Moffitt Cancer Center - Tampa, Florida

Moffitt is terrible! No return calls, long wait on the phone to schedule appointments. . Appointments are scheduled months out. Not easy to contact your providers. My wife was misdiagnosed/never diagnosed and treated 18 months for the wrong cancer. The 18 months of treatments that were worthless and caused many side effects she still experience till this day. We left Moffitt and went to another Cancer Center. They immediately knew what cancer ahe had. They were able to confirm it within two weeks with a biopsy. Moffitt botched at least two biopsies and never really made an effort to confirm where the cancer originated

This is NOT a good review, and it saddens me to think that it has a “great” reputation for fighting cancer but cannot figure out how to schedule appointments and deal with patients who have problems after surgery.
Never come to an appointment that a resident scheduled or better yet, if it’s NOT in the patient portal don’t bother showing up.
Because even though my appointment was changed 3x while I was AT the facility…I waited 2.35 hours. It was emotional day for a cancer patient and stressful as just a for any individual.

Uncompassionate, inflexible care. Worst hospital and clinic system I have ever had the need of visiting. I have been followed for 30 plus years across the US for my health issues. Moffitt was recommended to me when I moved to Florida. I am now in the process of finding a different cancer center closer to my home because of the issues I’m having here. Look at the recent reviews - many of them are negative for a reason.

It’s hard to get appointments here without even simple labs and scans being months out. When you are dealing with cancer, you don’t have that time. Doctor appointments are minimum of five months out. Refusal and inability to schedule multiple appointments for one day so you have to deal with the drive, traffic, and parking nightmare here multiple times a month. Condescending staff who refuse to assist patients with simple requests. There are other places rated better.

I only know this place from taking my dad. There’s valet parking. A Starbucks occupies one end of the main lobby along with a quiet section off to the left as you enter. The space is open and airy. The staff I’ve met are very professional. It’s seems to be a very nice hospital that I hope you never have to visit.

I completely agree with the negative reviews I have seen regarding Moffitt Cancer Center and their staff after my recent experience with Aabedah Taher, APRN at Advent Health Riverview. She was sent to consult on my grandmother during her stay in the ICU and she was completely insensitive and demonstrated a lack of bedside manner. It is clear from these reviews and my own experience that Moffitt does not care about their patients and there is a clear lack of sensitivity towards patients dealing with serious illness. I would not recommend Moffitt to anyone battling cancer and is seeking compassion. Please consider Florida Cancer Specialists instead.

Fabulous doctors but when you get here, you will be stressed on trying to figure out where to park. If you decide to go down to the cafeteria, you’ll be more stressed cause there’s no one in there to answer any questions and they simply just hand you tickets and don’t wanna be bothered. What happened to Moffit? Terrible experience, service folks are not friendly, blood draw not pleasant either. They just don’t care, it’s just a job to them

I chose Moffitt due to its proximity to my home. The surgeon was good and I liked his bedside manner but after surgery things really soured. The nursing staff at the hospital were mostly in their early 20’s. I was not offered any sort of way to clean myself during my 4 days there. I smelled like a homeless person when I left. After I left the hospital the care got even worse. I was only allowed to talk to a nurse who constantly ignored my concerns. I wanted a work up of my nutrients (also recommended by their nutritionist) since I had severe joint pain in my hand and feet and was anemic. She said it wasn’t necessary. I wanted to meet with a nephrologist since I only had one kidney and she said that wasn’t necessary. She called to read my path results 4 weeks after my surgery. I asked her a question about the results and she told me to Google it. Then said I was too anxious about everything (stage 3 renal cell carcinoma with spots on my lung), so yeah. There is NO way this place is number 10 in the US… someone paid to have that ranking.

I’m sure I will get a message back on here from Moffitt acting concerned and for me to contact them. It’s all for show! My name is on here… if you want more info you should call me!

Twice I have shown up for procedures, was checked in, had blood work drawn only to tell the doctor or nurse or radiologist my allergies and they could read them back to me from my chart. They had these records months before I scheduled the procedures. I am ashamed they are neither apologetic nor will reschedule these done properly. I get to wonder if I have cancer and the doctor, social worker, appointment center as well as a complaint though my insurance company has not created any urgency for them to call me.
