The Methodist Hospital Hospital

Very clean, staff was fantatstic

I had a private room after I was out of recovery.

they were very helpful

The staff was great and took very good care of me the time I was there. For a hospital stay I really enjoyed it.

The staff and facility was excellent. I could not have asked for anything better.

Excellant hospital with very trained staff and professionals

This was a day surgery, and my only complaint was that they moved my surgery up 2 hours and didn't tell me, so when I was checking in I was actually supposed to be going into surgery. So everything went really fast. I loved my anesthesiologist, she was awesome. And the nurses were great, funny and supportive. I was very impressed!!!

Methodist in Houston is the absolute best in the business! They continually strive for excellence and it shows!

After surgery, a room was not available for me. I remained in recovery for hours (until about 9:30 p.m.) until a room did come available. When I was moved to my room, it was not even on the bariatric floor. Dr. Davis was NOT happy about this. When I finally arrived at my room, I did NOT receive a very warm welcome. Instead, I was made to feel as though I was intruding. I wanted to walk (very important!) and the nurse refused to let me walk, even though I had already walked twice after my surgery earlier that day. The volunteer even told the nurse, himself, that I had already walked and wanted to walk again before going to bed. (Yes, I felt THAT good!) The room was not prepared. The bed was in the middle of the floor, blocking the bathroom door. (I did not even realize it was the bathroom!) While standing with my I.V. pole, waiting for the nurse to walk with me, she turned to look at me and said, "Are you just going to stand there? Sit down on the bed." (My husband had already gone home because we did not think I would ever get a room and it was getting late.) I actually walked by myself to a different hospital wing asking for help. When they would not help because I was not "their patient", I asked them to call security. I felt very alone (for the first time in my life) and I did NOT feel safe and secure. There was NO ONE TO HELP ME! I am sorely disappointed with The Methodist Hospital. I thought it would be top-notch since people from all over the world go there. The physcians may be great, but some of the nurses have pitiful attitudes. I will NEVER forget my experience at The Methodist Hospital as long as I live. And, by the way, I am not the cranky person it may seem from reading this post. The story you just read is absolutely true. Life is too short to be a complainer and I was "high on life" from just having had gastric bypass surgery which took 1-1/2 years preparing for. If at all possible, go to University General Hospital and the surgeons who practice there for your bariatric surgery!

I felt very comfortable and well cared for during my short visit.
