University Hospitals Hospital

i work at uh and i love my job,and the hospital in general,i really like my surgeon and his staff,they are very concerned about you and your total well-being,thank you so much dr.jasper,cathy,peggyand kristen

She was very sincere and made me feel like she really cared about me. She told me what I HAD to do to make this tool work for life. She was upfront and I think I made a good choice.

Had private room with a good view. Big bed and chairs were nice

SHe knows her stuff...Very honest & caring.

I had a decent stay, the nurses were overworked. It got noisey when the interns or residents were out in the hall doing their thing. I really don't have any complaints.

I noticed that the nursing staff was very shorthanded. The one night shift nurse was very hurried and pulled out my IV because of her hurrying around my room.

I was treated like a queen with a private room and very personalized care. My husband opted to stay with me, and the gave him a cot to sleep on too. Dr. Hallowell and his staff are very caring people. Here, I had gotten a rash on my nose from my CPAP machine for sleep apnea. Dr. Hallowell and his staff were so concerend about it, that evening, I had a new mask. The Bariatric Staff at University Hospital are expectional people. If I had to to it over again, I would choose this hospital and surgeon again. I only wish I could find the right words to desribe how awesome my experience was.

I did not feel like just a number. Other hospitals in my area advertise on the radio, which totally turns me off. They were very compassionate to my needs.

All bariatric patients have a private room which was very nice. The nursing staff was always very courteous and helpful.

I am surprised at the comments so far. It looks like people either like it or really hate it. I thought my experience was great. I was encouraged to not skimp on my pain meds. I was also encouraged to get up and move. Not easy to do, but VERY necessary. The nurses were great and I really like my surgeon. There are some bill-boards around Cleveland regarding the St. Vinnie's program. However, I'm glad I was able to have my surgery at UH. I still receive great support from the post-op group and get a LOT out of the meetings.
