Tucson Medical Center Bariatrics

I had my baby at TMC in June 2013 and also had to go to the ER (several times) before and after. We were tended to quickly and professionally. Also, the lactation consultants helped me a ton! Everyone was so knowledgeable and was very nice. The nurses helped me a lot as I was a new mom and was scarred each time we went to the ER. The staff put us at ease and helped us through the tough times. I would highly recommend them! more

My son has had surgery at TMC twice, the first time was a few years ago and the second time was 2 days ago. Our first surgery visit was horrible, many problems with the staff, the room, service, even the surgeon, I could go on forever. This visit however was amazing Hince the title surprisingly amazing. Since our last surgery they have changed everything! They have a children's center that is incredible. The staff were all respectful, not only that they were nice and actually liked helping the children. They are trained to work with kids specifically. My son has developmental delays and they were so good to him. Before surgery they had a child life specialist play with him and get him emotionally ready for the surgery. They kept us informed every step of the way. The staff answered all of our questions without getting annoyed (and trust me we had a lot lol). I cant tell you enough how awesome they were. I would recommend them to anyone. I was so worried about TMC due to our visit a few years ago but let me tell you if your kid has a surgery scheduled or your looking into hospitals- Go to Tucson Medical Center and don't stress about it anymore. You will be in good hands. more

The only thing was good is that i didnt have to wait long to see a Doctor...when Dawn Bauman NP saw me she put on her gloves like a normal routine, when she saw my feet she didnt bother to look at them she didnt touch my feet with her gloves. I had no gloves on and had to move my own toes so she can see the pus because i couldnt open them myself cause they were so swollen and red. I felt she grossed out cause she took off gloves and said its athletes feet. She didnt even ask for me to do labs or nothing. She said i had to put on foot cream which i was already was doing that at home. Why would i go to a hospital if i didnt think it was serious. She mis diagnosed me! i had to leave to mexico with in days because i wanted a second opinion because the infection was getting worse. In Mexico the doctor diagnosed me with "cellulitus" gave me antibotics not just creams...my infection was so bad it was getting all over my body up to my face i have pictures of everyday progression. It really makes me upset that I did not get a right diagnosis, not enough medication, more pain then anything, waste of time driving to a hospital just to tell me to do what i was already doing...rubbing foot cream ...and to top it off a BILL that i will be paying for a while.. and not only that i have a whole week not being able to work now who is paying for this? me right? I regret to even step my toes in that hospital. more
