My sister went in to have brain surgery. They did not give her pain relief the ENTIRE NIGHT following her surgery, bc the floor was under staffed and she wasn't listened to. She was writhing and crying out for help, begging for help, and not even a Tylenol was given. They gave excuses such as checking for cognitive ability but I clearly know of others who had brain surgery who were given pain relief and they had no issues checking their abilities. There needs to be standards made for ALL doctors to follow for mandated pain relief for their patients. This âbelief' that a patient doesn't need pain relief or narcotics is insane and barbaric. Let's give the doctor the brain surgery and see how he feels afterwards?! Shall we? There is a time and place for narcotics and I dare say it was after this particular excruciating surgery! Medicating for 2 days will not cause addiction! My sisters trust and the entire families trust has been broken. We will encourage EVERYONE WE KNOW to avoid this hospital bc their issues are deep seated and won't be realized for quite some time.

This was the worse experience I ever had in my life. They did not include me in my own treatment and wouldn’t answer questions and were abusive.

The worst hospital to go to. make sure you have a cemetery plot before having surgery. Some of the Doctors should be grave diggers.

Spent 10 hours in a waiting room chair and never got to see the specialist. I was dehydrated and exhausted and left there feeling twice as bad as when I arrived. People lined up like sardines in the halls and waiting rooms. They just leave you for hours on end with no communication. The doctor was so rude and uncaring and he literally wants you to leave without treatment. On top of all that, the place is so dirty and they draw blood and treat people out in the open. I would leave zero stars but there were some staff members who were wonderful and working their tails off while others not so much. They need to work on communication and transparency with their patients. Seems more like a money making scheme than a hospital.

Brian chung Surjanhata is the worst GI doctor Ive ever had. He doesn’t care about his patients and is fine with his gastroparesis patients suffering as long as its not severe enough to need a feeding tube. Even though I might need one in the future he couldn’t care less. MGH refuses to let me see another GI doctor because they don’t allow you to change providers. Worst care ever.
