Considering the number of bariatric procedures performed at this hospital, I expected the post op nursing care to be better. |

| Comments: |
I felt like Durham Regional Hospital gave me and my family the utmost care and concern. And, there's absolutely no way you could get the wrong meds or the wrong surgery or the wrong anything! They scanned your arm badge even before taking your temp to confirm they were doing it to the correct person. I felt very safe and very cared for. |

This is by far the worst care I have had in comparison to other local hospitals. |

The Duke WLSC need to reconsider where they do surgeries. This hospital was the most substandard place I have ever received care. |
