Review of JFK Medical Center

Horrible experience, and a horrible healthcare facility! Doctor at one of their satellite freestanding ER facilities did not know how to read an EKG, and told me it was abnormal. I ended up being transported to JFK Hospital and admitted. When I finally saw a Cardiologist, they told me the EKG was perfectly normal. The hospital administrator that I told this to, made excuses for the ER doctor "well he is not a Cardiologist". Are you kidding me, Russell?? On top of that, the food is barely edible, and certainly not nutritious enough to aid in the healing of sick patients. I wish the state would come in and look at the vitamin and mineral content of the food they are serving. Then, the nurse who discharged me forgot to give me prescription written by the doctor, so the next day I got a call at home by the Director of Nursing asking if I wanted to pick them up. I am a former executive of an Investment Banking Firm in NYC. As a service to the community, I would fire the Director of Nutrition, Nursing, and the ER Doctor at the Boynton Beach satellite location. It's no wonder healthcare costs are skyrocketing out of control!
