Barix Clinics (NW Suburban Com. Hospital) Hospital
I couldn't be more pleased. I know of many others that had this surgery at other institutions, and some of the horror stories are very sad. NWSC perfected the complete care for the bariatric patient. I am 5 years out from my surgery and hind sight is still extremely positive for the care I received throughout my experience pre and post op.I HIGHLY reccomend this facility.
The staff at Barix was awesome. Dr. Boe made it a point to know me well and to make sure I felt at ease. When I was in the hospital after surgery I got a slight fever in the middle of the night and I couldn't get a hold of my mom, so one of the overnight nurses stayed with me to calm me down and help me relax enough to get back to sleep. They really went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable and well cared for. I highly recomend Barix.
It was great overall. Except for day two I had one nurse who didn't seem to like her job very well. She could barely walk was out of breath and had to sit down in the middle of taking my vitals. She did not respond to my call button pages very quickly either and was slow to bring my pain med. Other than her the rest of the staff was wonderful. Treated me with respect and were very educated. I would recommend the Barix clinic to everyone.
