Medical Center East is the nicest hospital I have ever stayed in. I would give its bariatric surgery unit a very superior rating. |
| Comments: |
The doctors are top-notch and so are the nursing staff, nursing assistants, right on to housekeeping:were supportive and encouraging. Nurses were also very tender and careful in administering IVs and in keeping an eye on them.Were quick and efficient when they had to wake me at night. Very clean hospital; checked on you regularly to see if you needed anything. Promptly let the nurse know if you did. Very aware of patient's needs. I would use this hospital again, in a heart beat!! (even the post-op liquid diet was good!) Excellent hospital for bariatric surgical care. |
