Valley Medical Group - Cardiology, Wayne

Attitude comes from the top down so it really makes me wonder about the level of care at this facility. I had the displeasure of attempting to change an appointment for Echo at the Wayne facility. The rudeness and hostility from the person to whom I spoke tells me all I need to know about the quality of care at VMG - Cardiology. Despite being given a new date and time from the nasty person on the phone, the appointment wasn't changed in their system until after several days and phone calls with different people. Why a simple change had to be so difficult is beyond me.

After reading the 2 other reviews I feel compelled to give my review. I am a patient of Dr. Brown. I have known the four main doctors in the practice (Julie, Teicher, Brown and Skolnick) professionally since 1985 and as a patient since 1998. I am a Respiratory Therapist and in my time worked at hospitals, large and small. All 4 of these doctors are excellent and usually a joy to work with. I say "usually" because these doctors will not tolerate sub-standard care of their patients. I owe my life to Dr. Brown, he listened to the physical issues I was having and believed me when other doctors acted as if I was being "hysterical and over dramatic" (actual words said to me by another "doctor"!). Dr. Brown has been an incredible advocate for me. Anyone who asks me to recommend a Cardiologist that I trust I send them to his group. It is unfortunate that the people leaving these reviews didn't get the chance to have Dr. Julie help them, I have always found Dr. Julie to be knowledgeable, open, and caring.
