Patient Reviews
Oct 20, 2024
My 93-year-old mother is currently under comfort care (rather than curative care) at Faulkner Hospital. Dr. Halporn has been in regular communication with my siblings and me, and even had us neet with his team and him for more than an hour about mom's treatment trajectory and hospice. Communication from his team and him was clear, frank, and gentle. After my family opted for curative care, the nursing staff placed butterflies on my mom's door to denote my mom's spiritual transition toward death. We were given a recliner and snacks as we wait for my mom to die. I am very thankful for the kind concern, clear communication, and gentle care received from Dr. Halporn, Dr. Surya, and the wonderful team of nurses and others at Faulkner. It's a very stark difference from my experience with my father's death at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston.
