Dr. Karim Sleiman MD

STUDENTS BE WARNED. I'm a local college student and after a physical checkup was recommended by my doctor to have an EKG done. He said it wasn't a necessity but would "just be a good thing to know about." I said that I would only do it if insurance would cover it entirely. I'm 21 years old and didn't know how to check that sort of thing myself, the doctor assured me that I would not have to pay anything and it would be totally covered, so I believed him. Flash forward to now and I'm facing a $1300 bill for a procedure I never even needed in the first place. I tried to appeal the bill, but the hospital denied it. Lesson learned: DO NOT TRUST ANYONE IN THE HOSPITAL WHEN IT COMES TO MONEY.

Everyone at Tufts was great. They make informed decisions on your behalf to help you stay safe. For that observation, they get five stars because keeping people safe is their number one priority. Otherwise, the place was impeccably clean, the staff were all super, and I was pretty much was asleep the whole time.

I'm writing this review on behalf of my Dad who recently underwent invasive skin cancer surgery at Tufts Medical Center. Our entire family couldn't be more pleased with the outcome and the care he received. From start to finish, the entire process was handled with the utmost professionalism and compassion. In particular, we can't say enough positive things about his surgeon, Dr. Jawad, who was not only incredibly skilled but also took the time to explain everything clearly - putting my Dad at ease. He is truly a gifted and genuinely kind and caring person. We are immensely grateful for Dr. Jawad and his highly supportive staff.

Bad experience with the hospital with multiple situations. They book my son appointment and change the date without call me. They also book an echocardiogram for my son and I told them that he needs to be put to sleep for this procedure but they didn’t listen to me. When we arrive to the appointment sure enough they can’t do the echocardiogram because he won’t stay still. Wasted my time and money for a procedure I told them that would not work.

I just want to take the opportunity to share my experience at Tufts Medical Center. We went to Tufts because our neurosurgeon, Dr Ron Reisenberger is located here. My wife had neck surgery last October and I just had back surgery last on Tuesday. I cannot say enough about the employees at this facility. Along with the med surg nurses, recovery room nurses the staff nurses, med techs and other support staff. I couldn’t help notice how they worked as a team, helping each other to offer the best health care possible. My surgial team was amazing. Starting with Dr. Reisenberger, who has great bed side manor. Is very caring and a fantastic neurosurgeon. The operating room staff were friendly, kind, and professional. As the saying goes “ when the only thing you have to complain about is the food, it’s time to go home .” To the staff at Tufts, keep it up we do notice what you do and are very appreciative for all you do, Rick and Denise Noseworthy
