This is an update on another review that I posted in this thread:

If you are a consumer who has been reading through all of these reviews, you know that Richmond University Medical Center has quite a negative reputation. In fact, if you are a resident of Richmond County, NY, you may have needed to go to this hospital yourself, and you may even be one of the people who have written a negative review of the horrific experiences at this hospital. It makes Richmond County s healthcare look like it flew south for the winter. Anyway, this update is being posted through my second account, since I ran out of space on my other review, that s how bad this place was and likely still is.

To further elaborate, you may have noticed that on almost all of those bad reviews, R.U.M.C s owner replies by saying Please call the Patient Relations Hotline so we can address your concerns more directly. Three words: Do, Not, Bother. They won t answer, even during their supposed hours of operation . Believe me, I have tried. This place needs to be under new management or something, because this is a nightmare for Staten Islanders who need help.

As for some of the negative reviews of seen, and believe me, they go on for miles, some have claimed that unlawful activity has taken place by RUMC and it s staff, such as HIPPA violations.

For those of you witness or are a victim of HIPPA violations by RUMC staff, you can report it to the United States Federal Bureau of Investigations by calling your local FBI office.
