Go *anywhere* else for your medical treatment. Save yourself from the horror show haunting the last half year of my life. A. This hospital has unspoken fees totaling hundreds per visit simply for having appointments on-site; Mine took a $50 bill to $750 simply for having an in-person appointment (a "facility" fee). B. They will double and triple charge for the same appointments after already accepting payment. They also clearly lack attention to detail by coding the exact same procedure multiple different ways for insurance and refusing to admit any error. You will lose hundreds to thousands of dollars more than anticipated. The call centers are useless and rude to boot. I have switched all my care to Tufts Medical Center and have never had an issue, while I'm still being charged a 3rd time for appointments from half a year ago at BIDMC. Stay away. The quality of the care is a complete non-factor when faced with these issues. I truly wish I had just lived with the pain. A simple doctors visit has turned into a multi-month ordeal.

I went to the main hospital today for an out-patient urgent care visit. I had a severe back injury and got excellent care. The hospital was busy, and Covid precautions are are still maintained, but the wait to be seen was not excessive and every staff person who saw me was kind and patient. I was offered (and accepted) a wheel chair for managing the distance between floors and units. It is true that parking is very expensive and that’s unfortunate, as finding alternatives is not easy, but it’s not a reason to avoid this hospital.

The parking is outrageously expensive and dishonest. I waited over 5 hours for my daughter to get a bed and till I could see her after surgery Very ignorant and inconsiderate. The staff are very friendly patient and helpful. Do better with moving patients after surgery. Worse I have ever experienced. No one should have to go thru this.

I have been going to BETH ISRAEL for many years and I have no complaints. Find the doctors to be very efficient in there field. It is convenient for me to get there.

This hospital is just waste of time. I had very bad experience twice. I’m still in pain but they don’t care they said they don’t have time for my surgery. Obgyn is not good and their nurses are Unexperienced and careless.

I had a good experience my first two weeks in the hospital but after that, my experience was terrible. I did not get my meals on time and my wife had to frequently look for my meals. Nurses stopped payiny attention to my requests for help and left me soaking in my urine for 2 or more hours. The MAs man-handled me and my surgeon stopped seeing me after the first week. My daughter had to call the Director of Nursing to file a complaint about the poor nursing. I recommend that NO ONE use this hospital.
