Question:
How is Vanderbilt University Hospital care?

I'm having my open rny on June 26th, I would love to hear from anyone who has been there and done that. How are they in post op pain control and care?    — Debbie E. (posted on June 7, 2001)

My daughter goes there as a gentic patient and I have never had any problems from Vanderbilt. The doctors are the best.

I think the Vanderbilt nurses where the worst ever when it came to care for my mother after her surgery. They where suppost to come check on her ever so often, but never did unless she rang for them, but then when she rang for them it took atleast 30 minutes for a nurse to show up or one wouldnt show at all. I was so upset about this that i stayed with my mother to help her all 5 days and nights. Well, her pain was controlled though, she had a morphine pump to take care of that. When I have my gastric bypass done ITS NOT GOING TO BE DONE AT VANDY!

Vanderbilt treated me like a queen. Never took them more than 2-4 minutes to respond to my requests. Contact me at [email protected] if you want to know more.
