nina Tiso

I loved working with the children in the Early Learning Center, but the adults in the classroom didn't really treat me that well. They didn't really accommodating me that well when it came to tasks such as setting the table for breakfast,lunch, and snack. A coworker got nasty because I wasnt moving fast enough for her. I'm visually impaired and I have to take my time because of my vision. I had to complain about this coworker 2 times. Another thing that didnt make sense was I had to walk to the other side of campus to eat lunch for my 30 minute break. The teacher of the classroom would get mad at me for being late because I am a slow eater and I cant move fast again because of my bad vision. student teachers aren't allowed to eat in the teachers lounge. I shouldn't have had to complain to my boss about eating in the teacher lounge. This place needs to be more accommodating to student teachers with disabilities and staff needs to be more compassionate. I am very glad that I don't work at this place anymore! I wish the adults would learn compassion from the children!Jasmyn Polite

Beautiful atmosphere. I was in their old building on Long wharf years ago, and seeing how they've grown and progressed into what I consider a university now, is life changing for the people attending this college. For a community college, they offer so much for the students with assistance as well as their educational endeavors. Their cafe offers delicious varieties which includes a wide range of healthy choices. Very inviting environment for the students to learn in. I get the feeling that this University cares about the students that attend itDelbra Wilson

This will probably be a review that management will never see or just consider another “complaining patient.” This is a huge hospital company so this will not mean anything but if anyone is thinking about bringing their little one here, try somewhere else. My son (1yrs old) was sent here from urgent care his o2 stat was low and trouble breathing. We got put in a room with another person, not admitted. They gave a treatment and never re assessed him, left him for 3 and a half hours. My husband tried to ask the nurse if she can check him again.. never came back. He then had to complain to the charge nurse which she gave us a number for patient experience- which I know will go know where. We are one patient among thousands, and feel like we’re expressing our feelings that will go in one ear and out the other since they’re just a big company. It’s sad that there wasn’t any concern for my poor baby to even get the least amount of care.the bare minimum. Not even above and beyond just check on him atleast!! I understand there are priority patients, but how does one know if he is a priority with his repository issues if he hasn’t even been checked on. Unacceptable. My husband is a healthcare provider and this is NOT quality care.taybabe

I am at a complete loss. We have made and cancelled appointments for my son with a doctor at ccmc and we can’t get him there. No one asks why we can’t get there. Just says okay, we’ll cancel. When I attempt explain his illness, no one cares. We were referred to this doctor because he has a great reputation and the fact he was familiar with my son’s illness. Now my son will consider to suffer with a serious life altering illness until I can find another doctor who understands his illness. It is disappointing how service has decreased at the hospital in the last few years. I won’t get into our ER experience last year. If your child does not have a well known illness, go elsewhere.Tarra Baron

My son has a hemangioma that was growing incredibly close to his eye. The team quickly assessed and recommended a plan of treatment that we were able to begin within a week. The plan required us to have a 5 hour long appointment so that he could be monitored for his first dose of the medication. I was there for 5 hours with my 2 year old and my 2 month old and they could not have made the experience better for us. The staff were all amazing and kind. Staff consistently checked on us and every question I had was listened to and answered with great detail. I was very impressed with our experience!Lynelle Wibberley

My father has not been able to keep food down for 3 weeks now. He's losing weight like crazy. He was scheduled for a CT scan today, Saturday 10/29. On Wednesday I stopped by to pick up the barium he needs to drink before the appointment. In his condition there's no way he could have kept that down. The lady I spoke to was extremely understanding and called the other office at 104 Plumtree to see if they could switch him to using Gastroview instead of barium. They agreed and asked for him to come an hour and a half earlier than his scheduled appointment. We arrived today on time and his appointment was magically canceled. It wasn't done by our doctor, me or my father so no one knows how this happened. Now my father has to continue to suffer not knowing what's wrong until next week. My father is 78 and has a history of cancer that he's been battling since he was 57. We know the importance of early detection and immediate treatment. This obviously doesn't help. Extremely disappointed.Robert Royster

I'm 33 years old and had to have my first mammogram due to being high risk for breast cancer. The staff did tell me it's common to get a call to come back in after your first mammogram and to not panic if they do, but I'll never understand why they dont leave "the call" to someone that can actually explain to you what's wrong. I received a call from advanced radiology that I needed to come back for additional imaging on my right side. When I asked what was wrong she said "your doctor didn't call you?" I said no……. (ok..cue axiety) and of course the person calling can't discuss what's wrong, so I had to wait for my doctor to call. It took two days for my doctor to call, and its only because i called their office first so i could know what was wrong. I was sitting with anxiety, and it took another week to get back in for additional. Second visit was great, the woman taking the pictures was so sweet and calming. Just wish they'd change the way they notified people.Sakura Terada

My daughter had an appointment today. Her appointment was messed up because of our insurance. Christy was extremely helpful and patient with resolving the issue. The reason for the 2 rating is because while I was waiting for my daughters procedure, the "Greeter" was complaining to Karen about her job. This is extremely unprofessional. A little while later Karen was sleeping at her desk #4. I was the only person in the waiting room so I guess she was bored.Monica Sclafani

My daughter was having trouble breathing, so I wanted to get her in. They were super pleasant and reassuring on the phone, and although I couldn’t get an appointment I was able to walk in, and the receptionist told me it would be about an hour wait. For a Sunday at an Urgent Care I thought that wasn’t bad! Thirty minutes after we arrived they called my 2-year-old in and were able to diagnose and provide treatment within 15 minutes. I have never heard of a 45-minute urgent care visit, but it was clear everyone here was working with urgency and professionalism as well as genuine care. Cannot recommend enough!Bobbi Stewart

Took my son to PM pediatrics today as a walk in. The service was excellent. I spent less than 10 minutes in the waiting room. The check-in staff was friendly and courteous. The nurse that took care of us was professional and kind to my son. The Provider Christopher was amazing and explained in great detail the diagnoses and what other things he had ruled out and why. He was excellent, educated me so much! He took the time to listen and to teach us. He was gentle and playful with my 6 year old who was initially nervous about going to the clinic, his approach made things go very smooth. Thank youMaya Rios

I would not recommend this place even if it were the only option. From the front desk registration to the provider evaluation just awful. Front desk was all over the place, unorganized and definitely needed more training on the systems. They could not help with basic registration. The provider did little to no evaluation and no test to make sure our child was healthy enough to not need further care elsewhere. We ended up in the ER the very next day after we were told she was fine after 5 days of fever/ having a hard time breathing. Needless to say don't waste your time and head to CCMC.Eve C

I am so glad my physical therapist referred me to her orthopedic doctor. Dr. Yannopoulos has been absolutely wonderful. He immediately sat down with me and explained my MRI results, he assured me that I had many choices and surgery did not have to be one of them nor was it needed. I had already been to two other doctors who gave me surgery and an injection as my only choices. I am ready to shout it to the mountain tops Dr. Yannopoulos sent me to physical therapy and two months later my back feels great!! Dr. Yannopoulos is extremely professional, upfront and honest with you, and he personally has gone through back issues himself so he knows what you are going through. I have referred 3 people to him already. And, I absolutely can’t forget his amazing medical assistant, Diana is on the ball too. She really handles everything and doesn’t waste time getting procedures set up and paperwork completed. She also is on hand to answer any questions you may have. She either answers the phone immediately or calls you right back.Misha McD

It's funny how this review presents to me because I was wondering how I can let these people know how wonderful they were to me with my visit.. they were professional and friendly it was my first visit and I felt so at home as if they had know me for a long time.. the doctor answered all my question and concerns. He was very honest ,he told me I did not really need surgery ., But it was an option ,not many people will do that. Bear in mind I'm a black man and I often get treated like am bringing a plague . They did not put on a glove or mask to touch my hands so I felt they treat me with respect and dignity. In fact I was the one with the mask.Honestly once in awhile they invade my head that's how nice they were. And I'm happy to say keep up the good work ,how you let someone feel is very important thank you and your staff for your service.Merrick Davis

This is what I like about Alyssa. Alyssa explains the issue in as much detail as I want. She is quite thorough. She explains self healing mechanism of my body and makes me comfortable that it may take time but It will heal naturally. I just need to exercise a hurt part as prescribed. In the past 2 and a half years, I have seen Alyssa for 3 different problems. Wrist fracture from a fall on icy driveway, Ankle sprain while walking and a pinky sprain from a fall while hiking. All 3 healed naturally. No medication. Thank you Alyssa!Madhu Rao

Today I had an MRI and the staff were all very cheerful, and made me feel relaxed , in a very uncomfortable exam . I really enjoyed their professionalism, and could tell they were very good at their jobs . I would highly recommend this location in Cheshire to anyone who asks .Michael & Pat Graham

I go here for all my blood work and Imaging needs, I also see a few Doctors here. Service is very fast, I was out in 40 min after getting blood work and x-rays of both hands and wrists the same morning. They are all very friendly!Denise L.

Easy to get to, parking and signage was very good, check in was excellent and on time! All staff were friendly and smiling. My x-ray tech was caring and explained everything to me. Definitely would use this facility again.Elaine McDunnah

Both the check-in & check out process went very smoothly, and the staff are patient, courteous, & helpful. Dr. Wasserlauf and his team took all the time I needed for responses and explanations of my options, and their comprehensive overview helped me effectively weigh the pros and cons of each idea presented. Thank-you for this exceptionally positive experience.Deborah Hovey

Best experience I ever had with the care for my knee doctor and nurse explained everything the procedure was excellent they made me feel very comfortable and I I really appreciate the doctor listening to my questions. Bill FREEMANWilliam Freeman

I was relieved by the short wait time to be seen and was impressed with Dr. Kruger’s straightforward, patient-first approach. The office was clean and open and the support staff was thorough, efficient and friendly.Starr Cookman

I've had to use this priority Urgent Care several times in the last year and a half. There is rarely a long way the doctors and nurse practitioners and stuff are through and have a great manner especially when you're not feeling good! With the increase in covid positives medical staff are once again cranking up the tests. I like this location. I can't say that for the others that I've been to and I've had multiple tests in the last 6 months at different locations. I don't even mind the travel there 30 minutes from home. I'd rather go there and be treated well and with respect than being shuffled in and out with absolutely no medical bedside manners.Tyra Mastroianni

Really really rude staff and bad place (-10) stars. I dont usually comments unless good review but not this time. Went in filled up paper work wait to get called in for blood work for my son. Got ready to do it but my son is scare of needle. He start resisting and when to the bathroom. Because my son resisted, on the way back they said that one test tube was expired to get rid of me. Suddenly they couldn't do it because it needed to be done at quest only. This place stinks.Pierre Petit

Made an appointment 30 minutes before, and people were nice. However, there were some issues with the credit card machine, and the three ladies at the front desk were cursing and arguing with each other about whose fault it was, what to do, etc. etc. This made me pretty uncomfortable and it didn't seem professional. It also delayed my appointment by more than 30 minutes. The PA who I saw was very quick and knowledgeable. Overall satisfied with care.Erin Kim

Came in 7:40pm this Friday for a urine test for work (drug test). Explained to the receptionist I was turned away from Quest Diagnostics earlier that day because they stop doing tests at 3:30pm while my employer left me a note tests run until 5pm… Due to nature of a drug test, they have to be done by a deadline otherwise you are treated as testing positive and you lose your job offer. The receptionist refused to check me in saying “she will not be waiting for me three hours”. When I asked what she means she said she doesn’t know how long it’s going to take me to pee and she refused to wait past 8. I was floored. Zero compassion. Horrible customer service. I went to another urgent care and I was in and out in 15min. I am so upset that I was treated so badly and the receptionist was rude on top of my already difficult situation.Marta

I was at Physician One Urgent Care in West Hartford two days ( 8/8 ) the entire staff was great , from the check in point to discharge process. Provider Steven Sasso PA was very concerned about my visit and really went beyond, to schedule my ultra sound appt process. Followed up same day and the following day to discuss the results. Great place and staff , strong recommendation for those urgent needs. If needed in future will always go back for medical services. 5 stars service from me.Casimir Nowobilski

The service was quick, kind and thorough. The staff was helpfull and informative. Katie was the nurse and xray tech. She was excellent. Always kept me informed. Steven was the provider. He did a careful assessment listening to my complaints. He ordered diagnostics and even consulted a radiologist to verify findings. He offered several choices for treatment and gave me the cost of each since I was a self pay. When i was discharged, I was wheeled all the way to my car. Thank you forCheri Barbarotto

In a very broken system I’m grateful for my positive experience at RAH today. Everyone was so friendly and the tech made me feel completely at ease. I never felt like just another warm body moving through an assembly line like I have at another large radiology center. I also appreciate the transparent and accessible time of service pricing available online which made it possible to have my imaging done when my insurance wanted to deny and roadblock my care.Morgan Laskarzewski

My experience with RAH in Glastonbury has always been amazing! But I have to say that the person who did my mammogram this week was exceptional! Her name is Cassandra C. She was polite, professional and kind. RAH is lucky to have such a wonderful employee working for them!Nita Taub

After making sure the appointment was booked for two hours, they decided to schedule only one & while they took the time to figure out what happened they decided that they dont even have time for that one appointment. This is a disgrace for a medical imaging office.Dina Maia

I arrived early for my appointment and was checked in and asked to sit and wait. After 20 minutes I was called up to the counter and asked to show my insurance card, which I did and was then asked to sit and wait again. After 30 minutes, the technician came out and called my name to tell me that I had not shown up on time so they were going to take others who came on time for their appointments. I explained that I had shown up on time and had been sitting there for 30 minutes waiting. Apparently, the receptionist had not formally "checked" me in. I asked if I could be taken next anyway since it was not my error that I had not been marked present. They refused. I had to wait for another 30 minutes while others were taken in. Most frustrating was that I was on a lunch break while it was obvious that almost all others were obviously retired and probably not required to be back anywhere in a short period of time. A 10 minute scan turned into an hour and a half frustrating experience. They were not willing to work with their patients, even when it was their error. The technician kept apologizing but still refused to take me in the order I arrived as if I was being punished for their mistake. I will not be going back there. And, I had to explain at work why it took me 2 and 1/2 hours for lunch.Nancy Cominoli

I was referred to RAH for an ultrasound biopsy. I was a little concerned because the reviews I had read were not great. I had checked in with the office before my scheduled date to be sure everything was in order. I was assured that everything was in order and was told my appointment would take about an hour. I arrived on time but did have to wait a very nerve wracking 30 minutes. Once I was in the examination room Diane was very calming. Dr Ramirez did the biopsy and explained everything he was doing as he went along. He was very reassuring and sensitive to my comfort. At one point I was getting a little impatient and Diane was wonderful. She was able to distract me with a very pleasant conversation all the while being attentive to Dr. Ramirez’ needs. My biopsy did take longer than I expected but I appreciate the fact that nothing was rushed. While I do hope not to need this service again, I would be quite comfortable returning to RAH.Nancy Woods

RAH is absolutely phenomenal! I have been to four of their locations and all of them are top notch and state of the art. I would never go anywhere else. Kathy Smith is one in a million. She goes above and beyond to accommodate and help you. She truly cares about every patient who walks through those doors. The receptionists are all so friendly and helpful, the technicians go out of their way to make you comfortable. It’s very easy to get an appointment and they always take you right on time. Dr Jaswal and Dr Remerez are the kindest, smartest, most compassionate doctors you’ll ever find, and it doesn’t get any better than that. You will never find a more compassionate and caring place, and in todays world, you don’t find that anymore in a medical setting. RAH has truly set the bar for what ALL medical facilities should be like. When you’re at RAH, you know you’re in the best hands.J Tumel

I had a great experience! The classes and the hands on training are easily to follow! The CNA instructor, Tyemel is very professional and easy going. He pays attention to any detail that needs to be correct it. He also gives you tips, website references and answer all the questions that you may have! The administration is always there for you and they are more than happy to help if help is needed! Highly recommended! 🙂Yajaira Christian

What a great experience at Northeast Medical Institute! Their staff answered all my questions I had during the registration process. The instructor was great! He definitely knew his stuff and was not to hard on the class which made it a more comfortable learning environment. Highly recommend! I will definitely be referring friends and family.Tim C

Highly recommend this CNA and Phlebotomy program for someone who is interested in a quick/informative program near Hartford CT. This program allows you to take it half online and then finish up the nurse aide and phlebotomy skills in person.Robert Frost

My experience with them was great, however one of the partners they use, Radiological Associates of Middletown (RAM), has awful billing practices that might end up impacting your credit. You will call RAM and pay a bill, and they won’t tell you that you have any past due bills. Instead, they’ll happily let you pay only the current bill, and send your other bill to collections. I had a less than $40 bill sent to collections, which was due well before 5/24/22, and when I called to make a payment on a different bill on that date, they didn’t bother making me aware of this overdue bill. A health provider is only as great as the other providers they force you to interact with, so hopefully they will think harder about using RAM for their radiology needs. Just to be clear, my bad review is because a provider they use is bad, Middlesex Outpatient Center in my experience was good. But as long as they send people’s radiological results to RAM, they are submitting more people to RAM’s bad billing practices.Grant Westfahl

I come here several times a year to have blood drawn for various doctors needs. Every time I've come in, the registration process is quick and efficient. After registration, the wait times are always reasonable, but vary, when there are several people in the waiting area. Once my name is called, the actual drawing takes less than two minutes on average. I've never experienced any more than a mild "pinch" sensation when they insert the needle, and far more often, feel nothing at all with any of the many phlebotomists that have drawn my blood over the ten years I've been coming here. I just can't watch while they insert the needle in my arm. Makes me very queasy. I'm usually in and out within 20 minutes, and I think that's a very reasonable amount of time.Jim C

I have been coming here for many many years, either for blood work,which the ladies that take my blood are outstanding, kind and friendly.I have very small veins and it's hard to find, so I tell them and they take care of it no problem…. And the ladies behind the counter are also very courteous and kind and keep your information private and make sure everything is correct before you leave and leave with a smile….,. And for our breast exams I have every six months they do their job well..,.And even though they are very busy it's done within a reasonable time…Terry Emmons

I would go elsewhere if you need imaging done unless you have a litigious mind and like being sued by your doctor/medical facility. The service they provide is alright, but the headache and hassle they give you after is not worth it. The techs are kind. The waiting room is crowded. My experience is as follows: I called the number on my bill a few months after my scan and was told I had no balance. I didn’t receive anything else, but a few months later, still less than a year after my date of service, I received a lawsuit from small claims court that I was being sued for $300. I called Whitney Imaging again to pay and they wouldn’t accept payment and referred me to the collections agency. The collections agency they use is nasty, condescending and refused to accept payment and told me my bill increased by $95 and that I would also have to pay legal fees for going to court. It seems unethical and like an unnecessary shake down. I don’t understand, if the office miscommunicated to me when I tried to pay my bill, why the collections agency never sent me further bills. You think they would fed ex me a letter for $3 or confirm my address before going the extreme route of hiring a lawyer and filing in small claims court, but this is not the case. I have private insurance that paid them their contracted rate. I attempted to pay my co-pay on date of service and called a few months after receiving a bill and tried to pay the amount I received a bill for, but was told I had no balance. Here I am- ultimately I’ve paid 32% more than I owed and am facing a day off work to go to court and legal fees….and it took many phone calls- like an entire afternoon- to get them to take payment for my amount plus the 32%….and the headache isn’t over because I still have to show up in court or else it will be settled in their favor. I’d pick another provider because going here is not worth the headache!Berkley Family

One star is honestly too much! I came to this facility to have imaging done. And the front desk receptionist CINDY was rude, loud and distasteful!! She was loud talking about my personal information while other clients were around and violating HIPPA. She declined me from being seen although my insurance approved my procedure. She made up a intricate story making it seem like my insurance was not approved when indeed it was!! I was highly upset that I had to leave only to call back and reschedule and being Informed that I SHOULD have still been seen. She works in poor taste and should NOT be servicing customers in this delicate field.Pure Bliss

I wish they took appointments for x-rays, you're not sure how long you'll have to wait and, while waiting, it looks like people wait, socially distanced, standing in a 4 foot wide hallway. When i arrived, I was able to get into the waiting room but when i left, there were several people standing in the hall, that's the only reason i gave a "4" rating. But, my tech deserves a 5. she had orders to put me in weird position given the surgery i had recently. She checked with the physician to make sure and was able to do the X-ray as painlessly and gently as possible. She did a great job!Jeff Carlson

The way that I would like to start this off is by saying this is the best school I’ve ever attended. Kathy from administration helped me by making sure I understood everything that I needed to. Then Whitley and Jenna from financial aid helped me by making everything in that area easy as pie. After that came one of the best teachers I’ve ever had Beth. She made sure that we understood that the Medical Coding and Billing program was not going to be easy and to be ready to not have a social life outside of school which was not a joke at all. My program was supposed to be 40 weeks (10 months) and with the pandemic it got extended to 15 months. After everything the school was very helpful and also made sure we were safe when the school opened up after being closed due to the pandemic. Emilie and Beth are always there to help out and even do one on ones if needed. The biggest shout out is to the owner of the school Chris Coutts. This is because after I completed my program I was offered to take 3 practice CPC exams and if I passed the owner would pay to take the actual CPC exam. This was completely out side out our program cost. Thanks to Chris Coutts I took my CPC exam on 12/4/2021 and got my results on 12/10/2021 that said I passed. If you are looking to start a new chapter in life and are thinking about Medical Coding and Billing I strongly encourage you to go to American Institute.Rotsen Pizarro

I absolutely love The American Institute. The West Hartford Campus is absolutely amazing. Ever since enrolling with Jason my life has been positively progressing. Jason signed me up back in august. He told me how great this school is as well as the director of my program who is also my teacher, Beth Canny. She is an outstanding, loving, caring teacher. She makes herself available for help at any hour of the day. She always has an open door, and can always assure you that you are capable of this program. She’s hands down the most amazing teacher I’ve personally ever had and I’m so grateful to be apart of the AI family. Jason was awesome in telling me about the program and how nice this school truly is. The school always has its students at heart, and not only while in the building but at home as well. They are always finding ways to help students needs. I am constantly telling family and friends about how amazing the American Institute is.Danielle Dzienciol

I started at American Institute in September 21' for medical assisting on an impulse decision & it's been one of the best choices I've ever made. I called and within 30 minutes Jason called me back to see the campus. He made my choice to register so so easy. I've always wanted to be in the medical field and this school just felt like the place to start my journey. My teachers have been AMAZING. They are so so knowledgable and if they see you care, they will help you succeed by all means. Just in 2 months I've learned so much. I've never done so well in school and I am just so grateful to have found this school. I have also made amazing friendships with likeminded and motivated women. Ignore the bad reviews..If you put in the work, you will have a great experience. If you are motivated and want to start your career in the medical field, this is an amazing place to start!!!!Olivia Lanza

My wife and son had an appointment scheduled for 12/23 in the Pediatric Specialty Center & we always go to Park Ave in Trumbull for his check-ups (he has an autoimmune blood disorder). Not only have we tried to attend appointments multiple times with no success, we have been turned away by security for bringing his twin brother with us twice, and they send no confirmation for appointment. Then today my wife gets to the building for what we thought was his hematology appointment, but the front desk schedules for his appointment to be in New Haven and we’ve never been there in our life. The reception at this office have no sympathy for the sick patients that they see day to day, and were quick to turn my son away without treatment. He has had enlarged lymph nodes for over two months with nobody to see him or want to see him. STAY AWAY. We will be taking our son elsewhere.Jayson Velez

I accompanied my parents here the other day, as my father needed to have a fairly comprehensive MRI procedure done, and I must say that this is one beautiful facility. The Meditating Garden is very nice, and quite suitable for it's intent as I spent a good twenty minutes there sitting by the waterfalls, and the art work which was on display throughout was quite pleasing as well. On the ride home, my parents both informed me that the level of quality of service was exceptional, the staff was excellent, all good things were said. I myself felt at absolute peace while here, and know that if I ever need any kind of serious testing done it will be at this center. Highly recommended, and not just for the services offered but also for the wonderful setting of this facility which makes the patient feel very much at ease.George Waters

The building is nice and pretty clean, but i hope you are good at maps and directions once inside. Parking is an absolute nightmare. If you have mobility issues, small children, a stroller/wheelchair, a lot of stuff to carry, etc. plan ahead; give yourself an extra 20 minutes at least. Security and main building reception are some of the least helpful and miserable people I’ve ever seen. I could perform a whole comedy set on how bad they are. It’s like they’re prisoners there lol. I asked one to repeat the literal 5-7 part directions to my appointment inside the building and you would’ve thought I asked her to eat a dead mouse. It’s worse than when you ask a Jamaican restaurant too many questions. Iykyk. I watched some wild racist stuff from security too once so BIPOC be careful there.Lux X

I write this review out of immense gratitude towards this great institution, Yale New Haven Hospital! I lost my father to COVID in October of 2020 when my parents were happily and independently living in India. I requested my mom to come with me after my dad's demise and she came along with me to the US. Her life had come to a screeching halt after my father left, who she was completely dependent upon. Unfortunately, My mother was diagnosed with cancer in April of 2021 while she was in California visiting my sister. We were all distraught hearing this and we asked her to come here for her treatment at Yale. My parents were successfully able to lead a comfortable life in India, but she had no source of income nor any medical insurance when she came to the US. We scheduled our first appointment at Yale with Dr. Judson, a head and neck surgeon who had operated upon my wife before. During our appointment, I met Shannandola at Yale, who worked for Yale's administration and said we would have no choice, but to go for self pay. She humbly guided me to apply for Yale free care. This was a shot in the dark and we had so much on our mind that we did not even hope for anything after applying for it. I received a call from Iris at Yale Financial department regarding my application and she guided me on the additional documents required for the application to be considered. I was able to promptly provide her with all the documents that she requested and within hours of our conversation, I heard back from her giving me a verbal approval for my mother's free care at Yale and all it's subsidiary hospitals and clinics. This felt like a call from God. I literally started crying on the call and we all hugged and started to cry out of joy after the call as a family. My mother was relieved beyond words could express! My mother underwent a successful surgery that lasted 13 long hours with 3 surgeons working tirelessly to remove her cancer. She underwent chemo and radiation therapy at Yale along with physical and speech therapy. this was all done at 0 charge to her. My mother fought like a brave soldier and was working hard to recover from the strong side affects from the radiation. She developed severe aspiration pneumonia and we lost our mother unfortunately due to the complication from the radiation in September of this year. My family and I are incredibly grateful to Yale for all that they have done for us. Sickness, Life and death are beyond our control unfortunately, but she was relieved from a major financial burden by this kind and benevolent act of Yale.Utkarsh Jhala

My first time ever being hospitalized was last year April with Covid. It was by far the worst experience ever, I told people whenever God decides to give me a child, I will look into home birth. Animals probably get better treatment. I went in for Covid and next thing I knew, I was being treated like a psych patient. Yes they say Covid did alot to people, but if wasn't for the fact that I gave my life completely to the Most High God on that hospital bed. Then I probably would have been died like countless people who were ignored, starved, given unnecessary medications and have your rights as a patient ignored. When I tried to complain about what was happening to me, many didn't believe because it sounded like something out of a movie. I tried to tell them, "they are trying to kill me." My life flashed infront my face twice, I had 2 near death experience and it was not due to Covid, it was due to the medications the nurses admistered and my heart stopped. My phone got taken away and they try to say I was hitting staff, woke up in restraints and given IV medications against my will. If you come to draw someone's blood while they are sleeping, obviously they will move. Some people should not be taking care of others. Many healthcare professionals also needs a spiritual life, because due to the medication they gave me, it weakened my body and I had a horrible spiritual attack. I asked for a priest or pastor and I was denied. One of the doctor who work at the VNA that works at yale was the worse. I never told them I was in nursing so they had no clue that I was aware of certain things. It goes to show you that people take their bias to work and treat patients worse than animals. It starts with the EMT. I had to take time out from schooI and was unable to work when I first came out the hospital. I had to learn to trust humanity again. I have never been to prison, but this was beyond horrifying. I have never had issues with my liver and the amount of medications they gave me did some harm to my liver and overall immune system. I am a child of the Most High God and he always fight my battles for me. Only a few nurses and staff members were caring. One needs to be prayed up when they are visiting the hospital or being hospitalized, because there is so many spirits in hospitals.Kemecia Arthur

First let me say that the doctors, nurses, and all of the staff at Yale New Haven Hospital (YNHH) are fantastic. The medical care is great. With that said, the food service if you are a vegan is terrible. If you are going to be spending any time at YNHH and are a vegan, please bring your own food as best you can. I had a procedure where I stayed overnight and I got to a room at about 9PM. The food service closes at 8PM. I asked the nurse what they had to eat as I had not eaten due to the procedure in about 20 hours. All they had was sandwiches; Turkey, Ham, and Beef. They had zero vegan options. The nurse was able to find me dry breakfast cereal, and tiny cups of peanut butter. Later she found me a little fruit cup like you would send to school with your children their lunch. That is all I had to eat. In the morning I went to order something and the "menu" has some things marked as "plant based". Turns out they do not mean vegan, they mean 'mostly plants with some animal products'. The marking was inconsistent, as an apple was not marked as plant based, but a meal that had milk in it was. You have call their food service and ask them to list the ingredients of anything you think might be vegan to find out as their staff does not know either. Come on YNHH, get your act together, this is 2022! Support vegan food at the hospital. Food service wise, I give them an "F".Robert Orion
