Northwell HealthReviews of northwell.edu

Worst ever. Does not allow you to message your MDs. Does not interface with other hospitals. Has two different sites for different issues. Horrible

Fun fact: in 2023, the CEO of Northwell Health made $7.8 million dollars. I make a heck of a lot less than that, and despite having insurance, I lost approximately 2% of my annual salary to a late-night emergency room visit during which the doctor visually inspected me and determined that I had a stress facture, not a deep-vein thrombosis. I was with the doctor for less than ten minutes. No diagnostic tests or medical interventions were performed--I did not receive so much as a single aspirin. Nevertheless, Northwell Health attempted to extract roughly $5000 from my insurance company. When my insurance company didn't cough up this outrageous sum in full, the balance fell on me. The individual health care providers at Northwell Health may be decent, but the people running the place are disgusting bottom feeders who would push their own grandmothers down the stairs if they thought they'd get five bucks out of it. If you use Northwell Health, do so with extreme caution; get a billing estimate before you receive treatment, document everything, and be prepared to get bent over a barrel anyway at the end of it all.

This is the second year in a row that Northwell Health Labs is sending me bogus medical bills for annual physical lab work that is covered 100% by my insurance. They never responded to my attempts at resolution, and instead sent those bogus bills to a collection agency. Find other options if you value your time and your money.

IN MY OPINION: Besides misdiagnosing my condition, (IN MY OPINION) by many of the neurological "doctors" and performing irrelevant (IN MY OPINION) tests (including a spinal tap), -a follow-up appointment that I scheduled 3 months in advance -was cancelled by Northwell 2 weeks prior to the appointment!!!!!! This is NOT Healthcare (IN MY OPINION)
