Not very accomodating at all, I don't think they deal w/ many bariatric patients and it shows. Trays were left for two days, I awoke to find a tech eating his lunch on a biohazzard bin in my room. The room was never cleaned properly and anything I asked for never materialized (it was only a fan). The nurse CHARLES NEVER called my Dr. when I asked. I was left screaming for help on at least two occasions b/c I could not find the phone. Overall one of the most horrible experiences, please reconsider using this facility.

They seemed great- the whole hospital. the only big complaint I have is that the first night- probably the worst night- right after I had surgery- they had the heater on instead of the air conditioner- I began to sweat in places I didn't even know I had... it was gross.

I was in Same day surgery center from staff to parking everything was great. The staff was very helpful and responsive to my needs and questions. The noise was to be expected because they are a medical center, so that was not an issue for me. I would recommend this center to anyone.

The nursing staff was excellent. Shirley and Jenn were my two primary nurses for the 2 days that I was in the hospital and I can't say enough about them both. They truly made the stay a pleasant one. Both were extremely helpful and responsive to any needs that I expressed.

I have to give most of the credit to my wls surgeon, Dr. Faulkenberry. He made sure that I had excellent care. He even checked up on me on 4:50 am one morning! I would recommend him to any one wanting a good surgeon.

Basically this is a very good hospital. I had a bad experience receiving my first pain medication.

Especially now that I have had my RNY at Innova hospital in San Antonio I realize how great care can be and would not recommend ST. Davids to any one unless you absolutely have no other option.

Post surgery I was taken to the hospitals IMC ward due to some excessive bleeding. The care I received from those nurses and everyone else on that staff was bar none the best I'd seen from any of the 5 hospitals my wife has been in. I truly cannot say enough praise about my IMC experience.

How-ever when I was moved to the hospitals 5th Floor the experience I had for my second night (specifically 11 p.m. - 7 a.m.) was no where near what the previous 24 hours where.

Had an issue with having had getting stuck trying to lie back down after returning from the restroom, being unable to move to adjust myself or the bed. I was in reach of the call monitor and it took 3 calls (a total of 20 minutes) for someone to come and simply adjust the bed. Now this in mind would have seemed petty (I know hospital wards can be busy)but the fact the I was right at the nurses station, and I heard several nurses jaw jacking about personal/home/party matters right outside my room for 2 -3 minutes right after my calls for assistance. Those voices included the one that answered the call for help each time, and when I asked why it took so long the nurse replied, I'm sorry no one told me....

This all said with the change of shift's so did the level of care once again. So this honestly was an isolated incident, with one of staff of many.

The total level of care the was excellent.
