Woodhull Medical And Mental Health Center: "I'm receiving treatment in Woodhull Hospital for about three years.My doctor prescribe me compression stocks for my leg condition. She wrote a incomplete prescription and a went to the hospital for a new prescription.After half a day waiting,they told me that I have to como the next day for the prescription because the doctor was with a patient. They call me at home the same day and told 9me the prescription is ready, and I can go tomorrow to pick up. Although I explain like six or five time de same to fife or six different persons, after four hours waiting,somebody told me I have to come the next day because the nurse was busy.If they call me I'm assume that the prescription was ready .Why you had to wait for that.The staff is very incompetent,the patient have to wait innecesarily.Because of that incident and others situations I'm not recommend that hospital." - Irma
