Complaint Review: Los Alamos Medical Center - Los Alamos New Mexico

 I find it hilarious that the OP FAILED!!!It clearly show that she wrote it in anger AND with a personal vendetta in mind. You can tell that she twisted the truth by WHAT she wrote. Personally I hope that the medical center takes her to task for WHAT SHE POSTED!!!! Everyone SHOULD learn what is right and wrong to post. What SHE posted was nothing but defamation AND she named people. That alone would have me at MY lawyers affice. SHE needs to learn a lesson about HOW she treats others. You can tell its a female because the DRAMA she produced with her own co workers is TYPICAL of an upset self entitled female. Odds are that NONE of what she wrote has ANY basis in REALITY and its just the spin SHE put on situations. while HOW an individual sees ANY situation is important, the differences is reality. what AMAZES me is that while I was the first to post a rebuttal, EVERY rebuttal that didnt believe her got some of her nasty attitude. THAT is indicitive of a DEEPER problem in HER HEAD!!!!PLEASE!!! PLEASE!!!PLEASE!!!! teach this person the lesson she TRULY needs. Take from HER everything SHE holds as valuable and PLEASE keep her out of our hospitals!!! SHE tries to play the victim but it VERY CLEAR that SHE IS THE REAL PROBLEM!!!

To defend myself and clear my name, I would like to say, Ms.Quinones has lost her law suits she has filed with the courts. Persons who file complaints on sites such as  "Rip Off Report" are individuals who are very unhappy with their lives. They are out to make others miserable like themselves. They feel they are owed something to replace the unhappiness they are living.  Los Alamos Medical Center is a great place to work. We take care of our community and respect each individual patient that walks through our doors of this awesome facility.

Ms. Quinones could not prove any of her allegations against LAMC, Sandra Palmento or Jacqui Carroll.  I will not get into detail nor will I elaborate on Ms. Quinones' allegations. I do hope Ms. Quinones can learn to accept the life she is living and  learn how to deal with her everyday struggles and take responsibility for her actions. I wish her well in whatever path she chooses.  

To all the readers who have posted comments supporting or not supporting Ms. Quinones' complaint , please remember do not always believe what you hear or read. Do not judge until all the facts are heard. Truth has and always will prevail over the forces of the evil.

Sandra Palmento

So sad to know there are some who will side with the author without knowing all the facts.  After reading the complaint again I noticed and realized she  is very angered and troubled. It is amazing how people can blame others for something they clearly have created themselves.  Is she blaming others for her own inadequacies? Is this a desperate approach to to mask her own troubled life?,There is always two sides to the story. 

Why hasn't Los Alamos posted in their defense . The fact that Palmetto, Carroll or Jiron  is quiet , tells me two things. 1.  This posting is either true and they are cowards  or they do not want to deal with such childish behavior.  

I hope we hear some news soon. Not hearing anything since Feb tells me  this is a bogus story. 

I appreciate your support. I do have so much evidence I have no idea how they think they will thrive. Except that they make think I'll fatigue.....but they don't know me very well. Again, thank you.

I am sorry for your bills. ZLook at some of the links I've provided....many people are experiencing the same. My hope is that many of you will also submit complaints to AG, medicare and elsewhere.

Also, look at Glassdoor website....you'll see incredible complaints from employees and the dangers they pose on patientcare.

Please go elsewhere!!

Thanks so much for your encouraging words.

Although I am horrified to hear about this, it is not surprising. I am so very sorry this occurred to you and I am confident that, if in fact, you have evidence, you will prevail. I am also a victim of this horrific hospital. They intentionally make it extraordinarily difficult to pay your bills, and on a visit, I even witnessed employee abuse. I dont even suspect, but know there is fraud in that place.

Here is an example. There is a patient by the name of Peter Schultz from Los Alamos who works at NM Consortium and went to Los Alamos Medical Center for PT, who according to them is a "total j******." I have no idea who this person is but I know he is/was a patient there who is bad-mouthed. That must be a violation of some kind. I can not imagine what he must feel if he knew he is paying for services just to be spoken about behind his back.

You do have my complete support. I wonder if they follow or even have compliance training. I am angry that I still can not get this bill paid despite multiple attempts and now am receiving collection threats. Is this what they call a healthcare facility?

Kudos to you for your inner strength. You will win your cases. Please keep us informed. My hope is that they will be replaced. How awful and reprehensible that they dare to call themselves a healthcare facility?

Please keep us informed. We all must know about the downfall that is pending against them.

Thank you,

After rereading your posts and comments. I wonder who slapped who first. It appears Los Alamos medical center is not the problem. 

You may have taken some time to read but did not take time to consider. Anyone with that experience would be angry. Common sense, and if you want to place blame because the experience has angered me then you sit down and let me slap you around. You sit down and take coorporate abuse.Your mindset is the reason corporate abuse occurs. Of course, you are probably a corporate puppet youself, huh?

Do your research before you have the audacity to have an opinion....IE: Glassdoor.

 I know how to do research been doing it a very long time.  Don't like the reason you were fired or the way the hospital is run then contact JCAHO, OSHA and New Mexico's Department of Health.  These are the entities that regulate hospitals and nursing homes as well as hospice and home health.  As for the lawsuit, Hospitals get sued all the time! I know this because I used to work for a healthcare company and researched records! So get your facts straight btw where is your lawsuit and when did you file?

It has taken me quite awhile to read your allegations against the hospital in question along with the  3 people you mentioned in your lengthy complaint.  The way I see it is, I hope you have hard evidence against all you have alledged. As a person who knows nothing of either side, you sound like a very angry former employee. I do not understand that with all that has gone on with Palmetto,Carroll,and Jiron,you were the only one who has been terminated. Also as an outsider you really need to sit back and read your complaint. You are writing on anger and it shows. 

For your sake I hope things rule in your favor. I would be worried if it did not rule in your favor. Good Luck. Please give us an update as to where you stand on this case. I would be very interested in the outcome.

If you found no complaints then please take a class on internet research.

Here are just a few I found within 60 seconds......How did you missed them?

1) bbb.org/new-mexico/Business-Reviews/health-and-medical-general/los-alamos-medical-center-in-los-alamos-nm-45011/complaints. ---- LAMC is not a member of the BBB but they can buy a membership and get a good grade. It's in the media how the BBB is not forthright but here are some billing complaints.

2) healthgrades.com/hospital-directory/new-mexico-nm/los-alamos-medical-center-hgst949a7b36320033 -----  Here is the healthscore for Los Alamos Medical Center (LAMC). Nothing about them is above average. Effectively, they are mediocre.

3) washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/health/specials/doctors/Johnson.pdf ---- Wrongful death suit because they hired a doctor with a longstanding history of not knowing her job and it killed someone's loved one.

4) Google "Los Alamos Medical Center billing complaints" and you'll find multiple complaints (4-5) to the extent that it ruined someone's credit for 10 years despite the fact she paid the bill.

Speak with validity or hush.

 This report you filed just opened you up to a big fat lawsuit!! I looked for lawsuits against this facility and found NONE!

I have proven facts. Im the one doing the suing. Thanks for your input. I have no opinions to offer as this is either documented or on a recorder.

I did not want to come here to offer opinions but facts. My opinion is useless unless I got grub and I have it.

Thank you.

M.

 Well if she or they had not sued you before, then by making this post you have given them the ammo to do so. You did not preface your report with "in my opinion". Which means youre putting out on the web, which is a media outlet, your opinions AS FACT.
