Holzer Weight Loss Center Hospital


I had a nurse who was incompetent and allowed me to endure pain for 2 hours, before I threw a fit and demanded pain medication. She had not listened to my statement regarding my IV, thus allowing it to infiltrate and then she removed it, because she didn't want to have to redo it. Then I was put on liquid medication which she was very slow in administering. I did however receive better care from all of the other staff than I have ever received anywhere else. They genuinely do care about their patients and made my stay very comfortable.

I was in ICU for about 11 days, very ill. My only criticism is that my husband should have been allowed to spend more time with me (while in ICU)to help me cope with the fear of the comorbidities. Keeping him away from me was not in his best interest, either, because our separation added to his anxiety. But overall, I would strongly recommend this hospital and particularly the ICU staff.
