Swedish Medical Center (COE) Hospital
My nurse's were great, espically Maria & Sue.. There are more that i liked but i can't remember they're names. I was scared going into this, but i came out ok.. Getting prepped for surgery was good.. I said i was scared & afraid i was going to die, The 2 guy's & girl that was there all put theyre hands on my shoulder gave it a little rub & said no you'll be ok, gave me a smile of reassurance & poof i was out.
I found my stay there very comforting. I had nurses that were very attentive to me and answered all my questions and even just talked and encouraged me. It made it alot easier to get up and start walking right away. It was also very nice to have my fiance be able to stay in the room with me. They even got him a bed to sleep in so he was comfortable too. I really loved how friendsly they were. Made the stay very pleasant
Each nurse I had during my stay, was very informed about gastric bypass, and they answered all my questions, and double checked my food when it go to me to make sure it was sugar free. All the nurses knew of my surgeon, and how he wanted his patients treated, and did everything possible to make me comfortable during my stay. It was an excellent experience.
