Report
Had outpatient surgery done this morning and between the check in/registration staff, all the nurses, anesthesiologist, Dr, pretty much every individual I spoke with. They were so friendly, caring and compassionate. Each and every single individual took their time with me to explain everything. As a staff member of Edward-Elmhurst this has been my best experience ever with having surgery and I've had a few of them at Edward. My first one with the surgery center.

Report
My husband went in for hand surgery after a accident at work. Dr. Kerri A. Kulovitz was such a great Doctor. She explained everything in detail, made sure my husband and I were comfortable and was so sweet. The staff was amazing as well especially a nurse by the name Erica Riccardi. She was attentive and was very polite and caring. Great Experience!
