I am a return referral patient from Dr. Schnell and Dr. Briggs. I would like to first thank Dr. Briggs and Dr. Schnell for being great physicians. Sheila and the wound care team were all great. I had to call Sheila on the weekend to answer a question and she was very receptive to all my questions and very helpful. Jamie and Debbie in Special Procedures are also really great at what they do. They took care of my central line. The anesthesiologist is really good as well I didn't get nauseated after taking anesthesia this time. Nurse supervisor is Julian and Melanie are both really good - they took care of my concerns in a timely manner. Nurses Laura, Melissa,Tony, Eugenia, and Kenya took really good care of me. Nurse tech Delila, Carrie, Sabrina and Mary on nights, Duncan were also really good. Duncan brought coffee for me every morning. Rehab department has been great to me they know their jobs I've been here twice and they have done a great job PT and OT are awesome at it. At this hospital 90 to 95% of the staff are friendly and family oriented everyone seems to be happy the cafeteria it's convenient and you don't have to leave to go out and get food by my case manager has been very nice and provide a great service. According to staff and how busy they are they normally answer call lights within 5 to 10 minutes. Sometimes they just come in when the light is on to check on me. If this is Infectious disease, Al, takes care of antibiotics and has done a really good job. Sometimes my pain is really really bad even throbbing so I need pain meds late night, nursing staff has been doing a really good job in bringing my pain meds in a timely manner when I really need them. Sometimes I like to take what I call a wheelchair tour. I just wheel myself around the hospital for exercise. We've been please no issues on this trip I like to thank all the staff at kindred Hospital bay area for taking care of me on this visit thank you all very much.
