Glenbrook Hospital Hospital

I had two really special nurses during my stay at Glenbrook that went out of their way for me and my family. On the second night of my stay I had a nurse that I didn't have previously and she asked my husband if he would like a cot to sleep on instead of the reclining sleeper chair. We were so grateful for that. They also had no issues with my 4 year old visiting, which had a positive impact in my recovery. (She cheered me up.) :) One thing I was a little "alarmed" about was one of my meals was supposed to come with a diet italian ice and they supplied a regular italian ice. I was glad I was well enough to be vigilant of what was being served to me. I was also disappointed, because it was the only thing on my tray that looked yummy. :(

I had a private room. Short staffed, took a long time to answer nurse call button, when I made requests, they were not followed out.

My care was above and beyond. I had nurses visit me from all over the hospital to share their personal bariatric surgery experience.

I am an RN and was appauled at some of the care or lack there of that I recieved. I would not consider being a patient at Glenbrook in the future.

I had a very positive experience at Glenbrook Hospital. Doctor Frantzides and Doctor Zeni were outstanding. The hospital nursing staff was kind, caring, extremely capable and very available on all shifts. Dietary staff and housekeeping were very considerate and helpful. My needs were met before I even asked. I couldn't have had a more positive experience - not one complaint. I am so grateful for all those who took care of me. They were all outstanding!

This hospital stay could not have gone any better! From the time I checked in until the time I was discharged it was terriffic. The nursing staff from the OR to the floor nurses are EXCELLENT and on top of everything. I never needed to ask for anything because they made sure I was well taken care of. They even had assigned me an AWESOME bariatric bed. I expected back pain while in the hospital and didn't have any whatsoever. I would rate this hospital 5 stars, an A+... two thumbs up! please feel free to contact me is you have any questions.

The staff made went out of their way to meet all of my needs from nausea and pain to giving me extra apple juice because I tolerated it the best. My mother stayed with me and the staff was wonderful to her as well, making her comfortable which also allowed me to worry less about her.
