Carraway Methodist Medical Center Hospital


Excellent! Several of the nurses in the unit had taken special courses on bariatric surgery, and were very helpful. All rooms are private, so my sister was able to spend both nights in my room on a chair that folded out to a bed. The entire program is excellent from pre to post op, including a pre-op "info day" with presentations on what to expect, nutrition, and respiratory therapy. At all times I felt like the staff I was working with cared about me as a person rather than just a patient.

The nurses on 7th floor were wonderful!! I think they were very nice, cooperative and willing to meet my needs. I had to ask for pain meds, but that is what we were told to do, and as soon as I asked, they would bring it straight away. They checked on me several times, especially when I didn't call them for anything, so that was really nice, but I was OK for most of the time. Overall I think this was a great stay!!
