Patient Reviews
Apr 23, 2022
Love the doc and the anesthesiologists. When a nurse sees your blood pressure and says “whoaaa” they should be fired in my opinion. The center put a small adult cuff on my forearm, causing incorrect blood pressure. No socks, no wheelchair, no drinks but water. I understand cutting costs but no cuffs? Super important. I went from 220/112 to 126/80 in the car. Unnecessary stress. Yes, my cuff is good. Just watch your care until you are in the procedure. It can be sketchy. No call to check on me either. They always did that and said they would but didn’t. ****REPEAT multiple times if you have joint implants. I had to call my hip surgeon that evening for antibiotics as I wasn’t given any for the biopsy. Won’t be back (hopefully) until quality changes. They had the waiting room packed and no sanitizer in sight.
