  2. Worst billing department, will keep you on hold for an hour or more and send you harassing bills every month even though you have health insurance. Reps also hang up on you and do not call back. How do expect to get paid if you give dieing patients a hard time like this every month??

  29. Had the pesto shrimp and it was very good. We also had shrimp fried rice which was tasty. HOWEVER, we also tried the southwest stuff pepper and it was well below expectations. Dry and not much taste. I would recommend at the very least some tomato sauce that could be added. Also … chicken in this dish would make it MUCH better.

  30. This place helped saved my life!!! I was diagnosed with a very serious cancer with little chance of survival. The Doctors are brilliant and exhaust every viable option.

  46. The care I received at MSKCC in pre surgical, post surgical recovery and patient room was incomparable. The attention to detail and cleanliness excellent. The nurses, technicians and housekeeping staff are detailed and compassionate. I felt comfortable and confident I was getting the best care and a safe environment.

  47. First… you have to understand the danger and severity of cancer, even when going to one of the world’s best cancer treatment hospitals. It is a viscious, miserable disease, and the fact that it takes the lives of “even the rich and …

  48. MSKCC has a great international reputation for cancer care. I was considering a research fellowship at this institution and had a chance to visit. The facilities were top notch and the environment seemed academically intense but not overly …

  49. This hospital is beautiful the nurses. Are so nice. I don’t know anything about the Drs because I was never in contact with them the times I’ve been up to see my Aunt. I heard it’s one of the best hospitals for cancer. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽. Let’s keep praying for my Aunt …

  50. Dr seems nice office staff is awful. No compassion from this place I’m a Registered Nurse. I would never speak to cancer patients or any patients like the way Sloan does . They think they are the number one cancer center meanwhile they have …

  51. Unprofessional , lack of customer service … also there was a homeless man that got into the waiting area and there was a lack of security to handle situation… how did he get in anyway ? Plus he took off his shoes , rubbed his feet and left his socks on the chairs ….the workers just looked at him …

  52. Highly not recommend! They only take a certain insurance and when you offer to pay out of pocket; when you offer to transfer from another hospital they give you such a hard time. Most people answering the phones are not trained properly …

  53. This is one of the best hospitals in the region. The doctors here are direct and communicative and explain things well. The PAs are just as skilled and very compassionate; one performed “good-bye” rounds at the end of the day during their …

  54. Everyone in the hospital, everyone, the valet guy, clerks, nurses and doctors are completely committed to patients health, the moral support and encouragement to keep fighting kept me positive at all times. Best people I ever meet.
    Notably, they also doing a great job – they fixed me!

  55. Nurses are wonderful and that says it all. They are competent but always willing, helpful and are able to keep a smile and a greeting. Nurses run hospitals so if they are good we are good

  56. They left my very alert, conscious and DYING grandfather in the hallway for 24 hours when he was initially admitted to be treated for mesothelioma. After he was discharged, he refused to ever go back to this hospital. He then received much better treatment at a state run hospital in Elmhurst…

  62. I had a very good experience at this hospital. Everyone was really nice and caring. I was even asked if I needed a social worker.

  63. I have only praise for this hospital, and all of the staff that I encountered there, from pre-surgery through to my discharge after a stay as an in-patient. Physicians, nurses, therapists, ward aides – people in all positions – were …

  72. These people are insane. They sent me home to soon after a major surgery, I ended up back in the hospital again. The second hospital I went to said they should have never sent me home. I guess it’s all about the paper. $$$

  73. I had uterine cancer 21 years ago. I was a patient at Memorial in NYC. Everyone that worked thare were the kindest, caring employees of any hospital or place that I have ever had an interaction with in business or medicine. Couldn’t find better doctors or staff anywhere. Thank you Memorial.

  77. This place is the major leagues of cancer technology. If you have to be here this is where you want to be. I wasn’t sir, buddy, pal or a number. I was Mr and/or my first name. They either train their staff to be that good or pay them more. …

  83. This is the bastion of Cancer Care when Memorial Sloan Kettering was founded. As the landmarked outside of the building shows, it has been around since the early 1900’s, late 1800’s. Oh, take the IRT 6 Train to 68th Street and walk North on …

  96. The outpatient centers are excellent. Doctors, nurses and staff are professionals from A to Z. In patient is a different story. Nothing bad to say about the doctors but dealing with the nurses and aids is worse than cancer. What a horrible experience!

  99. All good. I worked in a hospital on Long Island. Let’s just say that MSK seems to have all their ducks in a row. Fortunately I was ambulatory and it was as pleasant an experience as could be expected. Wish they had a full service hospital on the island.

  100. No coordination of care amongst the various doctors caring for my father, (and my mother, when she was there — she passed away a few months ago). No pro-active care, it is very hard to get answers, or even to ask questions. When my mother …

  102. There are not enough words to say about this hospital. The doctors, nurses and staff members are super human, in my opinion. The patience and level of care they provide is simply unbelievable. The training provided to every staff member …

  103. Staff are courteous and very helpful! MSK is so huge that it can be intimidating. MSK has an indoor parking garage, the entrance is on 66th Street, with an underground tunnel connecting to the hospital’s main lobby on York Ave! The parking …
