Cleveland Clinic

Never experienced anything like it. They have no online forms to fill in, can’t send them to you, can’t take your information over the phone because they have to call back, which they don’t. Most modern up to date facilities are very patient orientated and offer convenience for making appointments and registering yourself as a patient. This is more antiquated that our family doctor’s practice in the 1960’s. Lucky for my husband it wasn’t urgent.

Right now we are struggling trying to get records from thee Lou ruvo clinic for my sister. We cannot make an appointment with the doctors she needs here until we can reach someone there and get her records. This has gone on for weeks, we cannot get a person, a response, nothing. It is delaying our ability to get my sister to a doctor here who can monitor her meds. She is so sad and we are sure her meds need to be adjusted but only someone trained in Lewy body can do it. They get one star for the correct diagnosis but no more for what they are putting us through right now. It is sheer torture.

We see Dr. Bernick for a rare genetic and terminal disease. The facility is immaculate. The care is state of the art. Our family member is treated with respect and care. He is currently in a gap of non insurance and the charitable foundation has seen to it that he receives care during this gap. For those who fund raise, donate time or money, we are grateful.

Do not expect anyone to answer your calls ever. They use a phone tree rather than human operator. Today I left the FOURTH MESSAGE either for my Dr. or his PA for medication refill without which will result in no meds starting tomorrow.. This experience is typical over the 18(?) months I’ve been seen by Dr. West.
Why do I continue to stay with this practice? I ask myself every time my messages are unreturned. The answer is Vegas is an intellectual desert. Dr. West & his PA are knowledgable about the condition for which I’m treated, both in practice and current research.
The staff and greeters are lovely in person. Good luck getting a live person to answer or return your calls.

What a great addition to the Las Vegas Community. This is a lovely facility, I was there for the St. Jude gala, so I didn’t receive any treatment, but the reputation of this place is very good. Las Vegas, It’s Not Just For Gambling Any More! Live it up, you are in Las Vegas for cryin’ out loud!

This is just about the building itself. This has nothing to do with the offices located within the building, though they do some amazing work! and Las Vegas is lucky to have the Cleveland Clinic here in our town.
I am very intrigued by interesting architecture in general. I like it on a recreational level and really do not have any «book knowledge» on the subject matter. I enjoy going to look at interesting buildings and checking them out. I wanted to review it for any other architecture lovers out there in the world of Unilocalers.
I have driven past this building dozens of times and just never had time to really study it a bit more closely until today. It is a very compelling building. I get a strong emotional reaction every time I see the building. I don’t know if it is from my personal experience with my grandfather who passed away from Alzheimer’s or what, but I get hit with a wave of emotion every time I see it, no matter what. I actually get an overwhelming wave of sadness when I see this building, yet I want to see and experience more at the same time. I am drawn to it and repulsed at the same time. I know that the architect wanted to show the mind collapsing around itself and I think he was very effective with his design.
I went inside just to look around and it was like looking out of a person’s eyes into the world for the first time. There are so many windows that are all looking in different directions. It can be a bit overwhelming until you take time to look in one direction at a time and really study what is out that way. It was an emotional experience for me, but one I enjoyed having. It was a roller coaster of emotions for me, but one I gladly rode because how often do you really have a physical and mental response to anything these days.
Whether you love or hate the design, go check it out just to witness the building in person. It is worth a trip downtown to see, if you have the opportunity.

We are only rating the architecture and beauty of the building itself. We know nothing of the business of the Center, but if you get to Las Vegas, a walk around the Center is a must! Renee and I visited the area on March 2, 2013, took several photos, and had a lovely time walking this beautiful area of Las Vegas. The building is walking distance from The Las Vegas Experience in downtown Las Vegas and is across the street (Grand Central Parkway) from the Las Vegas World Market Center. Don’t leave Las Vegas without seeing it!

Stopped by for a tour here with my doctor friend whose father is a patient here. Back when I was starting to look for jobs I heard about this place recruiting so it was interesting to see what it has developed into. I would absolutely love to work in a place like this with lots of windows, sunny atmosphere, interesting design space, and a crazy façade by Gehry. One of the research folk (pre med) was nice enough to take us on a tour (their last one of 2012) and it was nice to see how the research and clinic spaces interact. A plus for the patients is beautiful facilities with a lot of art, much of it neurologically themed. There is a beautiful warped melting-​wall Gehry style meeting room for special events. An oasis for neurological care, head by quite well known and famous neurologists. I wish we had a building and a medical team like this near me!

Larry Ruvo is a Vegas icon and through Southern Wine and Spirits has given much back to the community. Over the years, at various events, we’ve discussed our love of wine, our Dad’s sharing the same first name and sadly, he lost his to the demon which slowly steals mine: Alzheimer’s Disease.
Hearing about the Center and its Cleveland Clinic affiliation and it finally opening has given hope to many families battling various brain disorders. The Frank Gehry designed building is visually stunning but it is what goes on inside that is most important: top notch pros, research, clinical trials, caregiver support groups, Keep Memory Alive Café (Red Velvet outpost) This is a state-​of-​the-​art facility dedicated to saving, improving and enhancing lives and I’m so grateful they are here as quality healthcare in Vegas can be difficult to find.
Considering the prognosis for those with Alzheimer’s, this is a place surprisingly full of hope: for those in early stages to participate in clinical trials; for those of us further in who wish never to have another person suffer the absolutely unfathomably gut wrenching pain of watching your loved one cognitively fade away; for the stranger who becomes a friend because they truly understand your journey; for the Traumatic Brain Injury survivor who makes small improvements daily which add up to huge strides… there are not enough accolades or thanks I can give for this place.
It is my sincere hope that nobody needs to use their services, but as a realist, breathe a sigh of relief knowing that others can and will find solace here.

We see Dr. Wint for my mother-​n-​law. She is dealing with Lewy Body Dementia. He and his staff are very knowledgable and patient. Merena is awesome and actually returns phone calls and just simply a wonderful person. They completely understand the effects it has on her and the whole family. In these dark times they have been a light in this hopeless process.

My wife had an appointment yesterday with Dr. Wint. He was very competent, thorough, and understanding. The staff were all pleasant and I understand their need to be. It does get a bit overdone in my perspective.
The naming of the Tranquility Room was something I couldn’t fathom. It didn’t make me anymore tranquil especially with the 24 hour news channel they had on the TV.

My neurologist Dr. Bernick is now part of the Cleveland Clinic. Dr. Bernick is a wonderful dr. He has excellent bedside manner. And most important, he never makes you wait. The longest I have ever waited is 15 mins. My previous neurologist I would be in the waiting room for 3 – 4 hrs. He was a nice dr, but I quit going there due to the waiting time. My time is just as important as theirs.
The staff at the Cleveland Clinic is so professional, kind and sincere. I was impressed with how knowledgeable they all were. Nothing is more frustrating to me than the staffs at dr’s office’s who do not know what they are talking about.
