Although my mother generally receives decent (not excellent) care at this hospital, the staff and administrators recently, and very badly, fell down on the job. My mother was being treated by a neurologist affiliated with the hospital for several years. His name is Dr. Donald Pennett. Last year, Dr. Pennett literally disappeared in the middle of the night, with no notice. He also absconded with all of his patients' records, so my mother has no record of her condition or treatment. The hospital was absolutely NO HELP in this matter, despite numerous requests for information or assistance. The administrators just clammed up. I also now wonder if Dr. Pennett was being supervised correctly, as there have been numerous patient complaints about his treatment methods.

So, beware.
