I am convinced the doctors at Fresenius are there for one reason and one reason only, to put butts in dialysis chairs. Anyone who has had to pay for uncovered dialysis would not be surprised to learn that Fresenius charges around $10,000 per session. The government usually pays that, but the point is Fresenius, one of the two major dialysis providers in the United States, is reaping incredible profits. The doctors at Fresenius in Paris seem less concerned with the actual health of patients and more concerned with getting you in the chair three times a week. NOTE: This is not a complaint about the nurses in the actual dialysis center, who are wonderful.

Zero stars is what they deserve. My grandfather was there, recovering just fine from an injury from a fall, until "hospital policy" and negligent "nurses" couldn't manage him for ONE hour (the one hour in his weeks-long stay that neither my mom nor grandmother could be there). He tried to stand, he fell, he broke a hip and started the whole treatment and recover process all over again, but from a much worse position (his first injury wasn't nearly so severe). I am embarrassed for the lack of care offered by this facility. It does not deserve the words "regional" or "medical" in the title.
