Ascension St. Vincent - Carmel Bariatrics Hospital
This hospital was small, i've been to all the hospitals in Indianapolis including the top one, Methodist.
St. Vincent Carmel blew them all away in terms of care, kindness, response to my needs. I didnt get a chance to really ask for anything. Its like they read my mind and knew what i wanted/needed before i could even ask. It was wonderful. They even brought me ice and water before i could "need' it. They get TOP SCORE from me.
My experience with Dr. Inman was good. My personal opinion of her was she was very direct and informative. She encouraged questions, and gave specific answers to all questions asked and even gave us answers to some we forgot to ask.
She seem through and I felt she knew what she was talking abou. She used drawings to help me understand the surgery more, and went through each type of surgey and explained each one and how they differed. The only real negative I felt was a little rushed afterwards, and would have preferred to talk to Dr. Inman rather then her P.A.
So far her office staff has been more then helpfull and informative. I wish I could have had a little more one on one with her, but I understand with the busy schedule she has it is difficult.
She said this surgery will work if you as a patient use the surgery as a tool and follow your aftercare program well. The after care so far seems very good.
She never sugar coated the risk in any way, she made it know the risks are real and are to be considered by all!
So far I am happy with Dr. Inman & her Office Staff & St. Vincent Bariatric Center.
I love Dr. Inman's straight forward approach. She's been given a talent and the tools to help people and that is what she does. Her staff was very helpful and never seemed annoyed at any of my calls. At my original consultation I was at first a little overwhelmed by the # of other potential patients in the office. I felt sort of like we were being "herded" for a moment. However, after meeting Dr. Inman I realized that I was simply one of several people interested in the surgery. I'm extremely pleased w/ all of my interactions w/ Dr. Inman before my surgery and after.
