Fresh Start Bariatrics at Riverside Methodist Hospital COE Hospital
I had a good experience. Just about every one of the 83 people I had contact with was wonderful. I only had two "bad" incidents, one with a tech who forgot me for 45 minutes, and one with a respiratory therapist who set my c-pap wrong and wouldn't take my word from it. But out of the MANY people I encountered, these were the only bad incidents and they were human error and I forgave them :)
I was very excited to hear they were going to do WLS at Riverside. I have always been treated extremely well there as a patient and every one else I have been in contact with. The facilities are excellent and the entire staff treats you as a person-not just another patient. All of the nurses and tech were very plesant and helpful, and took great care of me during my stay. I have nothing but positive things to say about Riverside.
Riverside Hospital was great. We had a hotel room the night before surgery from the hospital and was taken by shuttle to the hospital the next morning so we did not have to worry about parking or the fees for parking. Riverside gave us the room because I lived more than 50 miles from the hospital. The pre-op nurses were great as were the nursing staff on the surgical floor.
