Robyn Drake Review of UTMB

If I could give zero stars I would. DO NOT GO TO UTMB if you want to be diagnosed and treated correctly. 2013 my husband was diagnosed with a cancerous tumor in his kidney. The internist referred him to an oncologist who we find out is an OB-GYN! I think it is a mistake and call and the person on the other line laughed with me about it and put me on hold. 5 mins later she comes back and says "no that was not a mistake, his internist wants him to see the OB-GYN" We cancelled the appt and went to MD Anderson where they know what they are doing. He is 3 yrs cancer free.
Now 3 yrs later my husband has an accident stepping in a hole and 2 days later he cannot walk. We go to UTMB (our 2nd mistake) where they admitted him for 6 days running all kinds of tests but can not figure out why he cannot walk. They send him to physical therapy for 6 weeks for his knee which only had a minor tear. The 5 teams of doctors could not figure out that the huge bulging disc in his T10 had cut off the nerves to his legs leaving him unable to walk. We found a REAL doctor who took 5 mins to diagnose him (with UTMB's MRI) and surgically corrected it and now he can walk normally again. Like I said if you value your health DO NOT TRUST THE IDIOTS AT UTMB!!!!
