Madison County Memorial Hospital - Madison Doug Cantrell: Mr. Jarod Mincey treated me for fractured foot, after several months of suffering from Achilles Tendonitis. He is extremely compassionate, totally focused on his patients, has much grace, & very well mannered. Ive never met a provider w/ such empathy for patient & family of his patients. Hes an amazing human being! Sincerely, Pamela Diane Ferrell.
HCA Florida St. Lucie Hospital - Port St. Lucie DeeNYce 228: I had my total knee replacement surgery there and from the very beginning, everyone was very professional and helpful. The day of my surgery, i never once not knew what was going on and what would happen next. I have problem veins and when I told them about my veins, my concerns were met with a level of experience that I truly appreciated. The IV insertion was not painful at all! And that eliminated any anxiety that I might have been feeling that morning. The communication between myself and the nurses, the anesthesiologist and the doctors left me feeling very relaxed and comfortable. They gave my son, who came in town for my procedure, a sense of relief he needed. And to the pt specialist, the ot specialist, and nurses and staff after my surgery, I want to say thank you for making my stay there extremely comfortable.
Lakeland Regional Health Medical Center - Lakeland ben browning: This hospital is very much a business about making money and Healthcare is not the 1st priority. The waiting area for care is small compared to the mall/shopping area set aside for commerce. The song playing right now is Beat It by Michael Jackson. This hospital is the epitome of what is wrong with the health care industry in the United States. The patient is the last priority. The building itself is named for one of the owners of Publix grocery stores, which I guess isnt bad of itself, but it in fact showcases the divide between rich and poor even more in a place like a hospital/restaurant/shoe store.
This is not to say the staff at this business arent great or dont care about their patients, its just obnoxious antld almost tragic that Im here with my mom for a cardiac procedure to see what will be required surgically to prolong her life and right now the nurse has to shout the patients name over Nirvanas Smells Like Teen Spirit. Seriously bad taste, especially with how the public feels about the abusive and obscene health care industry right now in America.
