“This is the first time I have been able to visit my Dad at Medilodge. I wasn't sure what to expect, and was pleased to see that he was well taken care of by a friendly staff in a clean and secure environment. My brothers and their families also made the trip up with me and mine, and we were allowed to use a large room for this little reunion, as requested by Cathy, Dad's lovely wife. All in all, …”

“These losers were hanging up on me when trying to call my mom for Mother's day. I called 7 times, they would pick up, I could hear commotion in the back ground, then hang up. One lady hung up on me when I asked for the number for the GTC building.”

★Nicole Tedder · 2025-10-30 · via Google
“Absolutely horrendous. My husband was withheld care in this facility. State investigation leads to whistle blower retaliation. Kevin super rn will withhold pain meds from your family member. Better hope evening rn Richard is paying attention he doesn't when he's passing meds. This place is an abhorrent Medicare bill mill. Stay away.”
