Overall Value: Average Oversized Equipped: Good Oversized Sensitive: Average
Multi Security: Average Privacy: Average Pain Medication: Good
Quiet: Poor Visiting: Good Staff Responsive: Average
Parking: Average
How Selected: I am an employee of the hospital, so my insurance covers only hospitals in the same system. I was supposed to go to the newer sister hospital but they had not yet done a WLS and was not comfortable enough in the training of its staff to do the surgery.
Comments: There were some problems once I got to the floor. I have to say the OR staff was great and they are amazing workers. I did have nursing issues later in my stay.
