Mika Solange WEZAGO: People there are very nice

Church Secretary: All the people you interact with at the Pregnancy Care Center are kind, caring and genuine. They want the best for women and their babies.

Lauren Frazer_: The Pregnancy Care Center is very welcoming.I find the staff are caring and compassionate as they support women and couples who need help making  decisions about their pregnancies.

Sheena Graham: The Pregnancy Care Center is an organization committed to assisting those with unplanned pregnancies. The staff is warm, friendly and sincere. The very environment has a way of setting you at ease. Their work in the community is commendable. They offer counseling and support by way of clothing and much more to assist expectant mothers. So glad this organization is a part of the Lowell community.

Brian Murphy: It was such a wonderful experience having Dashanna as our doula.It had been many years since we had a child and both of us had had experiences we didn’t want to revisit.Having Dashanna help with planning, strategies, and information went great. Even though we thought we had everything planned out, we still had an emergency birth and Dashanna’s assistance with planning paid off so the experience focused on my wife and child and Dashanna was only a speed dial away.I can’t speak highly enough about the attention to detail, planning and communication was with Dashanna and how great the birth went.I highly recommend Dashanna, not only for her expertise but for piece of mind during an overwhelming event.

Sarah Holmes Berk: We hired Dashanna as a postpartum doula, and she was wonderful! This was our first baby, so we weren’t sure what to expect or how well we would adjust. I know Dashanna would be a good fit from the start, when she acknowledged that the fourth trimester can be HARD while also reassuring me that we could do it and enjoy it.Our baby came three weeks early, and Dashanna gave us great input on what to expect (even though we had not hired her as a prenatal doula). It was wonderful to have a trusted third party available to give feedback as we responded to the doctor’s recommendations.Dashanna’s visits postpartum were really helpful. She was so good with our daughter and gave us the opportunity to spend time together and catch up on chores and self-care. It was also so wonderful to talk to another young mom, as I haven’t made any parent friends yet. She had great tips for newborn care without being pushy in the least.I really can’t say enough good things about Dashanna! Highly recommend her services, especially if you are nervous about entering parenthood. And check out her childbirth education class, which I reviewed in March.

Maura Giannattasio: My husband and I took Dashanna's Not Ya Mama's Childbirth Education class. Dashanna has a wealth of knowledge which she shares with expecting parents in an approachable and nurturing way. Her warmth and humor helped us to feel immediately at ease, which allowed us to absorb the information, ask questions, and confidently prepare a birth plan. When it came time to have our baby we felt prepared for anything thanks to her!

Emily Bruno: Great comprehensive and fun class! Would definitely recommend to expectant parents.

Notonmywatch: I honestly felt robbed of having a doula experience with Dashanna. I wish things were different and I thought she would get better but I felt so alone in her care. The moment she missed the birth of our baby is the moment I knew I should’ve picked someone else as a doula. I know things happen but that was what I was expecting her to be there for. Birth! I should’ve asked for a refund but I know times are hard and God will provide. Maybe the other reviews are paid but the whole time I felt neglected.

Kelli Shaw: Words can’t describe how amazing working with Dashanna has been. From our very first video chat she immediately put me at ease. She vibrates with an energy that is so warm and joyful, you can truly tell she has found her passion working in this field. Dashanna was with us for our birth, as well as postpartum care, and I am so grateful. After having two babies naturally, I felt wholly unprepared for my scheduled c-section. Dashanna was always there to listen to my concerns before hand and helped educate us on what our c-section would look like. Unfortunately, babies have their own plans and our girl came 3 weeks early via emergency c-section. Dashanna was right there with us, holding my hand and also supporting my husband for the surgery and after birth for the first feeding. Coming home after a c-section, our twice weekly visits with Dashanna were a blessing. Her love and support for whatever we needed each day were absolutely invaluable. Just knowing that I had that extra support and having someone to tell me “yes this is hard but you’re doing great” has made this transition into the fourth trimester so much easier for our family. Dashanna we cannot thank you enough for all the care you’ve give to us and we are so grateful to have found a new friend in you!

Karen DeVincent: Dashanna is the absolute best. She kept us calm before our child arrived, was a lifesaver in the hours after they were born and rushed into the NICU, and provided much-needed support in the months to follow. Dashanna's deep peri/postpartum knowledge coupled with her high level of emotional intelligence makes her a great fit for any parent seeking a high level of care. We would enthusiastically recommend Dashanna to support any parent(s) as they expand their family. Dashanna is a very special person and we feel lucky to have found her.

Natalie S: My husband and I took her Childbirth Education class and it was so helpful - we learned a lot, but more importantly, I'm freaking out less. Dashanna is really the perfect person for this - she's super knowledgeable but also very comfortable and warm to chat with. Highly recommend!

Sherene Davidson: Having Dashanna as my doula was the greatest resource during my pregnancy, and initially, I was not sure what more I could learn from a Childbirth Education Class. However, there is always more to be learned! The group class was great because this forum provided more people to ask excellent questions that I hadn't thought to ask. The class and materials were thoughtful, organized, and beyond informative. I highly recommend - especially if you think there isn't more to be learned about the the pregnancy and childbirth journey!

Abby Shain: Dashanna is SO knowledgable and easy to talk to... would recommend her Childbirth Education Class to all parents-to-be.

Jacqueline Reynolds: I hired Dashanna as my postpartum doula and I was so glad I did! I used her for both daytime and overnight care and felt completely comfortable leaving her alone to take care of my baby so that I could shower, nap, whatever I needed that day. This was my second baby so I knew what I was getting myself into, but it was still great to have her to answer random questions I had about breastfeeding/pumping, baby sleep schedules and other things I had completely forgotten about from the first time around. Would highly recommend!

Kate Wyman: Dashanna provided the most incredible support during our pregnancy, at birth and postpartum. While I have a lot of favorite qualities about Dashanna, my top is her ability to hold space. She supports every decision with kindness and grace.During our pregnancy, I felt so supported by her knowledge and caring demeanor. She gave us the answers to all of our questions, around everything from the best maternity clothes to the stages of birth. She really prepared me for my birth, which ended up being a long induction. I can still picture her beside me while I pushed our beautiful baby out! She also supported us during postpartum with our baby's 4 month developmental leap by helping us to find more structure, not to mention emotional support. Being a new parent can be challenging, and knowing that I could reach out to Dashanna when I needed help was such a comfort.Having Dashanna alongside us for the journey of birth was the best decision we could have made. I am so grateful for her!

Naychelle Lucas: Working with Dashanna as my pregnancy and Postpartum Doula was a wonderfully amazing experience!! I was so nervous about navigating my first pregnancy and didn’t feel like I was getting enough support from my OB, not to mention being pregnant at the start of the pandemic. I reached out to Dashanna and from our very first video call I felt supported, less anxious, and excited about my pregnancy journey! Throughout my entire pregnancy, I could reach out to Dashanna for any question, big or small and she was always there with help. She walked me through every trimester and taught me the stuff about pregnancy and birth that no one talks about. Dashanna was also a great resource to my husband and I as a couple. She helped him become a better birthing partner and Postpartum support.Having her as my Doula while I gave birth and visiting me at home after the hospital was invaluable. When your up with a new baby in the middle of the night and your panicking it’s so nice to know you’re not alone and Dashanna is there to help.I can’t say enough positive things about her and her services. I’ve recommended her to every pregnant woman I know!

Jennipher Terry: Dashanna gave me a ton of help when I went back to work after my second child was born; she has a great personality and she's lovely to work with! We created schedules that actually work and she helped us find excellent childcare near my husband's new job. It really freed us up to have someone with great attention to detail looking into daycares for us. Caring for Mamas offers great customized postpartum help.

Jessica Darius: I knew I wanted a doula when I had a baby and I'm so glad we chose Dashanna. My parents live far away and couldn't come help for the first week or two. Dashanna was great at the birth - helping me and my husband through labor. And she stepped in for a couple of postpartum shifts to help us get some rest until our families got into town! So glad she was our doula, she'll be a wonderful part of our birth story forever.

Love Reading: Toni and Eva Fung is one of the best at the eye care center 10/10

Nancy Katherine: I've been going to LCHC since I was a baby. I have always loved it. It used to be a small community place. Where there was a sense of COMMUNITY. Its now a massive place that's more like a hospital WITHOUT THE HOSPITALITY. I feel more like a profit than a patient/person. Im only giving it two stars cuz it is convenient having all of my Drs in one place EXCEPT they can't see each other's calendars. They constantly mess us up my medications and appointments over lap. The staff has zero accountability or customer service skills. If one drops the ball they cover for each other they've lied many times saying meds were sent when they never were. Hold times are 15 to 25 min. Wait times are ridiculous. Check in with security, check in at front desk, another desk, for them t screen you for covid and tell you where you're going even though you already know. To get to the floor you're going to and be screened yet again. They even give you an app to check in prior to AVOID THE WAIT but it just adds an extra step cuz they still make you do all the other steps.Just went to the pharmacy and they only gave me a week's worth of medication, but an appt two weeks away. I've missed days of medication before. I quit smoking and they took over a week to call in lozenges.They just don't seem to actually care. It's just about big pharma making money instead of providing good quality care.

Michele Hood: This place is terrible can never get threw waited on phone for over 2hours.The Mychart is a joke doesn't workThe tech never calls me back to get My Chart fixed so I can use it. I've been calling every day to get the issue resolved since the beginning of February. No communication what so ever. The place has really gone down hill very badly l would recommend to go somewhere else for your health care needs.

Addison Non: I take my dad to Eye Care Center this morning, n the services over there are Excellent. The Doctor n nurse are so professional, especially the one that helped my dad who name Lisa she’s super nice n professional if there are 7 stars I’m gonna give her 7 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Jess Davis: Called at 735am for a sick visit for my son....was told to bring him in at 9am or 940am. I replied 940 is good and I asked this is for today correct...she said yes!!!!...load up my son while 7 months pregnant. Only to be told that the appointment is for the following day. I don't care who you are but to not know the difference between today and tomorrow is absolutely inexcusable.... definitely removing my son from this office ASAP....this is not the first time mistakes have been made like this .

Angelina Depaulis: Legit the worst office ever, you can book an appointment online but hey don't think for half a second they'll actually answer you so your best bet honestly is FIND A NEW PCP FR or go to the er

Danese Adams: Absolutely not respectful and impolite personal. Noone recommend them. If they keep doing the same attitude everyone leave them. If you have a choice use another place, keep avoiding them.

Shawn Qu: If there has 0 rating i would give 0. I'm out of my medication. called Tuesday morning they told me going to send a message to Dr., I waited on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, I keep calling twice a day, every day got same answer. Today I called twice still no prescription. What's a medical center treating there patient like this! They're not saving people's lives. They're kill them. Don't go there. you waste your time and your life.

Yahaira Gomez: To be honest this is far the worst places to take your kids why are the inside is super clean but the outside is full of nasty needles we’re the kids walk this is unacceptable we’re is the cleaning crew and the health department ti will be send this to someone that will help please be care we’re you let your kids walk dangerously disappointed

Nachalee Cardona: Every single time I make a call I am waiting on line minimum for like 20 minutes and most of the time the person that answer the phone is the rudest and I know is not the same person everytime but most of the times they are awful. Always with attitude and the doctors are no better either, my previous psychiatrist just hung up on me when I was talking during our session because she needed to go to her next pt. Horrible experience with this place in general.

Shabeer Ayoubi: Since two years my wife want to fix her teeth in the Community Health Center but the dental department does not want to fix her teeth, always the dentist said sorry your teeth need a lots of work please make appointment in another Place. She went to another dentist in the same day they fix her teeth It’s was took only 90 minutes, Compare 2 years to 90 minutes.😢

Balan Nyorkor: The worst health care system I even known. You go for appointments and stay in the waiting area for 30mins, go in the Dr room and wait 45mins. If you run 10mins late , they cancel your appointment. When you call, after spending 20-30mins on hold they end the call from their end.

Mohammed Yasin Mohmand: No commitment to take care of patients on time. Mostly if you have an appointment at 10 you should wait for your appointment more than a hour until you get to your doctors. Very frustrating it happened to me twice and at the end they just say sorry but nothing in action to be taken to solve this problem. I am actively looking to change myself to another PCP so I do not need to come to this place again.

Elizabeth Toro: They’ll have you waiting forever with no regards to your time and the staff is unprofessional

Brent Lawrence: Had an appointment Sept 2022 and submitted proper paperwork from DMV for a handicap placard as I'm 73 and having a hard time walking any distance. Also for paperwork to have a therapy animal for my high blood pressure. Had blood work done. No follow-up! Multiple phone calls haven't been returned. I even went back in person and the receptionist said the doctor would call me. Still nothing. Looking for a new pcp now. Wish I could give negative stars.

Pep Asaph: i'm a patient in this hospital for 5 yrs now, am not too good for taking time to write a review but this one here i had to, this hospital have been so helpful and so good for taking care of my health , i would like to thank anyone who works here for a well good job done, we appreciate for all that you do for us,and may God bless you all.

Tiana Neang: Don’t trust the automatic refill for meds through the phone system !! It’s say be done by 4:00 , came at 6:30 and it hasn’t been filled yet, when I address that, even the pharmacist herself says “don’t trust that system”, seriously then what’s the point of haven’t it. So I still had to wait 25-30 mins for refill because there only one person doing refills, and the pharmacy closes by 8. So next time I just need to call ahead and speak to a person instead for refills! Lesson learned!

Coralia Polanco: Today I waited 25 mins for someone to answer the phone. Nobody did. It usually takes 10 min if you speak English and 15 for Spanish. Dental clinic is quite good but grossly understaffed.

melissa: No parking and would be dead before you can get a answer on the phone . Will be switching drs.

Samantha Delgado: This place is horrible. All it is a playing phone tag with this place they NEVER call me back, one lady was rude had an attitude and the call hung up. I can never get ahold of them when I need it most. They fail me every time I need something.

Noce: Several terrible experiences with the Hospital they are horribly disorganized and overworked. I would rather take the commuter into Boston even for an emergency! I waited 12 hours in the ER to be seen for heart related issues.. had to come back twice because they couldn’t find lab orders for blood another time..

susan santee: The wait time in Beetlejuice was shorter.

Mr. T: Been using this hospital for almost 30 years. Quite reasonable and professional. No serious complaints.

Alex DiPietro: I really wish I could give a ZERO STAR!!! They need to find a better staff I had a heart monitors, oxygen, and blood pressure cuff all attached to me. I pushed the call button in my room and waited for over an hour, and nobody came to check on me so I decided to unhook my self all the machines were going off, and I left down the hall to go to the bathroom, came back to the room and sat in my room and nobody came while I was at the bathroom because my husband was sitting in the room and said nobody showed up yet. We sat there and waited for over 20 minutes longer until i went out to track somebody down to re-hook me back up. There were three nurses sitting directly outside my room the entire time they were there when I went to the bathroom there when I came back and there when I went out to have somebody hook me back up, not even the nurses would come in to hook me back up. An EMT came in and did it instead Because not one of them moved when I ask for help. When I was outside my room there was a light that was flashing and lots of sounds that were going off in and outside my room because I was unhooked and not once did somebody check on me to make sure I was OK. I was extremely surprised considering I was in there because of my heart.

Deakins Keith: Right now the ER waiting hour is plenty for you to drive single trip from Boston to Philadelphia.

moyomie: Workers have an attitude and are in a rush. #badjob 👎👎👎 I rate 1 ☆ go to a better hospital with workers who truly care for you. They forced me to do things on my own while I was in pain #crippled + they gave me a bald emt person (I hate bald people) (he also has no eyebrows) #idontsupportcancerpatients #falopecia

Teerth Patel: Terrible wait times in the ED. There’s not enough doctors.

Susan Sweeney: I went to Lowell General after I was sent there by my Doctor because I was passing kidney stones and there was blood in my urine and it hurt to urinate. They kept me overnight and the floor nurse missed my vein therefore the machine kept going off after 3 hours another nurse changed the IV and she missed the vein as well and my machine rang all night and all morning , finally I pulled the needle out of my arm and went home and they said I left against Doctors orders. It was awful because my arm hurt so bad from them missing my vein and even my roommate buzzed them because she could not stand listening to IV machine beeping. And to make matters worse they said they would be in to change out 3x from 9 pm until 2 pm next day. What a nightmare hospital experience. I would go to Saints over Varnum any day. I would never refer anyone to Lowell General on Varnum ever. The lump and bruise after on my arm was horrid

Smerly Reynoso: If I can give a 0 star I will definitely do, If you really want good medical attention, I don't even recommend that you go to this place. I say this from my own experience. Every time I go they make me wait almost the whole night. I was in the hospital since 9:40 pm with pain in my chest and unable to breathe It was 2am and they still haven't seen me, I'm a pregnant person and they really don't give you the treatment you deserve as a patient These staff really don't care about their patients.

bethany laroche: Do yourself a favor....get air-dropped into a tent in an isolated part of very econimically poor or strife-ridden country....you'll get medical care....

Nash Bassey: Terrible terrible services. I was in the lobby for hours for my daughter. She was in so much pain. I had to live after waiting for sooooooooooooooooo long. Other parents were living in frustration with their kids.The management must be revised,

Eddie Quinn: My mom was sent to the ER by her doctor for chest pains, shortness of breath and light headedness with a history of atherosclerosis and diabetes. Her doctor knew it was a heart issue. She went to the ER and sat for 7 hours without seeing anyone. 7 HOURS...with those symptoms. She ended up seeing a cardiologist the next day and was rushed via ambulance into Boston for a triple bypass.We are now on hour two of waiting for post HEART SURGERY shortness of breath and tightness in the ER.This is unacceptable and the state needs to step in here.

Herculean G: The fat lady in the reception is so rude and doesn’t care to answer any of your questions. Painful wait time’s and no staff to deal with patients

Calvin Fritz: Sitting in the ER now for 5 hours waiting to be seen with internal bleeding! Looks like there are still 6 patients still ahead of me!! This place is the worst!!! Now 6 hours and waiting!

Julie Newman: I went to the ED for an eye issue that turned out to be harmless. The tech, nurse, and doctor were all so kind and never made me feel bad for being there. While long waits are expected in ERs nowadays, I really didn't wait that long. The tech who roomed me was very nice, the nurse was professional and kind, and the doctor was encouraging and really made me feel better about something I thought was terrible but was very routine. I thank all the hardworking staff at this hospital.

Mama Bear: Labor and Delivery & Pediatric Unit: Everyone at LGH was amazing from the person who changed my trash all the way up to the doctors. I cannot say enough good things about both this hospital’s L&D dept and pediatric unit. If I could give them 100 stars I would. My baby’s room in the pedi unit had a bed & a shower for me to use which was a huge plus. The doctors are privy to all the most advanced science. Delayed cord clamping is standard. Their lactation help is top notch as well. The only thing I didn’t like was that LGH doesn’t have a photographer who comes in to take baby’s hospital photos but that was no biggie because I did my own photos while we were there lol. I can’t say anything about the rest of the hospital but I can say that LGH is THE place to have your baby at.

Marina Wong: I had an elective test done before I moved down to FL. The doctor and the nurses were very nice and explained the procedures to me in detail.

Zafar Nizami: 6 hours ER wait and counting. The people ahead of me have been waiting literally 12 hours. How is this acceptable? Can you even call this an organization? I also don’t need the LGH rep commenting on this post telling me to call patient relations. Reform your hospital first. Never have I waited several hours to get seen at an ER. Unreal.

Dan Sloan: Great nursing staff. Could get rid of the useless paper mask mandates, but the nurses were very nice

B.Bhargav sreekaR: The worst kind of experience I’ve ever had in a ER. The reason anyone would visit ER is coz of the emergency. And irrespective of the emergency you’ve got the staff here are carefree and doesn’t even have the empathy factor they need when working in a health care. Had to wait more than 5 hours for my friend’s case of severe pain in the chest near heart. Recommended for people with great patience level and if you still got to visit this place better carry your phone charger, and essentials to continue with your sleep. The reviews speaks up for the hospital.

R Business: I’m a current patient 11 weeks pregnant & haven’t been seen yet by dr or ultrasound. I’ve called multiple times since I found out I was pregnant at 7 weeks and I’m transfer to Katrina who never answers the phone. I left more than 3 voicemails and she never call back. Very disappointed. will go somewhere for my care and take my bcbs ins business somewhere else that cares about patients need.

LXI M: Always helpful and sweet.

Jeremy Bamford: I wish I could give them 10 Stars, the staff here is absolutely amazing. We had a high risk pregnancy and when we were at our most stressed they were truly angels. Can't say enough good things about MFM, and especially our favorite ultrasound tech, Simone.

Damien Beaumier: I had a doctor appointment

T Abbott: Results ready wait for a signature... nooo tests results more blood tests no results still waiting not cool. Not cool to let results that are vital to a decision stay on someone’s desk for signature..

Rebecca Sheridan: Today I saw Dr. Petterson at MFM Tufts. I work with doctors professionally on a daily basis and have encountered many throughout my previous medical issues, but I have never met as compassionate a doctor as Dr. Ashley Petterson. She has an excellent bedside manner and truly cares to find a solution to her patients problems. This doctor far exceeded my expectations and went well above the call of duty. I also had the opportunity to meet her medical director, Dr. Craigo, and feel she is equally as compassionate. Overall, I could not be more pleased with the treatment I received while at Tufts MFM!
