Why is this system voted number 2? Look at these reviews and judge for yourself. I came to write a review and found everyone complaining about the same thing. It's not worth my time, I'll find somewhere else to go

I have PTSD from this hospital system
They are like a slot machine at a casino: keep throwing your body into appointments, and you might eventially get something out of it. The reviewer who said they want you already diagnosed is correct. Rheumatology has been corrupted for years. The last one I saw sent me to another system because he could see I was sick but knew their policy is bad. Neuro costed me so dearly i probably should have sued, but I was too neurologically compromised to act. Ombuds is abusive. I actually have appts scheduled I am cancelling. My ob/gyn is a truly good human who works for a sociopathic machine. She has no will and I don't want to make her feel worse about her job. My cardio is a new dr, and I like him, but again, I don't trust policies from his overlord that determine my care. Gastro is a con. I tried meds already with my old NP at CC, and I was expected to try again. I went elsewhere and they immediately gave me something i'd never heard of to try. I know the reasons a few of my docs left & don't blame them. The new kids are sometimes really good people who signed their souls over. And for my endocrine issues, they have gone down the drain. They are ozempic pushers now, and I have no clue how they still rank. Best and most recent garbage: finding out that specialists for my one condition know exactly what i'm talking about, but the neuro I saw at CC about the subspecialist adjacent and the med I asked about while I waited on further eval was completely clueless and totally abusive. He didn't even recognize the issue i was having that day. He only cares about easy and pre-diagnosed to fit his image. (Thank god for patient groups: he has done this to several people, and word is spreading.) The staff is horrendous, but to be fair, they are abused and ground to a nub. The ppl I know personally who work there are not happy, but cleveland went from steel town to hospital town, and here we are. It would be nice if there were more competition locally, but CC bought the medical school, and the cancer that is substandard care masquerading as "patient focused" is further deteriorating quality of care.

Horrible virtual appointment system
Horrible virtual appointment system! Has failed me twice now. And then the physician assistant has the guts to blame their technology problems on me stating "I'm late!" So frustrated with this place.

I would not select any star if that was…
I would not select any star if that was an option. My husband's entire ER visit was a TOTAL nightmare.The physician on call was 110 years old. He did not follow up on anything, gave me the wrong medicine and discharged me without updating their system. I am now sicker than I was originally. If you need any medical attention at all, go to Jupiter.

THE VAUNTED CLEVELAND CLINIC..HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT
drove 2-1/2 hours to the clinic for a consultation with a hematologist. Pre-registered and brought everything I was supposed to bring. Appointment was at 2 PM. Nurse checked me in and at 2:10 PM was ushered into an exam room. Was told the doctor would be in shortly.
By 2:45...no doctor. I wrote a note explaining why I left.

unethical doctors with fragile egos
I no longer get care at this atrocious facility. The things Cleveland Clinic did to me was illegal and not ethical. I could not recommend them to anyone. To get away with their illegal and unethical behavior they bear false witness against their patients with no evidence to back up any of their claims. They wrote lies about my character in my medical chart. I have been so severely traumatized by getting care at several of their facilities, including main campus. Not one but multiple doctors mistreated me with my family present to witness the abuse. As a result my family no longer see doctors. This place should be ashamed of their behavior.
Their diagnostic skills are below average. Their treatment plans are a one size fits all. Sorry for your luck if it doesn't work for you. I was told before I went to the Cleveland Clinic I had to have a diagnosis prior and I was also told "I needed to pretend to be stupid." I would agree with both of those. They can't diagnose and they feel threatened by patients with above average intelligence. Cleveland Clinic doctors and staff have super fragile egos. Stay away from this place.

Absolutely horrible hospital
Absolutely horrible hospital. My oncologist left and now I am without any info or test results. No future appointment or tests or even a new doctor. My daughter went 3 weeks with a stent for her kidney stone because Cleveland clinic has to RENT the lithotripsy machine. People should be put in jail. This is in Vero beach Florida. Sat for one hour with IV in arm because doc didn’t sign order for Keytruda.

Poor communication/ Nonexistent concern
Called to advise that I needed a follow up mammogram due to abnormalities. Scheduled me a month and a half ago. Numerous messages to remind me through MyChart. Called last night to confirm appointment. I had made accommodations for childcare and missing work. Pull into the parking deck and get a call 16 minutes before my appointment time to advise that I no longer needed my appointment. Quite annoyed that it seemed comical to the caller. After a few bad experiences involving Cleveland Clinic: neglect, poor communication, lack of concern, etc I will be receiving my care elsewhere.
