Wright Patterson Medical Center Review

Great Medical Center on Wright-Patterson Air Force Base.

They aren't helping me. I tried to call and schedule an appointment but they hung up on me!:( Very frustrated

Completely unhappy with all staff. A family member of mine has been having issues for over a year and a half now. The issues were critical. There is no reason this should have ever happened.

I went in simply to schedule my baby s one year check up. But they were actually able to get us an appointment for the same day! We killed an hour (and enjoyed the Wednesday lunch-time food trucks in the parking lot) and came back. They took us in right on time. And the tests and shots he needed afterwards were easily taken care of - little to no wait!

Also, Nurse Hallock will take good care of you if you ever have to visit the ER!

I used to love this hospital...but it has gone down hill. I recommend, if you want proper care AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COST!!!

Have been going to WPMC for 2 years they have been very considerate and polite.

You can not reach any of the clinic by phone. The phone you receive from information disk just route back to the same main Medical Center phone. The command needs to take a look at their phone system. I just want to get the fix number to Internal Med Clinic A to fix important information for my provider. The Med Center is not you user family it patients.. Need to do a review to fix this problem.

I have always received EXCEPTIONAL care from my providers. I have always been treated with respect , dignity, and professionalism. I feel as though I am an active participant in my treatment and my concerns are always addressed. I have been receiving treatment at WPAFB Medical Center for 22 years and have always been pleased.

Lack of professionalism, unorganized, and frankly in need of more training. I m glad I can pay for a private physician.

My dad has some sort of appointments every two weeks testing blood and things like that. I'm glad they are taking good care of him, but they tend to brush off things as well like my dad telling them he has the itchy skin every night, and trouble falling asleep. They just keep on giving him medication. I think he is on about 15 different ones now.

I've been going to WPMC for 17 years now. The staff for the most part are very professional and polite. Although, the ER staff (particularly the receptionist) are always very short with people and not very friendly, but if I worked in an ER for years, I'd probably hate my job, too. Both my sisters have PCOS. Their doctors (two different doctors) didn't diagnose them for years because "woman problems are supposed to be painful." Yeah...cramping does hurt, but bursting cysts on your ovaries sounds a bit more painful. The dental staff are very good! Same with the optometry staff. All staff take mental health very seriously, which is very helpful since military life isn't easy. Overall, this is a great hospital.

The doc I just fell in love with him... wow he is very good with kids. I love how he interacts with them. God bless him and the staffs that work with him..

Great ER staff and Clinics. However, Capt. K. whom mans the ER check-in./ Triage is rude and perhaps a bit arrogant. This opinion is shared by a few others as well.

Think the personnel and staff are competent, caring and professional. Do seem to have problem issue with communication sharing. One nurse or staff members ideas, thoughts or actions taken are not shared across the group. One doctor or nurse says one thing, however the next nurse or doctor didn't know about it. You have to tell the exact same information to every person you speak with and hope that they all are seeing the same problem or issue of why you are there.

It is the Wright-Patterson Medical Center General Hospital with advanced equipment, excellent and friendly medical team, and a first-class hospital with a comfortable environment.

Always take very good care of my issues & thorough!

I've been seen at 9 different med facilities over my 22 years. First time I feel compelled to leave a review. Shitiest MTF I've ever had to work with. The only reason I give them the two stars: pharmacy well stocked/staffed, and in some cases you can get referrals to excellent facilities in the area.

They take care of those that put there time in taking care of all.

my girlfriend has been having gallbladder problems for close to the last year. shes been in the emergency room because of those problems on multiple occasions, so they almost certainly know that its her gallbladder. instead of getting the problems dealt with though, they're having her wait for over a MONTH, for an endoscopy (which shes already had one of for the issues). this hospital has been so unhelpful that, honestly, we arent even going to attempting to get it dealt with here anymore. I would rate zero stars at this point, if possible, but it isn't.

Well , to begin I was trying to set up an appointment to have an MRI done for my knee kept Calling trying to make an appointment they kept telling me they do not have my referral so I asked can I just bring you my referral since I have it , and they said no !! . so again two weeks have went by still no appointment still in pain still no referral . Well, I finally had the MRI done so then I had to go back to Wright Patt for a visit with an orthopedic surgeon. To start off with the gentleman at the desk gave me wrong directions and secondly when I finally got to orthopedics the guy behind the desk was very rude and then told me I had to go to x-ray. I didn t know where x-ray was so he did tell me how to get there very rudely. got to x-ray the lady was very sweet . So When I got back to orthopedics I walk into the room AND the first thing I hear from one of the two guys behind the desk was a reply( she s back) . The first guy that was very rude to me just asked if I filled out the paper so I said yes and I handed it to him then he gives me a real snarly remark( thanks ). The doctor that I end up seeing was nice but I don t think I will go back to Wright Patt I had to miss a days work and drive over an hour because I live approximately 55 miles away from Wright Patt and since they have a right to first refusal this is what I have to put up with I know the facility is not trying to make money it s just trying to provide A service. I have to spend all day to go to a doctor and get treated this way I rather pay out of pocket and not miss work so I really don t like Wright Patt and I think they need to do something to change their service and the workers attitudes.

I retired from the AF in 1992, my wife and I use the Med center for everything and are very happy with most everything. A glitch now and then but you get that anyplace,. I had total knee replacement two years ago and Dr, Wild was fantastic. On behalf of my wife and I, THANK YOU WRIGHT-PATTERSON MED CENTER.

I have received nothing short of excellent care from any provider I have seen. I am thankful to have such a quality facility

Terrible experience with his staff.refused to let me have follow up exam after surgery until I was seen by mental health doctor.have suffered since.

If you are not educated enough in Medicine to know when they do something wrong, Don't go here

The ermergency room section is 0it of touch with realty. I went in with a high temp and visual infections open wounds. Waited 2 hours and was not. Scene. Left and went to green memorial in xenia ohio. Wasseen right away and have been through surgery and am now in a rehab center. If I would have waited for wright pat and I would probably be dead

This is a horribly run operator ion from an active duty patient s perspective. The appointment lines never work. Anytime I try to call and make an appointment or reach anybody else such as the referral office the line just goes dead. I ve got two referrals in the system for medical issues that I m concerned about and no way to make appointments for them. It s always been like this. Do I have to show up at the emergency room to get something looked at?

Doctor John Steele (WPAFB), worst person ever. After misleading & convincing my parents into thinking my mother required surgery...he then also didn't have the decency to suggest that they may want a 2nd and 3rd opinion. He then goes on to botch and screw up the surgery, transforming my mother from a strong, intelligent, active, virile, powerful & independent woman into a small fraction of what she once was and now she requires 24 hours of round the clock incredibly beyond the usual type of supervision. My father has had to retire early and currently spends his every waking moment caring for her because of John Steele. We haven't even received so much as an apology from this sorry excuse for a doctor.

Horrible service all together, for example on the phone to make an appointment you could be waiting for 45 mins EASY! Cant believe people that dont serve our country get better service than military families

I was at lab clinic wasn't so busy, some how 4 peoples who came after me they're get done and left, I asked lady work at desk why I didn't get the call? She said "I don't know ~~" I wish they were more tension with what they doing .

Trying to complete our overseas screening has been a pain!! People writing wrong numbers and I keep getting the run around about paperwork that I should've had back by now. This is the closest base to us in order to complete these nonsense screenings to go overseas. We have primary doctors in town but nope unfortunately the branch my husband is currently in is adamant about us having to be screened on a military installation. We have to drive an hour and 20 minutes both ways to go there and we have children to travel with so needless to say I hope this is my husband's ONLY overseas tour in his career. #frustrated

Had to take my 4 year old here, I have zero complaints and Major Goleta treat jay like he was her own.

The staff was great for the FCI physical. They kept us moving and didn't waste anytime.

The Air Force has taken care of us especially my wife over the past 50 years. The service and dedicated staff are next to none. Especially the Wright Patterson staff over the 32 years. We Salute you all.

You defended this country for 22 years and because a pair of glasses break you can t get another pair? What happens if I m in combat I can t see the enemy then what?

Wonderful Facility. I have been apart of it since the age of five, as a dependent. My family has had nothing but quality care!

While the medical staff are pretty great, (although, it's hard to be seen by a "real" doctor--usually a PA or NP) it's absolutely ridiculous that the pharmacy hours are so limited. They need to be open later and they need to be open until at least noon on Saturdays. Also, they KICK YOU OUT OF THE LOBBY if you're there at 5:00, even if you've been in there waiting an hour. They really DO NOT care about their patients. Additionally, the referral process could use some work. But, again, having said all that, the actual medical personnel (doctors, surgeons and nurses) that I've dealt with and been treated by have been pretty great.

Very profesional and clean. they had me in and out in just a few hours (My appointment was extensive). I dont usually go to medical centers but this was was very pleasant.

I usually use the VA for all of my medical care,but I was sent to the Dental clinic at Wright-Patt, and was very pleased with the care,top notch all the way.
