Dartmouth Hitchcock Clinics Nashua | Vascular Surgery

Dr. acted somewhat non -chalant. I was left in the room waiting for Dr. to come in for a good 20 minutes, and the lights were turned off leaving me in the dark till just before the Dr. came in to tell me my results.

Ya know I just had to get one more review in before the new year. And wouldn't ya know it? It's another medical center. I'm thinking of enrolling my son's name into the Guinness Book of World Records for most accrued injuries and bizarre conditions within a year's time. But, I digress. What is it with medical centers being rated so harshly around here? We encountered the same kind of thing with the Dartmouth in Lebanon; the one with TWO Yelp pages, for some reason. Seems like a few people had some lousy experiences with the staff or something. On this day though, we encountered nothing but professionalism and cordiality. Oh, and also a bit of confusion. See, their internal layout takes some getting used to. First of all, most sections have their own lobbies, apparently. So, you don't necessarily have to check into the first desk you see as you walk in. It solely depends on what section of the building your appoint is in. So, for instance, we needed X-rays. We proceeded directly to Radiology, which has its own check-in desk. I dunno, maybe I haven't spent enough time in hospitals to really notice. But there's usually a proxy desk one checks into before proceeding to the actual appointment. Kind of like what happened in Orthopedics.. Okay. Get this. In order to properly check into Ortho, you don't go directly to their check-in counter. Noooo. Turns out, you actually have to visit the main check-in desk on the third floor. Yes...the very first set of windows you see. This is unlike our first appointment where we headed directly to the section in question. So anyways, you go to the first check-in window to get a set of labels with the patient's name. THEN....you go to Ortho, labels in hand. And TA-DAAAA! You're checked in. We saw the Doc and he seemed very knowledgeable. We liked that they take the path of least resistance in terms of treatment. No invasive procedures unless it's absolutely necessary. Also, X-rays were quick and easy. I was actually surprised! Not sure how long this facility has been open. But they seem newish. At any rate, I just appreciate having a Dartmouth so close to home. And I dunno about any of these other supposedly horrid experiences. But ours was...fine. I only wish the check-in procedures here weren't so arbitrarily vague. I'm giving Dartmouth-Hitchcock in Nashua 4 expedient X-rays out of 5.
