Child Bearing Center of Morris Heights Health

Listen here guys, these bitches don’t care about you.
I was tested for a normal std test, every clinic policy is to CALL the person As soon as possible if results are positive.
I didn’t receive a call at all whatsoever. No call no text no email nothing and they had all of my contact information on record. Turns out it was two weeks later after I had been tested, and i had to call them! Unfortunately instead of telling me to come right away, they insisted that I have to make an appointment so I made an appointment for the following weekend and turns out I was positive for something. I was so angry that they waited so long to take care of me for me to come back because what if I would’ve had sex with somebody and past it on. I was soooo fucking pissed. The doctor I had was an older woman named Sarah who listens to weird opera music in her office. She’s white and she’s kind of like weird. Turns out she didn’t give a fuck if I had an STD or not because a Doctor who cares (or at least do your job right) would call their patient right away and tell you to come in that day or the following day. She took a whole hour to get all of my documents together. I wasn’t really mad at her because it wasn’t her fault that the clinic she works for has bad management.
Turns out she sends the medication to a clinic that was closed the following day which is Morriss heights pharmacy, literally right down the block.
The next day the clinic was closed and I’m thinking to myself I need the medication right now because if I’ve been sick for a long time then I can really mess up my insides. She gave me a prescription for my partner however I took it for myself to at SJS clinic and I got my medication that same day.
My only advice is to never come here and do not trust whatsoever, you’ll probably be better off in Bronx Lebanon. If you have aids they probably won’t tell you until a month. Thats so disgusting!!! If i have an STD tell me now!!! I couldve gotten a lawsuit because they failed to contact me right away

I really wanted to like this place. I believe in their mission, especially their resolve to offer «alternative» birthing practices and environments to low-​income women and women of color. When I first learned that I was pregnant, I called to schedule an appointment with an OB, as my GYN at the Continuum Center for Health and Healing does not practice obstetrics (that’s another story.) The first day, after a maze of phone calls and pressed number keys, I finally got the line for Women’s Health, but it just rang. Not even voicemail. I called back several times with the same outcome: a ringing phone. I finally told the receptionist at the main Center, and she explained that they had had a birth that day, so it was crazy. Is this not a birthing center? Are they not adequately staffed and prepared to handle both delivering babies and answering phones?
I called back several times over the course of two days, still feeling passionate about delivering my baby in a warm and nuturing space that wouldn’t bankrupt me. I finally got a receptionist in Women’s Health who made my appointment, albeit a bit gruffly, and with an attitude that reinforces the stereotypes about people from the Bronx.
I wish my tale ended there, but a day after I made my appointment, I started bleeding heavily with mild cramping. First I called by GYN at the Continuum Center, and she advised me to go to the emergency room. After waiting in the emergency room for three hours, with still no sight of a doctor, I called the Center, asking to speak with a nurse – hoping that they would be able to see me. The woman who answered the phone refused to put me through to one, and after explaining my situation to her, she advised me to just go to the emergency room. I told her I was already in one, and she then took down my information. A nurse called me back, but I missed the call. I called back three times. The first two times, the phone just rang. The last time I was able to leave a message with someone. I finally left the emergency room I was in and went to another hospital.
Why can’t we have places in the Bronx that are affordable and high quality? Why must you sacrifice one for the other. I guess I can’t honestly comment on their quality, as I have yet to be seen there, but if phone calls are that difficult, I can only imagine what in-​person appointments are like.

so today i had my 38 week appointment, I am at my wits end with“Morris Heights Health Center’s Women’s Health and Birthing Pavilion”. I would not recommend any grown woman go there for her prenatal care. I don’t even know if teens could even stand the poor service this place offers. I’m not one to make public complaints, but this place sucks,
* They don’t do any of the stuff regular doctors would do… and if so. it’s late, so if there was a problem with the baby. it would be too late to make a difference.
* It’s like «bare bones care».
* However, after all of this they EXPECT you to use their birthing center and almost PRESSURE you to.
* The waiting there is out of control, so don’t bother showing up on time or early for your appointments because if you’re scheduled for a 10am… you’re not leaving until after 1pm!
* I HAVE ONLY HAD 2 INTERNAL EXAMS DURING THE WHOLE PREGNANCY!
* THEY REFUSED TO CHECK AND SEE IF I AM PROGRESSING!
* MY FETAL ABNORMALITY SCREENS WERE ORDERED AT 19 WEEKS!
So yeah… I’m done with this place!!, Today I finally got my copy of my medical record so i can bring it to the the hospital of my choice when it’s time to deliver my baby. …I’m free of that place and just ready for the big day… I’m done with that doctor and I’m ready to roll!
I WOULD NOT NOT NOT RECOMMENDED THIS CLINIC TO EVEN AN ENEMY!
