"I had a pleasant stay. Let's face it, your in the hospital so you are never totally comfortably; but....all of my nurses were GREAT. Everytime I needed assistance or pain meds, the longest I ever waited in my 4 days at the hospital was maybe 5 minutes. 90% of the time, they were there within a minute or two to assist or what have you. The only negative thing is when I was up walking laps around the ward - some dr.s and some nurses expected you to walk around them and did not budge - when you are 1 day post-op and trying to manage an IV pole through an obstacle course, it weighs on you a bit....but still would rate the hospital excellent."
"I've met with Dr. Quilici once thus far. My first impression of him was positive and upbeat. He's a very nice man. He listens and communicates well with me. I've had two other friends that have had him as a surgeon and they all concur - he's a great surgeon. I will have more to say after surgery and after my 2nd visit with him on Monday 2/12/07.rnrnDr. Quilici's office staff is amazing! Maureen the Coordinator is super nice, informative and on-top of her game. I did have to micro-manage some reports from my medical group to Dr. Quilici's office, but once in their hands, everything ran smoothly.rnrnJulie the dietitian is the best. She is patient, understanding and has all of the answers. And if on the off chance she doesn't - she will find it out. She's been great to me and to my few calls prior to surgery about some issues I was having with the pre-op diet.rnrnDr. Summer Perry did my pshyco-social and she was super nice and fun to talk to. I appreicated her openness and assurance.rnrnFrom the front office receptionist to everyone I've encountered, everyone is nice, upbeat and accomodating. It's been an amazing experience thus far."
