This hospital is not local to me. It is over 80 miles from my home. But I rate it 150% above any of my local hospitals |
| Comments: |
The staff took excellent care of me. They really accomodate heavy people even to the point that ALL furniture was large enough to sit comfortably and that never happens in my area. The staff made me feel special. |

| Comments: |
I was not satisfied with the care I received after surgery. On average, it took 30-45 minutes to get a nurse to respond to me after I called, and another 30 minutes to get my needs met. I think the care could have been much better and the nurses could have actually showed that they cared. |
