Shameless Money Grubbers--Avoid, Avoid, Avoid
Fun fact: in 2023, the CEO of Northwell Health made $7.8 million dollars. I make a heck of a lot less than that, and despite having insurance, I lost approximately 2% of my annual salary to a late-night emergency room visit during which the doctor visually inspected me and determined that I had a stress facture, not a deep-vein thrombosis. I was with the doctor for less than ten minutes. No diagnostic tests or medical interventions were performed--I did not receive so much as a single aspirin. Nevertheless, Northwell Health attempted to extract roughly $5000 from my insurance company. When my insurance company didn't cough up this outrageous sum in full, the balance fell on me. The individual health care providers at Northwell Health may be decent, but the people running the place are disgusting bottom feeders who would push their own grandmothers down the stairs if they thought they'd get five bucks out of it. If you use Northwell Health, do so with extreme caution; get a billing estimate before you receive treatment, document everything, and be prepared to get bent over a barrel anyway at the end of it all.
