"From the moment I came in for surgery all the staff I was around treated me with kindness, understanding, respect, and professionalism. I was never in pain the nurses were quick to answer my calls and were regularly checking in on me. The hospital is beautiful and very clean, and I was lucky enough to have a room of my own after surgery. My husband was allowed to stay with me the entire time, and they would have brought him a cot if he wanted to stay but he had to go home to our son. They didn't kick visitors out right at 8pm they have a pretty lenient visitors policy. Every step someone was there to talk with me before surgery and afterwards. I was so happy to be able to have this hospital for my surgery."
"My first impression of Dr. Takata was that he cared about me as a patient and about making sure I had all the information I needed before surgery. When I went to the hospital for my surgery the staff was excellent. While waiting in pre-op room I met the Anesthesiologist Dr. K and he was so nice :) as were all the nurses. Dr. Takata came in to see me right before surgery and I told him how nervous I was and he made me feel better. I didn't even know I had surgery till I woke up in my room. Dr. Takata saw me later that day and said everything went great. I also got to meet the surgeon who assisted Dr. Takata and I am sorry I can't remember his name due to the post-op meds and recovery from anesthesia, but I do remember he was very nice. All my after care is structured through Scripps Clinic Center for Weight Management , which also includes a support group meeting once a month. I am so glad that I had Dr. Takata and the whole team from Scripps Clinic Center for Weight Management to give me help and information. And I can honestly say I am happy that they will still be there for me to help. Nurse Betty and Nurse Jessica are excellent help and great patient care. I felt informed and taken care of. "
