My friend got charged 10k for going to Christ hospital thinking he needed stitches. They ended up just cleaning the wound and sending him home. Got a bill for 10k, would avoid at all costs

I walked by it the other day, and I thought it was hysterical that they put brown paper in the windows so people can’t snoop in on the dirt floor anymore

They will literally kill your loved ones. F that. I’d rather go to Hackensack

It was almost 2 years ago. Will be 2 years in march since the incident happened. He was severely constipated. Like 30bs of brick. The reason I took him in was because he was lethargic pale and had coca cola colored urine. We knew he was constipated as he's been seeing a specialist for over 4 years for his bowel issues. He screamed "no enema" when he came to finally and they treated me like complete crap, drug tested him, and then gave me an enema to go home with. I took him to christ right after that. And christ hospital doctor pulled a large plug of poop out with her fingers. The next day cpa came and aaod medical center called because my son was afraid of enemas. They dismissed my case after I released medical records and they asked him embarrassing questions. After that I had to take him to medical center again as his sugar plummeted again and ye was vomiting what appeared to be poop. They said they didn't have the means to care for him and called an ambulance to take us to Newark Beth Isreal. Where they put an NG tube and cleared him out. Medical Center is not equipped to handle children. The doctor wasn't even reading the labs correctly as she was going off of adult normals. I will never trust them again with my son.

No, do not go with Daniel Lin. He has missed a lot of obvious problems at my inspection.

Agree with Englewood or Hackensack, in general. Specifically have taken my child to pediatric specialists at Hackensack and had good experience.

I’m so sorry this happened with your son. It’s a horrible feeling to have doubts or not be able to trust someone treating your child. (Been there.) Was wondering when this happened? Only because people have been saying JCMC has gotten “better”, so I was wondering if this was recent.

We had a great experience with Dan. He inspected two properties for us in JC and we found his reports to be accurate and thorough. And we used different agents for each transaction so there didn’t seem to be a relationship issue there but I guess based on other comments not everyone was so lucky.

> atleast hoboken retains a shred of its character.

Are you taking about cultural character of architectural character?

I’m not saying Hoboken doesn’t have character, but it is much more culturally homogeneous than JC, even if you only compare it to downtown JC. Hoboken is overwhelmingly populated with upper middle class people, which is a group that you seem to abhor.

Hoboken has done a better job at historic preservation, but the tangible benefits of that success primarily accrue to wealthy property owners and landlords, which is another group of people you seem to detest.

I have mixed feelings.

Jersey City Medical Center wouldn't help my son with his severe issue. We went to christ after rhe the doctor went in manually and fixed his issue foe the time being. She did the dirty work that JCMC wouldn't do.

Now I've had three relatives go to christ and die. One passed away when she didn't have to. The hospital failed to check her liver enzymes. The hospital itself is dirty but some of the doctors and nurses are amazing. And some are ehh..

Same with most hospitals. My advice? Go to Englewood or Hackensack.

3rd on UBL roofing, they’re the best roofers in JC hands down

I almost died and they patched me up so I can't say anything bad lol

Does the sellers agent real estate agency start with a W?

Ah, that sucks. Real estate is a scummy profession with terrible ethics standards and limited disclosures on conflicts. I’d name the agent — or the brokerage they worked for at least — so people are aware since it’s a small market with a lot of repeat players.

The whole Carepoint thing is a horrorshow but there's good doctors and other caregivers in the system. But to a large extent these hospitals exist to get Medicaid dollars from people who don't have many options. Most of the non-emergent patients to Hoboken Hospital come from poor North Hudson areas.

I realized that it’s better to go to Manhattan if you need emergency services than in JC, Hoboken, or Bayonne if you can.

Similar issues here. Very nice guy but he missed some stuff that he shouldn't have. It was very disappointing.

I would go to Englewood or Hackensack but my primary care doctor is a gem and based out of Christ hospital. And to be fair they were recently taken over by Engelwood....and they seem to be trying to make it better. The previous owners were venture capital vultures who saddled it with debt while charging consulting fees to the hospital but controlled those very companies.

Your idea of partying is illegally modifying your car and running red lights and driving down the wrong side of the road? Your parties SUCK.

I’ve found this to be the case too.

Christ is part of CarePoint Health so I wouldn’t be surprised if your insurance covers all (or a lot of CarePoint)

cool personal story!

What does any of this have to do with your question about how people can afford to buy property if they have no skills?

He also didn't recognize flooding issues in my house. Lost of lot of fucking money because of it.
