Memorial Sloan Kettering Commack

I have to say this isn’t any type of place you want to go too obviously. After that said my experience has been great. My ob/​gyn Dr Jewel has been the best I could of asked for. Besides all she has done for me (saving my life) and the care that she has shown, she honestly cared about me and my health so much. Never hesitated to get the treatment I needed and pushed/​rushed others to get genetic testing done ASAP for me. This place is super clean and very organized. My only bad for me is that the first time I had chemo they diagnosed my cancer as serus and treated it but it happened that the tumor was not only just serum but a combo of 2 different kinds, the treatment they chose was for just the serus cancer and 10 months later it returned and I had to have chemo again. I’m in remission now! Let’s not forget doctors, radiologists are people too and mistakes unfortunately happen. This would be the only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars.

Not happy with the place, read review that said the place was pristine? that must have been years ago. My take on the place is, more staff then doctors and nurses. Not so nice staff. the door man is the best part of Sloan Commack. I won’t get into what happened to me in treatment but I feel the nurses just don’t care anymore. Their tired, over worked, unhappy. Their desk is filled with junk food, so funny and not that I wanted any of it but there was more then enough to pass out yet I never heard them offer anyone not anyone a cookie. Instead there was a basket with some old crackers for the patients. Some people spend their whole day there. Get ready you can wait along time to be called. Bring food. Did not feel cared about, cancer is such a big business– BIG and you don’t see how big till you have it. Sloan Commack is getting a make over but you’ll still have a staff of people who will remain the same. The chairs are hard and the very few big soft chairs are dirty. That’s all but to say «God Bless you if you have Cancer and I wish you well». One more thing, don’t be afraid to ask questions.

Cannot say enough about this center. The most respectful staff, immaculate, caring and compassionate.

MSKCC owns and operates a really beautiful space close to the LIE with some immaculate, wind-​swept and snow-​covered grounds. The pristine interior includes a sleek fish tank and chic lighting, and the view out the back-​facing windows is as calming as the quality of care you can expect to receive.
