Norton HealthCare Bariatric Center Hospital
Norton is a fine hospital with one of THE FINEST MEDICAL STAFFS in the country. Unit nurses were outstanding. A few concerns, keeping in mind that I'm a doctor's child and was brought up NOT to complain about medical things unless there's a SOLID MEDICAL REASON: I rated privacy "poor" because this is a teaching hospital. Over a hundred residents were marched through my room over the course of three days. I got tired of being awakened every hour to play guinea pig. I'm all about advancing medicine, but I finally complained. The recovery nurse also talked on her @#!($#@^%& cell phone and screamed every time my O2 monitor went off, unlike the girl who sat with me after my gallbladder and chatted quietly to bring me out of the anaesthesia haze. The anaestesiologist was an arrogant asshole who gave me a drug to which I reacted, because he didn't pay attention to my allergy history and wouldn't take my concerns seriously when I tried to talk to him pre-op- this was the OPPOSITE of what happened when I had my gallbladder out at Norton in '00. I was VERY firm but respectful with this guy and he STILL didn't listen to me. What's one more dead fat chick, I guess?
