Touro University Nevada

I am a DO medical student and love this school! I am so happy I chose to go here for the supportive community, excellent doctors and professors, and inclusive environment. The lecture halls are really nice and have a video & audio recording system to record the lectures which is a huge plus for studying. The administration is very responsive to student feedback and overall this is a great community to be a part of.

Horrible service. Extremely long wait times, rude staff. Avoid this place. It’s hidden at the back of the university, with limited to no parking. My encounter with trying to get an initial appointment was difficult and it was changed by the provider even after it was scheduled for over 2 weeks. Logistically they are totally disorganized.

I am a student here at TUN and the PT program is absolutely awful. I was hoping for a great education but the professors think it’s really important to spend the most amount of time and effort learning non-​PT related things or working on useless projects like writing detailed APA papers, learning about disability and children, extensive research and statistics, etc. etc… I’m a third year student and don’t feel ready for the real world because they didn’t prepare me. The most I’ve learned by far was from simply reading PT books on my own.
As for the school in general they are also horrible. They are much too expensive because they are always spending soooo much money on useless things that no student actually uses. They require you to buy a $ 1300 laptop that you could easily buy elsewhere for $ 400 with software and everything. And they force you to get COMPREHENSIVE health insurance even if you don’t need it.
In all I spent ~$ 120,000 on a horrible experience. I’ll have fun making that up later in life ;)

Dr. Martin has always taken care of me and id recommend him to anyone. Unfortunately he isnt always available for personal reasons.
Only real gripe is how long it takes to get an appointment (usually about a month), the fact that i can’t get a pap from my GP any longer because none of them do it, and Sal the call center operator is a nightmare. Seems she goes out of her way to make everything as difficult as possible with a terrible attitude from «hello» to «goodbye» as if she’s trying to find a reason to pick a fight. Im almost afraid the appointment time she gave me wasn’t the soonest, and that upon reading this she will cancel my appointment. She’s just that professional. Lol Someone give the girl a snickers. Yuck.

Dr. Julie Zachariah & her staff Rock! They’ve made me proud that my NY hometown opened a site out here! They’ve taken great care of my mom

I have been coming here for about 4 months. I see Dr Martin. Hes really good. The only complaint i have is that its a university so 95% of the time they have students in the room with you. Its ok sometimes but when its during almost every visit it makes it to where i feel awkward. I know that because its a university its very common but sometimes i like to speak to the doctor one on one and not have an audience. I dont feel comfortable saying i dont want the students in with me because i know they’re learning. Other then that i like going to see Dr. Martin.

I am a student at Touro University Nevada. WARNING TO ALL STUDENTS! They have the WORST health insurance of all time. The health insurance tries everything they can to get out of the claims, and they are expensive. This is not just my experience, but they experience that every student in my class with health insurance from school has had. I submitted a claim in November… it is now MARCH and it still has not been processed. The hospital actually sent me a note saying they do not believe that I have health insurance because it has taken so long. They send you all of the superfluous forms to fill out/
Also, the program that I am in is okay… not great.

I have been a patient of Dr. Park’s for about 2 years now. I’m part of his «I Do» program that helps people with diabetes that do not have health insurance.
Dr. Park and his nurse Noelle are always very helpful and ready to answer all my questions. He has helped me control my diabetes and other medical problems. Part of going to Touro is seeing student Doctors. They usually come in before Dr. Park to review my reason for being there. Then after the doctor comes in he discusses with the student doctor about what the plan of action should be. I think it’s nice I’m able to help student doctors and get a good check up all at the same time.
In a world were people are money hungry, especially in the medical field, Dr. Park and his staff go out of their way to be helpful and caring. Make sure you call in advance for appointments if your going to see Dr. Park because he is only there certain days of the week. Touro also observes all Jewish holidays, so keep that in mind if they are not there during the week.
I would totally recommend Touro to anyone looking for an awesome doctor!

I am a patient. I was there a year ago and was very happy. However, my experience from 2 and a ½ weeks ago has left me very disappointed. I made it clear from the time I checked in that I needed a written prescription and that I go thru a Canadian pharmacy. My medication does not come in a generic form and I cannot pay full price. This was fine a year ago. My Canadian pharmacy called the Doctor and everything went thru very smooth. So, after telling the front desk, the doctor, and the doctor’s assistant of my plans I left with my written prescription thinking all was good.
So after a week of leaving 6 messages AND 6 fax’s, my Canadian pharmacy called me to let me know they cannot fill my prescription because no one would call them back to confirm.
I call to find out that they evidently no longer work with Canadian pharmacies…
I by no means, expect the rules to be bent for me, but surely ONE of the THREE people I talked to on my appointment day could have informed me of the change in policy. Someone also could have called me when the Canadian pharmacy kept leaving messages… But no call till I frantically left my own message regarding my prescription that I have been out of for weeks…
I understand that policy changes, but someone could have told me. This experience has left me feeling like a very unimportant number in their system.
So be advised that if you like to fill your prescription thru a non-​approved pharmacy, they will make this very difficult for you.

I too am a nursing student at this school… and i’m not even sure of what to say! I kinda wanna say no comment… but ahhh. so many thoughts going through my head right now!
Just joking… i would recommend it to anyone who would be willing to move out here! What sucks though is that many people are unfamiliar with the school… so when you’re trying to get in as a local at certain clubs on the strip… they just look at you funny! Like what… touro??? Where is that!!!

Touro University Nevada features many programs like Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine, Physician Assistant, Health Education, Occupational Therapy, and Nursing (Bachelor not required).
I am currently a nursing student in the Entry Level Masters Program. This program is 6 – 7 semesters long: the first 4 semesters are the accelerated BSN portion (16 months), which will give students a BSN at the end and eligibility to take the N-​CLEX exam to be a registered nurse. A previous bachelors is not needed for the first phase, but required if you want to be in the Entry Level Masters program. After this phase is complete, the next couple of semesters is the Masters portion which will give students a Masters in Nursing after completion.
Despite many unforeseen occurences during our school year, the nursing program is providing valuable education and experience.
Good place to go for nursing school if you already know that you want to do it, and will get it done quickly…
