I have to say that my experience at Tobey Hospital was Awesome. The nurses were great I had to many to list but one sticks out more... her name was Lee and she was with me as my nurse for 2 shifts and I just really liked her she just seemed so compassionate and really cared about my well being. Her advice and the way she so clearly went over discharge papers and procedures with me was amazing she didn't rush no matter how long it was going to take she wanted to make sure I understood completely. I commend her for her great personality and the way she cares for her patients.
Tobey hospital is very good at what they do the nurses made sure you were comfortable and well cared for. Of course they were in there everytime you fell asleep for vital signs but it was a good experience the whole floor i was on was dedicated to bariatric patients so you never felt out of place...
The hospital was wonderful, staff was very helpful and nice. They were very good with responding to my needs durring the stay. At first I was discouraged about having to share a room with someone, but it actually turned out for the best, because she went through the surgery the same day and time as I did, and we were going through the same recovery steps at the same time. But overall, I give the hospital, staff and Dr.Kruger all the best rating I can, because my experience was wonderful.
I had my laproscopic RNY gastric bypass here on 3/2/10 and then I needed to have my gallbladder out on 12/1/10. The surgical staff and recovery nurses are amazing. My experience was second to none and I would go there again if needed for surgery. The only down fall to the hospital is that there are no private showers in the rooms.
