Kennedy Krieger Institute

Community Services/Non-Profits
Hours: The Kennedy Krieger Institute is a renowned healthcare facility that specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of children with various developmental and neurological conditions. According to the reviews, the institute has received mixed feedback from patients and their families. On the positive side, the institute is praised for its efficient management of appointments and parking, as well as the friendliness and expertise of the specialists involved in the diagnosis process. Patients have also appreciated the high-quality food options available at the institute's cafeteria. However, the reviews also highlight some areas for improvement. One patient expressed disappointment with the feeding clinic experience, where the child was overwhelmed by the presence of multiple specialists in a small doctor's office setting. The institute's recommendation of an 8-week in-patient program was also seen as an extreme measure, especially given the patient's insurance coverage. Additionally, a concerning issue was raised regarding the staff's perceived lack of empathy and understanding towards the challenges faced by parents of children with special needs. A provider's feedback suggested that some staff members were labeling a parent as "mean," which the parent found to be a huge disappointment and a failure to uphold the institute's mission. Overall, the Kennedy Krieger Institute appears to provide comprehensive and specialized care, but there is room for improvement in terms of creating a more supportive and empathetic environment for patients and their families.
