"They gave both myself and another bariatric patient our own rooms on the trauma floor; my room was actually a double room so they brought in a recliner for us to use, which was great. The nurses were all very helpful and responded quickly to all my my requests; this was great because the main reason I called them was for pain relief. Also, they did not enforce visitor limits on me, allowing me to have 2-3 people in the room with me pretty much all day. The hallways were a little crowded because of computer equipment that they have started using; I would expect that problem will be taken care of when the construction is finished. Overall, it was really as good an experience as it could be for a hospital stay."
"Dr. Mueller is a top-notch surgeon and doctor. His enthusiasm for what he does is evident in every interaction and his bedside manner is fantastic. rnrnI looked into a number of programs in San Diego, and Dr. Mueller's was by far the most comprehensive and well put together. Before my surgery, his office staff made sure that everything was in place both with paperwork and my pre-op diet; it is a huge relief to me knowing that I have an entire staff to call on, including a dietician and nurse.rnrnDr. Mueller's use of new techniques and tools like the On-Q pain pump helped my recovery go much smoother. Three days out from surgery and I'm already almost back to normal! I would recommend him repeatedly to anyone I know who is interested in the surgery."
