Barix Clinics (NW Suburban Com. Hospital) Hospital

I was impressed with the kindness and caring of the staff, as well as the quality of care. If I buzzed for a nurse, I always knew one would be right there. Very helpful and accommodating.

I was impressed with their genuine care of my needs. I didn't feel like 'the odd one' and they truly knew what would make my recovery successful. This hospital has definitely contributed to the quality of life I now have.

I liked it, but would have preferred a private room.

Hospital was up to date, very clean and had a wonderful staff! Many of the nurses have had the surgery and know exactly how you feel,but they don't let you baby yourself either.This was a much better experience than I thought it would be...thank god!! My recovery from this surgery has been quick.

i would recommend this hospital to anyone. the care i received was wonderful. they really helped me out and i was there all alone.

They were the best expecially Rachel the CNA she is the best. They were all great!!!

This hospital was superior in every aspect... at least the hospital itself. Their accounting team is another story. I never received any bills for a long time, then started getting threatening leters. When I would make a payment, they posted it to the wrong account. They have more than one account number per patient, and refuse to do a simple thing like putting all the charges on one account number and bill monthly. I finally got them to send me a bill by e-mailing a complaint to their corporate. All I got was a nastygram threatening collection action. I've told them that I will be HAPPY to pay them, if only they will bill me with ONE account number and send me a bill once a month. I am surprised that SO many other kinds of businesses and hospitals are able to accomplish monthly billing, but the level of incompetence I have seen from the accounting people at Bariatric Treatment Centers corporate accounting is apalling. While the clinical care is superior, the corporate accounting contact is VERY substandard. The experience I had with accounting would almost make me not recommend the hospital. If you look only at the clinical experience though, I have to say it is the BEST I have ever had!

It is a great hospital, very caring staff and al around a great place to have this done. I had to drive 4 hours to get there but it was well worth it.

I do not have anything negative to say about this hospital. They treated me with the utmost respect. My husband who stayed with me the entire time even made a comment about how he was treated. When we went back for follow-up visits, my family came along. They were so kind and considerate to everyone.

I think BTC is a great place. All of their clinics, doctors and hosptials are only in the business of bariatric surgery. Since this is all they specialize in, you feel very comfortable with the staff and in the facilities. They are very accomdating, all of their equipment and furniture are made to accomdate severly obese people. And a majority of their staff have had the surgery, which makes them better equipped to help you. I felt I had a lot less risks with a surgeon that has done this surgery several times a week for years.
