The Staff was Great. I was truly made to feel comfortable. From the admitting experience on through to being released. The nursing staff made sure I got up to walk and was there when I needed medication administered to me. I would to truly recommend this hospital to anyone who is looking for a place to have their surgery. |

| Comments: |
The nursing staff was excellent, and they were very intuned to the needs of obese people. the only down side was that they have you stay in the recovery room so they can provide more 1:1 care but you havevery little privacy, it can be noisy at times, and your visitors are limited to 1 every hour for only 10 minutes. |
