What an excellent place to have Surgery. Everyone treated me like family and put me at ease throughout the entire process. I was very nervous to be there without my support system from home, however their comfort and wonderful bedside manner made up for all of that. They all took the time to talk with me and let me know that I was going to be OK. Thank you to the individual who checked me in. My pre-operative Nurse Karen and my post operative Nurse Jamie was outstanding!
My Anesthesia Physician, Jonah, was so comforting and made sure that I was well taken care of. This was the first operation that I didn't have nausea after waking up, thanks to him! Jamie, thank you making me laugh and taking such great care of me in recovery. You are an outstanding Nurse! My Physician, Crystal Taylor DO, even called me at home the evening after my surgery to make sure I was doing ok. All of your efforts did not go unnoticed! Thank you! --Lynn Waller

I have nothing but nice things to say! From the front desk staff, to the doctors and nurses, everyone was so nice and accommodating! With COVID and not being able to have a support person with you in preop, the nurses and Anesthesiologist made me feel so at ease and in great hands!

I was scheduled for surgery here and was very apprehensive. I know during this time many people are worried about their finances with COVID like me. I really needed this surgery. When I found out how much my surgery was going to cost I panicked. I talked to a couple people about my estimate before I was transferred to the office manger Melissa. She spent 30 minutes on the phone with me and was personable.
By the end of the phone call we were laughing. She told me that I would be taken care of and she would like to see me when I came in for surgery. I felt informed about my options. I met her and she assured me that she would make sure I had a great experience under my difficult situtation. I was impressed she made a point to see me in person. The tone being set ahead of time led to me having a less stressful experience.

When I lost my pregnancy recently I was going through a lot. I required surgery due to this and was overwhelmed by the kindness of one special nurse. Angela you made quite the impression and I truly am thankful for meeting you in this sad time for our family. EVERYONE at this facility was on their A game, even late at night when emergency surgery was required. Thank you to those in the ED department and Dr. Almeida that sat down beside to show his condolences even though the emergency room was packed. This hospital will always be my choice of healthcare.
