Medstar Orthopedic in Olney is the worse place I have been. They started out with a great doctor but now he is not there. I saw a Dr. Mitchell who is an idiot and the type of person you wonder why they wasted the time to go to school. This Dr is not even qualified to do the surgery I need. What a freaking waste of time. If I could afford to go else where I would and it does not seem to bother Medstar if I did go elsewhere

0/0 Terrible and awful service. You will be sorry. I took off 2 days for a new patient appointment, one in November and December and they canceled both times. They now think I am scheduling a third time, I think not. They play too much and are unprofessional. Do not recommend.

This hospital is the worst hospitals in dc I been sitting in waiting area for 2hrs after getting my blood pressure check, I think this hospital is very racist towards black people, all they call is Spanish and white people to get services, I told myself I would never come to this damn hospital again and I'm getting the same result after coming here a years but it's gotten worse.

I had the unfortunate experience of spending 30 hours in their ED department while on vacation in Washington DC. Filthy conditions, majority of staff treating myself and other patients with humiliating disrespect, ignored, medication not administered as doctor ordered, had to use spit and tissues to clean my own bloody arm, told to use bed pan in the middle of overcrowded hallway ( I refused, what lady should be expected to lift her gown pull down panties and expose herself to at least 30 people). The horrors I witnessed a... read more

After suffering 5 weeks, I was relieved that UC gave me the diagnosis of Diverticulitis- which they assured me relief could be easily ascertained by prescription. However, they then informed me - inorder to be supplied the medication - I must FIRST report to the hospital's ER and be processed by that triage. For UC stated I must receive a CT - to confirm there is no Cyst. If there is a Cyst?... and if the Cyst ruptured? There would be terrible complications! In view of the fact that I've suffered terribly for over 5 weeks ... read more

I had breast surgery to correct a birth defect and Dr. Otero is the BEST, and believe me, you want a woman, and I am so sorry Dr. Otero retired.

We had the most terrible experience at this urgent care today. My five year old daughter bumped her head at a summer camp and was in pain. We arrived at Medstar at 5:30 pm. After waiting for more than 30 minutes, a nurse called us. She did the regular check in and told us to wait in a tiny room. She locked the door and the air circulation was bad. We waited in this room for more than 30 minutes and still no doctor was coming. My five year old daughter was tired and hungry and started crying. She wanted to go home. So, we cam... read more

Been here 11hours now with a diabetic alzhimer aphasia patient. Came in at 1:30 got nothing to eat or drink until we asked about 4:30.at that point we hadn't seen a doctor just intake. Got xray at 8 PM still waiting for it to be read at11:PM. Still no doctor no meal or water. He takes about 12 medications an nothing has been given. That's because we have not seen anyone since intake. You know the chairs are hard chairs try sitting in that for even 3 to 4 hours. Not a fan and you know the bill will be over 5,000 If it was a a... read more
